I had been to Side Hustle before twice and had such a lovely experience.
So I’m not thrilled to write this. But feel the need to share as I am concerned about what happened to me.
I popped into eat some lunch during burger week, and they only had a burger week menu. Really nothing else on it. Which as a small place I guess is expected.
I was about to head out, and the server recommended the Thai chilli chicken, and I said I can’t eat really spicy food. I then asked if the gluten free Thai chilli chicken could be made less spicy as it was the ONLY thing on the menu that wasn’t beef, or tofu that could be made gluten free.
The server said yes - the kitchen could not add the spicy chili jam to the burger. And I was like great I’ll have that.
The burger came out, everything looked good.
3 bites in and I can barely breathe.
They included the spicy chili jam, and as someone who can’t do super spicy items I nearly choked in the restaurant. It was quite embarrassing actually, I was coughing so hard I had tears streaming down my face. Made worse by how echoey the bar is itself.
The server finally came by after I was coughing for several minutes and I told him there is spicy chili jam on this. He says he will get them to remake it.
I had gotten nauseous from coughing so hard I don’t even want to eat more of the food that isn’t spicy (aka the fries I paid extra for)… So I just say no, thanks. You can take it. I had only eaten a handful of fries and a couple bites of the burger.
It was pretty bad, I was pretty embarrassed.
And I wasn’t even finished my cider before the bill was handed to me.
They charged me for 50% of the meal, burger and fries even though I didn’t eat most of it.
I likely should have said something to the server however I was already embarrassed from coughing so loudly.
I likely will take a second thought before heading back as everything is expensive now, and I’d like to eat what I pay for.
A vibrant spot with amazing service, unique atmosphere, and a menu that impresses everyone, perfect for special celebrations.

Oh my. Such a wonderful experience. I despise being gluten-free and find it embarrassing to have to ask for options. Cassandra was so accommodating, and in short order, the manager was at the table, explaining things to me.
The result was fantastic food. It was our wedding anniversary as well as my husband's birthday. So happy we chose to celebrate there. Thank you so very much. All of you. Oh, and the jalapeño margaritas? An absolute must have!!

First time checking this place out. It's not an easy place to find, but as soon as we opened the door, the look of the place was unique. Bar stools overlooked the main level lobby. The ascent to the restaurant itself was interesting. We did find the layout of the restaurant was not quite what we expected, but we stayed. A bit disappointed that there were no gluten friendly options for beer but settled for cider. The selection of burgers was very impressive. The food was excellent but best of all was our server; her name is Cat. She was friendly and attentive, knew the bar and menu offerings very well, and seemed happy to be there. It's always nice to be waited on someone who loves her job and that appears to be Cat!

Ate dinner here on the Sunday of labour day weekend. We were a party of 6 and had an early reservation. Our server Jenn (Jem) was not only an excellent server, she should also have her own comedy show. She was playful and hilarious. She made the experience a 10/10.
Everyone’s food was also great. We had a variety of items and they were able to accommodate with gluten free, dairy free, and vegetarian options.
Celiac friendly
