About us
Brought to you by John Edward Gumbley (Bord’Elle) and the Jegantic team, the Farsides is an edgy new take on the restaurant and bar scene. Our blend of culinary styling sets the exotic far eastern flavours of Thailand’s shores crashing into the far Western Beaches of Hawaiian cuisine. The result of this fusion is something we like to call Thaiwaiian. A sumptuous combination of authentic Thai and Hawaiian delicacies, merging familiar flavours with elevated function.
Not only do we consider the Farsides to be a unique take on cuisine, we also aim to please with a brand new re-imagining of the Tiki bar concept. Our mixology program features no less than a dozen modern interpretations of classic cocktails you would normally only expect to find on the Islands.
Stepping into the Farsides will be like walking into our version of an alleyway in Brooklyn circa 1992. Complete with brick walls as high as the eye can see, fire escapes, graffiti laced facades and believe it or not our very own hand painted basketball court. Add a touch of the exotic with jungle like overgrowth set to the beat of 80’s & 90’s hip pop and nostalgic memorabilia from the golden age of rap and what you’ll find is The Farsides.

This is my 2nd time at Farsides. My first time was at the old port location. If you are a hip hop R&b lover , the décor & ambiance will hit the spot. We were a party of ~ 20 people that attended for a birthday dinner on a Saturday evening.
Exploring the group menu- for 65$ pp you share appetizers with other guests & then choose your own main course.
Appetizers included Imperial rolls, mango & beef salad as well as crispy chicken wings. All were average but great flavour -well presented. What I did not appreciate , the staff sharing how many portions we can have each . 1 egg roll only pp, 2 chicken wings pp 😂. What are we being served lunch at the cafeteria? Let the guests decide how many portions of an appetizer they want themselves! We shouldn't be told at this price point. We even had leftover appetizers for everyone to take home. Furthermore, we were served a beef slaw to certain members that shared they were vegetarian! The staff seemed young, appeared confused most of the time where the dishes should be served & did not seem to have a proper working knowledge of the menu . I would like to highlight, there was want gentleman that took the time to explain the mixup & apologized to our party for the mixup. He was genuine & his follow-up was appreciated.
To end-I ordered the Thai yellow curry as my main dish-the sauce was very sweet but portions were good. Loved the vegetables were well cooked.
Cocktails were extra but original & great, we tried the Wu-Tangria -a great summer drink. With 15% service-my total came out to 98$.
Would I come back as a local that lives minutes away ? Not for food but maybe for drinks with friends There are a lot of other great options in the Solar Quartier for drinks including the cage, Ryu, Vertigo. As a dine- in venue-there is a lot of room for improvement-especially their service as a team.View more

Nice ambiance & decor, good for big groups. Apart from that, the food just doesn't fit with my palate; the tofu sautee dish, burger with pineapple sauce, pad thai, all of them were way too sweet. None of us finished our plate. The rice was hard like reheated. The waiter completely forgot my drink order & when asked, he answered:'did you order with me?' uh maybe you should take a pad to take notes next time. Stars for the atmosphere, not the food 🤷🏽?♀?View more

Le décor est un des plus beau & original que j'ai vu en ville, les items des années 90's coffré dans l'époxy étaient captivants. Les drinks & la nourriture..chefs kiss!View more

Souper pour 4 un mercredi.
Soirée tranquille, très agréable pour nos retrouvaille entre copine de plus de 20 ans.
Servi par Mélina, agréable, à reoond à toutes nos questions aisément.
Connais son menu & accommodante pour nos demandes.
Un endroit que j'ai adoré pour le décor particulier.
J'ai pris le faux-filet.
Cuisson parfaite que j'ai demandé.
Nous n'avons ja.ais eu besoin de chercher la serveuse. Elle revenait souvent pour s'assurer de remplir nos verre & que l'on manque de rien.
Merci pour la superbe soirée.
Osé essayer & découvrez !View more

Milena was really on point & maybe the most devoted & understanding waitress we had at dix30. The food was well presented, drinks can improve a little but overall great concept & prolly the best decor on the south shoreView more

My date wanted to check this place out. Really cool urban/hip hop/90s decor. I wonder if they ever actually play basketball in there. The soundtrack reflected this, which was soft at first, but a DJ started spinning & it got a bit louder. Very hip atmosphere, definitely a bougie Instagrammer kind of place. The food is Asian-inspired fusion. My +1's poke was basically a tartare. Very tasty, but very small portion. She ordered a side of veggies which she also enjoyed. My Pad Thai was fine, but not particularly spectacular. Maybe a bit too adapted to North American tastes, sweeter than what I'm used to. But the portion size was good. We split the chocolate lava cake, which was unfortunately overcooked, so it was basically cake. Service was great, very friendly. I'll agree with most of the other reviews here, this isn't a cheap night out, considering the menu is highly inspired by Asian street food. If you're having cocktails, or a bottle of wine, you're looking at 100 bucks per person. Seems to be par for the course in the DIX30 district.View more

Nice decor. Great vibe. Good drinks. However, the food is mediocre. The pad thai was expensive & tasted bad. The poke was not a poke bowl. It was more like a tartare. The chicken wings were very tasty. Service was excellent. Our waitress Amélie was very friendly.View more
