I went for Wednesday Burger night and for three burgers my bill was $46 I don't see how this is a special burger night this is regular price. Boo on the price of a burger ? at a local dive bar.

When I walked in I felt very welcomed! It is family oriented, has very good food, and the service was excellent.

It’s a small establishment but it makes you get acquainted and meet new people!

Went here to get late lunch on a Thursday. I loved the small, cozy vibe. Employees were very kind and the chicken parm sub I had was probably the best I’ve ever had (and that’s my thing). The chicken was perfectly seared and very lightly breaded - I was skeptical at first, but omg it was delicious. Also, the fellow patrons were very friendly and the staff interacted with them which is rare these days. Can’t wait to try brunch.

You can feel the good vibes from this place as soon as you walk in. Excellent service. And the food was amazing. The potatoes were perfectly flavored and super tender, I could have just eaten an entire plate of them. 10 out of 10 would recommend!

Simple grilled cheese with French onion soup. It doesn’t get much better.

Hometown favorite! There are so many things to say about this place, not so big but always packed, my suggestion is to go during lunch. I have had the Asian wings and quesadillas both fantastic. What is most popular when we visit is the spaghetti you get a serving platter size this enough for a family of 4, NO JOKE! but very good every time. Drink are very strong. Still wanting to visit for brunch. Street parking

I’ve been here a few times and the service has consistently been excellent! So far we’ve tried a few variations of the nachos. Between the Greek and supreme nachos, I’d lean towards the supreme. It looks like they have a great brunch meal, so I will absolutely return to try that. This is a great neighborhood spot to try, with an excellent
bar. Sidewalk has excellent drink prices, we ordered a bottle of Pinot Grigio for $19!

The food is good. The spaghetti and quesadillas are two recommendations. My experience there was ok the atmosphere the night I was there was a little roudy but they got everything under control.

The menu on their website is incorrect. The prices are all wrong.

This is one of those legendary Fan District watering holes and dining establishments. I met an old friend there on Sunday to have lunch and catch up. The place was packed. I had the Sidewalk Sub. It was excellent although I felt perhaps the deli meats were a little over the top in terms of salt. Great craft beer or cocktails if you're in the mood. Waitress was a little sassy with me, but I guess that's to be expected. Great vibe overall. Lots of energy and opportunity to people watch if that's your thing.
