The Side Lot Reviews
I do not recommend side lot unless you're part of their club. Phil is too into "being the cool kid" to notice he's losing business. this place used to be good. dump now
Phil and other managers seem to play favoritism of their customers, & ignore you and your table if you’re not their friends or in their “in club” , this place has taken a dump in quality
Great place to end a day and start the weekend

The Side Lot is a hidden gem that offers a unique dining experience with a northern Wisconsin resort atmosphere. The menu is intriguing and features unusual options such as loaded tots, incredible pot stickers, and interesting sandwiches. The loaded tots are a meal for two, and the pot stickers are a must-try with their drizzled sauce and perfectly cooked crescents of flavor. The grilled cheese with candied bacon is also a standout, with generous and well-prepared portions. The B.E.S.T. sandwich, featuring a hamburger patty, is another option worth trying. Servers are kind and attentive, and beers are decent. The restaurant is pet-friendly, with a dog menu, and kids are welcome too. Many visitors say it is a great place to eat again, praising the friendly service and good atmosphere. The staff, including the bartender, are friendly and welcoming. Overall, The Side Lot offers great value, good food, and a welcoming environment, making Wauconda a destination for those seeking a fun and relaxed dining experience.
