Northside Cafe is one of the largest restaurants in Grand Forks. We are known for our lutefisk and lefse around Christmas time. Lutefisk is a Scandinavian dish made from codfish treated with lye before happily and is served with lefse – a popular Norwegian flatbread, usually made with potatoes. The menu at North Side Café ranges from items such as scrambled eggs with ham, chicken fried steak and old fashioned liver and onions. Customers have said, “It’s reassuring to be able to see cooks in white jackets and caps in the kitchen. And the restaurant itself is tastefully decorated.” Some have said that Northside Café with all of its windows has the feel of a cheery place. Windows on two sides bring in the light of the outdoors.

What was on the menu is not what I got. When I brought it to the managers attention, he seemed unaware of the issues. “Supply issues” of buns doesn’t cut it. Serving the wrong type of bun. What was given was not even prepared correctly. Business was not busy. Estimate only 25 customers. Eventually was given a correctly prepared sandwich, even though it was not the correct bread type declared on the menu. My friend had since finished his meal and I had lost my appetite.

Good food, good service, and our waitress, Dolly, was friendly and fun. Glad we took a chance and stopped by this morning. Before today’s visit, we had only been here twice; both times were shortly after the restaurant opened for business, and both visits were terrible. This one was perfect and a great way to start our day. Thanks to Northside Cafe and Dolly!

I go there every Sunday morning at 6:30 to have coffee with friends. The staff are nice and there are hardly any wait times for food.

The food is good. The consistency is questionable depending on the staff. I’ve had great wait staff and the opposite. I’ve had wonderful fluffy pancakes and small flat ones. Water served in a tall clean glass and a small cloudy plastic cup…. The facility it self is clean and comfortable. Ample seating for large groups.

Arrived at 5:30 pm on Thursday evening. Place was dead. My boyfriend and I were only table. We were greeted quickly. When ordering burgers, we asked to have onion rings with them. We were told “no; you can order as appetizer.” It was a flat out “no” instead of “I’m sorry; there’s no substitutions” or “you can substitute for extra charge” just a flat out “no.” Then we waited well over 20 minutes for our burgers. I saw a large take out order come out from the kitchen to the front and figured that was why our order was taking so long. After a few more minutes I had to flag the waitress down to ask about our order. She said there was a large take out order ahead of ours and it should be out soon. Burgers came out a couple of minutes later. They were hot, but fries were lukewarm. Waitress never came by to check on us. I understand if orders take longer than usual, but that should have been communicated when our order was taken. And you NEVER tell a guest a flat out “no.” And then to be ignored…. we won’t be back.
