I had dinner at High Side in Fairfax and everything was excellent. The Jumbo Pork Belly Rice Bowl was rich and flavorful, the Garlic Noodles with Grilled Shrimp had just the right amount of seasoning, and the Beef Noodle Soup was comforting and delicious. All the dishes tasted fresh and well-prepared. The atmosphere is casual but lively, with a great selection of craft beers that go perfectly with the food. The staff was friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even better. Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for authentic Asian flavors in Fairfax. I’ll definitely be back

A brewery with some good food! A friend recommended this place for its Taiwanese street food, so I decided to give it a try. I sampled as much as I could, and while some dishes stood out, others didn’t quite meet my taste—just my personal opinion. The Dan Dan noodle sauce and beef pancake were excellent, with spices that were spot on. However, the beef noodle soup felt like it might have come from a central kitchen package. The pork bao was great, with a good size, but the pork belly had too much fat for my liking. The Three-Cup Fried Tofu had a sauce that was overly sweet, and the tofu cubes could have been larger to achieve that crispy skin with a soft texture inside. The lemongrass chicken had good flavor but was unfortunately a bit dry. Overall, we enjoyed the experience—it was a mix o

Foos was quite good. Nice selection of Taiwanese street food with an interesting selection of beer. Garlic shrimp noodles were creamy and savory. Salt/pepper chicken tasted good, but could have been crisper. I would Def go back. Parking is a bit thin and the access road is not easy to see, but don't let that dissuade you.

A must visit for anyone passionate about good food and outstanding beer. The staff is incredibly insightful and provides great suggestions. The take on street food generates unforgettable dishes and the tap selection alone is worth a trip. There’s also an exciting array of four pack options to go!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Marian Chou · Aug 2025

The music is too loud; plus a lot of drinker; the portion is soooo small and not that Taiwanese street food; When I demanded some lemon slices for my server, she told me that they did not have; then, I asked for lime pieces, she told me that she was not sure but would check.She finally came back with lime slices. (considering they have bar in the place, how hard to get Lemon or lime slices?) The beef noodle is too salty and spicy. The portion is very small; The whole place worths the mention is UBE cake, not too sweet or expensive and maybe filipino dessert. We will not go to the place again. The next table couple had to wait a long while and demanded some water. Our water refill was slow, too.
