I had the Wild Black Sable tonight. It was unbelievably good. Three of out four people ordered this dish and everyone loved it. There were zero leftovers. Other dishes served were oysters from Maine and Ceasar salad. Everything was fabulous. I can't wait to go back.

All in all a great experience for our first time there and we are very much inclined to go back at some point over the Summer to try other items on their menu. The Wait Staff is very attentive including someone always walking through the dining areas to see how things are as well as to refill water, remove used plate settings and utensils and update you on the status of the next course.

Sidney is a wonderful restaurant in the quiet little town of East Berlin. I consider this a restaurant for those special occasions. The food was outstanding, it is not your typical meat and potatoes type of restaurant. There’s always something different on the menu. The chef is able to marry a lot of wonderful flavors together. You will not be disappointed!

It was hard to decide what to select from the menu. There are always multiple options one wants to taste. I decided on the CRAB CAKE, Neil style. Served with CAULIFLOWER MOUSSELINE, WILTED SPINACH, and a LEMON-DIJON CRÈME FRAICHE. It was the best I've ever had.
