This place was recommended to me by a few people had the Smashy, which is a double patty, double cheeseburger sauce and pickles. This thing was amazing. Wasn’t the biggest burger I’ve ever had, but it was so so good followed that up with the Mac fries. These things were incredible. this place is great,good atmosphere s great service. I’ll definitely be back. Check out my TikTok channel for the full food review. shaneandersonhfx

Our new favourite burger place. The Smashie is so good! Cauliflower was a bit sweet but that is the sauce it’s in - was very good though. Garlic fries yum! Been 3 times now and we will be back!

The establishment is designed very well and the experience was 10/10.Great service, ambiance, food and beverages (the mimosas were spot on).The menu is simple, yet it covers all bases. I really appreciated not having to comb through a hundred options to find something I didn’t have to amend.Kid friendly which is a bonus :)Kid-friendliness: They had no problem whipping up a side plate to satisfy my friend’s niece.

Honestly, the food quality has significantly and consistently gone down. The Bucatini has always been my go to from here, the pic to the right is what they used to make (was really good), and the pic to the left is what they’ve recently been presenting, a really bland pasta that was once delicious. Would not recommend for take out.

Bucatini for pick up was bland. 0/5. 2 orders of bucatini - similar findings- zero taste. We got it when they first opened and it was actually bomb. Looks like it’s been watered down.

They make the most amazing gluten free chicken sandwich in the world. No one would know it’s gluten free. I even eat the pickles on it and I don’t like pickles but their food is amazing. I go here anytime I’m in Halifax. You can eat in or get takeout. The garlic fries are super yummy too and the side salad is so fresh and delicious.

The food was so yummy. Great portion size and you can tell they really care about the quality of the food. Lots of vegan, vegetarian options and gluten free. Finally the service was beyond great. Super friendly and helpful! ??
great food but best server ever. To find her just ask what wine pairs well with the tater tots. If she answers with a straight face… that’s her!

Side Hustle has a cool industrial vibe but suffers from a few predicaments:- Room is pretty loud due to high ceilings and reflective surfaces. I went with a group of 3 at a medium-busy time and we were almost yelling to hear each other.- Service was slow. As an ex-bartender I empathize because there's often stuff going on that guests can't see. But we were sat for almost 20 minutes and hadn't even put drinks in. That's no bueno.- $15 before tax and tip for a burger. Fries are an extra $5. I'm sorry but no.I can't rate the food because we ended up leaving. I'm glad others have had better experiences but it won't be a repeat for us.

Best cheesecake ever!

Excellent food, friendly staff, and a neat atmosphere.I rated staff 4/5 only because our first waitress was new and kept leaving when we were trying to order. That was rectified later.The atmosphere is very nice during the day, bright, lots of plants, etc. But at night it is incredibly loud to the point you cannot have a conversation with the person next to you without yelling (which makes it worse for everyone). This may be the vibe they are going for, but it's not for us. We will stick to lunchtime visits or ordering.Food tho was super yummy!!
