Sidelines Sports Bar & Grill

Food and service are always great. We love the consistency, you cant find that with many places in this area! They are always running specials which is nice! I LOVE the wings. Definitely a must try :)

Not too bad, but not awesome either.
The only awesome was the server Lauren, who explained everything the menu, and brought us beer samplings 2 minutes after we were seated.
I had a burger, and it was pretty good. Not the best I’ve ever had, but not a frozen puck either. A co-​worker got the black and bleu salad and it looked good, a nice mix of fresh greens.
It’s a sports bar, so while the food isn’t top notch, it still his the spot.
Everyone at the table thought Lauren was the best server they’d ever had.

Service was ok, same with the food. The TV’s weren’t very clear for the games going on. I would only advise going here if you were trying to keep your spending to just one $.

I love this place. It’s great for the whole family. Food is always great and staff treats you like family. My favorite is Brad he is the man!!! But in all honestly I love everyone there. I recommend this place to everyone. I really love their wings and go every Wednesday for them.

My wife an I visited Sidelines Sports Bar & Grill a few days ago and found it to be pretty average. When we got there it wasn’t busy at all and were told to sit anywhere we would like in the restaurant. Soon after our server (forgot her name) came over and informed us of all the drink/​food specials they had for the day. I ordered the buffalo chicken sandwich and my wife ordered a burger. The chicken sandwich and burger a very filling and were honestly pretty delicious. Their menu prices are very fair and have a pretty solid happy hour for the drinking kind. One thing I liked most is that they had televisions everywhere, so no matter where you are located in the restaurant you can always find a game you wish to watch. They also have a small arcade with pool tables, which was pretty fun. We had no problems with our food or service and since we live right beside it now my wife and I will definitely be repeat business.

Excellent food excellent service. Can’t be beat even by twin peaks. If you want really good food, their fish dishes are wonderfull. Great steaks and burgers. I’ve tried everything on their menue and have never been disapointed. Really excellent wings, both boneless and standard style. Full bar also

One of my favorite places!
The new food specials have been very good! Love the fried okra!
Love the staff! My favorites are Ashley, Denise, and Kristy– go girls!
Gotta check it out!

Wasn’t very busy, but still had to wait over an hour for our food! Then got a story bout being understaffed because they overstaffed the week before and no one came in. Not our fault! Then the ribs I ordered had basically no meat on them! Ughhhhh. Bartender was good. But not her fault kitchen help was horrible!

Came here with co-​workers for the boneless wings. We ALL got extremely sick from eating here. I’m recovering from an awful stomach bug and needed to write this review.

Food is horrible! Service isn’t much better if I could review with 0 stars I would… Other reviews of 5 stars have to be employees or they don’t have tastebuds. If this place doesn’t change their Chef and serving staff it’s going to be the next to go of many business at this location. I don’t get it if you are reading numerous review complaints about your food and service why you wouldn’t address the issues …

Sidelines is a great spot! Food is on point and the $ 6 burger and 1.50 ice cold draft Budweiser Thursday nights!

Gave them a 2^nd & 3^rd chance, wanna like this place because of sports bar and location, but. Sat at t bar, business attire, half full bar and got COMPLETELY ignored, BY 2 bartenders, at 4pm onna week day. Gotta flag them down for a menu, beer list, to order, to get a second beer, to get t ck, and noone came for it w t cash sitting on top. Gotta listen to t snotty one complain about t outside waitress stealing her glasses, well BUY more. He comes on shift and is busily stocking t bar that she left empty, while they both ignore me. They wait on both sides of me, repeatedly, and I’m sitting there staring at them, politely waiting my turn and then they walk away. BLT way too much butter, not enough lettuce, brown edges. Bacon, cole slaw, music good. Beers, kinda warm. Chicken wings, nondescript chucks of chicken sitting in a puddle of sauce, luke warm. Won’t be back.

I ordered mild wings with celery and ranch dressing.
They were by far the worst wings I’ve ever eaten. It was like baking wing with no seasoning. Very disappointed.

Although this was our first visit we cant help but wonder whats going on behind the scenes here. The first impression you get is a nice walk in section complete with sport jerseys you can purchase and a cash register with soup of the day signs but nobody is manning this area.
What looked like possibly the cook came out and asked if we were being helped to we replied no. He gave us our seats then went to the back area. There’s plenty of tv’s and lots of room in the place with a whole back section we didn’t see until we left.
First up was the Chili. were not sure what this was made of but it wasn’t very good at all. it was luke warm and had some sort of meat (possibly pork) there were no beans in it and it tasted very salty out of the can or filled with barbque sauce. not sure on that. we ordered chicken strips and chicken wings. the strips were ok but not what we were expecting. I hate to bash on this but it looked/​tasted processed. I know they all buy wholesale so thats ok but it was just odd. the meal wasn’t hot.
My wife ordered chicken wings and they were barely cooked as she peeled back the meat and saw pink. She took them home and properly cooked them. The wait staff was ok, she seemed busy and more focused on the back area? not sure on that. overall it was our first time there and the wife wanted to leave early.
One other reviewer mentioned the seating. yea it was hard and all wood. I think this is ok for a short visit but can imagine it will wear on your ass after 40 minutes or so without padding I cant imagine watching a 3 hour game unless your at the bar and those seats are better?
We were looking forward to finding a new cool place to go eat but it just didn’t work out.
It seems like (our impression) most of the focus on the customer is at the bar area and the back porch section so that might explain the long wait and luke warm food we got served. Perhaps our food was just sitting there getting cold until the waiter remembered.
Please make sure the food is cooked and it’s hot.
Thanks

The food at this place is terrible! The so call jerk chicken is perhaps the worst thing I’ve ever tried to eat in my life! The be fair the service was okay. This place needs to be rescued by someone who knows how to run a sports bar. I’ve never been to a sports bar where the music being play in the bar is more important then the actual sports audio you’re watching. I mean the music was so loud I left before my game ended. I spit out my boneless jerk chicken… It was that bad.

I’m just wondering how long you sit in basically a empty sports bar on the first Monday night football game and can be ignored. Hmm we are from out of town and this is definitely not a friendly place

My wife and I went for lunch today. My food was burnt. So why a rating of 5 stars? I didn’t complain. Never do. Just never go back when I have bad service or food from a restaurant.
As we headed for our car we ere surprisingly chased down by the manager Chase. Literally brought out my food and said «Did we serve you this??» I said yes and proceeded to apologize and explain why this shouldn’t have happened and was sincere and shocked at his staff.
He went on to offer us a free gift card and wished we would return.
We have never in my 40 plus years on this Earth had a more personable pleasant customer service experience than this. Wow!
We will return!

Didn’t want to go back… REALLY didn’t (see my review below from 2÷16÷15). But I was overuled when my co-​workers wanted to go for dinner and drinks after work. Guess what? Has not improved… shocking! The food was not great. Someone in my party ordered the Chef Salad, despite my warnings about my husbands experience from back in February. It has not improved. A ridiculous attempt at a salad. They should take salads off the menu or learn how to make them. Once again, I tried the Philly. The waitress got it right this time (no peppers), but the meat was dry and the roll was not fresh. Everyone else had burgers or wings and everyone said the food was unremarkable. And once again, the Service was HORRIBLE. Our waitress was absent most the time. Only coming to take our order, serve our food (with another server) and to give us our check. How do you not come back to see if our orders were correct? To refill our drinks? We would have stayed longer and drank more if we were having a good time. Everyone’s glasses were empty and we looked at each other and said time to go. As we were walking out, someone said «Katie, we will listen to you next time. You warned us!»
The Management needs to learn how to train the wait staff to do their jobs. The service is, and always has been, terrible. They are rejected Hooters Girls, girls that flunked out of serving school. I have a suspcion they hire from the bottom of the barrel and because of the lack of consistency of the food, the good ones move on and the lousy ones either quit or unfortunately stay.
The kitchen also needs some cooking lessons. The salads are an adbomination. The fries are not fresh. The philly is good when it’s good, but based on other reveiws here as well as my experience, it’s hit or miss.
In closing… Sidelines, go for the booze and sports.
That’s all.

My family and I were visiting from out of town and decided to eat here last Monday. They were offering $ 9.99 baby back ribs AND a free kids meal. The food was decent for the price. Our server seemed a little frazzled with the two tables she had though, and part of our order was totally wrong, but the ribs were excellent. :)
We were in there before the evening crowd, maybe around 4:30. The best part of the entire experience was the manager, Jason. in my haste to leave after dinner (two tired kids will do that) I ran off and forgot my very hard to find baby carrier at the table! I only realized this 2 days later after we were already home in Tampa! I called the restaurant, they had kept our carrier safe and in the office, and Jason saw to it personally being shipped back home the next day! Thank to his integrity and honesty, our KinderPack is home safe and sound.
We will be coming back if we’re ever in the area again. Many, many thanks to the staff for finding and keeping our carrier safe. :)

This is a sports bar– with dozens of great flatscreen tvs, pub menu, cheap beer on tap (even an IPA!) What else are you looking for?! I think the staff is very friendly, considering we are in Miami-​ish territory wearing New England gear (our server changed the channel for my dad!)
Let’s not complain about places like this– they are perfect for the purpose– a SPORTS BAR!!!
