Side Bar - Drinkery + Kitchen — Restaurant in Greenville

I have been to Side Bar before maybe a year ago and I don't know if things changed or if I changed but I'm glad I gave it a try again. Previously I didn't think the portion sizes were big enough or tasty enough for the high price but when I visited this time I was 100% satisfied, I even needed a to go box.

I went with my husband after work for what I told him would be apps and cocktails. We had 1 drink each that we loved. I had the Pecan Honey Rum Sour, he had the Paloma. I liked the rum sour.

We had the chorizo empanadas and chicken tinga nachos as appetizers. I LOVED the nachos. Our server Ashlyn was amazing! She was very friendly and welcoming. She knew the menu well and was able to make recommendations based on what we told her we liked. Everything she recommended was fantastic. We were torn when choosing between a few things. The nachos were her recommendation and we loved them. It was also alot bigger than we expected and well worth the price. We also got the Korean Fried Chicken tacos and the Chicken Flautas. I was so full that I only tasted these two but they were really good. The korean tacos were full of flavor! I wasn't expecting it. They were sweet and spicy and so filled that stuff was falling out when I took my first bite. I liked the chicken flautas but they weren't as flavorful as the Korean tacos but that was to be expected. It was also a big portion, the two flautas were on top of rice and beans.

Everything was well worth the price because of taste and portion size. The atmosphere was great but if it is a busy time it will fill up quickly due to it's size. There is also outside seating and the area looks nice and there are heat lamps. If you have the pleasure of having Ashlyn as your server you will have the best...

If you're hunting for a taco spot in Greenville that serves up more than the usual fare, Side Bar - Drinkery + Kitchen deserves a spot at the top of your list. From the warm, welcoming ambiance to the creative food selections, this place nails it on all fronts. I ordered the Honey Chipotle Fried Shrimp Tacos, and let me tell you, they are a true game-changer. The shrimp were perfectly crispy, with a sweet and smoky honey chipotle glaze that balanced the heat beautifully. Each bite had the right mix of crunch, spice, and tang, leaving me wanting more even after the plate was clean.

The rest of the menu offers an exciting twist on classics, showcasing a creative spin on tacos, burgers, and cocktails, making it a great spot whether you're out for a casual night with friends or a more laid-back dinner. The bar scene also adds to the vibe, with a range of inventive drinks that complement the flavors of the food.

If you’re craving tacos that go beyond the basics, Side Bar is a must-visit. The Honey Chipotle Fried Shrimp Tacos alone make it worth the stop, but it’s the combination of flavors, great service, and inviting atmosphere that will make you...

Wasn’t treated well and was asked to sit at a table that was dirty, and the customer service guy didn’t care to take my order though he took 2 others who came after me. Such discrimination as I wasn’t obviously from around here, my skin color demand my ethnicity were a give away easily. I wasn’t obviously sitting on an uncomfortable tall chair with one leg of table wobbly, dirty table, and struggled to reach my food as I am a short person. When asked for a different table, I was told everything was reserved and taken while the next 2 different / separate families were seated as a walk-in just like me. How do I know? Because I heard them ask if they could sit at whatever they wanted, and yes, the waiter who served me said yes to them (not a big group, it was 2 couple, and another customer was 1 single guy). I would not go here ever. Too bad their food is famous with 5 stars, but their customer ethics and humanity are set at low standards, and I am not sure why any human deserves...
