    Okay peeps let's see who is in the chopping block today!!! Yes you have heard it today's new adventure for the Dendingers was sideboard. There is nothing to it so let's get to it! Let's start off with how the outside of the place looked like. Well for those who enjoy this lovely hot weather they do have outdoor seating. Side note they have something in store for us when we go inside and give you a surprise as to what other seating they have for us to enjoy. The outside was very clean so codos to yall for keeping this place neat and clean. As for the inside when you walk in you are immediately feeling a sensation of a homie vibe so yesss to this. As you look around you see a lot of seating inside for those that are students you have a long table on the left hand side for you and you buddies or a table facing the windows with barstools on them. Now I must say I love the fact that they let you pick out your own silverware which is amazing specially for someone that enjoys going to thrift store and finding old school utensils. Anyways as you look around you see a lot of signs one that I enjoy and laugh at was the one that says "unattended children will be sold to the circus" now that is funny. Anyways you also see so much delicious desserts including muffins, puddings and cookies. Now let's dig in to this menus there is different menus they have a weekend menu they had a weekday menu as well. I will not lie the prices are high but the quality is amazing just ooo at the pictures and see for yourself. So I decided to try this place on Sunday and I was indecisive on what to order. I was torn between Chilaquiles and French toast so I decided to go with French toast, which in the menu it stated that it came with fresh whipped cream berries, and of course, some fluffy French toast to be honest, I decided to go with the orange juice, but I really wanted to try the mimosas but sadly I was working that day so no alcohol for me, when the food was brought out, it was within 5 to 10 minutes that I was already eating besides the fact that they had a long line they were able to bring out food very quickly so I was super happy about that because I only get an hour lunch so I wanted to make sure that I at least had something to eat within that hour I also decided to take my wife at this place since it felt like home so we decided to try it out today and I noticed that the menus were different. I decided to go with a breakfast sandwich which included a sunny side, egg, arugula, ham and if I'm pretty sure, I think it was Swiss cheese, my wife decided to get grilled chicken breast with pesto sauce and chips on the side for drinks today we decided both to get a Coca-Cola and for the table we decided to get a corn on the cob with lemon. I'm gonna say mayonnaise and feta, which to be honest, I have never in my life had feta on the corn on the cob, but it actually worked out. It was mind blowing like that first fight. We both stated that it tasted likelemon flavored lays which is so weird but it actually worked out. For Sundays order it came up to be around $40 and that was just only me and for today's order it was almost $70 but to be honest it is worth every penny oh we also decided to get some homemade salt and vinegar chips so if they are as good as the chips that we got on that Chicken breast sandwich then we have nothing to worry about, but I am so excited to dig into those. Anyways, like I told you guys the big surprise as far as where else can you eat in that establishment so they have this little thing where you're able to get one of their blankets that are outside and you're able to take your food picnic style which means that they'll go ahead and put your food in this little picnic basket. They just ask you not to take any silverware or any glass to the park. It's like a little area up in the front and honestly for those people that just wanna enjoy a couple moment or enjoy just being with your kiddos or with the pup, that is the best thing anybody could suggest like you not only have us sitting inside of the diner or outside they actually have you doing a picnic style lunch which is amazing honestly so is this restaurant the Dendinger approve? I am going to have to say 1000 times yes, we will definitely be coming back with the whole family. Can't wait to try more dishes from you guys. See you soon.

    Had a great lunch experience with the family here. First off, the food is amazing. Not sure you could go wrong with anything. (Would love to come try breakfast here too!) We got salads, chicken sandwich, and veggie burger as well as PB&J for the kids. All the food was tasty. Great location near a large grassy area, perfect for the kids to play in. They even had some games to take and play with as well as a picnic kit and umbrellas if you want to eat over there. Would definitely recommend!

    A good fried chicken should be summarized in only one word: Harmony. If you are already a Bake Sale Betties (BSB) fan, Sideboard will for sure broaden the horizon. The brining skill is exceptional on this piece of tender and juicy chicken breast from the first bite till the last (BSB's tend to be dry in the middle and it's usually an indication lack of time for brining penetration). Slaw is where this game starts. Napa cabbage with higher water content was used instead of the normal one. The chef was able to pull this off not letting the extra water ruin the crunchiness of the fried chicken. Seasoning is very restrained and some very tiny seeds (maybe celery seeds? Anyone who knows?) give it the right tiny amount of bitterness. Savory, deep fry, light sourness, spicy (from the aioli sauce) and a hint of bitterness intertwine with each other. Remember what I said at the beginning of a fcs? Better go on a weekday.

    Omg if you want a really cute and fun brunch spot, this is the place! I came here to meet someone and the atmosphere is lively and feels like you're walking into a family's home for brunch. The service here was really nice e and quick to bus the tables. To eat, I had a veggie Benedict. It was so tasty, so light and filling. I even took a pastry home for later that was so fluffy and sweet. I would definitely come here for brunch. Hands down ny favorite spot for Sunday brun
