They have a great selection of beers if you're a craft beer person. I used to come here frequently in the past and not much has changed (in a good way). It's a good easy going spot where you can have a few beers with friends. They have a nice outdoor patio area as well so it's a good one to check out when the weather is nice! They have taps, a stocked fridge, and a large bottle / can selection to choose from. It's also a good place to stop in if you're looking for a case to take home or to a party, for example.

The pork shumai was definitely the star, seriously some of the best shumai we've ever had! So flavorful and perfectly cooked. The cabbage rolls were also really good and full of flavor, and we loved the steamed pork char siu buns too. I also really liked the atmosphere. The restaurant has a beautiful, clean aesthetic, and their beer wall/bar area was especially impressive, very organized, spotless, and inviting. It's a great setup for a relaxed lunch in downtown Raleigh. Service was excellent as well. Our bartender was friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout our meal. Great food, beautiful atmosphere, and wonderful service. We'll definitely be back, especially for that pork shumai!

My husband and I came here for brunch when we were first visiting Raleigh house-hunting. We decided…read moreto revisit for Mother's Day brunch this year. We showed up early with our 1.5 year old daughter and they were able to seat us immediately. The area felt spacious, although that could be due to the fact that it wasn't super packed inside. I ordered the short rib benedict, my husband got the chicken & waffle sandwich, and we ordered my daughter a side of the mac & cheese. What a delicious meal! The short rib was tender and flavorful, and sat on top of a biscuit (what's not to love here?!) - horseradish hollandaise was the perfect touch as the horseradish pairs nicely with the beef. The chicken & waffle sandwich was the best guilty pleasure! Waffle crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside, chicken breaded and fried with a nice crunch, and a nice hot honey syrup to go alongside -- wish this had a little more heat. To our surprise, the mac & cheese side was a highlight too! It's hard to get a good mac n cheese, but this had such a rich, white cheese, slight funk flavor - delicious. Brunch at Parkside is delicious. Looking forward to trying dinner here soon.

Walking in the restaurant feels inviting, cozy, and distinctly neighborhood oriented. This is actually the longest running neon restaurant sign in North Carolina. To be seated you'll check in with the host and then be shown to your table. For drinks I ordered the Pineapple Press (citrus vodka infused with fresh pineapple, shaken hard and served up) and the Cuba Cola (black cherry rum, vanilla simple syrup, branded cherry & cola) cocktails. I really enjoyed the Cuba Cola which was very good and a tasted just like a coke. My partner ordered a mango cart on tap and the Blackberry Gin Fizz (Bombay Sapphire, lime juice, blackberries, aquafaba). She enjoyed both drinks which the gin fizz being more on the sour side. For entrees I ordered the Prime Rib Burger (prime rib patty, arugula, caramelized onion, brie cheese, bacon jam, brioche bun) with tater tots on the side and my partner ordered the Short Rib Melt (braised short rib, cheddar cheese, provolone cheese, caramelized onion, sourdough). Overall both dishes were a bit disappointing. The tater tots were cold and the burger was well done even though I requested medium for the temp. My partners short rib melt was okay but on the dry side and really needed some type of au jus to dit it in. The Mac & cheese she had on the side was also gritty and wasn't very tasty. Overall the drinks were great but the food was a miss. Not sure I'll return but overall the experience was okay.

I had the Bad Henny with potato salad. Everything was tasty. My only complaint would be the bread kept sliding off. But that potato was one my favorites ever. So tasty. The rootbeer which they make was a great nonalcoholic taste. Overall seemed like a chill spot with good services. Very friendly folks. Nice spot inside and out.
