Northside Cafe
2950 10th Ave N, Grand Forks, ND
Crema's Take
“Northside Cafe is a dependable breakfast and lunch spot where the omelettes and pancakes earn consistent praise, and the generous portions of classic American comfort food hit the mark more often than not. The cozy, family-friendly atmosphere and quick service make it an easy choice for a casual meeting or weekend breakfast, though coffee here is straightforward rather than exceptional—it's the food and friendly staff that keep locals coming back.”

Nice place to have breakfast, lunch, or dinner. I recommend having their breakfast food items. Their omelettes and pancakes are my favorites. They always have great service and they get your food out to you very quickly and efficiently!! Definitely recommend!!
Stopped in for a quick bite: the place is cozy, the staff were polite, and the order came out fairly quickly. The coffee was fine, and the dessert was decent too. Overall, though, it was an average experience: the food tasted a bit bland, and the portions weren’t very big for the price. Also, it was pretty noisy inside, and the tables are close together. It’s okay if you’re nearby, but I probably wouldn’t go out of my way to come back.
I have learned whenever I see a help wanted “cook” sign on the front door of a restaurant to turn around and leave. Horrible food horrible. Steak and eggs-raw steak not cooked to order (definitely not a sirloin) and eggs were runny. American breakfast fry’s cooked hours ago but they threw them on my order anyway. Stay away or at least wait until the help wanted sign isn’t on the front door.
Menu was big with plenty to pick from. Stayed with breakfast and it was okay. The corned beef hash was very tasty and the sausage gravy with hash browns was to thick and over salted. Good portions and the service was quick and friendly.
Basic, American foods done pretty decently, and the dishes are conservative enough that picky eaters won't have an issue here. Nothing is going to blow you away, but you'll leave satisfied. They do get busy here and there can be a wait, but the line seems to move fast.
