Customer Reviews
In the area and wanted to try something new. The drink was recommended by the waitress…it was unique but very good. We just ordered a burger and salad with salmon, which were also good. I would like to go back and try some other drinks and dishes. The only negative was probably the small two person tables.
Westsiders has a modern, comfortable space. The atmosphere is updated but not overdone, making it a good fit for both casual drinks and a sit-down meal. Service was steady and attentive throughout the visit. The cocktail menu offered a good and interesting mix of choices, and the ones we tried were pretty good. On the food side, the fried chickpeas and fried Brussels sprouts stood out as especially good—crispy, flavorful, and a nice match with the drinks. Parking nearby was straightforward and convenient, which made the visit smooth overall.
This was our second time dining here. Our first visit was excellent both the food and drinks were great. On this visit, the food was still good; however, the duck was noticeably saltier than I prefer. Unfortunately, the service made the experience unpleasant. Our server, Autumn, seemed inattentive. I had to ask for silverware with my entrée and eventually took a fork from a nearby table. Since it was my birthday dinner, I had planned to order dessert but decided against it. I hope additional training can be provided to improve the overall guest experience.
Delish food & unique dishes! We got the beet tostada for an app and it was a perfect pairing of earthy beet + creamy avocado. I got the scallops- they had fried polenta, which I wasn’t so sure about at first, but it was a nice compliment to the dish. My partner got the double smashburger. He said it wasn’t a classic super thin smashburger, but it was good nonetheless.
We visited Westsiders last night during their dinner rush, and the place was buzzing with activity. Despite the crowd, we were seated promptly, which was a pleasant surprise. The bar staff provided fast and courteous service, and our food arrived quickly. A major highlight was my girlfriend’s salmon—she described it as bright, extremely flavorful, and cooked to perfection. She absolutely loved it. My sandwich (Bánh mì), on the other hand, was a bit of a letdown. While the bread was toasted perfectly, the pork lacked flavor and felt under-seasoned. The sauce was also underwhelming, and I couldn’t tell if the issue was the lack of flavor or just not enough sauce. I spent some time pondering this but couldn’t quite figure it out. Our cocktails were a strong point—her swizzle and my punch were
