Super tasty, great service and an awesome view. So glad we stopped here. Highly recommend. I had a newborn at the time and the bathroom was clean and had a changing table!

We dined her with friends who had been here before; DELISH! We sat on the patio with reservations at 6pm. There were patio heaters, although the weather was warm and they didn't need to turn them on. It was a little breezy though, but it was nicesitting by the water. I had the sand dabs, which was a special that night. It was setved with a mouthwatering lemony glaze,smashed potatoes and creamed spinach; pure yumminess! My husband had the short ribs over cheesy risotto. (Again, puredeliciousness! Our friends both had the beef lasagne, which was tasty, but not to the extent of my sand dabs and my husband'sshort ribs. I would definitely recommend Waterside!

My husband and I eat at this restaurant frequently. He loves the Cuban sandwich for lunch! They have a friendly environment with live entertainment on the patio. We take friends and family here. The food is priced well, and the staff are all wonderful.

We both enjoyed our Lasagna and Salmon. Salmon was accompanied by a cauliflower with some delicious flavoring. Decent selections of wines available. Did not try their cocktails but looked great. Beautiful location in the harbor. Our serverSavannah did a great job. All in all nice time.

Waited for over half an hour to receive our food. At no point did our waitress check in with us. I had to go ask about our order and were told that there was some sort of mix up and our order was not even put in the system. All would’ve beenunderstandable if it was busy and packed but there were only a handful of tables occupied.

I booked a reservation at this restaurant for Father's Day weekend after getting enticed by their delicious-looking menu on Instagram. It was our first time visiting, but sadly, we never got to see the inside of the restaurant...

I visited this restaurant for a drink over the weekend and was quite impressed. Even though it was about an hour before closing, the service was outstanding. The staff was very friendly, and the waitress...

We went here for a special dinner and it was the perfect choice!The outside patio has beautiful views of the harbor, boats, and mountains in the background.Our server, Savannah N., was excellent in every way! She was welcoming, attentive, friendly, and really made it feel like a special dinner.The food was outstanding. I had the grilled salmon which was very moist and flavorful. The serving size was plenty to take home leftovers. My wife had the fish and chips from the happy hour menu. It was a huge serving, perfectly done. The clam chowder was delicious as was the mushroom bruschetta.We highly recommend Waterside. We will be back!

Came to waterside for the first time today!! Loved the fish and chips the fries were so crispy which is my favorite type of fries!! The fish there is usually three, but I ate one before the picture . In my party there was a birthday so we got the free dessert and it was so good as we all got to try it. Service was also amazing we had some kids at our table and the waiter was so nice to bring them some coloring books to color while they were waiting for their food. Also amazing views of the boats and harbor!!
