Eureka! Claremont

When my friend and I ordered drinks, the staff immediately asked for our IDs, which we provided. They took our IDs to the back to verify them against a book. While I understand that our IDs were from out of state, I had previously visited this restaurant multiple times with friends without issues—my ID was checked briefly, and I was served drinks without any mention of cross-referencing with a book. When they returned with our IDs, they denied us drinks, leaving us highly confused. Other friends in our group attempted to order drinks after us and were denied without even having their IDs checked. We questioned the manager about this denial, pointing out that our IDs were valid. We even offered to provide a way to confirm our IDs using a scanner, but the manager refused to cooperate. Throughout the interaction, we remained calm and did not raise our voices; we simply wanted to understand why we were being refused service when we were sober and of legal drinking age. The manager then responded with a statement implying that if we wished to argue, we should leave, but otherwise, we should stop questioning and enjoy our meal. We were taken aback by this response. We then asked for our waitress and decided to cancel our order, offering to pay for whatever we had already received. She informed us that our items had been comped—was that some kind of hush money? I hold no negative feelings toward the rest of the staff, but the manager's behavior was clearly influenced by bias or racism. The treatment we received is indicative of the racial bias present in this establishment, especially reflected in how the manager spoke to us.

I subbed the vegy black bean patty in the burger. Holy mole! It's was fantastic. Crisp and perfect.

Had a burger that was good size and tasty. Meat was well cooked the way I like it but I asked for well done.

Beet burger is really good!! And the hazy IPA is also very tasty and refreshing... Great burger place to hang out with friends and family? Kid-friendliness: They have a couple of great options on the kids' menu?. The staff is very friendly and courteous.

? on point and the fried mac&cheese balls don't miss!
