John Hanken: What an amazing institution! The food was stupendous, the service, magnificent. The menu was focused on a small number of whimsical appetizers (peppered cheese spread on fried saltines, y'all!) and traditional entrees the evening we arrived. Might sound strange to call out their house-baked baguette, but it was really, really good. I'm a tough critic for mac'n cheese, but there's was pretty special. Some very fresh stone fruit and key lime desserts capped a wonderful meal. So happy we went! Can't wait to do so again.
Paul Bilotti: Don’t be fooled by the name, this is no diner! Great meal and great service.Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 4/5 …More
Dave: We simply stopped in for a beer before a show at Red Hat amphitheater. Beer was OK (limited selection). On show days, it's pretty crowded with slower service.
Joe Joplin: Poole's is a must on your Raleigh food list. Rotating menu of the best fresh NC ingredients. We had the Tuna and Hanger steak for our mains. Both were delicious and prepared as ordered (rare for us). We got the fresh tomato salad. The tomatoes were so fresh you will think they were picked in the back of the restaurant.Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More
Keith Hardy: I had the steak and all I could taste was soy sauce my son only ate one bite of his and the twice baked potato wasn’t good but I did try my wife’s seared tuna and that was very good.Food: 2/5|Service: 4/5|Atmosphere: 4/5 …More
Joe Christopher: Great Brunch! Awesome salads, great server from Maine, good music. Excellent spot.Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More
Kevin Liu: The food is about a 7/10, but the portions compared to the price is robbery. $34 for seared tuna that came with about 4 or 5 small slices is ridiculous. The only thing truly worth coming back for is the mac and cheese which is still wildly overpriced at $18. The pork cheek was decent but I kid you not there were about 4 or 5 bites total for $32. The heirloom tomato dish was great but again priced at $15 for about a 2 tomatoes and a little bit of bread is nonsensical. It came out to be about $60 per person for barely any food and a drink which is just ridiculous. I would avoid this at all costs, it is the epitome of the Raleigh food scene. Massively overpriced, massively underwhelming.
Ted Queen: I know this place has history, but nothing about the experience I had warranted the astronomical prices for okay food in a loud and cramped space.Food: 4/5|Service: 3/5|Atmosphere: 2/5Recommended dishes Macaroni Au Gratin …More
Tyler Pruitt: The food is good, but for the prices, all you get is the food. And although good, it isn't particularly special. A run of the mill high priced downtown restaurant. If you have a reservation the venue is somewhat fun. Their appetizers could use improvement. Mains are all great and everything we ordered was cooked perfectly.Food: 5/5|Service: 4/5|Atmosphere: 3/5Recommended dishes Roast Chicken with Herb Scented Yukons Double Chicken Stock …More

Parkside Restaurant: what do users think?

dan smith: An eclectic menu that never disappoints and great house cocktails. I had the breakfast burrito at Sunday brunch with the the tot hash and both were amazing. The spicy Bloody Mary is also worth a try. On another visit I got the dirty martini which sits prominently on top of their cocktail list, an excellent dirty martini. And I split the fried chicken dinner with my wife. The serving was generous and plenty of food for two after also sharing a salad.

Aayanah M.: I think i got food poisoning from this restaurant. Not to mention, the waitress took about 10 minutes to approach us and that’s AFTER another table arrived later than us.
Luis Z: Superb bar food and cold drinks wait for you here. In my last visit the burger was super off.

Teresa Avent: I never review a restaurant the first time that I go. If the service, food, and atmosphere is great, WHEN I return, I will offer a review because I now have an experience to compare it to... Anyway, my second lunch date was Friday June 30, 2023. Ironically, I had the same waitress (Mattie/Maddie?) and she was just as amazing-courteous, accommodating, and attentive- the second time around. Her knowledge of the items on the menu was great and I felt I could trust her recommendation. She gave us everything we needed and we didn't have to remind her of anything. The food was AMAZING! The first time I had the Prime Rib Sandwich and this time I had the BLT and both times I thoroughly enjoyed my food. It was fresh, hot and so good. The service was timely and we had some great people sitting next to us so it felt like we were at one big table at times. The overall experience was certainly a 10 out of 10!

Melissa Lashua: We had ordered a bunch of food from the bacon wrapped dates which was unfortunately not a favorite of ours, to the buffalo chicken sandwich, pretzel, french dip, and the ceaser salad with shrimp which were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! The service was great and the place was clean, we will definitely be back to Parkside.Food: 4/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More

j b: Ordered an item that was on the weekly specials and they charged me std pricing. Called the issue to the attention of the manager and he provided a lame excuse saying the special didn’t apply to me because I was taking out- just to opt out of providing special price. Nothing was noted that listed price was dine in only. I will no longer support this business - for sporadic application based on not listed rules.
Zack S: Most of the food was pretty good. The mimosas and waffles were the best.Food: 4/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 4/5 …More
Say Outhouse: Went for a birthday a few weeks ago. Fried fly found inside my lettuce on my sandwich.The meal was comped and that was that.Never going back.
Alison Delaney: Just frequented for the third time - excellent location and the service was fantastic. The fried pickles were outstanding and the tuna nicoise was divine.

S J: Parkside Restaurant was a big disappointment after a long train ride to Raleigh, NC. The hostess was not very polite with my party of 6. We were not greeted with a welcome or hello. The 1st thing out of his mouth was "do you have reservations & we cannot accommodate a party of 6"; when their were empty tables available. Then he immediately said the tables were reserved. He said we could eat outside (Very hot with no covering) or at the bar but didn't believe he had enough seats at the bar until another hostess said we have seats at the end. I really felt uncomfortable and out of place in this restaurant but my family was hungry, so we opt to stay. I ordered a BLT with tater tots and my tots were not hot, so I placed another order & it was not hot as well. My granddaughter's waffle was cold with a lump of butter that never melted & my sons shrimp & grits were lumpy. Not the place for my ethnic family. We stayed for over an hour for brunch and no guest came to sit at the reserve table that could have accommodated a party of 6. So I'm assuming this table would be reserved all day! I was impressed with the waitress: She took 6 orders without writing anything down and had all the orders correct. We did leave a big tip for her however; the hostess was short & almost rude when he looked in our faces, as we didn't belong inside. I will not be going back again. Respectfully SJ

Rod H: First time I've eaten there although I've heard much about them. Very community-minded. Big supporters of our fire departments. Service was friendly and efficient. Food was good and portions were generous. Will return.Well, I went back... Did the prices jump? Seemed significantly more expensive. Now more 'luxury' than 'value'. Very noisy at Sunday lunchtime.The killer was when the server came back and asked how much the tip was going to be. That may be what management tells them to do, but I strongly prefer to decide such things privately.No longer on my "return to" list.Parking: Plenty of parking. Located in a strip mall. Very easy access.

Tony Mostek: I hate to give it a 3 star rating, but the prices were way too high. $8 for one pancake is a lot. $3 for a soda at a cafe feels excessive to me. The food and service were good. The restaurant was interesting with all the firefighter memorabilia. If you don't mind paying a little more for cafe food, it's a decent place.Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More

Laraine Foo: Experience was wonderful until the end. Our three year old, while we were preparing to leave and to pay, was excited and laughing and playing. Hostess came to our table, spoke directly to our three year old saying “you’re disturbing my other guests.” Wow. We were making plans to come every Sunday after church, but I think we will find another restaurant. One more family friendly.Kid-friendliness: Do not bring your young children here if they make noise after eating chocolate chip waffles.
J. B.: Great place for breakfast, brunch, and lunch. Recently, I had the grilled chicken salad, which was fresh and satisfying. Each time we visit this fireman's themed restaurant, we enjoy the atmosphere, food, and down-home service.Food: 4/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More

This is the second time I've had the same experience.. And it was mediocre food!! If you're looking for a small town Cafe, this isn't it.

Plates Neighborhood Kitchen: what do users think?
Silvia Q: Amazing food and outstanding customer service. They never disappoint us. Their brunch and dinner plates are our favorites.
audrey mohlenhoff: Best meal we’ve had in Raleigh hands down. My husband and I shared the breakfast burrito and they were so kind enough to split up the plates and give us each a sharing of guac and potatoes. The tortilla was fresh and so were the avocados. Our kids had the egg sandwich and loved every bite. Can I also add the bacon was phenomenal?! Coffee was great too highly recommend the cinnamon flavoring. Just all around great service and atmosphere.

dan smith: I’ve been here three times and had great food with great service every time . Their take on shrimp and grits might be the best I’ve had. Elevated from its humble origins to create more complex flavors without being busy. On my second visit I had the breakfast burrito. And I’m not going to say they elevated the breakfast burrito :) I will say it was a collection of simple ingredients that were cooked near perfection. Fluffy eggs with a bit of chorizo and veg on a thin flour tortilla that was so fresh I had to ask if they made it in house (they don’t). Most recently I came in for dinner. I had the catfish and my wife had the chicken pot pie. The catfish was superb. Cooked perfectly served beautifully on a bed of veg and broth all seasoned on the light side of perfect. The pot pie filling was delicious. I prefer a standard pie crust over a puff pastry topper but it was still a good dish. And the sticky toffee pudding is the comeback dish, mmmmmmm.
