An advocate for local fresh meat, a casual watering hole for local residents that are in the know, local limited butcher counter, and a very respectable bar with a unparalleled adult beverage menu designed for a huge customer capacity the B side current space is too small for. For all its uniqueness, the meat, salad, and food entree selection can be rather expensive compared to restaurants outside the walking-distance neighborhood. The pork chops and burger were underwhelming. The cocktail and beer selection is a delight especially given the competition in the area. The dessert menu has room for improvement. The beef fat and regular fries are the most memorable food selections I would return for. So the ratings is 4-stars but the price is really driving my decision to drop a star since the cost is just really high for my taste and what I can find for the same similar food entrees.

At first I was intimidated by how unique the menu was, but this food was incredible. I ordered the birria ramen and it was fantastic. Also ordered the smash burger and my husband really enjoyed it. The beef fat fries are so crispy and delicious. the beer menu is extensive and great as well. Highly recommend a visit.

Service was interesting— great people, great attitudes, but they messed up our order 3 times and messed up the table next to ours. However, the food was so perfect, and we didn’t care. I loved the blistered brussel sprouts, the smash burger was perfect, the beef fat fries were amazing, the sauces were good, steak was good, the challah French toast was okay— the Mother’s Day special cocktail was good, the double IPA was perfect. The staff were friendly and one guy gave my toddler a high five. It was a pleasant experience overall and we would come back again.

We visited this place a while back and enjoyed the food. The burger was particularly juicy and tasty. The cocktails were also delicious, and overall, we left feeling satisfied. We plan on returning soon to try the burger again.

when I first approached the restaurant, I tried to enter through the main door which was locked. I attempted this twice and no one said anything to me. I wasn’t sure if the restaurant was even open because the windows were very dark and the door was locked. I then saw , a sign in front of another door of another business with B Side’s name and realized that I could enter through that door. I ordered the gnocchi, identified as a main dish and it was barely warm. It was served in a cast iron like skillet and I asked for it to be reheated because I would think that a food served in the cast iron skillet would be at least hot. Additionally, my dish did not look to be a main dish. It was much smaller than my friends appetizer order of wings and the dish in my opinion was not worth $20. i’m not sure if it was my servers first day, but she rarely checked in on me and my friend and I would have to remind her that the credit cards were in the sleeve pocket and I felt that she kept forgetting us even though I don’t think it was that busy. other than that, the servers were very friendly if they remembered that we were there I really enjoyed my cocktail and I appreciated my main dish not being charged.

We booked this for dinner. We arrived at 19:15 and we ordered a couple of cocktails and food. The cocktails were great and unique to the restaurant. The food ordered as starter and mains all came together in just over 10 minutes. This meant we had to eat everything all at once which felt rushed. The brussel sprouts and filled potato skins were very tasty. The confit duck dish was potato heavy and the duck was not confit in the traditional sense. The rotifried chicken with hot honey sauce was tasty but would be better with another texture on the side to break it up. The chocolate brownie was the highlight of the meal and was big enough for 2.

Visited this past weekend and had a good experience overall! Claire was a great server and treated us well. They were out of some of the main mixers for their popular Dia De Los Muertos cocktail which was a bummer, but I enjoyed the Love Street cocktail. They have a TON of beer/wine/cider options as well! The only negatives were the music was a bit too loud and the food (even appetizers) were pricey.
