Sideline Sports Bar & Grill

Nice enjoyable place with amazing food! Bartender is an absolute sweetheart and is friendly and courteous. Security guy at the door is weird. I asked him if he charges cover and he just looked at me. I asked him again and he just stared at me. Very strange. I still enjoy the bar and love the bartender and Jeff who runs the kitchen serves great food.

Just a solid, decent local dive bar that showcases San Jose's diversity; a DEI Cheers, if you will. I've sat next to gangbangers, Hells Angels and PhDs from IBM, often in the same night.

This is definitely a bar for the locals that's live near here, you walk in & the regulars know your new & not from the area, cause you get the looks not bad & awkward, you don't belong ones, it's the Hey! newbies in our local joint one, all smiles & when you enter. It's a pretty big bar, does not look like that at all from the outside, they have plenty of parking, out front or the back, where you can enter through the back door. Mixed drinks are worth the $ you pay & not too pricy for the alcohol or bottle beverages. They also have a kitchen where you can order some food (we didn't get any) They had 1 bartender but, it was a Tuesday night (slow) but there was a good amount of people in this place. Lots of TVs playing games & shows. They have a juke box, so that's cool that u can pick you music & hope it comes on while your there. Will definitely be back to this bar when I'm in the area.

Only been it to this place a couple of times and it was through the process of changing the ownership couple of years ago and you know what is been awesome unfortunately just getting old I haven't been there often but whenever anybody from out of town comes as a guest I usually take them to the spot to have a drink and it's not bad.

With the restrictions of COVID in place, Sidieline opened an outdoor, tented area with two tables and three high tops; two space heaters are included. Out on the sidewalk they had about 7 tables but space heaters were not next to all of them, making it a little chilly for some.We ordered beer and vodka cranberries and an order of chicken. Strips. The drinks were good and the chicken strips were average as well as the service. This is a hangout spot and the atmosphere is chill.I'd come back to hang out.

Slim pickings on the South side when it comes to bars, restaurants... well, everything for that matter. Divey neighborhood bar but we've always had a good time, staff are great and it became our regular office "offsite" meeting spot. I only wish their food menu was a tad better.

The food restaurant in here was delicious! They even gave us extra on the house to come back and return! There are 2 pool tables and we ate and shot around for an afternoon The restaurant chef came to check on us multiple times and was a very sweet older man. Could be Leslie Jordan's brother !

Do not go to this bar.Back then last October,They double charged me the same amount of $60 something,I called them three times to get my money back. Second time,last week, I had two drinks,one beer paid by cash and one paid by credit card.Here's the shit happened again,they charged me three different times.I called my credit service and canceled two on Sep 7,I just don't know why there was another one $63.36 on Sep 6.This place sucks.!!!

This place use to be such a relaxing fun safe place to go to but has turned into a complete DUMP Wangbanger spot. People who want to drink and look for fights. Security will turn the other way if you look intimidating! DO NOT go to this spot if you're looking to have a nice fun time. If you are looking for a fight want to get jumped by a bunch of idiots and have security do absolutely nothing then sideline is the spot for you! I'm leaving a star for the bartenders and cooks Aside from them, the rest of the staff is terrible security is an absolute Joke!

If you love bars where you feel safe and you have decent respectful people around this is not the bar for you. I personally love feeling like at any moment the want to be gangbangers that fill this place could send me to the hospital. The fact that security does absolutely nothing but sit on their thumbs makes the experience even more nerve racking. The bartenders don't know when people are dangerously intoxicated either, so the mix of disregard for patrons safety and that caveman that attend this bar make for such a pleasurable time. It's my favorite place to visit. Makes me want to take the toaster in the bath knowing places like this are allowed to operate in my city.
