Food Scene
Great Indoor/outdoor patio with terrific food and an enormous selection of beer. Here's what they say: "Enjoy AH's addictive bar bites and delectable dishes on our garten patio or in the cool comfort of the tap room, featuring a rotating selection of small-batch artisanal drafts, prized local taps and craft wines. Our market-fresh seasonal menus and house-made ingredients are inspired by California bounty and valued local farmers, fishermen and artisan food and drink purveyors"
