I have been to SideTrack many times, and I always have a great experience there. The service is excellent, they have a great team of people who are friendly, attentive and very responsive. Our waiter, Jesus was excellent! Every meal we have had has been delicious. Generous portions and reasonable pricing. They have seating inside and a couple of nice covered patios outside. I highly recommend Side Track for a great dining experience.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this place!! I have been coming here since they opened. The staff has always been amazing, efficient, friendly, and warm. Half the time I bring my dog, which is amazing because they offer an outdoor patio and welcome family dogs (like every other place in pleasanton :) and the other half of the time I go inside . Both areas are nice, welcoming, clean, and enjoyable. Their food is amazing! I’ve never had one issue with any of their dishes. They sometimes have the smoker plates available and they are soooo good! They have the “smoker calendar” QR code on their menu which is super helpful. Everything on the menu is great too! My son loves the sidetrack signature burger, which he gets every single time! See you again very soon sidetrack!

I thought this place was gross. Number 1, with the patio seating there were a lot of dog owners. They didn’t do the best at controlling their dogs and a dog next to us kept coming over and licking us. Number 2, the servers would all stop and rub and pet the dogs and then handle food. I would guess since most of the servers were doing this on each trip out to the patio with a food delivery, I doubt they were washing their hands in between each trip and then handling food. I won’t go back. Pretty gross. I have half the mind to call some sort of health inspector.

Fun, well-managed, family-friendly restaurant. Great patio!

Servers here are often young high schoolers and can sometimes be a bit inexperienced, but they always try hard and do their very best. And they are all super friendly. We appreciate that!

Managers and Owners are there often working the floor, running food, bussing tables, you name it, and they ALWAYS go above and beyond to make the dining-out experience fun, memorable, and comfortable. It’s so nice to see owners doing hands-on type stuff
it’s quite rare these days in the restaurant biz!

The kitchen crew works incredibly hard and they put out consistently good, elevated pub food, from burgers to smoked meats; from grilled salmon to fish & chips; from interesting appetizers to large entree salads. Food tastes consistently good and is fairly priced.

Restaurant interior is super clean. Can get a bit loud inside but it’s always fun and lively.

Great beer and wine list too. And
they have Athletic Brewing Run Wild non alcoholic IPA (one of the best “craft” non alcoholic beers currently on the market). Thank you for carrying this, and thank you for serving it with a glass! It’s the little things.

Solid choice for a family spot that all ages enjoy. Keep up the good work! The city of Pleasanton is lucky to have you.

Had their signature burger and some garlic fries. One of the best burgers I've ever had! Service was warm/friendly and we ate outside on a nice day/was great. Wasn't a fan of the interior atmosphere so glad for outdoor seating, heaters available too! Thank you, drove far but will be back! 👏👍👌💝👋

SideTrack Bar + Grill is the absolute BEST place to go in Pleasanton! Excellent food (their burgers, the Cubano sandwich, and the cobb salad are among my favorites) and exceptional service. As an added bonus, Todd, the owner, supports our community like no other, through Tips For Change fundraisers, raising money for our schools, and more. Don't miss this place!!

We had an event after a memorial service at Sidetrack and can’t say enough good things. Todd and everyone that helped us were amazing. The food (big kudos on the cauliflower), the atmosphere and service was incredible. We were in the Angela Patio on a rainy night and the patio was cozy with the heaters and the perfect place to have a special event. Thank you Todd.. everyone was so kind and you all took such great care of our family! I would recommend you to everyone.

Good food, and a pretty varied menu. Great weekend brisket every other weekend in the fall. I wish there was better sound absorption inside so it wasn't quite so loud.

We had a blast at their Octoberfest! We also have gone to NYE, and just for lunch or dinner. The seasonal salads are really delicious, and I love the pulled pork sandwich.

The coconut shrimp were HUGE! We always enjoy the ahi avocado poke and seared ahi salad. Tonight, we had a burger and the absolut pasta. We ask for it to be extra spicy!

I went to a very nice October fest

I come here to eat solo or with a group because I can't get enough of the Hangover burger, garlic fries, and chocolate milkshake.
My go-to for lunch or dinner.
