The Sideline Sports Bar Owosso — Restaurant in Owosso

In town for a softball tournament and what can I say? A guy has to eat. And judging by my size, this guy doesn’t miss a meal. Always down for a sports bar, even though I’m not a sports guy. Well, I mean, if eating was a sport I would be an Olympic gold medalist. But since it’s the off season, I’m eating for pleasure, not business.

Pulling up, you can absolutely tell it’s a sports bar. A lot of that has to do because it says so on the sign. But even if that wasn’t there, you would guess it’s genre of restaurant. The inner part of the building, where the cooking and eating take place, also speaks loudly of this restaurants affiliation with sports. One thing that was nice with this place was that the seating is spread out enough to where you don’t feel packed in. There’s plenty of room for movement without having to stand on a table to let people walk by.

As is the custom, I ordered boneless wings as an app. Buffalo flavor. The sauce. not the animal. Came with complimentary ranch I will use and commentary celery I will ignore. The wings were good. Had great flavor and the breading wasn’t too thick. I like the taste of chicken in my boneless chicken pieces.

Also, as is the custom, I ordered a second app. The pizza puffs. Now, from where I come from, we have several sports bar restaurants that specialize in Pizza Puff Apps™️. Therefore, those restaurants are the bar to which these will be measured. That being said, I do feel the outside of these were a little too hard. Almost had a crust. Not ideal. The PPA (Pizza Puff Apps™️) I’m used to are like fluffy clouds of dreams. Like puffs are meant to be. Theses missed that mark. The marinara sauce was good and the orange cheese was great. Though they do upcharge for the OC (Orange Cheese).

My Main Character Meal™️ was the classic fish-n-chips. Cod: 2 pieces. Fries: Crinke. Firstly, the fries. Crinkle cut fries are God tier and I saw Jesus with these. Secondly, the fish was great. Great batter, great flakeyness. The missed the mark with the tartar sauce though. It had a sweet taste, which didn’t couple well with the fish taste. Tartar sauce needs to have more of the first part of their name in it. Oh. The southwest ranch for obligatory fry dipping was fantastic.

Pizza Puff Apps™️: 7/10 Fish part of the fish-n-chips: 10/10 Tartness of tarter sauce: 4/10 Sports...

If I could give zero stars I would. And in all honesty if this is how the Owner runs Their business I can only imagine the utter travesty Their Personal life is. So the other day I placed an order and in the order there was a piece of saran wrap. So I saved the piece of saran wrap as well as what was in the order and called to let the server know what happened. The server that answered was Sara and agreed that was unacceptable. I also said I would be happy to show the food as well as the saran wrap but was told by Sara that would be unnecessary. She said She could remake the order but at that moment I declined since I had a upset stomach about finding plastic in My food so I asked if I could just get something at a later date and She agreed. So the other day when I went to redeem that I was not only treated horribly by Sara and another member of Staff but I guess the owner was out of town and came back and condones this type of behavior. Living in a small town treating customers badly isn't a smart business move. You know what else I find completely comical? Is the other day I left a review about My experience and how I was treated and just the absolute disrespect I was shown. And I guess I triggered Someone from staff either Sara Herself or the Owner. But Whoever it was directly addressed the things I mentioned in My review and I just find it funny and too much of a coincidence. That's probably why You have to make fake reviews online because You're more focused on reviews than actually running Your business and treating Customers...

My boyfriend and I came here the other night trying to find a new place to eat and we were so shocked with the whole experience. We felt so welcome! Our waitress was so friendly. I want to say her name was Ashley. I am a very anxious person and I was already more anxious than usual because before coming here we tried a different place and it was not for me so we left and as soon as our waitress came and greeted us, I felt instant relief. She recommended some options for us and we loved everything we ordered. The burgers are absolutely amazing! You must try the ranch dip! The atmosphere is just as amazing as everything else. We came on a slow night or time but it feels like you're hanging out in the backyard of a family members house for a bbq. I will definitely be...
