    I can always count on Southside grill to provide great service. The food always comes out in less than ten minutes from ordering, and it tastes the same every time! AMAZING. I like to order the omelets when I come with crispy hash browns and a pancake instead of toast. YUM!

    We stopped in here for breakfast before going to the Zoo. The service was very friendly. We ordered the reindeer sausage to try and it was very good. The pancakes were fluffy and my brother seemed to enjoy his French Toast. It's a breakfast place I would definitely recommend.

    Best Biscuits and Gravy

    The BEST HASHBROWN IN THE WORLD. and the BEST WAFFLES EVER!!! & FAST SERVICE!! If you're visiting you have to try this place. It was my last 24 hours visiting in Anchorage and this place was suggested by a family member. So my wife and I decided to try it out. When we walked into the place, the door was open - literally. And it felt so nice inside. So homey. After bring greeted with a friendly smile we're directed to have a seat anywhere. It seemed just as quickly as e say down, our server came with coffee, which caught me off guard. But realistically, it was probably less than 2 minutes. She was nice. We both ordered the Hungry Man's breakfast. I had bacon, eggs hashbrowns, biscuits and gravy and i ordered Pecan waffle as well. Our food came, and I usually take a photo before I eat at a place I haven't and when it looks nicely presented. But I was hungry, forgot and also because it was a diner. As a Texan, I tried the biscuits and gravy first. They Did Not Disappoint. 2 Big delicious biscuits bathing in a bowl of gravy. The biscuit were warm, soft, fluffy on the inside, thin layer of crisp on the outside. The gravy was definitely from scratch. It was so so creamy, with just the right spice, I saw bits of meat chunks as well. My thought after one bite was, This is How I should Eat my Biscuits and Gravy from now on. This is what all my biscuits n gravy will be compared to. Next up i had to try a bite of hashbrowns. With a little bit of ketchup drizzled, I tried the one food item that would be known as the standard for all things Hashbrown. Potatoe strips loosely packed together creating a layer of perfectly golden crispy goodness on top and bottom with a tender center of starch. Like the kind you'd see as advertised on any tv, movie or the package of any golden brown hashbrown. Except this was a dream come true and a dream that I never knew I had. These were Perfect. I've had a lot of hashbrowns in my lifetime and from many different places around the country. But this is The BEST in the WORLD on how it was done right. The WAFFLES was next, it too, would the New standard of all waffles sounds be. It was the perfect golden brown with the perfect recipe for a crisp exterior and a waffles fluffy interior of sweetness, served with hot syrup. After my wife tried a bit of the waffle she had also mentioned on how good they were. The bacon was perfectly cooked. And my eggs were beautifully over easy. I ate it with the Signature Southside Sauce which was very good!! Better than Chalula. When I went to pay, I was met with such friendliness. After the lady from behind the counter asked me how was everything I had to tell her, she needed to know... BEST HASHBROWNS IN THE WORLD... BEST WAFFLES EVER. ... she gave me a high five and a handful of candy and told me she goes by Mama, which seemed so fitting. My wife added a side of pancakes with her order and those pancakes were so pillowy soft, moist and melted in my mouth. It was such a nice contrast to the crispy hashbrowns. I told her I was visiting from Texas but that I'd be back during my next trip when I pick up my wife and daughter after Hurricane season is over for us. She also sent me home with a small bottle of their signature house sauce which I thought was the nicest thing ever!! Now I have another thing to look forward to on my trips to a Anchorage. "Best Hashbrowns and Waffles in the World" "Best Biscuits and Gravy" Its saddening though, that from that point on... all my breakfast or brunches containing hashbrowns, waffles and biscuits would be compared to this one meal. Heck, anything with potatoes, waffles and biscuits. For Anyone Visiting Anchorage, you have to try it. For those living in Anchorage, your so lucky to have this place and Mama!

    Chicken Fried Steak

    Perfect spot for brunch! Great fluffy pancakes and delicious chicken fried steak! Good service and old fashion diner style food. Only thing is that if they're busy, they would do anything in their power to kick you out without verbally asking you hahaha. They will clear out your table 110% until you feel uncomfortable and leave. So I wouldn't go there if you wanna catch up with a friend or wanna have a peaceful conversation brunch. Other than, it's a good restaurant

    Side of bacon
    Tara E.

    Always wonderful to try a new spot and find one that's incredible!!! South side Grill did not disappoint. Big helpings, friendly staff, quick service. It was standing room only when we arrived and Momma had us seated in no time. Our new breakfast go to, for sure.

    Potato Salad was good and sandwich was tasty too.
    Bill W.

    Service was very friendly. Food was above average. Love to support small businesses when I travel.

    Classic American breakfast!
    Rhett F.

    Classic no frills dining, very fast service, good food, nothing incredible but if you're looking for good solid breakfast fare this is the place for you. Big portions offering things like French toast as a side replacement! No views or anything special just the bare necessities. Prices were reasonable as well. As an aside I had the crab Benedict and while good the crab could have been firmer/more cooked, and the home fries were maybe a touch under seasoned for my taste. I may go with the hashed browns next time.

    Ambiance is perfect clean old school diner. Good came out FAST, hot and delicious. Reindeer sausage was amazing. Service was prompt and helpful. Definitely use the southside hot sauce!

    Triple Berry Cheesecake waffle

    So delicious! Definitely recommend if you're looking for a sweet over savory waffle! Everyone was very personable as well

    Omlet, pancakes, and Reindeer Sausage
    Sam T.

    Loved this breakfast joint! Omelet was huge and filled with crispy bacon and melted cheese. The pancakes were fluffy and warm and the reindeer sausage was perfectly seared. 10/10!

Is a masterpiece disguised as a cheese burger the tater tots on the side? Meh! Nothing to see there. The most mind-binding, disrespectful thing I came across at this establishment is them calling a glorified Little Caesar's quality cheese bread with a side of dipping sauce a "Pizza" if it wasn't enough that this cheese bread was marketed as a "Pizza" which it is not but to call it a Detroit style Deep dish? Unforgivable! I wanted to love this pizza so badly but I cannot allow anyone else to spend $28.00 on a dried out, over cooked order of cheese bread. The service was good until I was given Diet Coke instead of Coke Zero. I swear service recovery is such a lost art. C-

The atmosphere feels like a neighborhood hangout -- relaxed, welcoming, and perfect for anything from brunch to dinner. One big improvement since last year is the menu -- it's expanded and gotten so much better. Kudos to the kitchen! There are more options now, and everything feels more thoughtfully done, with better variety and stronger flavors across the board. We started with appetizers, and the steamer clams were delightfully well-seasoned.. buttered garlic in the white wine-- yum. For mains, the (not pictured) ribeye steak was cooked to perfection requiring no added sauce, pairing perfectly with my rose wine. The ahi tuna was another hit-- the wasabi-mixed sauce with every bite made it better! Portions are generous, and prices feel fair for what you get. Drinks are also a highlight -- solid cocktails (cold & hot), good beer options, and a nice selection of wines by the glass. Service was friendly and attentive, even though the place was busy. It has a lively feel without being overwhelming. Overall, Manhattan Restaurant & Lounge has really stepped up from last year and is now a great go-to for hearty food, good drinks, and a relaxed vibe. Definitely a spot I'm coming back to.

Seating is made up of booths along the window perimeter, tables thru the middle area and a large bar area with more tables and stools along the counter. The menu selection is surprisingly diverse. I was happy to see halibut as the fish for their fish & chips, as it is often cod or other white fish. I find halibut to be the best. They also have a few dishes with nods to Korean and Thai flavors. There are pizzas and dinner salads too. I went with their bacon jam burger for dinner. It is cooked to your liking and has a grilled apple, cambozola, bacon jam, arugula & house mayo. This is the best burger I've had in a long time. The flavors complement each other so well. If you are a fan of bleu cheese you will really love the cambozola. It is creamy and oozy and is amazing on a burger. My spouse tried their Cuban sandwich and didn't like that the pickles were mediocre and didn't add to the overall flavors, and that the bread wasn't crisped or toasted in any way -- the way Cubans traditionally are. He also took a chance with a appetizer off the specials menu which he imaged was Brussels sprouts however it was shaved sautéed Brussels sprout leaves, over warm couscous with lots of fresh herbs, jalapeños, and heavily spiced with bold spices like fennel. It was bizarre and not like anything we've ever tried. We liked some of the flavors but all together didn't make sense to us so we sent it back, unfortunately. Our child tried the Mac and cheese that came with purple grapes and sorbet. The Mac and cheese was good although I'd advise SRH to try a larger noodle than a small shell so kids can stab it better and get it in their little mouths. The sorbet must be seasonal/rotating bc it was cinnamon honey pear and it was crazy delicious. I'd come back for just the sorbet tbh. Other than that our red-haired bespectacled server was fairly attentive and quite friendly, even on a very busy Friday dinner rush. Parking lot just outside seems easy enough as long as you can grab a spot at busy times. Will be back in the future for the fried halibut (and sorbet!).

Unfortunately, they do not offer beer flights, so Colby created his own half-glass sampler, which did the trick. The brewery itself was pretty neat, with large beer barrels incorporated into the décor, including one that guests can actually sit in. Their beer selection was on the smaller side, but we felt the prices were fair. I ordered the Blind Berry Cider, which had a pleasantly tart flavor, though it leaned toward the extra sour side. We thought this spot was great for Instagram photos and a worthwhile stop if you have some extra time while you're in town. Overall, it was okay. I do wish we had known about the outdoor seating options beforehand, as we found the indoor seating area to be somewhat limited. The glassware was pretty cool as well, with several different sizes available. The bathrooms were clean, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. We would definitely return if we find ourselves back in town again.
