Reviews
This was our first time at The Side Car and we were really pleased. It can be tough for me to find classic bar food that still works with being gluten free and mostly plant based, so I was thrilled to see both an appetizer and an entrée that fit my needs.
The brussel sprout appetizer was fabulous, though be warned, it’s spicy. I love heat, so it was perfect for me. My entrée, the new vegan enchiladas, was also great. They were flavorful without being overly heavy, which made the whole meal feel satisfying but not too filling.
The rest of my family raved about the Detroit style pizza and the wings. We will definitely be back. The service was spot on, the food was enjoyable, and while the atmosphere was loud, it was still manageable for a fun family night out. Best of all, the prices felt reasonable, especially compared to many places that feel a bit overpriced for a family dinner.
Highly recommend!
Got their brunch special with duck (which is absolutely delicious), a veggie burger, French onion soup (urgently needed in this weather), 1 cocktail and 2 desserts. Total came up to $77 before tax and tips. Great deal. Totally worth walking half an hour in 20 inches of snow for.
The gnocchi was pillowy and rich without being too heavy, and the birria cheesesteak was such a creative twist — juicy, flavorful, and seriously addictive. We started with the mozzarella appetizer and the artichoke & spinach dip, and both were perfect for sharing (although I didn’t really want to share). And the elephant ear cinnamon rolls? Unreal. Warm, gooey, and absolutely worth saving room for. I’m still thinking about them.
Shoutout to our server, Brooke, who made the whole experience even better. Attentive without hovering, super friendly, and gave great recommendations. The espresso martini she suggested was the perfect finishing touch.
10/10 recommend, can’t wait to come back!
We ordered the spinach and artichoke dip and mozzarella appetizer to start. We then had the gnocchi with pesto and white beans and the birria cheesesteak. We then finished it off with the elephant ear cinnamon rolls with an espresso martini for dessert! Every single dish was outstanding! The gnocchi was perfectly cooked and flavorful, the birria cheesesteak was rich and packed with taste, the appetizers were fresh and delicious and the espresso martini was absolutely amazing — smooth, perfectly balanced, and a great way to wrap up the meal with the elephant ear cinnamon rolls- it was the perfect sweet ending to amazing meal.
Everything from the food, to the service, to the vibe was on point. I definitely recommend checking this place out — we’ll absolutely be back!
We loved just chilling here.
Staff is super friendly and food fresh and delicious
Caponata was good but the bread could’ve been toasted a bit more.
Three cut chicken was super good
BBQ mushroom banh mi was outstanding too.
Non alcoholic tequila were ok, just too sweet for me
Loved just sitting outside, conversing and just being!!
Would definitely come back to our neighborhood place
Was there on Tuesday 17th june
But the best part? Let me introduce you to DAVID! He’s the star of the show – always attentive, funny, and he makes drinks like a true master! Whenever I go, I insist on being seated with David.
They made our anniversary so special and they truly care about their guests’ experience. We feel so lucky to have this gem in the neighborhood. I’d travel far and wide for this level of excellence!
Oh, and I can’t forget to mention my favorites: The Good Good Things drink, the Buffalo wings during happy hour, and the amazing cheesesteak! And my kids absolutely love the huge, deep dish, extra cheesy pizza.
We’re off to our reservation with David – can’t wait! If you go, make sure to say hi to him and tell him Mink sent you!
Almost forgot the fresh house made potato chips!!!! So so so good!!! Don’t skip them!
