Machete Beer House - National City

I enjoyed hanging out with friends at this restaurant. They have a great selection of IPA beers for fans, and the bartenders are friendly. Personally, I'm not a fan of IPAs and prefer lighter beers. I tried five different beers and found them to be decent, although I was hoping for a creamier taste. I gave them 4 out of 5 stars because I wished they had more stout options. The atmosphere is cool, the women's restroom is nice, and there are seating options both inside and outside, as well as at the bar.

There was no menu, no soda, the music was too loud even though there were no customers, and the bartender was a bit rude. It has potential, but it's not the right place for me.

Yesterday, I went to a great place to have a few drinks. They were celebrating their 7-year anniversary and had tacos for sale. The beer was delicious and it was just an overall fantastic place to enjoy some drinks.

I went to this restaurant on a busy Saturday night. They only had one dark beer option, but they had a decent selection of other drinks. The customer service was okay, but I had to ask the bartender for service instead of it being offered. The staff seemed more focused on themselves than the customers. However, the tacos from the food truck outside were amazing, particularly the tacos from El Villasana. They had a variety of tacos and salsas that I will definitely be going back for. The staff inside even brought in pizza, so maybe they were tired of tacos. I didn't take any pictures, but there's always next time.

This taproom in National City is fantastic. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and the person who created the artwork for the beer list is very talented. Although I don't visit National City frequently, this spot is now a must-visit on my list. The beer selection is excellent and the people are great.
