Novo Brazil Brewing

Adriel was our server and he took great care of us, very attentive and offering suggestions. We have been coming here for a few years and all servers have been great.

By far the best service EVER.. I had experience a wonderful service I was choking on a steak and all the employees rushed for assistance in the Heimlich maneuver and they had and ambulance and fire department show up in seconds. I was very much appreciated the service they provided it. Also want to include the other guest that provided assistance with my rescue and I don't know who the nurse was but I thank you once more again for this great service. Also the Food and Drinks were delicious.. And thank you to the waiter that called the 911 and calming down my husband. 💛👏🏻

Love coming to this spot! Great food and drinks. Highly recommend the Sunset Slam kombucha and Carne Asada Fries or Nachos - enough to share for two. The staff is super accommodating as well with small and large parties. 10/10 recommend. Ariana is the best!

I love visiting this place The food is very tasty and the service is amazing. Every time we get to enjoy our food with Sandy as our server our experience is the best. She has a positive attitude and it’s very attentive.

Working in the San Diego area from Minnesota and swung in to try Novo - Otay Ranch! Our server, Sandy, did an amazing job. She provided insight on food and beer selection! Love the atmosphere! Would highly recommend stopping in for food and drink.

Had an amazing experience at Novo Brewhouse in Otay Ranch! Sandy was our server and she was absolutely fantastic. From the moment we sat down, she was welcoming, attentive, and super knowledgeable about the menu and drinks. She made great recommendations, must try “La ola dragon fruit kombucha”10/10!! She checked in on us at just the right times, and made sure everything came out perfectly. You can really tell she cares about her guests and takes pride in what she does. The service alone made the experience even better. We’ll definitely be back and hope to have Sandy as our server again!!

I love this location it’s very clean the atmosphere is always great. The staff is always friendly but i especially enjoy having Sandy as my server. She always greets me with a smile and is very attentive throughout the whole time I am there. I have been there for special events and even though it gets super busy she manages to always check in. She’s very friendly and a hard worker if you happen to stop by this location hopefully you’ll get her as your server. 5 star experience!

Novo Brazil Brewing in Chula Vista is hands down one of my favorite places. From the moment I walk in, they always treat me well and genuinely make me feel at home. It’s the kind of place where they actually know your name, which says a lot. Sandy is especially amazing — always pleasant, friendly, and incredibly accommodating. Leo is (the Man) awesome too, and honestly all of the servers are top-notch. The whole team creates such a welcoming vibe that keeps me coming back. Highly recommend if you’re looking for great service and a place that feels like your local spot.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing service — Sandy is the BEST! We had an awesome experience at Novo Brazil Brewing – Otay Ranch, and a huge part of that was thanks to Sandy! From the moment we sat down, she was incredibly friendly, attentive, and genuinely happy to take care of us. Her positive attitude made the whole visit even better. Sandy was super knowledgeable about the beers and the menu, gave great recommendations, and checked on us at just the right times without ever being overbearing. You can tell she truly cares about the customers and loves what she does. Great food, great beer, and outstanding service. If you come here, ask for Sandy — she’ll make your visit unforgettable. We’ll definitely be back! 🍺🙌💛

Novo is hands-down one of my favorite spots to watch a game. The atmosphere is always lively, the TVs are perfectly set up so you never miss a play, and the crowd brings great energy without it ever feeling chaotic. What really sets this place apart, though, is the staff. The service is consistently friendly, attentive, and welcoming. You can tell the team genuinely cares about the customers and takes pride in what they do. Shoutout to Sandy who is always attentive and friendly.

Exceptional all the way around. This has become my family’s favorite local eatery. Their food is diverse and delicious. Drinks are best in class beers and kombucha. But the highlight is the service. Always greeting us with a smile, warm and helpful. We have two little ones and we never have to wait long for a table or service. Ariana is one of our favorite hostesses. She always makes sure we are taking care of and finds a great spot in the restaurant for us to watch the games and watch our kids in the play area. Love Novo Otay Ranch!

I want to express how grateful I am for the incredible service and hospitality I received at the Otay Ranch location. After a last-minute cancellation from another venue less than an hour before my birthday celebration, I reached out to Otay Ranch in a state of panic. Even though they were also busy, the staff immediately told me to come in and assured me they would do their best to take care of us. And they absolutely did. They welcomed my group with kindness, professionalism, patience, and genuine customer service. My party of over 30 guests was accommodated smoothly, and everyone had a fantastic time. The food was great, the drinks were amazing, and the overall experience far exceeded anything I could have expected last minute on a Saturday night. This location truly saved my birthday. Instead of the stressful disaster it could have become, the Otay Ranch team created an evening filled with fun, good energy, and really positive memories with my friends and family. A huge thank you to the entire Otay Ranch staff for going above and beyond. They have absolutely earned a loyal customer in me — and in everyone who attended.

My kids love their wings (naked), fries, their Gelato and play Area! We always have a great time. We got served by Mark & Sandy, great service, friendly and always checking up on us... We all love it here! 🍺🕹

We had a wonderful experience thanks to our waitress Sandy, She was kind, patient, and always smiling. She made us feel welcome and comfortable throughout the meal. Great service

Sandy took care of us and made sure we were satisfied with our order throughout the visit! She played pick-up when other staff forgot our requests! Great experience!!

This place is a straight-up disaster when it comes to customer service. We showed up around 5:30 p.m. when it was calm, and somehow the service was already slow. By 6:30–7:00 it got busy, and the staff completely fell apart. We finished our food and still sat there for almost TWO hours waiting for our bill. That’s ridiculous. I ordered the rib eye medium rare, and whoever decided to serve a steak on a cutting-board style plate should never plate food again. The center was cooked right, but that board sucked every bit of juice out of the meat like a sponge. They basically turned a decent rib eye into dry, overpriced beef jerky. For what they charge, it’s a joke. Honestly, they should be paying me for wasting my time and appetite. Hard pass on ever coming back here. One of the worst dining experiences I’ve had in a long time.

For starters, the entire restaurant is covered with TVs, giant ones. Thats the only decor in the entire place, giant TVs on every wall. All showing the same game, no variety. And when you look around, it’s quite noticeable that the football game is more important to the staff than actually doing their job, which is to serve customers. I had to go to the bar to fill up my own water, twice, even after asking for water. Our food came out one plate at a time over the span of 25 minutes, each brought by a different server. Each plate was cold and not appetizing to look at, let alone eat!! By the time our fifth guest got his plate the rest of us were done eating. The person who took our order, never even brought us a single plate of food. We saw her only when she took our order, and when she brought the bill. We asked for silverware twice as our plates were being delivered. The food was absolutely subpar. I paid $20 for the avocado salad. It was not even close to being worth $10. We paid $17 for a bowl of yucca fries that were undercooked, cold and barely a serving size for one person. This place went down by far as one of the worst dining experiences I’ve ever had and I feel absolutely wrong for having given them any money at all. It’s obvious that the only thing that’s important to them is serving beer and watching football. The steak plates were ridiculously over priced, tough to chew, cold and over cooked. They might call it top sirloin, but it’s not, it was chuck roast at best. The food was garbage, the service was garbage. I am Never going back there again!! Save your money and ho to a restaurant that is actually trying to serve quality food!!
