Was Anonym at Upside a mag?
That was our first time we tried this restaurant. Their weight was about an hour during the busy season, but they have a decent call-for-system where you can go around the local area until your table is ready. The seat above has a great view and it is very breezy. The mixed drinks were good and the salads were also good. But my fried fish was bone-dried and the bread was stale like the bread on another sandwich. That... View all feedback.
What Anonym dislikes about Upside:
This place was okay. Our party of 9 was sitting relatively fast and appetizers came quite fast as well as options available for vegetarians. However, our entrees needed a very long time to get out, and our server did not give any updates when we get our food, as it seemed quite distracted by some of its female employees. Even though we were sitting at 730, we got our entrees by 9:00. Most of us ordered the fish of th... View all feedback.

If you are a foodie you must try this place. Food is AMAZING, order the crab/macaroni cake and you won't regret it. Super nice setting, sit upstairs outside and enjoy the views! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
Server was very rude at times, food and drink orders kept getting missed, by the time my husband got his wings we had all finished our meals, they gave us the check and then ran our card for a completely different amount after saying they don’t split checks.

Tofu tacos 100% vegan and gf available. matt, our server said there is an evening vegan option also. so delish! only option, but so delicious!
We had some amazing fish here. The tile was delicious and the tuna was incredible. They were able to seat our party of 5 within 30 minutes on a Saturday evening and the server was friendly and helpful.
Food was incredibly under seasoned and some of the food tasted as if it had been placed under hot lamps for a long time. For the price flavor, and presentation was not up to par. The crab cakes were more mac and cheese than crab, but the fried oysters were delicious.
Overall, we enjoyed the atmosphere outside with party lights. Food, not so much. Expensive and quality varied a lot. Fish that was special of the day was supposedly snapper, but it was so overdone that who could tell? Coconut rice did not complement well. Came with some cucumber slices, but they were shaved thin and there were maybe seven of them. Salmon was okay, but just okay. Veggie pasta had very few vegetables and looked like it was made with Velveeta. Calamari was good. Hushpuppies were good, but pricey. Forget the three dip thing as an appetizer. Wine at $11/glass was a very short pour. $12 martinis had virtually no impact at all (supposedly measured, but did they water it down? , and waiter asked about an extra olive without mentioning that they would be $2 extra, so don't order one $14 martini. Add shrimp to a salad for and extra $9? Plan on spending $2.25/shrimp because there were 4, although they were nice, but the Upside salad left a lot to be desired. Seemed like the best things ordered at our table at a beach side restaurant were the pork chop, the chicken tenders, and the beef sliders. Be sure to look at the check because if you have a large party as we did, the gratuity is included. And that is fine and quite typical, but pay attention. We had eleven at the table and granted we had several drinks, but our bill was just shy or $600. Look around before you settle on this spot.
I?ve been here twice (once for lunch and once for dinner. The lunch experience was great- affordable, delicious! However, the dinner experience? I waited 20 mins for them to open at 5:30. It was first come first serve which is a bit inconvenient but it worked out for me and my friends. We sat down outdoors and took a look at the menu? shocked. There were only 10 or 11 options on the menu that were actually food (not including dessert or drinks. we ordered the calamari, and although it was a hefty $18, the chefs were not generous with the food- a small plate with only 10 calamari pieces. I guess it was good but not worth it. The rest of the food was mediocre- but for the prices we paid for and the amount of time we had to wait it was definitely not worth it. After 1 hour of sitting there. Only one group of people got their entrees. They also changed some items I liked on the menu which was disappointing. The only great thing was the kind waiter we had who kept us supplied with lots of water in this hot weather! Thank you for the kind staff. Otherwise will not come again. Disappointed about removing most of the stuff I like off the menus.

We were pleasantly surprised by our experience at the restaurant. The dishes were expertly prepared, including the pork chop, scallops, and snapper. The beer on tap was excellent, and the service was friendly and attentive. We would definitely return!
Overall experience was just ok. Our group of 4 waited for over an hour. This is fine and we expected it during summer months. We received a text that our table was ready. We walked over from a nearby bar where we were waiting and when we got there they didn’t want to seat us outside which was requested. They said in the time it took us to walk over they gave it away. After discussion they agreed to seat us outside at one of the still open tables. Aside from this, the food was average and drinks were good. Don’t think I’ll go back.
We discovered this hidden gem of a restaurant! The food was amazing—everything is prepared fresh by a highly skilled chef! The waitstaff was friendly and energetic! I highly recommend it!!
The food was cold, there was no atmosphere, and the service charge felt overpriced. In our group of eight, four people ended up returning their meals.

Bartender was cheerful, Was looking for a place for a good burger, I asked for a different kind of cheese and for it to be made medium rare. Waited a while for it to come out but I was okay with that given the situation these days when it came out thetemperature was more medium Well-done than rare. Bartender never came back over to ask me how it was or if there was anythingelse that she can do. Burger did come out with good taste, Even though the temperature was wrong. Took a while to get the checkand the pay, she didn't seem that busy that I couldn't get a little bit more attention...,.
This place was okay. Our party of 9 was seated relatively quickly and appetizers came out pretty fast as well options for vegetarians available. However, our entrees took an extremely long time to come out, and our server provided no updates on whenwe?d get our food as he seemed pretty distracted by some of his female coworkers. Although we were seated at 730pm, we didn?tget our entrees until 9pm (closing time). Most of us ordered the fish of the day which cost us $32 each and it was prettyunderwhelming. Cuts of fish were tiny, some of the rice was undercooked, and the portion was very small. We were done by 9:10.Maybe smaller parties have more success but I personally wouldn?t recommend this place.
Nothing short of 5 stares here! Outdoor dining upstairs on the deck on a perfect night. We each had a delicious beverage to start along with an appetizer to share. Best fried green tomatoes we?ve ever had! Then dinner?.Southern Seafood Boil servedover grits was excellent. Very tasty but not heavy. The shrimp and scallop dish over pesto pasta was also a great choice. Noroom for dessert but we brought home the key lime pie for later. Wow! Thanks Upside for a wonderful Dinner and great servicefrom Veronica. She was able to describe each item we ordered and answered all our questions.
This was our first time trying this restaurant. The wait was about an hour during the busy season but they have a decent call ahead system where you can walk around the local area until your table is ready. The seating up top has a great view and it?svery breezy. The mixed drinks were good and the salads were good as well. However my fried fish was bone dry and the bread wasstale as was the bread on another sandwich. That was a little disappointing.

We decided to to go dinner here after shopping at Timbuck II, I am so glad we did. The food was PHENOMENAL! My husband got the daily special, it was the Honey Bourbon Pork Chop, I got the Scallops and Shrimp with Pesto Pappardelle, both meals 10/10! I got a mixed drink too, it was delicious. Service was great as well!!
