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!

Laid back quieter atmosphere perfect for Breakfast in my opinion. They just released a few new items so we had to try one of them. We went with the Philly Rolls with Queso & it was probably one of the best philly based items in Grand Forks I've had! Never had bad meal here, I usually go for the Northside Skillet or the Garbage Omelete with a side of Hollindaise but if they don't have Hollindaise that day I go for the Stuffed Country Skillet.

Excellent place for good home cooked food. Clean restaurant with excellent wait staff well worth a try if you're in Grand Forks. Great prices. I had the clubhouse with sweet potato fries,it came with really turkey, ham bacon, lettuce cheese,mayo and tomato. So good. Great portion sizes for seniors and regular folks . I will definitely be back next time I'm in town. Third time at this great American diner. Amazing as usual,I tried the Corn beef hash with hash browns and toast.and the biscuits and gravy. It was just amazing and full of flavor. Service was great as always. Please give it a try if you're here in Grand forks.
