    I really like Westsiders! The drinks are great, with lots of options. There are vegetarian options, though the brunch menu has less vegetarian meals. The sides are really good, and most are veg friendly. My fav is the whipped ricotta.

    Our experience was amazing! Sean did a great job taking his time with our table and making recommendations off the menu (well beyond just, “I like this” and more the flavor profiles). The food and wine were phenomenal. Highly recommend the succhetti with truffle cream and aged balsamic!!

    Very nice first experience. This is an interesting find and kind of hidden in a speakeasy kind of way. Definitely high energy and quite loud. Two great bartenders behind a very small bar area. Menu is somewhat limited, but does have interesting small plates and wood fired pizza's. Vegan Cream of Mushroom soup was outstanding. Ciabatta sandwich was very good but nothing special. Burrata Pizza had all the right ingredients, but I wish is would have been a bit more charred and crispy. Dough is quite thick, though fresh. Perfect Manhattan hit the spot.
