Rios Brewing Company — Restaurant in Grand Prairie

Initial impression was okay, cool, and atmosphere is okay, casual like a sports bar. Self serve water from a water cooler type dispenser. Greeted by a waitress who explained to order by scanning the QR code on the table. That seemed like a good way to do it, also was the method to put payment info on there to start a tab. We were a party of four. We ordered an appetizer of chips queso and salsa, four entrees and four drinks. We made sure to order everything on just one phone to get everything in at the same time and keep the tab on one ticket. Everything was brought out of sequence and in long intervals. 10 minutes in, one entree shows up, 5 minutes the appetizer, then another ~10 minutes our drinks show up (good thing we had self serve water). Waited another 10 minutes and the second entree was delivered to table. About 8-10 minutes later I see the server come out of the kitchen with two entrees which definitely looked like our two burgers but she stops at another table and asks if one of them is what they ordered and she leaves one with them. She came and delivered the other one to our table and saw that we were still missing one entree to which we told her that we are missing another burger. She went back, it was another 10 minutes then finally returned with the last plate, and the order was wrong, had fries with it instead of onion rings that was ordered. She offered to go get an order of onion rings. I told her not to bother. We didn't want to wait any longer. Two of us were already done eating. Overall, service sucked, food was meh, beer was okay, prices were set for a venue of higher quality/service. This place is on our no repeat list for sure. Don't waste your time and money. Or go find out for yourself, maybe your experience...

Voodoo Brewing is located in Grand Prairie off the 161 and adjacent to IKEA that is in the Epic shopping plaza.

I dropped by for a quick bite and a drink and was blown away from the interior design and setup of this local brewery. Inside, there are ample chairs and tables to sit at along with a bar. I was greeted with a warm welcome and smile by the staff as I found a seat at the bar. The beer menu was plentiful and labeled on a colorful chalkboard, stating the beer name and classification along with the ABV%. They had a large flat-screen TV playing hockey, and the food menus were easily accessible from your seat. The food menu had plenty of options such as burgers, appetizers, and pizza to choose from.

I went ahead and ordered the Buffalo hot wings and had the fried pickles with a side of ranch. For my beverages, I chose a lacto cooler, which was a sour berliner Weisse and a West Coast IPA named good vibes. Both drinks were outstanding and complemented my Buffalo wings very well. The wings were sauced nicely and had a nice kick to them, and the celery and carrot sticks made everything better. The fried pickles were deep-fried golden brown to perfection and were crispy and tart giving them an impeccable flavor.

The staff provided second to none customer service and was very attentive and eager to assist in any way to make my visit enjoyable. I'll definitely be back again to try different beer and maybe catch a trivia night they hold weekly and attend a live band they hold on weekends. There are happy hour specials throughout the week, and they also sell beer to go. I'm looking forward to coming back to this fine establishment and exploring more food items along...

We are visiting from out of state, and were excited when we saw a brewery online. The vibe was okay, but the service was horrible. We sat at the bar and there were two women behind the bar, one of them seemed to have no idea what she was doing. We ordered burgers and were told there’s “no such thing” as medium well. Maybe that’s just not a Texas thing? Never in my life have a heard that you can’t make a burger medium-well. Whatever — food was good. My boyfriend liked one of the beers in his flight. Nobody was overly friendly and the one waitress wouldn’t even make eye contact with us and didn’t once ask if we were good , but it still didn’t ruin our time. The problem came when we wanted to leave and it took almost 40 minutes for someone to even focus on us enough for us to ask for our check. One of the waitresses spent the entirety of her time talking to a regular and cutting fruit (right next to us, mind you), and the other came and got us boxes and then her and the general manager both spent well over 10 minutes helping customers try different beers. Didn’t know this was a two person job. We could have interrupted and asked for help, but when people aren’t making eye contact and rushing past you, or deep in conversation with others, it makes for a frustrating and difficult situation. We aren’t from Texas, so I guess it doesn’t matter in the end, but I’d never return here based off the attitude...
