Honestly, i really wanted to like this place because i live walking distance, but wow the service was horrible. The cashier/bartender with long the black hair and silver rings started the interaction off so rudely i just brushed it off. BUT after i’ve ordered 3 things and they STILL are being rude, condescending, and giving me dirty looks i realized this person is just rude and miserable! I still am shocked by how mean they were being. Food was greasy and my nashville burger came with a tablespoon of oil UNDER the burger overall i’m not coming back bc why am i paying to have someone be rude to me and hand me a plate with oil.

Not the best experience, the service wasn’t great.. food was okay, nothing to come back for. I felt like this place is trying to be edgy and cool by being kinda mean with their service. Not sure what that’s about.

Bartender took my legal ID, claimed it was fake and immediately folded it in half. No scan, No UV, just saw I am from out of state and broke my personal property. I am from the other side of the country and this ID is the only way I can make it home to see my family in a few weeks. For context, I was served liquor at this establishment 3 hours prior, am legally of age to drink, and have been served personally from this exact same bartender using the exact same ID recently. When I atleast asked for my (now folded) ID back she looked cluelessly to her coworker to say “I don’t know what to do with this” while continuing to fold and unfold it as if the entirety of where I’m allowed to travel and drink at was not on the line. She refused to give it back until the police were mentioned. Incredibly unprofessional and illegal.

Went for drinks here with my friends, they terrorized my friend about his ID that is from New Jersey, the bartender with the nastiest attitude accusing my friend of having a fake ID , bending the ID in half literally damaging personal property we almost called the cops because SHE kept trying to keep the ID mind you that’s not legal, I requested a UV test to look at the holograms on the ID she refused on the account they didn’t have one, the worst service I ever had so far here my friend has been here so many times his ID has been accepted by other bartenders on the same establishment but she wanted to have a power trip and prove the point that ID was fake. Do not come here if you have an ID out of state.
If sidewinder management is reading this the bartender working on October 14 at 12:41 AM.

Just felt like we weren’t regulars so we weren’t cool and none of our ten smiles and polite gratitudes were ever returned by the GM. I’m sorry her staff called out but for $60 I will only come back here for the Route 66 trailer but whoever says this place is friendly must be a favorite, I don’t expect my butt kissed but she was just so indifferent it made me as a hospitality expert uncomfortable . Also they got rid of the brisket bbq platter and smoked bologna so even the food has been changed to where if you don’t like this history or location or know the staff you d9nt matter here

Want a cocktail, can or bottle of beer and a dressed hot dog? You will if you come here. Sidewinder has a special place in my heart and makes a great hangout on cooler nights, especially with co-workers after a long night at work.

Sidewinder is a retro western diner style bar with 8 seats inside at the bar and plenty of outdoor seating. They offer various snacks, easy drinks and a young neighborhood vibe. 🌵

We went to Sidewinder on a Sunday, right at 5 pm. It looked like the staff had just arrived - the counters/menus were not even cleaned from the previous night. I understand the dive bar vibe, but still there is no excuse for lack of hygiene. The ventilation system/outlets were also visibly filthy.
On the positive side, the food was great. We had the brisket and chicken sandwiches, loaded onion rings, and fries. All the favors were right on point and the prices were reasonable.
We sat inside since it was a cool afternoon, but I would recommend the outdoor sitting areas which looked very cute.
