    Half chicken with potatoes
    Margo L.

    We always order the rotisserie roasted half chicken with potatoes. I also like their verde sauce. It comes out quick and the service is efficient and friendly.

    Rotisserie chicken
    Cindy C.

    Nice spot for a quick bite. You order first at the counter before sitting down, and the food comes out pretty quickly after that. The staff was friendly and polite, which made the experience pleasant. It's definitely more of a casual, order and go type of place since no one checks back once your food is delivered, but it's convenient if you're just looking for something fast. They offer outdoor dining, which is great when the weather's nice, but it does mean some flies find their way inside which was not the most appetizing thing while you're eating. It wasn't a dealbreaker, just something to keep in mind if you're dining indoors. The rotisserie chicken with potatoes was really flavorful and came with their signature orange chimichurri sauce, which added a nice tangy kick. The pork belly sandwich was okay.. I ended up asking for ranch to dip it in, which helped. It also would've been nice if it came with a side. The mac and cheese was decent, nothing special. Overall, it's an okay spot for a quick, filling meal, especially if you're craving that tasty rotisserie chicken.

    The famed BLT
    Mark B.

    I could say they make an incredible Pork Belly BLT and be done with it. If you love sandwiches like I do, that would be enough reason to visit. But apparently on the weekend they put that same pork belly into a Benedict for Brunch. Youzza I'll definitely be back for that. Additionally you can just tell they pay attention to details from the thoughtful tea service for only $3.50 to beautiful patio dining area surrounded by snap peas and native grasses. And service with a smile always is appreciated. Check em out!

    Food was good, quick fast service. Parking kinda hard to find but not bad. Would go again for light lunch Picture: falafel pocket

    Crispy brussels sprouts
    Elisa H.

    It's this simple...Get in line, look at the menu, order at the register, find a seat and in just a short while you'll be eating deliciously prepared food! We chose to share a half roasted chicken with roasted potatoes and salsa verde, roasted, crispy brussels and a quinoa salad. The chicken was roasted just right and seasoned perfectly. I could have eaten more of the roasted potatoes as they were so flavorful. The quinoa salad contained arugula, greek olives, feta and little cherry tomatoes. The brussels for my taste were over crispy with little flavor. Was a gorgeous day so we chose to eat on the patio out front. Highly recommend, can't wait to return!

    What do you do when it's 4pm most places are shutting and you just came from over 3 hour journey from point reyes lighthouse? You park yourself at side street kitchen! Boom! This hungry bunch shared their roasted half chicken plate (they say 20min wait but it was more like 15 so be brave and order it), the tri tip sando, mac and cheese,pita and salad. All dayum choices! Everyone was satisfied and full after this and ready to embark the last leg journey back to Oakland! Few inside plates and ample outdoor tables and clean bathrooms!

    Enjoyed the ribs! Fun atmosphere and attentive wait staff. Was there 7.20.25, and there was a waiting line.

    Buffalo Cauli "Wings"
    Fiona W.

    Gobbled down our food. Perfect place to refuel after a 9 mile hike! Delicious, quick service, and cute ambiance. We got the Mac & Cheese, Crispy Brussel Sprouts, Buffalo Cauli "Wings", Rotisserie Tri-Tip Beef Sandwich, and Rotisserie Chicken & Potatoes. Everything was so good. My favorite was the Buffalo Cauli "Wings." My friends' favorite was the Mac & Cheese. I have no complaints. The Mac & Cheese had an amazing cheesiness with the perfect amount of al dente pasta. We added pepper to ours because... duh. The Brussel Sprouts were so crispy. The Buffalo Cali "Wings" were also very crispy and flavored amazingly. Solid sandwich but probably my least favorite out of everything. Tender and seasoned chicken with three yummy sauces. Well, it's only been a day... and I already miss this meal. I'd definitely check out Side Street Kitchen if you're looking for a comforting meal.

    Quinoa feta salad and BLT
    MARJORIE S.

    Food was superb, especially the BLT. The pork belly in BLT was very tasty and sandwich was well balanced. Quinoa arugula salad was very fresh and light. Place had a relaxed vibe. Customer service was AMAZING from the cashier who took our order, the staff that brought us food and checked in on us and the gentleman who was clearing off our table of extra dishes. Clearly this place has good teamwork down. There was very limited seating inside but more seating available outside.

    Quinoa and arugula salad
    Guillermo R.

    Looking for a solid lunch spot post hiking then this is your spot. Friendly service, good food and the patio is the best spot to enjoy. We had the chicken quesadillas, quinoa salad and streak sandwich and all were tasty. Seeing the roast chicken and buffalo cauliflower coming out of the kitchen left us a bit envious so it's on our list next trip.

    Rotisserie chicken
    Sareena G.

    I did not expect to fall in love with the food here. We were in the area felt hungry and decided to make a quick stop. Their tea is all made in house so we decided to try them. We got them unsweetened. -Hibiscus Tea- soo refreshing and fruity - Mango tea- very black tea forward but still delicious. Food: - Rotisserie Chicken: Probably the best rotisserie chicken we have ever had! It was soo juicy and flavorful. We got it with the side of the chimichurri sauce and it went very well with the potatoes and chicken. It had a slight kick to it. - Italian sandwich- This was also one of the best sandwiches we have had. The focaccia bread, the meat, cheese all of it tasted very fresh. It all paired soo well. We can't wait to be back to try more of the menu items!

    After checking reviews for local places with vegan options, we stopped here. There was a line out the door, but it was moving quickly. We attempted to order several items but were told our choices were no longer available. That's ok, we had back up options and ordered those. The food came out quickly and we were on our way. While the flavor profiles of our dishes were good, nothing we ordered was really worth the cost. Overall, a bit disappointed. Perhaps we caught them on a bad day, but not sure we'll be back.

    Tried the tri tip tacos. Meat was warmed up and a bit on the dry side and most of the pieces were charred. The tacos were good but could have been better had the meat been freshly cooked and not burnt. Eggs in the taco were good. Just the right amount of food. Nice French press coffee. Service was excellent. Nice ambiance though wished the music was a bit lower in volume.

The menu is straightforward and very coastal forward. I ordered the Baja fish tacos ($20). The beer battered rock cod comes topped with smashed avocado, cabbage, cilantro-lime crema + salsa verde. The rock cod was exceptionally good - it's meaty and flakey. The toppings were mild and the perfect complement to the fish. Apparently, the Dillon Beach Burger ($23) is famous and honestly, it's pretty good. It comes with fancy meat - Stemple Creek beef - sauce, lettuce, cheese, dill pickles + fries. I think I added Monterey Jack cheese (+3). This tasted like an elevated backyard burger in the best way possible. Delish. We had a really nice dinner experience. Even though we did come around 6:30, we in no way felt rushed to order or to eat quickly. Service was attentive and excellent. Ten out of ten.

The restaurant's large windows provide beautiful waterfront views no matter where you're seated. Our waitress (whose name I unfortunately forgot) was fantastic. She mentioned she'd been there for 14 years, which says a lot in itself. She was friendly, knowledgeable about every dish, and gave us excellent recommendations. I know Caesar dressing contains anchovies, but I was hesitant about having actual fish on my salad. I'm so glad she encouraged me to try the cooked anchovies on the side--they were delicious. Perfectly salty and a great complement to the salad. The pork chop entrée was perfection! The pork was cooked beautifully, and the bread pudding side was just as memorable. I'm not entirely sure what was in it, but it reminded me of garlic bread in the best way. The applesauce was also a nice touch. The halibut was cooked perfectly as well, and the mashed potatoes practically melted in your mouth. For sides, the grilled asparagus was exactly what you'd hope for, and the crispy potatoes lived up to their name, perfectly seasoned with a great crunch. The soup of the day was a creamy spring onion soup with crispy pancetta. Although just as delicious as everything else ordered, its the one plate we wished the portion was bigger for the price it was going for. We've eaten at plenty of restaurants, but this may be the first time where every single thing we ordered--from the entrées to the sides and sauces--was a 10/10. Needless to say, this won't be our last visit. It was absolutely worth it and such a memorable part of our anniversary trip to Bodega Bay.
