The Brightside of Waterford — Restaurant in Waterford Township

I originally went around the Brightside to pick up a cake at Amy’s—I don’t realize they were really open at first since the inside is still kind of being put together and I didn’t see anybody, but decided to check it out while waiting for the cake. I had a nice little chat with the man waiting on me about their process and the freshness of the food as I waited for my carry out order. The food didn’t take too long and he threw in an extra roll for me which was super nice of them!

We stopped in for lunch after seeing their great reviews! Nathan greeted us promptly & his service was attentive & outstanding! We split the Reuben & each had a cup of soup…the sweet potato & roasted marshmallow (yes, you read that correctly!!) & the green onion & roasted sweet corn. Both were creative, excellent & served with yummy, warm rolls! Everything was served promptly, not rushed & prices were very reasonable.
