“My husband and I got a table at Sidebar over the holiday weekend for a group of friends visiting from out of town. It was our first time at sidebar even though we’ve lived in SD for a while. Our waitress was awesome and our busser, Vinnie made sure our table was stocked all night. The music was great and we loved the vibe. 10/10 We’ll definitely will be back!”

“I went during December and they did a fabulous job with the holiday decorations. We were planning to just stop by to pregame with a few drinks but ended up staying here the whole night. The dance floor was so much fun and the flower arrangements+neon signage were exactly what we were looking for. If you need to cool down, Side Bar also has an outdoor patio area for you to grab some air.
I would definitely round up friends to go again the next time I am in town!”

McKenzie Steenson
“We had so much fun for my girls Bachelorette! Ree took care of us and it was the highlight of our trip. We had a party of 10 girls, and so we wouldn’t be squished they accommodated us with two tables right in front of then DJ booth! Ree greeted us with my girls fave drink, espresso martini. They put on 2 shows for my girl — 1 for when we were walking up to the table and another a bit after with signage, printed posters, photos on the screen, her fave song playing! The details were so thoughtful.”
