The atmosphere is so unique and so fun to eat and chat with to friends! Our service was top notch and the waitress made sure we were well taken care of. I cannot rave about the food enough. This was the half order of French toast and man was it more than enough. They were thick slices that were absolutely delicious. The brown sugar bacon was a hit as well. I definitely recommend checking this place out!

I had the delightful experience of joining a group of friends for dinner at the Westside Local last week! Our server was Miranda, and she was FABULOUS! Even though it was a Friday evening, and there was a group of us, she took care of us as if we were the only diners in the restaurant. Some of our group asked for substitutions, and there were several questions about the menu, and we all needed separate checks--Miranda handled it all with grace and charm and a smile. She was friendly, efficient, and genuinely committed to ensuring we had a great time while we were there. I appreciate her taking such good care of us--she was a major reason that we had such a wonderful evening. The food was AMAZING! I'd never been to the Local, and I was very impressed with their farm-to-table menu and the varied offerings. I had the grilled cheese and tomato soup, and my meal was absolutely delectable! The bread on my sandwich was toasty without being greasy, and the cheese was ooey-gooey delicious, and the tomato soup was so thick and rich and well-seasoned that it was almost a tomato stew. :-) I paired it with a petite Syrah which was equally delightful. My dinner companions all raved about their choices; one of the gentlemen ordered the bison meatloaf and shared a bite with me, and it was exquisite--tender and flavorful. Several members of our party had tater tots with their meals and couldn't finish them, so I volunteered to take them home; I had them the next day and can vouch for how tasty they are! :-) Toasty without being greasy, and nicely seasoned so that they don't even need catsup. The ambience at the Local is so warm and welcoming; the vibe is almost that of a family gathering in the dining room at the holidays. The dining area is small enough to feel cozy, but the high windows and ceiling (they took out the original first floor, so now the walls extend up through the second floor) keep the space from feeling enclosed. It's still light and airy and extremely comfortable. After my first time at the Local, I'm definitely coming back! I can't wait for my next great meal in such a great space and with such great service! Thank you!

Always great food and drinks. Amazing outdoor area. Expect to wait on weekends as this is a hot spot. A must try is the tots!

First time at Westside Local and it was great. The patio was covered which helped with the rain and they allowed our friend's dog to join us too. They even have beer for the dogs (water bowl). We started with the poblano spinach dip and elote tots. Both starters were amazing and I would for sure come back for just that. The entrees were well sized and delicious, but there were too many great options. I wish they had an entree platter so you can try as many mains as you like. The food was great, the service was friendly and inviting, and I want to come back again very soon.

We dined here back in July of 2023. Loved the location, atmosphere, and food here. Some creative twists on comfort foods that we really enjoyed. Specifically the fried portobello sandwich was great, with a nice contrast of textures and flavors. Shout out to the fried chicken sandwich which also was well prepared and tasty. We went for the gespacho watermelon/tomato soup which was super refreshing as a side. The drinks were okay but expensive, I'd recommend skipping if you're on the fence about ordering an alcoholic beverage. The elote tater tots were tasty, but not as reminiscent of the flavoring as we expected. Overall was a positive experience for us when we dined in.

I was shocked how I didn't discover this wholesome spot earlier! The Westside Local is a cute and rustic spot with the best lunch menu. I got the Ruben sandwich with tater tots. The sandwich was super juicy, meat was perfectly cooked and bread was toasted nicely. I would recommend getting their signature fries rather than the tater tots as their fries have the best seasoning and I couldn't stop eating! Our service was great and the server gave us great customer care even with the many tables she had. Please try this spot if you're in the area and want great food!

Decided to come here on a Friday night and did set up a reservation since it was recommended but the restaurant wasn't packed by any means so one wasn't needed. The cocktail menu was a little underwhelming, nothing sounded too good so i just asked for our waitress to recommend something and i was a little disappointed with what i had but I definitely don't hold that against the place - the drinks just were not for me. Ordered the elote tater tots to start off my meal and this was amazing. Tater tots are an easy thing to mess up but they definitely elevated the flavor of this dish. The pickled jalapeños with the crispy tater tots definitely made it for me. The jalapeño and jam burger was super good too, the saltiness of the bacon paired perfectly with the sweet jam. My only complaint of the night was the mac and cheese - it just didn't have much seasoning and unfortunately was bland. I wouldn't be opposed to coming back here again.

Friend and I came here for a quick bite before a show at the Kauffman. We split macaroni and cheese and the honey sriracha chicken sandwich with truffle fries. They have a lot of cocktail and drink items to try ! The honey sriracha chicken sandwich was spicier than I anticipated, but very delicious! The mac and cheese had a lot of breadcrumbs and was a large portion! Super cute and nice spot to try!

Loved this place! Service was great, our waitress consistently checked on us. I was indecisive about what drink to get so it was nice she followed up and I was able to get my delicious pineapple cran mimosa. We got the kale wrap and sriracha honey chicken sandwich. The kale wrap was amazing, perfectly dressed. I'd defiantly come back for it and add chicken if I got it solo. The chicken sandwich grew on me and made a great leftover. Restaurant has a great ambiance so perfect for a weekday lunch or meet up with a friend or colleague.
