Side Hustle Bar

"Outstanding. Excellent drinks and some of the best Mexican food in Salem. The Mulitas were insanely good! Think superb taco truck meets bar meets club. Owned by a local family and we’ll run. Definitely worth your bucks and support! Update. Have been here several more times since original review. Outstanding each time. Food is unbelievable, their house made hot sauces are incredible and I really hope they bottle and sell them! If you come here for water only, then you’re missing the point of eating out."

"Definitely not what I expected in a good way. We'll start with the positive. The Mexican food is definitely elevated. The handmade chips, guacamole and salsa are off the chart. The prices are very very reasonable because they use extremely high quality ingredients and even the tacos have a ton of meat that are not full of gristle and fat. They have a Patron margarita flight for only $35. It is a great way to try several different drinks at once with top shelf tequila. Great value as well! Service is a little hit and miss when it's busy. They need a couple of Rockstars in there. That would instantly change the environment. Food is great though!!!"

"I have been in here a few times and it has always been great. The food is authentic Mexican the drinks are great. Will be going back soon Paulina was very attentive and made us feel at home."

"If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would. ❤️ We tried this place out because we met Marcie at the fair( she said he works here ) and she hyped this place up so much. We were not disappointed at all ! The service is outstanding and the food is AMAZING, it’s hard to put the food down once you’re full because of how GOOD it is. I’d HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone looking for good food/drinks downtown ."

"It looks good, but it's still in its infancy I think. The TVs only showed one sporting event with the others on regular TV or nothing at all, and the bartenders seemed new and inexperienced. I think that the successor to Brown's Towne still has a way to go, but it's not a bad start. Update: in response to the above review, I was invited back by the owner for food on the house. And I have to have their tacos are pretty great! They definitely don't skimp on the meat filling that's for sure, and the chorizo wasn't really greasy like I've seen a lot before. Another first for me is they also give you an assortment of toppings and sauces in addition to the usual lime, onion, and cilantro. The fact that the owner would reach out to someone to make an okay review become a great one really says a lot about how she views customers and her business. It'll be nice to have another regular location downtown."
