This was our first visit and we loved it. Great little find and the fact that your food is original and healthy means we will be back! Very reasonably priced as well.

I hadn’t been to Westside Local for brunch in years and I have no idea why I stopped! I had the most amazing pumpkin French toast with cinnamon whipped cream that both I and my toddler loved. Staff was wonderful! Overall, an awesome experience.

We enjoyed an exceptional meal. Paul, our server, was top notch. Our great disappointment was we were expecting brunch options as offered from their website and Open Table. Saturday late morning…no brunch options.
