Small, funky, fun, and fabulous! Fresh squeezed juice, fresh fruit pancakes, seasonal specials with locally sourced food. Yum! More

This place rocks - always consistently great food. Have the flavored coffee special - and the daily specials are always not to be missed. Dave the host is the best. Weekends after 9 AM- always have a wait with complementary coffee. More

I'm gonna get severely criticized for this review - it's almost sacrilegious. This place has a huge following and is regularly crowded, with a long wait time to get seats. Two close friends of ours - who are both gourmets - frequent it. Nevertheless, I personally cannot give this place any praise. The interior is shabby, the breakfasts are derivative,... More

Every visit to Ann Arbor includes a trip to Northside Grill for breakfast. Good service and real food in portions that satisfy but do not overwhelm. They are always busy, so you may have a wait. Free coffee is there for you while you wait. More

We seldom go out to breakfast, but decided to go out on a Sunday morning. With Flim Flam closed, we decided to try Northstar, having often seen lines. No wait at 8:20 AM, place was 1/3rd full. One omelete, the other got eggs, bacon, sausage and a plate of very large pancakes. Coffee choices include three different blends. Food was... More

Northside rocks. Good food, efficient & friendly service. Easy walk from downtown & campus. Great coffee & sweet that it's offered outside if you have to wait. More

I have been to most places around downtown Ann Arbor for breakfast and this place is one of the best. Both in price and quality. It's nothing fancy, just good food with nice staff. The only downside is that it does get really busy and you have to wait a little bit ( usually on Sunday mornings, holidays , and... More

Passed this place many times, today I popped in for lunch. Great warmly as I came it. Seated nearly immediately, water and menu on the table before I could get my coat off. My waitress, Christi, was by quickly and, being told this was my first visit, offered suggestions. I settled on the classic Reuben with fries on the side.... More

The food was good, not outstanding, but still satisfying. I just had a very bad experience with the lady who assigned seats. She treated customers with complete disrespect. I am not begging for food, I went to Northside grill to spend a good time and my money as well, and this just ruined the whole experience for us. More
