This is the one burger place I'd recommend to health-conscious foodies. They use Ohio raised grass fed beef. I read the ingredients in the ketchup - and I approve. All natural. This is the only burger place I go ever since I discovered it. Forget b spot. Today we had One Red Door and Chili Pepper burger. The former is a tad sweet due to the bacon / shallot aioli; the latter flavor profile slides towards tangy, proper for pregnant moms who craze sour. It is Not that spicy at all, and you can tell them to put the chili sauce on the side. I always ask them to cut the burger in half, as I feel it's easier to eat. When I was eating my second half of the burger today, I kept thinking "oh no, I'm finishing it already. I don't want this to end. I need to order another burger so I can keep on going!" I've also had Shawn's and Forrester in the past. For seafood lovers they have shrimp burger on the menu, and in the summer blue crab burger. While the food here has never let me down, the bathroom here is at a weird location, due to the limited space of the establishment. The soda/water fountain where the servers refill our drinks is one step away from the bathroom door, you have to open the door carefully so you can't hit a server; there was also a customer table right outside the bathroom. When I used it today, the hand soap was completely out. I'd take off one star for the hygiene concern.

Love the veggie burger! Finally a vegetarian meal that I can actually eat!

Amazing Burgers! Amazing brisket fries! Amazing service!
(5)Greg M.
Crazy good burgers. The place reminds me of Michael Simons B-spot. 14 beers on tap, milkshakes and burgers. And, without the pretense or wait often associated with his stores. I had the Sonoran burger- beef burger with crumbled Chorizo, cheese, guacamole, cilantro jalapeño mayo and tortilla strips. Yum. Wife had the Chili burger with 2 onion rings stacked about 5" tall. We sat at the bar at 1:00pm on a Saturday. Service was great, food came timely, and the milk shakes were to die for. Saw a Jennie's across the street....sorry, but not today.
(5)Doug J.
It's Flippen fantastic... Super friendly staff, I want their decorator to do my house. The menus are cool, and their brisket fries are out of this world and maybe the next one... The best part is they have Sprechter Root Beer I LOVE this place!
(5)Jenn S.
Very good burger. I went with my very fussy mom who usually goes to the Hudson location. She says much better than B Spot burgers. I got the One Red Door Burger, She got the Forester. Both were cooked just as we requested. We also shared the Truffle Fries that everyone raves about. I was hoping they'd be crispier. I even asked for extra crisp. Not overly impressed, but I'm not that into French fries. It was very noisy which was odd because it was mostly empty as we went for a late lunch. I'd go again to try some of their unique burger selections.
(4)Todd B.
my 7 year-old daughter was @ work with me & said she was hungry for a cheeseburger so, i asked her if she wanted a little kiddie burger or a really good big kid burger she wanted the big one so we came to flipside great burgers! outstanding fries! perfect onion rings! some of the best not-so-mini corn dogs insane shakes! if you haven't already, get to flipside!
(5)AC F.
The best burgers I've ever had. We go here often. The staff is very friendly. The food is delicious. I guess if you think a burger is a burger then maybe this isn't the place for you but if you like a good burger this is the best place. (Sorry Michael Simon. I love Lola and Lolita but B Spot is not even half as good as FlipSide. Their milkshakes and the fries are great too. To make me like it even more you can call ahead for seating during peak times at this location and even if there is a wait they will text you so you can walk around while you wait. Love it!
(5)Emina H.
This is my favorite burger place in Cleveland. And, it's not even in Cleveland. Well worth the drive to chagrin falls. The burgers are amazing. Especially when compared to the B spot, which everyone will tell you is the best burger spot when you come to Cleveland. My favorite burger at flipside is the forester. Great choice for someone that loves mushrooms. Great addition for this particular burger is Brie. Also, a burger here is not complete without a side of truffle fries. The last time I was here, they told me they're opening a new location in the flats, so excited!

After 4 1/2 years without red meat, I broke down for a Flipside burger. Specially, the burger named flipside. This burger made me a believer. It's as if all burgers before it treated me badly, and this one showed me I could love meat again. I have grown accustomed to the color and texture of turkey and veggie burgers, so to see the grey juicy hunk of beef on my bun (I got it well done) was strangely intriguing. This burger also came with cheese, onions, and bacon, but I held off on the bacon (not going too meat crazy just yet). In a word, it was delicious. At the suggestion of the waitress, my boyfriend went with the Shawn burger which had bacon and an egg, which he also loved from the first bite. These burgers are seriously grilled to perfection and dressed to impress. We ordered a plate of onion rings to start and a plate of fries with the burgers. Both were pretty good, but next time we'll just go with one. Each order was more than enough for 2 people. Bravo, FlipSide. I may not be ready to completely dive back into the world of Ron Swanson, but thanks to you I may just tip toe back in every now and then.

Went here with my boyfriend on a friend's recommendation of "the best burger of my life". The setup is kind of awkward and we sat at the bar rather than sitting at a table that seemed to be in everyone's way. We had a strawberry milkshake which was a little too icy and not quite a strong enough flavor of strawberry. It did have a nice piece of shortbread in it. The truffle fries were SO flavorful! We'd have liked them a bit crisper but they were definitely good. My burger, the flip side, was amazing! It was made with grass fed beef and had aged cheddar and bacon. Although it was messy, it was worth it! My boyfriend had a burger with a fried egg on it which he enjoyed a lot. We would definitely go back.
(5)Amanda L.
The wait was pretty long, although we took advantage of the "call ahead seating". We were seated outdoors and this was pretty annoying as some people were standing around us real tight and it was weird. This place is very small. They also don't serve alcohol outside, which we didn't know until we were seated. We ordered a salad, mini corn dogs, onion rings, fries and burgers. It cost me $20 for a burger, o-rings and a coke. The regular cheeseburger was boring, and they are stingy with the toppings (pickles, tomato and lettuce). It was still good, though, and it was cooked perfectly. The onion rings were amazing, and the fries were tasty, too. My pal loved the corn dogs and the salad was also very delicious and the presentation was good. The service was excellent. It's a good place; but don't go for a plain ol' boring burger like I did, order one of the fancy ones. :)
(4)Russell B.
Good burgers. Good beer list. The onion rings were the best I can remember.
(5)Gary G.
All the burgers are great, excellent beer menu. The chili pepper burger is incredible, the triple cooked fries and the onion rings are great accompaniments.
(5)Adam L.
I was really looking forward to trying this concept. I had looked up the menu online previously. I am closer to the hudson location but ended up at this one randomly. Anyways. This one is a strange set up. A split level restaurant. With medium high tables on the upper level. That's right they are in between high back chairs and regular chairs... Why? what is the point of this? The restroom, well at least the only one I saw as on the very small bottom level. How someone who has a walker or wheelchair could comfortably eat there I have no idea. People have raved about the burgers at this place. I got myself a simple burger. Burger bun and some ketchup. Sweet potato fries were shared. The burger itself came with a tomato, lettuce and pickles on the side. .When I ordered my burger the server said a little above medium for you okay? No its not your actually supposed to automatically cook a burger to at least medium well unless specifically told not by the customer. Its actually a standard.You can't even suggest something less than medium well. The customer must do it. Okay pet peeve here. The vegetables were wilted. How does a pickle wilt? I will tell you how. They store the vegetables in their own juices so they get water logged. Its not technically a health hazard but it destroys the taste of the vegetables and its just gross. Onto taste . The burger was just okay. It really was not anything special. I honestly do not get what all the hype is about. I could probably get a better burger at Five Guys. At least there you can see their meat is freshly ground and formed in front of you. Their veggies are fresh. And the Fries are fresh cut from potato's stored at the location. Flipside's sweet potato fries were over fried. I was trying to find the flavor of a sweet potato fry. I couldn't just got burnt fry. The server was okay. The host was young. That's about it. Don't know if she was hired because of how she presents herself or what but hosting didn't seem like her area. No have a good meal. thanks for coming. Just here you go? Here you go? Your report card filled with F's. here you go , your bill for the repairs to your car? Sounds like something bad is coming after. Here you go.. Would I go back here. Maybe. I wouldn't rush. But I would choose a place like Five guys over this place any day. Its a shame to. Great name, Great feel, great concept. Awfully put on. Its like hearing your local theater is going to do Phantom of the Opera and finding out the performance is not that good.
(2)Luke K.
The smokehouse with brisket was One of the best burgers I've ever had. I must say better than B Spot. Sweet potato fries were awesome but a little pricey. Trendy location and decor with solid service. One star off because the cheapest beer on tap was $6 and most were over $7. Come on, This isn't New York City.
(4)Jenny G.
So good. So incredibly good, just being prompted by Yelp to create this review - I'm hungry thinking about FlipSide. I wouldn't say it's the 'kid friendliest' place at first look - but I came in, hungry & brave with my 3 children (7, 3 & baby) and they were accommodating. Super fast, kid menu & really nice. I like being able to take my kids out to good places - without suffering on quality of food & experience. The burgers were the best I've had, locally for sure. Top 5 of all time? Absolutely. Only disappointment? I didn't try a milkshake - next time, for sure.
(4)Clayton C.
Truly the single best burger place I've ever been. ALWAYS consider trying their Burger of the Month, which is usually incredible.
(5)David E.
Good burger, great beer menu. I'm veggie and they will make any burger with a veg patty. Love this place!!!!
(4)Chris W.
Cozy environment, great food, and craft beers. Everything is made fresh from scratch. They have a call ahead line so you don't have to long!
(5)Jennifer D.
Great drinks! Fun place and the most unique and amazing burgers we've ever had! Hubs had the Green Eggs and Ham and We shared fries. All the burgers are unique combinations and are made to order.
(5)Amanda K.
warning: do not come here when on a diet! The temptation to get a delicious juicy burger is overwhlming! We got salads, which were still scrumptious and filling. We couldn't pass up the opportunity to try the sweet potato fries though. They were crispy and perfect. Great beer selection, and the milkshakes sounds awesome as well. Service here was great. No complaints!
(5)Lin H.
To start off, let me mention that I am not a burger girl. Every now and then I will eat one, but it's definitely not something I crave. My grandpa and dad were raving about Flipside. They said it was one of the best burgers they have had. So, when my dad brought takeout home from Flipside I tried everything. Tempura Asparagus and Shiitake Mushrooms Flipside Onion Rings Caeser Salad Mixed Field Greens Salad Forester Burger Seared Rare Ahi Tuna Sandy As expected, I wasn't CRAZY over the burgers (but hey, that's my own issue). They were tasty enough where I at least took two bites of each, but my dad finished his portions. The salads were just usual and nothing crazy. The two appetizers were delicious though! Both perfectly battered and fried, and not too greasy.
(3)Tony T.
Great burger . Checked on yelp and they had 4 stars and lots of great pics. I called and got my Togo order came and it was freshly made. Ordered a UFO beer pretty good . The burger I got is the meat lover with 2 parties of 7 oz each Ohio grass feed beef with bacon and grilled onions and American cheese. Burger was amazing and HUGE. I seen the truffle fries that everyone is raving about ; amazing ! Will eat again when I come back to Ohio
(5)Ben V.
Best burger on the east side. Even with the proliferation of fancy burger joints flip side stands out. Large juicy burgers with interesting variants. I prefer the lamb and curry burger but have tried most of the menu items and have not been disappointed. Nice location in the heart of quaint chagrin falls. Large parking lot behind restaurant.
(5)Ashlee D.
We had appetizers before seeing a friend in A Chorus Line at the Chagrin Falls Community Theater. The food was great! We got the Mac and cheese with the BBQ brisket... OMG! So good! Everything is local which I appreciate and they had a good beer list for the boyfriend. We enjoyed the atmosphere and would go back again to try the burgers!
(5)Dieter V.
A nice gourmet burger shop with a quasi sports bar. We went in to catch lunch and a World Cup Game. I ordered a house made hotdog with sweet potato fries. The hotdog was double thick and juicy which paired perfectly with spicy mustard and a local brew. The fries were crisp with a nice spice treatment. The sides are sold separate and typically shared.
(4)Chris H.
Thought we'd try something new! What a find! GREAT burgers...cooked to perfection . Great service! Just a tad pricey but overall, AWESOME!!!
(5)Robert Z.
The burgers are awesome with wonderful creative choices. The buns are great which is a must for any great burger. But I also want point they have maybe the best grouper sandwich I've ever had! The grouper is flown in fresh daily!! Great shakes for kids and beer selection for adults.
(5)Geoff M.
Had the Black and Blue burger, Holy Macarow it was goooood!! Their fries and onion rings are also excellent. Everyone in our party (4) enjoyed the meal. The atmosphere was festive, went for lunch on 12/22. Loved the fact that while we were told it was a 20-30 wait minutes they would text us when our table was coming up, so we could walk around Chagrin Falls and it was only 20!! The service was good, and the only thing preventing a 5 Star, was one of the cokes served kept coming out flat and at one point she put coke in my tea refill and tea in my sons coke refile. Again flat. I still would highly recommend this place for a Great Burger and Fries if your in the area!!
(4)Laura S.
Best burger EVER! Homemade potatoe chips with blue cheese tasty. Eat here. Small and cozy. Brick walls wood floors.
(5)Lou D.

Also a great place to watch a game , great atmosphere and resonable prices ! We finsihed off the last visit with there shakes and they were outstanding !
(5)Danielle B.
My friend suggested we stop here as he has been to their other location. There was a bit of a wait, but considering the fact it was a Saturday night and the location is small 20 minutes wasn't bad. We sat outside and our server Michelle was wonderful. She made sure we had everything we needed even though we just got appetizers and couldn't order alcohol outside. I had the tempura asparagus and sweet potato fries. The food was great, though I hope I get a chance to go back and try a burger. My friend and I ended up sitting at the bar for a couple drinks and the bartender (M.J.?) was fantastic. He was friendly and chatty without making us feel like he was hovering. The craft beer was pricy but the selection is better than anything I'm aware of in the area. Five stars for the best service I have gotten in Chagrin.

My wife and I visited this new spot in Chagrin for the first time on Saturday for lunch. We knew it might be crowded but luckily got seated fairly quickly at a 2 top near the bar. This location is the former Joey's pizzeria and they have maintained much of the original charm of the old exposed brick walls. Unfortunately they greatly reduced the size of the space with the addition of an 8 seat bar and a staircase to the lower level. The result is a dining room that is WAY to small for the amount of seats they have. Our table was squeezed in between the end of the bar and another 2 top and closely against the 4 top with a bench along the wall. The result is that in order to access the two top behind us required the sever to reach around us ever time they wanted to deliver or retrieve something from that table. Not exactly a pleasant dining experience. We ordered beers which came from an extensive list and we enjoyed these immensely. My wife order a burger which is advertised as grass fed. Since we buy our beef for home from a local farmer that raises them on grass only we know the difference in taste from beef that is raise on grass and finished with grain (our good friends raise Angus beef and finish them with grain and we know that it doesn't taste as good as grass only). It was excellent in taste. She ordered fries which were good but not as tasty as ones we have had at Bar Cento or B Spot. I ordered the Chili and after ordering was told that they had just ran out. REALLY? How do run out on a Saturday at lunchtime ( it was only 12:30pm). Flustered I then decided on the hot dogs with mustard. I did not realize but when they arrived I found out they were corn dogs. Not the restaurants fault since I obviously did not read the menu in detail but I was expecting hot dogs and unfortunately I don't care for corn dogs. I peeled off the corn and found a decent hot dog. It snapped with a nice casing which homemade hot dogs should have. The mustard was tasty with the addition of stone ground mustard seeds. Overall the meal was fine. The dining experience was less than enjoyable with the space constraints and the value was not that exceptional. We will probably give it another try but unless we are unwilling to drive a few miles we are more likely to go to B Spot or perhaps nearby Ricks for a burger and better dining experience.
(2)Heather B.
Fantastic chili pepper burger with a fried onion ring that remained crisp. Great spices and herbs on fries and a yummy sweet and salty milkshake. Friendly and attentive servers too.
(5)Brian C.
FlipSide has one of the tastiest burgers in town. I have ordered the fried egg topped "Shawns Burger" the past eight or so times going there and cant stress how good it is. Also I get the BBQ Brisket Mac and Cheese, which is by far the best thing on the menu. They have a rather chilled atmosphere with a good selection of good beers. You certainly can taste the fresh ingredients. We try to go early because of the first come first serve seating, but it has always been an enjoyable place to go.
(5)Mr C.
Tasty burgers and shakes. bathroom setup is a little lame. Overall I would say this is a great place to bring the family
(5)Mark D.
We have been a regular since they opened in CF. last night we ordered chill and bit into a piece of plastic that was in the chill. Really disappointed and disgusted. While the chill was taken off the bill - it was a safety/choking issue. They did not go out of the way to fix the problem. Need to focus on quality.
(1)Bob L.
A couple of things I need to get out of the way: 1. It's not a cheap burger joint. This is real food done right. If you want to feed yourself, your wife and all of your brats for $30 go to Steak 'n Shake and save us all from disappointment. 2. It's small so there may be a wait. If you want fast service go to Red Robin. 3. If you don't eat burgers go somewhere else. At its core Flip Side is a burger joint. If you want a chicken sandwich go to KFC. 4. If you're in a hurry go somewhere else. They take their time here. Sit back, relax and enjoy yourdamnself. Your crappy life will still be there when you get back. I can't believe I'm doing this, a five-star review on a burger place? It's almost like I don't even know who I am anymore. Well, after our visit it just might be that I need to reassess. Let me set the stage. Saturday evening, 6:30ish, Chagrin Falls. First of all, this town is so picturesque and cute that I want to grab it and squeeze it until its Norman Rockwell, quaint Victorian wraparound porch head pops off. A little part of me hates myself for liking it. Sure, there was traffic and plenty of people but it was a Saturday night after all. What were we to expect? We drove around the corner and found a street spot. Perfect. Did I mention how entertaining it is to watch Northeast Ohioans attempt to parallel park? Upon entering we were immediately greeted by a young lady, iPad in hand, well-trained smile on face. Party of two, right. She started to walk us back to a two-top crammed uncomfortably between several full tables. There was no way in hell this would be good; my bubble is larger than most. We scanned the area for an exit strategy. Luck. There were plenty of seats at the bar. We took a pair of them and got down to business. The decor, where to start. I loved it. It's like a Restoration Hardware bomb exploded in here. Exposed brick, lace-up, leather-backed chairs, concrete bar top, wood paneling overhead, and warm earth tones. This is a place I could hang out in for hours unware of the time. The atmosphere was busy, pretty loud and energetic. Oh yeah, and it's small, really small. Probably 10 or so seats at the bar and a mix of high-tops for 40 more. I can see it getting too close for my comfort in the later hours. Our bartender, Nathan, was an honor to his craft and a delight (said using Will Farrell's impersonation of James Lipton). He's was either one hell of an actor or he really loved his job. Constantly smiling, engaging in just the right amount of banter and full of helpful information and recommendations, we couldn't have asked for a better face of the business. I've grown so used to complacency in the service industry that people like Nathan really stand out. He informed us that everything was made in-house (with a few minor exceptions like the buns and the Heinz ketchup), that their beef was Ohio-raised, all-grass fed and that they had plenty of Ohio craft brews available. I felt a tear forming in the corner of my eye... I love places that fly the local flag, especially when it comes to their protein. Ohio has an amazing farming industry that more of our eateries should use and a chef that takes the time to showcase them earns high marks in my book. Now on to why we came here, the food. We were both having a serious red meat craving so our expectations were high. Tonight would be about sharing so we split everything. Another classy move - the kitchen split our burger for us, no charge. Minor detail massive impression. Triple-Cooked Truffle Fries - These fries were perfect. I normally opt for the sweet potato variety but tonight we went old-school. A slight drizzle of truffle oil and a sprinkling of Grana Pandana cheese made these spuds sing. Crispy, moist, delicious and seasoned like they deserved to be. Mixed Field Greens Salad - Just because it was a burger and fries night didn't mean we couldn't work in some health, right? This one was simple; mixed greens, carrots, cukes and fried crisp shallots dressed in balsamic vinaigrette. Not a bad rendition if a tad overdressed for my taste. Perhaps the dressing on the side next time. Mikey Burger - If you've ever wondered what truly great beef tastes like, I mean beef so good topping it with condiments would be an insult, you need to taste a Flipside burger. It was cooked a perfect medium and topped with bacon, pepper jack cheese and a fried onion ring. It came with a garlic aioli on the side but we barely used it (was good on the fries, though). The bun was light and airy, the bacon was crisp. A perfect burger. I truly believe that five-star experiences, especially when it comes to where you eat, are a rare confluence of the right events at the right time. Even fantastic restaurants can have off nights. Lucky for us, everything came together on this visit. Wonderful atmosphere, top-notch service and pitch-perfect food. We left full, happy and wondering when our next visit would be. What more could one ask for?
(5)Carol M.
Burgers are excellent. Fries and onion rings are excellent. Drinks are perfect. Wait is typically too long and if you are not willing to wait for an hour+ for a burger, then don't go at a prime eating time.
(4)Ron T.
I have been here several times and have never been disappointed. The place is small so seating might be tight but its worth the wait if you can. The burgers are great - I love a gourmet burger with a fried egg and my wife loves the veggie burger. The shakes are great for the kids. Outside of the great burgers, this place has a nice selection of craft beers.
(5)John K.
I liked the burgers, wait staff was fine. However, I never figured out the word or words that meant, "cook it thoroughly so there is no red". I would go back again and use that line since "well" did not cut it.
(4)Beverly M.
The sweet potato fries were perfect. The macaroni was good enough for my two year old and a really large portion. I ordered the burger with spinach, an egg and basil mayo, it was fantastic. The decor was fun and it was really busy which gave it a festive air. Con- no changing table in the restroom.
(5)Lucy B.
I love the idea of local, grassfed beef burgers and a satisfying, casual meal before some Jeni's icecream across the road. Unfortunately, the ambiance at Flipside isn't my cup of tea: the restaurant is like a sports bar -- loud music and TVs everywhere. Why not some decor with a nice, artisan feel to reflect the food? So on our second visit, we got the burgers to go, and ate in the park across the river -- this was more pleasant, except that the fries were stale by the time we ate. As for the burgers themselves, the meat is good and there are some interesting toppings (shitake mushroom, blue cheese, etc), but the buns are just cheap white bread, as a previous reviewer has said. The burgers overall don't have much of a wow factor, in my opinion. Nice onion rings, though.
(3)Michelle B.
I'm going all in on this one. And it is due to more than just amazing food. Our server was a professional--that was clear from the start. We ordered a date milkshake to split and the lovely young lady brought us our milkshake to share divided between two cute glass drinking cups, each with its own spoon and straw. Now that is what you call service. I was very pleased. I was even more delighted after I tasted the concoction, which easily rates 5 stars in my book. Rich vanilla ice cream with bits of dates throughout, giving the shake a little taste of heaven in every sip. Yum. I ordered the Louisiana Shrimp Burger. This was my second visit to Flipside, but I had not been there in over a year, I would say. The burger was divine. Succulent shrimp in a thick patty form, with pickles, a tomato, and lettuce. The only things that were less than great I avoided. These were 1)a fried green tomato that looked to be overly greasy. Because my stomach reacts unwell to greasy fare, I de-fried it by removing the breaded and fried part of the green tomato. The other qualm was a creamy sauce on the side that came with the shrimp burger. I do not like cream sauces and so I passed on that puppy. Otherwise this place rocks. Will return.
(5)Mike S.
Bartender was nice. Burger way oversalted. Decent quality meat, but why all the salt? And still don't why places have to butter the buns so much, if at all. My fault, should have asked for no salt/ no butter. Not terrible, but don't think I would go back.
(2)Dan F.
Awesome place!! Burgers are amazing, but the corn dogs and fries are unbelievable!! My date had the grouper sandwich and she was in heaven.. The staff was extremely attentive and checked on us continuously throughout the night to refill water glasses and to make sure we were okay! Great food and a terrific staff have made this place one of my favorites in the area!!
(5)Elana B.
LOVE this place. Food is stellar and so is the service. They don't take reservations, but will text you when your table is ready so you can walk around Chagrin Falls. Usually a long wait (45 minutes) on the weekends if you arrive between 6-9.
(5)Anna J.
Worth every extra lb you will gain from this place! :)
(5)Kevin H.
The burger was cooked great. They cook their burgers medium well unless you ask otherwise but I asked for medium and it came out with just the right amount of pink. The burgers were amazing but the fries were just whatever.
(4)Anthony T.
Good atmosphere. Good food. Wasn't a long wait for the table or the food. My one gripe would be the Mac and Cheese. Not good. Very bland. I got the turkey burger with aged cheddar and onion rings added. The onion rings could have cooked longer. But good over all. My GF got the flip side burger. The burger was good over all but the BBQ sauce was way too sweet. I would come back and recommend to a friend

This was the first time visit after hearing about it from friends and family. We put off going because of the drive, but it was definitely worth it. The ambiance is casual with a rustic/industrial type decor. The food was phenomenal. My wife got a hotdog and as she put it "it was the best hotdog I have ever had." I ordered the Meat Master burger and found it unsettling that the waitress giggled and followed up with "Awesome!" When it arrived I understood the giggle. It was two 7oz patties with a late bun in between the patties. It was more than a mouthful. It was delicious, though a bit too filling for me. We shared an order of fries which were quite tasty. We will definitely return in the future.

We new it was going to be expensive going in. $45 for 2 burgers, a poor attempt at a grilled cheese, 2 sodas, fries and onion rings. We had a 2 year old with us and they sat us at a 2 top, ever try sitting at a 2 person table with 3 people and one of them is a 2 year old? Yeah, its never fun. But we saw three 4 tops with 2 people at them.....emmmm, not sure what happened here. If I am going to spend $45 bucks on a burger lunch. Please clean the cobwebs off the lights and boogers off the walls.

Best restaurant in Hudson. Incredible value for the money. Awesome service, delicious food, great drink selection. This place is a tribute to the principle of doing one thing really, really well. If you go here, you are going to get a burger. Oh, no, burgers aren't your thing, you say? They have lots of other choices, but you're missing the point if you don't get one of these delicious grilled patties. They are excellent, and all of the side dishes are great, too. I can't think of a negative thing to say. Yes, there is a line at peak hours but that just means you are guaranteed to get freshly cooked food. It's worth the wait. Stand by the bar and get a beer and you will be seated in no time.

Let me preface this review by saying that I am a big Michael Symon fan. I have eaten at a few of his restaurants in town and have always had great food and a wonderful experience. I completely respect his talent in this industry. That being said, if you asked me to chose between B Spot and Flip Side for a burger - I would chose Flip Side. I have been to both the Hudson and Chagrin Falls locations and have always had a wonderful meal. The burgers are seasoned and cooked perfectly. It's what you wished your burger tasted like when you attempt to make a gourmet burger at home. The buns used for the burger are the best, you know they are there but they are far from being overbearing hunks of bread that take over the whole burger. The selection of burgers is great. Something for everyone (including some chicken and fish options). And the turkey burger? Tastes way too close to an actual burger. Delicious! Both fries and onion rings are a great choice. You can't go wrong with either. And our picky toddler loves their Mac and Cheese. The reasons I give it 4 and not 5 stars are 1. Both the Hudson and CF locations are small. For such great food and the crowd it draws, you wish there was more space. I am getting the impression this is intentional based on the similar layouts. Get there early or plan to wait. But it is worth the wait. 2. Our service at CF was okay. It wasn't horrible and didn't ruin the meal, but it was clear that the waiter forgot our orders of fries and onion rings - so we had to wait a bit for those. And we had asked for shakes to arrive after the burgers were served, and he clearly forgot that too. Again, nothing that ruined the meal, but it is clear they are working out some kinks at the CF location. All in all, probably our favorite burger spot. We will be back more than our waistlines wish that we would. :)

Have already been to the new location twice and loved it each time. Great burgers, spicy pickles and fries. Can't wait to try a dessert - next time for sure!

We all had burgers. Really good!! Service was bad, though. Forgot part of our order. Didn't check back with us, though he seemed to have plenty of time to kick it in the back. Will go back & hope for different server. Prices what you'd expect in Chagrin Falls.

I loved this place. I was in Chagrin Falls visiting my dear friend and she suggested Flipside. I am not a fan of burgers and fries and I try to avoid them like a plague. Burgers remind me of greasy, flavorless and characterless food one gets at gas stations. But my apprehension lasted but only on the drive to Flipside. As soon as I walked in through those doors, a flavorful aroma caught me by surprise. And like many others, I too scanned the plates of food being devoured by others. My eyes went straight for the gigantic pile of Onion Rings. They looked like no other onion rings I have ever seen. So obviously it was clear that I order them. Which I did. And they were AMAZING! They were beautifully spiced. (I love Spices, People!) They were crunchy, wholesome, non greasy deliciousness. Then came the star of the show! There are amazing Burger combinations - from your loyal beef burgers to new age salmon burgers. I went straight for the Lamb Burger with Mint Chutney. It was juicy, succulent meat with a bold mint sauce. Flipside does not hold back. And I love it. To wash it all down, I decided to try something unconventional and trendy - The Kombucha! The Unity Vibration Ginger Kombucha. Hmm... so for hardcore Beer lovers... be warned. You might not like this! It is too sweet. And it tasted like one of those drinks that your friends messed around with just to see your reaction. But for the adventurous and open hearted folk, try it. Once. Overall, definitely a must try place. Has a great relaxed vibe, a bar area if you feel like you need some uplifting, and really nice folk. Next time I am in Ohio, I will make sure I find my way there.

Love downtown Hudson area. So, my family & I decided to give this place a shot. The service was great.

Fabulous! Love the hot pepper burger, chicken sandwich, sweet potato fries and craft beer!! Yummy food and fun atmosphere.

I don't care which ranch from where the beef originates (in this case, Niman) if it tastes great. Flipside cares, as they do about a lot - the quality of their ingredients, for one thing. I've sampled quite a few of their sandwiches and always walked out happy. Don't skip the fries, either. Worth the artery-clogging. If you're a beer fan, you're also in luck here. The vibe is dark and the diners are varied. Stop in. A nice, varied menu.

This place is probably my favorite burger joint in the area! When I heard they were opening up another place in chagrin falls I was ecstatic. Their burgers are fantastic, their corn dogs are to die for, and their beer selection is fantastic. Everyone I ever go with is a hug fan Flipside, and although during the dinner rush it can take a half hour to be seated the place is well worth it. P.S. watch out for that double pattie burger of theirs, it's delicious but gigantic. Make sure you are going in hungry when you order it!

I've been to the Hudson location many times for lunch. I just happened to be in the CF area so I figure I try this location for dinner. Upon entering I do see that overall this location is bigger than Hudson but just as crammed or cozy. The place was packed and people kept coming in. The hostess was very pleasant. Took less than 15 minutes to get a table. My server was also very pleasant and attentive. I don't remember ever seeing the Red door (I even asked one if the hosts if the Hudson location had this on their menu because I don't remember ever seeing it) burger on the menu in Hudson but I decided to try it. Although from the description it did not sound that great. Suffice it to say that this the best burger I've ever had here! I would highly recommend this place. The whole experience from beginning to end was very pleasant and smooth. The staff is super friendly and attentive and the food is fantastic! There is a different level of service at this location compared to the Hudson one.

The idea of eating local, grass fed beef sounded good, so we went for some burgers. On a warm Spring Thursday night, the wait was about 20 minutes. I was looking forward to a good burger, but was disappointed-- the burgers (a Smokey and a Forester) were both tasty, but the buns were a cheap white bread that quickly became soggy and fell apart, leaving a mess in our hands. Surely if they cared about the meat, they should care about the bun? Why not some artisan local Ohio-grown sourdough? I'd give it 4 stars then. Why not 5 stars? 1) the atmosphere: large TVs in every direction (does everything have to look like a sports bar? that's not what most customers are there for and they are distracting), music too loud; 2) the waitress never gave us a smile and was hard to get a hold of. On the other hand, the seating host and bartender were friendly and helpful, which kept this from being a 1 star review.

Great burgers.Great craft beer selection. Staff is friendly! I recommend the Chili Pepper Burger

I went here 2 times in the past week trying something different both times. Both meals were excellent due to quality of ingredients and the details. My out of town guests loved their choices as well. I had the California turkey burger one day, and the blackened grouper with fries and mushroom gravy. I would order both again!

First visit on a Saturday afternoon. No wait, started with the beer list. Having been to places like Melt, Beer Engine, and B-Spot plenty of times, I was expecting a good selection. First thing that sticks out is the price - closer to Chicago/New York prices than Chagrin Falls. Six to Eight bucks for a decent pint or 10 oz glass of stronger brews. Ordered a few favorites along with burgers and fries to share. Burgers were ok but overpriced at nearly ten bucks a piece ala carte. When checking out we noticed that we were overcharged for both beers by a buck each - making the expensive brews even more expensive. Seven bucks for a 12 oz wheat draft and an IPA brewed in town is too much. 45 bucks for two non-special draft brews, two burgers, fries to share. I think I will stick with b-spot next time.

ive been here a lot and was really impressed with the first few months they were open but recently this place has come up short. its like you have to stare someone down or be extremely pushy to pick up a to go order from the bar. last time i visited i was told my order would be ready in 15 mins. when i got to flipside i sat at the counter for an extra 10 mins waiting for my food to be done. usually this wouldnt bother me but when i returned to my car i discovered i had received the wrong order. i returned the food in the pouring rain having to wait another five mins for my real food to be done. the second time i left and checked my food in my car and discovered no sauce came with my mikey and they put absolutely no slaw on my lamburger. i was extremely annoyed that i had to return to the restaurant once again to get what i asked for in the first place. when i told the bartender what happened and he inspected the food and turned to the kitchen. i heard one of the cooks say "i didnt do anything wrong" and i felt very uncomfortable. the bartender returns to me and says "yeah the slaw is actually on the burger and the only thing missing is the sauce but we gave you extra anyways." like he was doing me a favor. and he must of understood me because i clearly told him there was a lack of slaw not that it wasnt there at all! at this point i couldnt wait to get out of this place and was starving. i could not believe the troubles i experienced in 25 minutes of being in this establishment. i also contacted management through email over two weeks ago and i havent heard back. Get it together flipside seriously

Other than the three hour wait for a table, lack of space, noisy environment.; the burgers weren't the best. Not worth the wait.

I was really looking forward to this place. Even though I don't eat burgers anymore, I had heard good things, and knew they had other stuff like chicken and fish sandwiches. I love the decor and how they can open the front wall to let the outside in. We arrived around 4:30 on a Sunday for an early dinner and because the Chagrin Falls location is small, we ended up eating at the bar. The bartender was pleasant and we chit chatted before ordering. About 5 minutes after placing our order, he comes back and says there has been a computer glitch and he can't find our order. No problem, we tell him again. One burger, one blackened grouper sandwich and an order of fries to split. (Fries are a la carte at Flip Side.) About 10 minutes later our fries show up. As I am someone who has bar tended and waited tables, I know there's a desire to have the entire meal show up within a minute or two of each other, so I wait to eat any fries. Plus, I want to eat my fries WITH my sandwich. So I wait, and wait, and after about 5 minutes, i ask the bartender if we are going to get our sandwiches soon. He checks and says another 5 minutes, so I ask him to get us a fresh order of fries with our food since that's how we ordered it. He takes the original fries away and after about 10 minutes our burger and fish sandwich show up, but no fries. The bartender says nothing, so I proceed to eat slooooowly, hoping the fries will show up. (We're all seeing the irony here, right?) Of course the bartender, despite never being more than 10 feet away from us, never checks back to see if everything is OK. So eventually I finish my sandwich and flag him down asking if he was ever going to bring us our fries or not. He gets this flustered look, goes and yells at someone in the kitchen, but still no fries appear. After another minute or two, I tell him to forget it and cancel the fries. He then offers to take them off the bill. Duh! Of course you will, so thanks for nothing. He then promises to really take good care of us next time. Isn't he supposed to do that every time? My wife thought her burger was very good. My blackened grouper sandwich was average. The size of the bun dominated the small piece of fish, so it was fairly bland. It was also way overpriced. For $15 I was expecting a much better piece of fish, plus sides were extra. I typically give restaurants a second chance, and I probably will do so for Flip Side Burgers, but my first experience was very disappointing. There was nothing difficult about what we wanted, they just dropped the ball over and over.
