Parkside is a locally owned and operated Downtown Raleigh Restaurant located at the entrance of the Warehouse District. Parkside is situated on the corner of West Martin and South Dawson streets across from historic Nash Square. It was this urban park, one of the four original parks in downtown that inspired the name Parkside.

Housed at street level and under the longest running neon restaurant sign in North Carolina you will find our doors, which have been the threshold to hospitality for this neighborhood for over one hundred years. Parkside believes in continuing this tradition in every way. From the warm red brick and reclaimed barn wood clad bar to the NC solid poplar tabletops, we want our guests to feel welcome. Whether you are sampling one of our 25+ beers on tap or enjoying our chef inspired locally sourced fare, your experience is our priority.

    The grilled chicken was not as tender as I expected; the entrance doors were dirty and the bathroom door lock was broken. The fries were great and others liked the short ribs melt.

    The food is just above adequate honestly. I wish I could give a Christmas gift dressed as a wonderful review but sadly, the restaurant is just that, kind of sad and nothing above average. Except for the mashed potatoes..those were slightly above average as they oddly resembled instant potatoes but had potato skins in them which threw me. I was confused as to why they were kind of delicious?? We ordered a side of mac & cheese also because it had been mentioned in reviews and honestly, it was gritty as if it was mac & cheese made with a cheese powder. I wouldn’t recommend it. However the meatloaf was yummy mostly due to the gravy it was topped with. The service was truly barely friendly but we understood because our server was working on Christmas Eve. Overall, I would never choose to return here for a memorable meal.

    Our waitress was great but they were on a wait when we got there, so got a drink at bar. Bartenders hardly greeted us and very slow with drinks.
