Apps were pretty good, however, main course was poor! “Filet” was basically pot roast and the mashed potatoes were from a box...no taste. I'd go for tapas and cocktails but never for dinner...save yourself the money and disappointment!
Bravo! My husband and I came here for a date night, and everything was spectacular! Excellent service and delicious food! We had Brussels sprouts as an appetizer, and salmon as main course. All excellent! Gary is a great server. We will definitely be back! ?

First off I wanna say that this is a beautiful restaurant! The service is terrible. The waiter never asked what I wanted to drink! He just gave us water! Our reservation were made for 8pm but we didn’t get sat until about 8:30/8:45. We waited a very long time for our food and we could see it sitting on the back counter and our waiter kept looking at it passing it by! Another waiter was bringing our food to the table. I’d like to think money was stolen from my card because my receipt said a whole other price then what was drafted from my account! I’ve called and been up there multiple times for a refund and to watch cameras but the “Manager” has no access to cameras. He also said he had no access to looking at the transactions from the night before! Which is crazy to me if you’re a “manager/ supervisor.” Luckily I work at a credit union so I know how to handle the situation! Charges will be pressed against them!!! Please watch your bank account when dining there!

Me and husband went for vday and my reservation couldn’t be found in their system. I was told because it was done through Google that they weren’t accepting anymore since the week prior but I showed the host that I reserved in January. My reservation was for 7:30 we got a table at 8:15. I booked based off of the menu but found out they were only doing 1 to 2 dishes which is understandable but I was totally unaware. I feel because I didn’t have much to choose from I didnt get my monies worth. The steak and mash potatoes were delicious but I wanted to enjoy everything and didn’t. I might try them again because the place is beautiful as well as the menu had a few items that I want to try as well.

We had a party of four for Valentine's Day. The server was sweet and kind and trying hard, but it was clear management failed to adequately train her before throwing her in the lake to sink or swim. The menu was a single price, with two choices for starter, salad, entree and desert. Three of us were pleased with our steaks. However, the fourth person (my wife!) ordered the “Cauliflower steak”, which was no more than about $1 worth of a large piece of cauliflower, grilled crispy, with some cherry tomatoes. Her meal was over $60!!! It was embarrassing as a Valentine's meal and date at one of the nicest restaurants in town. No chef in their right mind should send something out like that and claim it is anything more than what a first grader could do. Very disappointing considering our previous good experiences!

The chef is from India. I don’t think he has experience with ordering inventory. He allows product to spoil without tossing it. He turns a blind eye to the consumers when he cooks expired items. Oh, the privilege.

I dined at Side by Side last night and thought the menu looked great! I decided to order the 6 oz filet cooked medium. What I received looked like a 4 oz filet that was well done. Some of it was so charred that I couldn't cut it. I mentioned that it was overcooked to the waitress and she just said, "I'm sorry". I got the small, overcooked filet, 2 pieces of broccolini and mashed potatoes for $44. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. It won't happen again!

I'm glad Side by Side reopened. We enjoyed our evening and meal. Steak and Salmon were our entrees. Both were delicious following our starter of brussel sprouts...the best I've had anywhere!
The food and drinks were great. I wish they had more of a selection on the menu but all in all great atmosphere and great staff. Parking was not great but still a good experience.

Service was very disappointing. Waited 25 minutes at the bar for the only bartender to take our order. Then we get seated and another 15- 20 minutes on water and another drink order. Food was prepared very well. They needed more staff.

Disappointed tonight. Only one bartender at the bar. They are very short staffed. Took long time at the bar as well as when we got seated. Only thing was that the food was great! They need to do better!

Fantastic new management. Years ago they had a angry little man named Patrick who made the place awful. Now however, changed for the better. All time favorite being the pimento cheese board.. I was weary when I saw the layout changed but I was not disappointed at all. It is amazing, I would say even better!Go and visit!

Wish I could rate it higher. Dinner was good. Service was good. Went to the bar after spending $475 on dinner. Fine with that. Was charged $38.50 for an angels envy old fashioned. Grew up outside on NYC and have traveled the world. Shocked with that price.
