    Perhaps the best pasta I have ever tasted - seriously great house-made pasta with excellent tooth and perfect sauces. We had both the Cacio e Pepe and pasta al Limone. The caprese salad had amazingly flavorful tomatoes -and in December. Such a great meal, with creative cocktails and cocktails as well. Worth the visit.

    It was our first time to Three Bears Brewery & Restaurant. It was recommended by a friend. We were not disappointed. We were at the Bar on the upper level. The Bartender Jarod took very good care of us. Explained everything we asked of him. We enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. I had the Big Kahuna pizza and my wife had a French onion soup. The food was very tasty and hit the spot. We will definitely come back and recommend it to all our friends.
