We like Southside bistro but my recent reservation didn’t go as expected. Booked a table for 6 and wanted to add two more people on the reservation for a friend’s birthday party. I was told I was already at max and they cannot accommodate two more people to my reservation. I asked for a separate table and was told that was not possible. I asked the person on the phone If I should just cancel my reservation and book somewhere else and she agreed with canceling my reservation. Difficult to understand why a restaurant rather loose money than make accommodation for additional people on a reservation. Good food and atmosphere just make sure not go to with 6 or more people.

Worth the money, bathrooms were in a maze of workers coming and going from kitchen, pos stations, etc... hidden behind a calapsable wall.

It's an average place, not many choices of food, and some are gone early in the day. Keep in mind that if you want to try Alaskan salmon, come before 5 pm. Our food wasn't salty at all, but good otherwise.

Amazing meal as always. I love bringing our guests to Southside Bistro; service is top notch, food is consistently outstanding and the atmosphere is cozy and warm. We loved the duck, the Brussels sprouts salad, the rigatoni, the clams etc etc. everything was perfect! We will be raving about this meal until our next trip in'

Excellent food. Service and ambiance were very good. Deviled eggs, scallops and chocolate terrine were exceptionally tasty. Menu is limited but everything we had was prepared perfectly. Short wait after our reservation time.

Southside Bistro is one of our favorites for dine in or take out on the south end of town where we live. Wonderful food and attentive service. The ambiance is bright and lively.

We had the fresh seafood specials and a nice bottle of wine. Great service. ❤️
Great food and service. I had the troll caught king salmon. I eat a lot of salmon and other places do a good job with it, some don't. This was outstanding! It will be the new standard from which I'll compare other preparations. My wife had the skirt steak, also very good. The waiter was friendly and helpful, and had a great attitude. Overall a very enjoyable experience.

Visited Southside Bistro on 5/28/25 to celebrate a birthday dinner with friends. As usual, the service and atmosphere were excellent. I was looking forward to ordering the Angelhair pasta only to discover it was removed from the menu since the last time I visited. I ordered the Pomodoro pasta dish instead and it was just ok. This is the reason I didn’t rate the food 5-stars. Please bring back your Angelhair pasta.
