Commonwealth

Fried buffalo chicken and garlic fries...It's THE BEST sandwich in the CV. Every time. I would die if they ever closed or took it off the menu. 10/10.100%

Wooow. It's been ages I've been to Commonwealth. My go-to casual/hip spot in downtown Modesto is usually Churchkeys but they had some sort of plumbing problem that apparently we couldn't be seated there. Strange but I mean it all worked out. I was there last week. Food was amazing. I tried a smashburger and it was a tasty burger. Meat was nicely cooked. My partner got some sort of chicken sandwich (I forgot the name sorry) and he said he enjoyed his a lot. The cauliflower wings are freaking huge!! Super tasty too. They also have a spiked Tampico drink and that too was good. I came on a Friday night. Yes it was busy and noise level was moderate. The only thing that was short a star was my fries were overcooked, and I'm not sure why but the ketchup tasted weird to me. The ranch is great though.

Went today for breakfast. The place is way too LOUD for one. Took our order for 6 people. 30 minutes later 4 people got their food. 10 minutes later I had to go ask where mine was. They gave it to someone else. No attention to detail. Run very poorly. Owner needs to get the place together. The food was just ok. Potatoes were over salted. Wait staff seemed overwhelmed. Would never go back.

First timer! Came here after visiting the children's museum. Walked in and was greeted immediately. The menu was great. They had so many food options, including a menu for kids. Side Note: Guy Fieri came here in 2015 and signed a serving tray! It's on the wall. So cool!I ordered the M80 with fried chicken and garlic fries. The fries had the perfect amount of garlic and the M80 was delicious. I wish there was more because it was soooo good. For beer, I had the Nitro Stout. It was good but combined with the M80 made me so full. Amazing place. Highly recommend.

The Staff! Balanced! Clear minded and have energy to engage customers with courage and are in synch with their environment!

Commonwealth is a nice place that serves a very good selection of craft beer and for the most part lunch items. It is quite good.You order at the counter and they bring your food out to you. The servers are very nice and the entire staff seems pretty happy. We were very comfortable there. The place is super clean, including the bathrooms. It is not large, but I bet it can get crowded. It was not when we were there for lunch. Their craft beer is excellent, but what we really wanted was a decent lunch. We were able to get that at Commonwealth.It is not the very best in Modesto as far as lunch, but if you want craft beer and lunch this is the place you need to be. All of the food we had was very good. We had burgers that were cooked right and nice and juicy. We also had a variety of tacos. We really liked the chicken tacos. The prices are fair.Their garlic fries are super good. We also loved their onion rings which they make there. The batter is wonderful.We were very happy. Have the best time.

The food was great! It was a bit too loud for a date brunch.. the game was on and we couldn't even have a conversation.

This restaurant has a great location going for it and fortunately we managed to get a parking spot and a table for the 8 of us . Seating is mostly high top and they were able to accommodate our big group without having to move things around . Next great thing is the amazing bear selection on tap - there was something for all the diverse taste preferences. I immediately jumped to get Russian river as I love their beers. The food has to be ordered at the counter and since I was ordering for all 8 of us , it took a little back and forth on my end but the staff was very accommodating and let me take my time as not all our friends were present while ordering .It didn't take too long for the food to arrive and almost all of us got our entree at the same time . My pesto chicken sandwich was dry as a bone , the fried parmesan on top was unnecessary and just there for aesthetics. I heard the same sentiment from everyone who got a chicken dish. Others seemed pretty satisfied with their food. Overall , I think they are a solid place for a meal if you are in the area.

Nice little taproom downtown Modesto to grab some protein and carbs. Indoor and outdoor seating, with tables, high tops, and bar seating available. I got the OG American burger and house chips. The chips are to die for but the burger was eh. It was meat, cheese, and bun, which is probably my fault for not reading the menu more closely, but it wasn't much to write home about. The service was top notch though. Very knowledgeable beertenders and fun, engaging staff.

Food is good. Service good. Restroom terrible: water puddles on floor. Door hinge broken. Pls fix and clean up.
