Side By Side Kitchen Cocktails

Nice place to dine! Will be coming here more often when we are in town!

My husband’s and my meals were ok. My salmon was delicious but only came with 3 half fingerling potatoes. My husbands burger had way too much jam and the cheese was not melted. Our friend’s pasta was cold and not eaten. The service was terrible. We were rushed because our waiter was serving a big party!

I was excited to dine here after reading a recent article about the new chef who came from the White House. Some lady friends and I were talking about it and one of them warned me not to go, saying it was awful. I like forming my own opinions so I met a friend there for dinner. The front of the house staff was truly by far the worst service I’ve ever experienced. Ever one of them was either rude or negligent. From the older gentleman who was the Host, our server, the Manager on duty and the bar tender (who was bragging about quitting there that week to go to work at a new nearby hotel), we were both blown away by the lack of professionalism and attention. It is obvious the staff does not want to be there. There is a negative vibe. The back of the house is doing their job well. Dishes, flatware, glasses were all clean, and the food was very good. I hope someone who can make changes reads this and make some necessary and immediate changes. In the meantime, I will not return nor recommend this to anyone.

The menu was limited because it was a college football game weekend. What we had was good, just the full menu had some choices we usually enjoy.

Disappointing! We have been going to Side by Side for many years during football season and have always been very pleased with the food selection, quality, and service. They now have a VERY limited menu for football game weekends, (supposedly) because they are so busy. The menu is very limited with only three entrees and the food quality was just ok. We were there Friday night for opening weekend and the restaurant was almost empty which is probably because of the menu. We will miss dining at Side by Side, but we won't be back unless the menu changes.
