We stopped here for a chill dinner on New Year's Eve prior to festivities nearby. We were seated right away in a booth toward the back, which I appreciated given the cold temps. Our server was kind and prompt, and we ordered several items including gimlets, an egg salad wrap, the cuban sandwich, clam strips, and a slice of strawberry cake to split. Everything was quite good, and the gimlets were STRONG. I was so glad I was not the driver. Prices were reasonable and the menu was expansive. I'd certainly consider a return in the future. read more

Dropped in for a late Saturday lunch and were seated immediately. Northside is a nice neighborhood haunt with a large central bar and booths up each side. The menu is decent, with a number of salads, burgers, sandwiches, and some surprising items. Most items were in the $15 to $18 range. We have had their fish and chips before and found it to be a good version. On this day we chose lumpia from the appetizer list, an A-1 & Gorgonzola burger with potato salad, and a cuban with onion rings. We love lumpia and sadly see it on few menus. This version was crispy, hot, and not greasy, and it came with a decent sweet and sour sauce to dip in. The burger was drippy and sharp tasting -- exactly what you'd expect from the name. The potato salad was okay, nothing special and definitely needs seasoning. The cuban was very flavorful but a bit dry, which was remedied by extra mustard. The rings were hot and cooked perfectly. With two iced teas the bill came in about $70. A bit much for a lunch but not outrageous based on our order. Ambiance -- very casual, definitely focused on bar service but the food doesn't suffer. There is live entertainment some evenings, with a decent music playlist coming through the speakers during the day. Two gender specific one-seater restrooms with changing stations. The patrons were everyone from post-college aged people sipping mixed drinks to retired couples eating lunch together to the bar denizens. Street parking right outside with a lot across the street. read more

Good local diner with delicious food and friendly staff. I don't come here as often as I should, but that just means I'm surprised every time I visit. The meals are quite filling and I always have leftovers, yay. I typically come during lunch time, and I haven't seen it overly busy during that time. read more

I came here with a group of friends and overall had a disappointing experience. When our food came out, I tried the cowboy burger I ordered and it tasted really strange. I asked one of my friends to try it as well, and she agreed that something about it didn't taste right. We asked the waiter if it could be removed from the bill, but he said he couldn't because I had already taken a bite. He did say he would check with the manager, but we were told the manager said no. The manager never came over to our table to speak with us directly, which was frustrating. Apparently because two bites were taken, I still had to pay for the burger. It was disappointing because there's really no way to know if something tastes right without taking a bite first. I wish the situation had been handled better, especially with some communication from the manager. read more

We came in for the nfl games this past weekend and sat at the bar. I wish we would have gotten the bartenders name as he was SO friendly! We ordered a couple beers a MASSIVE quesadilla (I forgot to take a picture) and some steamed spiced shrimp! Both were awesome and we will be back! read more

Northside Grille - Spiced Shrimp - New American Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

Never again! Been a couple times previously for a quick in and out lunch with work folks. It was always fine - nothing to write home about. This last time I stopped in for another quick lunch. A couple people sitting at the bar; not busy at all. To start, they don't serve sweet tea! I was aghast. lol But I stayed and ordered a Pepsi that turned out to be half flat. Got th menu and the interior of the menu was gross - dirty and sauce and something else on there. I overlooked it and ordered a Cuban that came out over done as hell. It was toasted too long in the panini press. Parts of the bread were burnt and the inside was dry as the Mojave as I said on insta and it lacked any real flavor. The fries were hot and crispy - a plus. The ketchup tasted wrong as hell. Not rancid but on its way. Well? I finish the fries and under the fries were not one but TWO hairs. Weren't mine, I'm bald! Tell my server and say, I think the kitchen needs a little reminder to wear hair nets or something. I don't make a big deal about it cuz at this point it's whatever. He says he'll "yell" at them. Ummm...no yelling isn't necessary, just a reminder - I've worked in kitchens I know what it's like. He takes the plate away and lets me know he "yelled" at them because it was completely unacceptable. I tell him again, no yelling was necessary just a reminder and he replied with, "nah it's okay, I can do what I want around here." So that alone left a nasty taste in my mouth. I never asked for a discount and didn't fully expect one given I ate the thing without complaining but as someone who's worked and run restaurants I definitely would not have charged full price. I'd say it was a waste of 30 minutes but I was waiting for the pharmacy to reopen, but it was definitely a waste of $22!! Never again. read more

Best Rueben, keep dem fries crisp! Love the pasta too! Been coming here for a while now and the people are nice, cool little spot!

Great neighborhood bar with live music many nights. Good burgers and good people. Decent rotating taps with a good variety.

We sat the bar. The bartender was attentive and friendly. It's a great local hangout.

Sunday 8/6/23 6:47pm The restaurant is packed! That's a great thing. It's a family style restaurant but could also be a casual date spot. Nobody working here gives off the vibe they love their job. That being said, they are a little busy. I'm not really hungry but I wanted something so I will order the crab dip & a cup of homemade chili with a sweet tea. Ok- I was told they don't have the crab dip anymore. They haven't updated the menu yet. They also don't have sweet tea. So I opted for nothing to drink and ordered lobster bisque. The lobster bisque was ok. Would I order it again? Probably not. I also think it has imitation Lobster meat. It doesn't taste real. $9.08 Maybe I'll come back when I'm hungry and try the Ruben. read more

Good old fun bar. Employees and patrons are all great folks. Great music venue for awesome diverse genres bands.

We stopped in for a simple birthday lunch hoping this would be a great place to eat. It took a couple of minutes before anyone came out to seat us, which we thought was reasonable. We thought it was a cute place, with plenty of seating, but to many tables in the limited space. The server came to take our order, we all ordered sandwiches, the sides would be an additional cost. However, our server disappeared for the reminder of the time, we never saw her again after that point. After the half hour we wondered if we were going to get our drinks. An hour passed, a different person came out and asked if our order was taken, we told him the other server had already taken our order. He then told us the order was not put in and we would have to place our order again. They were aware we have waited over an hour and that we have not received our drinks, but if we reordered, we would be waiting another 20 - 30 minutes or so. This was told to us, with a very casual manner of an "unconcerned" way of fixing this, with no apologizes or explanation of any sort. It was not a busy time of day, with only a couple of tables being occupied. This would have been our first visit at this place of business, so we were pretty excited to try it out. However, we opted out of reordering and we are not sure if we would return. read more

Food and service is always fantastic. The staff is super friendly. We loved the warm local atmosphere. Sadly, someone changed the light bulbs and the ambiance took a negative turn. We prefer a warm tone for a restaurant. The new bulbs belong in a drug store. read more

Service was great. Food was tasty. I have not eaten there for a few years. I am glad that the quality has remained. We will visit again.

A pretty phenomenal menu for a neighborhood bar and Grill, they also have terrific musical groups come play, I love the cheeseburger with sweet potato fries, and my favorite keto food is their raw tuna bites read more

Love the ambiance of this place and would go back for drinks but food was average at best.

If you find yourself in the Bellevue area, don't miss this hideaway. There's nothing better that a neighborhood grill! I love the dim lighting and the cool vibe here. We nestled into a cozy booth and pored over the menu. I opted for the steak quesadillas and let me tell you, they were terrific! The steak was tender and it's was super cheesy!! I'd definitely order this again!! (I had mine sans tomatoes). My friend ordered the meatloaf sandwich which was humongous! She's a petite lady, and this sandwich towered over her! Suffice it to say, you may need a doggy bag for leftovers! The fries were hot and delish! I've been here a few times and would come back for sure! Our server was a tad aloof, but he was efficient so that kinda balanced out!! The place was clean and the prices were fair. It's certainly a place to linger and enjoy a good time!! Update: added a star because we just had a stellar lunch and great service! My Club sandwich was off the chain and hubby got the special quiche and soup du jour the cauliflower cream soup was bomb! read more

Nice evening at the Northside Grill. Delicious dinner and good music.The Chocolate cake was incredible. Only problem is the sweet waitress brought 2 forks and my husband almost ate it all. We look forward to another visit. read more

Admittedly I haven't been there since the pandemic, but I was so glad to look in yelp and see that one of my old favorites was still in business! It's usually relatively quiet. The seating isn't super comfortable but I'm just grateful to not have a wait. And everything I've eaten there has just been outstanding. Crab bisque especially! read more

Really like the fish tacos never had that before. The staff was attentive and they have live music. Also I saw oxtail on the menu!

I ordered bbq, it appeared to have been headed on the grill was dry and hard. My husband ordered French dip and it was steak and cheese meat with a side of au jus. Don't think we will be back. read more

Best, beautiful patio in Richmond where you can bring your behaved dogs. Live music inside and on the patio and fun staff! Great neighborhood feel with walkability. Large parking lot right in front of the business. read more

I can't believe I've never been here until now considering how close it is to my haunts. While there's nothing special at all about the menu or ambience, it definitely has a neighborhood feel about it. It's good for a burger or a beer with friends, especially if you live in Bellevue. The shaggy barkeep is super nice and service-oriented. My food was forgettable, but it filled the void. read more

Visted family who grew up in the neighborhood. Stopped here due to its proximity. What a lucky break. Wanted takeout however the owner I assume asked if he could open the outdoor seating for my wife and dog. . He could not have been more welcoming. The buffalo chicken wrap was grilled and was one of the best I ever had. The onion rings were outstanding and even the cold slaw which neither of us are fans of could not believe how fresh it tasted . The chicken salad sandwich was well prepared and very filling. A must stop if in the area. read more

Great place to grab a quick bite or even meet out for a social gathering with some friends after work. Food is great, customer's service always pleasant and friendly. One of my favorite are the steak and cheese subs, club sandwich, onion rings, EVERYTHING!! read more

A very strong 3.75 Very clean and comfortable layout of the space with a large central bar with plenty of seating and TVs for anyone wanting to watch a game. Staff was very welcoming. The waitress was friendly. Not as attentive as I would have liked but as much as she needed to be on a busy dinner service. We had the crab dip to start, which was ok. I probably would not order it again. We each had a burger for our main. Those were fantastic. Extremely juicy and cooked perfectly to the requested temp of medium on one and medium-rare on the other. I'd go back for the burgers alone. Solid neighborhood sp read more

Favorite neighborhood bar to frequent, and Trevor the bartender is the best. Fair prices and great food.

Well they advertised they were going to be open on Easter Sunday. I went to there website it said they were open. I took an Uber and got there they were closed. I waited and watched as people came to o door and kept trying it. Nothing. Don't advertise you are going to be open . Just stay closed forever as far as I am concerned. read more

Love this little Hometown Grille and Bar! Daily specials, good drinks and a friendly staff! We had the Oysters Appetizer (A Special for the day) WOW! They were lightly battered and Fried crispy on the outside but soft and cooked to perfection on the inside. Had the Northside Grill Burger with cheddar and a side of onion rings ! Yummy split this meal with a friend and trust me it was plenty! Well I had a Woodford Bourbon and she had a light crisp House Chardonnay!! Go check out you little neighborhood place! read more

Unfortunately, didn't remember to take pictures of any of our food as my daughter and I were busy catching up with my childhood friend and her daughter. The food was OUTSTANDING! I had a cup of the crab 'bisque', but it wasn't a typical bisque....it was more thick, plenty of crab (no fillers here!), I would say it was more of a chowder-type consistency. It was one of the best crab soups I've ever had..it reminded me of Rudee's on the Inlet's She crab Soup (Virginia Beach), to be honest...THE best She Crab Soup I've found for years...I digress! The girls had Chicken Parm Sandwiches, which were huge (served with fries) - they had to take some home, as they couldn't finish them; my friend and I had burgers. I had the Cheddar Bacon (perfect crispness- SO important to have the bacon crisp!), w LTM cooked perfectly to my request (medium). She enjoyed hers as well- so would say they were fantastic. We almost skipped dessert, but decided to share the chocolate cake - SO glad, as it was HUGE! It shouldn't be missed, though- delicious- just PREPARE to SHARE! The server (very jovial guy w a beard - wished I had written down his name) - wonderful service - we were so busy talking and he was checking on us, but unobtrusive...wonderful personality...kept us laughing! It was a great experience overall: great service- great food! The bar is large and there were a good amount of people sitting at the bar. Surely fine for kiddos, as we were there early on a weekday evening (I'm late posting review ) but just keep that in mind if it's a weekend night. Surely will return when we're back visiting family in VA. (have been here several times, just wasn't Yelping at the time) and will HAVE to post the name of that great server! Bravo once again, Northside Grille! read more

Good parking, great service and everything I've tried here has been excellent. I don't come here often but when I do it's always really good

Friendly staff, the bartender/waiter went over and above when there was a small issue with our appetizer (not quality related), food was super good and in big amounts (we took food home)- would go back and recommend to family/friends! read more

This has become our "local." We moved to Ginter Park last December and are probably here once a week. The menu is pretty standard- sandwiches, burgers, salads. There are typically specials - pork chops (mmm) steak and/or salmon. Staff is generally friendly, and it's clear there's a substantial group of regulars. We've never had a bad meal. If I have a suggestion for improvement, it's this - for heavens sake figure out the draft beer situation- offer something other than IPAs, and don't rely on paper labels taped to the taps! read more

I was here on Sunday before a concert. The food was delicious and service was great. Definitely coming back

This should be 3.5 stars. It's very good and solid place to get some grub. Staff is all very friendly and the bar is huge. I think they're a little overpriced in this market. Again 3.5 stars is what this should be. read more

Northside Grille - New American Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

I have been here probably 5 times over the last 2 years and it has always been good. This is one of the few places that I have ordered something different every time I have been here. I have had their chili, Philly cheesesteak sandwiches, and hamburgers. All has been good and cooked to order exactly i I have asked. It's a small close knit kind of restaurant, and if you don't get here by 12 o'clock you probably will not have somewhere to sit because it gets packed quick. The chili is that I've had here in particular stands out. It's from scratch for sure, as is everything else I have ever had. This service has always been good here. If you're in the Northside area it is a great place to go for lunch. The Northside Grill never fails to deliver in food quality and in service. read more

I really, really meant to order a healthy salad at the Northside Grille today. But, it just wasn't in the cards. The enticing selection of sandwiches that ran down the center of the menu tore me away from the likes of "house" and "Caesar." All your favorites are there, reuben, burger, pork barbecue, buffalo chicken, and I could go on. I went for the Cuban. Turkey, ham, cheese, pickles and whole-grain mustard were packed into a Cuban-style roll and pressed. The meat was thick and well flavored, the cheese was gooey, the pickles were tangy and the mustard was just awesome. I loved this sandwich. For my one side I chose to pay the extra dollar for onion rings after seeing gorgeous piles of golden O's arriving at tables nearby. They were hot, freshly fried, beer-battered and delicious. I couldn't stop eating them (hmm, why aren't I thin?). At least I was too full for the enticingly huge wedges of carrot cake that were sitting inside a chilled case. We ate our meal on the spacious patio that's packed with white umbrellas, big wood tables, hanging lights and other charming decor. The inside is brightly colored with exposed brick and local art. All in all, Northside Grille is exactly what a neighborhood joint needs to be: casual, friendly and fun with simple, good food. There's also a big bar in the center of the restaurant. I saw several Starr Hill brews on tap: yay local beer! I'll definitely be heading back for more patio lunches and relaxed dinners. Maybe I'll even bring myself to order a salad...but probably not. read more
