Prey Brewing Co.

Apr 9th, 2024

I've now been a couple of times. I really like the place a lot...Vista needed exactly what this is...slightly upscale with some style. The burgers are fantastic. Great fries. Broccoli appetizer is excellent. Birria tacos were decent. Drinks are great. My only downgrade is the fish tacos. Bland with little flavor. Needs a special sauce added and then they'd be great. I would advise them to go over to Tacos Don Paco and order their fish tacos and emulate what they're doing. Overall really glad to have Prey in town and wish them success. Parking: Parking is available on the street and nearby but it's not plentiful. Not a negative, but be prepared to look for parking or walk a block or two.

Had a couple of drinks here the other day with a buddy and we even ordered a couple of food items off the menu. First off I noticed it was a bit warm inside, though I was wearing a long-sleeve sweatshirt. Seating inside the main room is minimal but they do have a whole other side of the building with tables and chairs that appeared to be empty, so that might be overflow when needed. We sat at a two-person high-top table. I ordered the Lychee Guava cocktail. It was okay but not very sweet. I didn't taste much gin or lychee unfortunately. My buddy ordered a seltzer which tasted as most seltzers do. I also ended up ordering a beer, which only came in a half pour...which was due to its limited availability? Something to keep in mind, but a half pour was what I was looking for at that moment, so it's all good! We also ordered the Oxtail Birria Fries and Pork Belly Bites. Both were outstanding. The pork belly came covered with a lot of toasted peanuts and the (hoisin aioli or peanut?) sauce around it was delicious. The oxtail birria was very tasty and the fries had the adequate crunch a dish like this requires. When cutting into the sunny-side up egg on top, it golden yolk ran over the potatoes and mixed with the birria gravy - oh so good! Chatting with my buddy was a bit difficult. The voices echo in this room very loudly and it's hard to carry on a good conversation if its busy inside so be aware of that. I can't imagine what it's like to watch a game here but I can see one losing their voice lol. Can't wait to come back and try a different cocktail and more food. I see the reviews are great so there's a lot to unpack here and it all looks delicious. Parking: Street parking exists, but its limited.
