We came at 5. They only had 6 tables taken. They told us a 10 minute wait. But there was 30+ tables open! So we waited 15 minutes, not sure for what. Other parties came after us that got told the same thing. Wait 10 minutes. Dude for what just seat us at one of those 10 empty tables in that row. Now for the food. We ordered Korean chicken, it wasn’t gochujang, I actually wouldn’t describe it as Korean in any way. It could probably best be described as American style Chinese chicken. The sauces… super Korean…. Honey mustard and ranch. Oh yeah that’s very Korean guys. Ok then we got the fish tacos, came with fricking franks red hot and sour cream lol so basically American tacos.

Came for happy hour. Pretty cheap drinks with a good selection. Outdoor seating was perfect for the weather. The loaded guac was really good and good value. The chicken tenders were also really good, but at $11 for three of them, I won't get them again.

Great atmosphere. Very friendly staff. Large selection to choose from.You just feel at home sitting here, the ambience and staff make you feel right at home.Definitely worth the stop if you find yourself on Pearl Street in Boulder. I will be frequenting Next Door often.

Had a wonderful dinner at Next Door!Under new management (and better for it!), they have revamped the menu and it is so great!We got the Crispy Cauliflower, the 14er Club, and the Yojimbo Bowl. All were great, but the Crispy Cauliflower was by far the favorite of the table.Service was incredible - we were greeted outside, greeted inside, mentioned by name, and even had chats with the owner who visited our table. As someone who works in the hospitality industry, this type of service was next level. Shoutout to Olivia who was serving our table - she was on top of everything, gave wonderful recommendations, and even went all out on making us feel welcome.After a previous experience years ago left us feeling lackluster, we are both excited for this revamp and are looking forward to coming back soon!

Went into ND Bar as a late afternoon snack. Had excellent service and great food. We enjoyed the Fried Chicken sandwich, a double burger & fries and the Thai salad. Loved the laid back atmosphere and the Stormtroopers everywhere. Great drinks!

As you walk down Pearl Street, you have so many options for food. So, why did we choose this one? Well, It just has a unique style and vibe that stands out. Maybe it is the subtle Star Wars and anime artwork that adorn the walls. Maybe it was the the tables and other decor. Maybe it was the unique menu items. What it was, we were glad that we chose this restaurant. We recommend the sticky pork buns and grilled cheese/tomato soup combo. This definitely is a restaurant that we would return to.

The wait staff were very tentative but we found the food to be very bland/very little taste… every dish was missing something. Such a bummer because I thought the Kitchen Next Door used to be very good.

Great visit to ND Street Bar! It was my first time there, but it was a fun, laid back atmosphere and there was a ton of food options - something for everyone.My group of friends ordered multiple dishes to split, so I tried quite a few. My recommendations: the fried chicken sandwich was probably the best I have ever had - perfectly cooked and sooo tasty. I had never had sticky buns before, but the steamed sticky pork buns were also delicious and I would get again. Lastly, who doesn’t love birria tacos?! So happy those are on the menu as they are one of my all-time favorite dishes.All of the dishes were good portion sizes and came out super quickly (but still fresh!). The wait staff was also super friendly!

I want to marry that fried chicken sandwich. And in our wedding, the slushies would be the bridesmaids and groomsmen.In all seriousness, this place is a gem. I love how the street food is global and the vibe is ?Only downside was the Brass Monkey slushy was sold out the first time I went. Second time they had it & it was delish.

Update: stopped in for brunch, still amazing! Honestly I’m surprised the over all rating for this place isnt higher. Dylan was a great server, perfectly attentive, and recommended the French toast sticks which were wonderful! Not overly sweet and perfectly crisp on the outside. We also split the chicken biscuit and thought it was very good as well. The spicy honey was subtly spicy, the chicken was moist and tender, and the biscuit was a great consistency as well.—-Great food and drinks! We were here during happy hour. The chicken tacos were excellent and larger than expected. The cheeseburger sliders were wonderfully flavorful and the beef was not over cooked. Bun was buttery and perfect. We also got the chips and guacamole which was excellent- a lot of the times guac will taste old but this batch was clearly fresh and seasoned just right. The happy hour margaritas were great as well, and were a good strength - and tasty! We will definitely visit again.

Fun atmosphere, delicious food and great service. We sat at the bar, and Jasper waited on us. He was friendly and the drinks were good! We'll definitely be going back. Love the all day Happy Hour Wednesday too!

At this point in my life I have eaten well over 100 crispy chicken sandwiches here. Every single one of them have been nothing short of divine. I have yet to find a contender anywhere else in the world that could stand toe to toe with ND’s chicken Sammy.This place is basically home. Great for any night of the week whether I’m just trying to catch a quick bite or am going to hang around for a while chatting with friends.Thank you ND for always having a warm and inviting atmosphere, great happy hour & delicious food.✨Karl

I went in for the first time today and the food was great. I had a great server, Jasper, he recommend a few good apps. I loved the Nashville Hot Chicken Sliders. I had the Pozole as my main course. The Margs were solid as well.
