The Grid Bar & Grill - Kings Beach, California

The food was average. I really wish I can say it was great but it wasn't. I had the fish and chips with coleslaw. The coleslaw was lumpy and drowned in liquid. The fish batter was ok only. My daughter has the chicken fingers and she ate only half a piece out of three chicken pieces.
The buffalo bites and the burger were pretty good. The cheese pizza was as expected.
What made the whole experience not so good was the wait. They have a good amount of customers, not a complete full house but somewhat busy. They only have two waitresses to handle both the bar, the dine in customers and the to go order. The two ladies were working nonstop. It took long to order food, to get anything else and even longer to get the bill to pay for the meal. Parking was also a nightmare.

This place is near and dear to me. For 10 years now this establishment has been delivering an unbelievable burger and fry experience each and every time I visit. I remember the first time I sank my teeth into their southwest burger. I lost my mind. I consider myself both a burger connoisseur/snob and this burger cannot be beat or replicated. The fries remind me of McDonald’s fries but better. For context I’ve been nearly 25 times and have never been disappointed. My friends, family, wife, and kids all approve too!

First, I don't like giving negative reviews. There is no joy in doing so.
Four orders that took 40 minutes to serve, including similar orders of tacos, 1 burger, and one Philly cheesesteak. All four orders were not up to our expectations, which were not high. The fish tacos were unremarkable, and the tortillas were stale. The burger was also forgettable, along with shoe string fries, which were crispy to the point where you couldn't tell if they were potatoes fries or other stuff fries. My Philly cheesesteak also came with over-crispy fries, but the low-light was the sandwich itself. It was served in a white bread that was disintegrating before I grabbed it. I had my sandwich with a fork. Philly will be happy when they read this.

The view of King's Beach across the street is beautiful. We sat on the bar outside facing the lake. The food was very good! We had burgers, grilled cheese, chili and onion rings. The fries were very good too. We would definitely come back here.

Terribly disappointed.

They had an adequate number of servers, but something was amiss.

We were welcomed and invited to take a seat anywhere we wanted and a server would be with us shortly.

We were not approached to have our orders taken for 20 minutes, we ended up having to go inside to put our order.

We ended up placing our order for take-out, and the order we received was not what we had requested.

Has the typical style of a bar, but there is a good menu to choose from for food. You just go in and sit wherever you want (you do not need to wait to be seated). They have menus on the tables and when you are done, you can go up to the front to order. The food is great tasting. There was no line when we walked in, so it's a perfect place if other places are busy. They have a lot of different sports games on the different TVs. Parking in winter might be tricky, there are areas along the street and in a small street adjacent to the bar.

This restaurant is amazing! I had the best pizza I’ve ever tried! Not sure if it’s because I was tipsy haha
Speaking of tipsy, their raspberry margaritas are so strong and good!!! I couldn’t even finish the entire 64oz pitcher with my partner !

Came here looking for a nice easy lunch in a comfortable setting for a dog and a toddler and this fit the bill. The outdoor patio was nice and spacious for our family. It was nice that they had TVs all around to watch the football games. The server was quite friendly and made sure the dog got some water too. We ordered the turkey sliders off of the kids menu, but dang, it was a big portion. Our toddler was super happy with the french fries and had a couple bites of the sliders. It was a portion that would probably make most adults happy. I got the crispy fish sandwich with a side of slaw and was pretty happy with it. It stayed crispy pretty much until the very end, so the last 2 bits or so the tartar sauce had made the batter and bun soggy but it was still delicious. Cole slaw was nothing special, but it was light and tasty and a great complimentary side to the fish sandwich. Cool spot for watching sports and grabbing some good food and a beer.
