“ Good fish tacos and it is always fun to be by the river blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah ”

“ What's not to love about Swabbies! Drinks are great, food is good, service is great and the views are amazing! Went there to see the Prince Tribute Band and they were so amazing! ”

“ Tacos and Wings are always great. Service is great especially when Josh is working. Plenty of seating depending on the event and the time you arrive. I recommend you arrive 30 min prior to start time. There is limited seating on the small balcony. Main seating is down in the sand. Four person tables and chairs with backs or lots of picnic tables. We prefer the smaller tables with the back support. Always a good time at Swabbies. ”

“ Enjoying warm weather never was better than at Swabbies! From cover bands (today was a Chicago cover band!) to a variety of beers on tap (and more in bottles) and cocktails to pub style fare, Swabbies - on the Sacramento River is a lovely spot for locals to chill and hang out on the weekend with family and friends. Down the country road, Garden Hwy, the path leads you alongside the Sacramento River. At the bend - near Elkhorn Boat Ramp, is Swabbies...a local hangout. With its beach vibes, from the Pirates of the Caribbean and Capt' Jack Sparrow statues to the sandy pit area before the music stage, where local cover bands provide the ambiance and groove, this is truly a fun easygoing local joint that's unpretentious and relaxed. Seating is all outside under thatched roofed huts and covered umbrella or patio seating. Servers are friendly and efficient. I tried the guacamole and chips. The chips were fresh made and sprinkled with Parmesan - reminding me of a JimBoy taco. The shredded beef taco was delish, too. One was perfect for a light lunch along with my draft beer. An afternoon at Swabbies is always a good choice. ”

“ Still a fave and flavors I crave! Came home for a short time and was hungry when we landed. Called some tacos in (after checking my notes to remind myself I live for shredded beef here) while renting the car and was off to the races. Food was ready when I arrived, lady was super sweet and filled my bottle for me as well. Get the green sauce!!! It makes the tacos really pop. When I eat here I swear I use a bottle lol. Surprisingly all the times I went when we lived here, my mom never went! She LOVED the tacos and is still talking about them. This ladies favorite words are, "it's ok". We did chicken and shredded beef. She loved and is still talking about both. She asked how they're so good! The Parmesan? The flavors of the meat? The green sauce? Idk but they're some of the best tacos goin. Wish I'd had time to sit and take in the scene. Flavors are the exact same they've been all these years and I'll be back and craving them in the meantime. ”

“ Swabbies is a super cool, chill hangout spot along the Sacramento river. Best place for a drink and bite to eat. Came here for a reggae concert, it was a blast! They have the best bloody Mary's. Their tacos are good as well as their chips and salsa. Our drinks were dangerously delicious. Their staff is super friendly and helpful, service was superior. It is a tad expensive but worth it. ”

“ Food: Order the wings and fish tacos! The wings were fried and crispy just like I prefer. And the fish tacos were delicious, big, and filling. Worth it. Service: service was prompt and check on us frequently. I love that they left a pitcher of ice water on our table on a hot sunny day. Ambience: outside benches but a lot of seating. Sandy beachfront vibe but next to the river flow. ”
