    Don Julio (Tequila) Sunrise  Delicious
    Robaco C.

    Staff were professional and friendly. Music was PHENOMENAL, and very receptive to its audience. People were happy, relaxed, and just having a great time. No drama. Crowd is made up mostly of awesome younger wonderful individuals. You can basically dance everywhere! Felt safe and comfortable. Security were also very professional, knew their crowd, cool, calm, funny, and very respectful. I would most definitely be there again! Drinks were ON POINT! I didn't order food so I can't comment on it... but I'm guessing it'll be just as tasty. Great place.

    Even when all I wanted was a water it came with a cup of my choice of citrus. Beautiful.

    Absolutely a terrific experience!! Kind and attentive staff made a recommendation based on my preferences and they were delicious! The only sad thing for me is that I am from out of town so this is my one shot, as I leave tomorrow. But their Mexican food is LEGIT (coming from a Texas girl). I had both carne asada(beef) and al pastor (pork). Both were absolutely delicious. It's clear they were slow cooked by someone who knows what to do with some spices. Highly recommend! I did not expect this - I was looking for some greasy bar nachos and what I got was real food served by some delightful people. Highly recommend.

    When you think of Baja fish tacos in the United States, San Diego and Chula Vista, California, typically come to mind as the pinnacle. Having spent 17 years in that region, I can confidently assert that the best Baja fish tacos are actually found right here in Salem, Oregon. The Side Hustle's Baja fish and shrimp tacos are nothing short of extraordinary. Imagine a Baja Fish Taco that combines so many elements it feels like owning a Ferrari 488 Pista, a supercharged Cadillac Escalade, a Ford F-450 Crew Cab Platinum, and a Mercedes-AMG S 63 all in one. That's the experience of biting into Side Hustle Bar's Baja Fish Taco. The explosion of flavors and textures in that first bite is truly unforgettable--so much so that it becomes a flavor profile you'll crave endlessly. I find myself returning twice a week, unable to stay away from this culinary masterpiece. Don't forget the guac sauce!!!

    Great food. We had the veggie and asada tacos with chips salsa and guac. The salsa is spicy and flavorful. The tacos are really good for the price and the drinks are tall and strong. The margaritas have a grand mariner float. The service was really good for a sports bar. The ambiance is your typical sports bar but still cozy and friendly. I totally recommend for a relaxed casual night out.

    Great tacos, drinks and atmosphere.

    Margaritas are great. Wings (only on Wednesday) are great! Lots of T.V.'s. We only came at lunch but it was great. It's kind of a night club at night, so everyone says. Street tacos are really good. Birrai tacos are good.

    Very new/modern aesthetic inside, it looks good. They have lotto, woohoo! I've heard they have pretty good tacos. The major complaint is the bartenders sometimes have BAD attitudes.. and look like they don't want to serve you, and the drinks are fairly overpriced. But I like that they have pool upstairs. Definitely gets busy on weekends. Be careful, there seems to always be fights right outside..

    (2) Shrimp Tacos. Next time I'll request lite chipotle (a bit spicy for me)

    Stopped in here for lunch and a brew. Had (2) hearty shrimp tacos and hubby had a pollo quesadilla. Both tasty and reasonably priced. Lots of tv screens with several different options. Bar was very clean and service was friendly and attentive. I'll be back for Margarita Monday (blended or iced and lots of flavors!)

    These Tacos are hands down the best tacos in Oregon from the Food to the customer service 10/10. Best Tacos In Oregon

    Carne Asada, chicken and Carnitas tacos! Yumm!

    Amazing decor in this place, and friendly service too. When you walk in there are a series of menus…read moreto your right, and the same menus are up at the counter as well. You choose what you want and order at the counter and they give you a number. Then they'll bring it to your table. I enjoyed the rice bowl. The tofu seemed to be fried and the sauce on it was spicy. The miso Moon coffee thankfully did not taste like miso, lol. My friend had an espresso and said it was terrible, very sour. Everyone else at our table seemed to enjoy our food, there were a lot of burgers and fries being ordered at the group. They have my daughter's favorite sort of salad, with blue cheese and steak. Sadly, they were out of salmon the day we visited. Would definitely consider coming back if I'm in Salem again.

And that's saying a lot. You do not want to know of the torture. Suggestions: 1st: If you want to have a steak on the menu, at least serve the cut that is on the menu. 2nd: if you're worried about food cost, do something pounded, and marinated, OR do a small trimmed cut that is excellent quality, and serve it with a lot of mash and veg, and that bordelaise sauce (which wasn't bad). 3rd: Meatloaf

    After an initial visit that left us slightly disappointed with the bar service, we decided to give…read moreCozy Taberna another shot--and we are so glad we did! The stark difference in our second experience was night and day, making this visit truly exceptional. The cozy and romantic aesthetic of the restaurant remains fantastic, and the food and drink menu is still absolutely amazing. This time, however, we had the pleasure of being seated downstairs in Tiffany's section, and she was beyond stellar. Tiffany is the definition of exceptional service. She gave us a complete, helpful rundown of how they structure their tapas menu, offered fantastic recommendations, and was incredibly attentive throughout the evening. We had a great time chatting with her and her professionalism and warmth instantly made our return worthwhile. Her suggestions were perfect--she expertly helped us select a great wine and recommended the black ink pasta, which was a showstopper. Cozy Taberna, when paired with service like Tiffany's, is easily a 5-star restaurant. From now on, we will only return if we can be seated in her section!

    We walked in on a whim for our first visit -- no homework, no planning. We will definitely return…read more Ambiance: comfortable, both cool and cozy. Music was excellent; audible but not intrusive. Comfy chairs. Lower lighting, well placed. Service was excellent, friendly and fast. I think our server's name was Mikayla; a gem. Attentive and observant but never intrusive. Drinks: my old fashioned was absolutely perfect and my husband's margarita was fine. Appetizers: beer cheese was well balanced and a bit runny, which I prefer over the library paste version some places serve. The elotes dip was a standout, mildly spicy, with lime in the cilantro, and warm, crispy chips. (Whatever is in their seasoning for chips and fries should be sold separately -- I wanted to try it on everything.) We probably should have stopped there, as the portions were abundant, but our mains were amazing. Smash burger was insanely juicy, nice and onion-y with a few Crunchy Brown Bits around the edges. The roll was fresh and tender, with a good crust; flavorful, not just a shingle. The fries were the best I've had in Salem. Get the garlic-thyme upgrade; you won't regret it. My ribeye was cooked perfectly. Unfortunately they were out of both compound butters, apparently due to a busy Friday, but everything was well seasoned. The vegetable of the day was roasted Brussels sprouts with a sweet-and-salty sauce, almost like kettle corn; amazing. The outer leaves were caramelized without being burned, and the hearts were tender but not mushy. Crispy fried onions were perfect. Fried potatoes were fine, and enriched by their placement between the steak and the sprouts. The diners who came in before us were all smiles when they left, so it wasn't a fluke. Can't wait to come back!

The burgers were perfectly cooked and the garlic rosemary fries were to die for. They have great ranch here and a spicy sauce, I can't remember what it's called. The only thing that made this place of four stars for me is that the drinks are very small for the price they are. Customer service was amazing. We came in an hour before closing were the last ones there and they treated us so well. I would definitely go back and try other foods!
