Flip Side claims they do not take reservations. We have been there a few times and had to wait. We went there last night at 5:45 and were told there was a 40 minute wait. We asked why since there were 3 empty tables. The hostess told us those tables were reserved and people called to reserve them. We said " so you DO take reservations ?" Were were told a few times " NO , but you can call ahead ". We decided to take my mother out for Valentine's Day last night and decided to choose restaurants the did not take a reservation like Flip Side. The entire situation is ridiculous since the hostess was basically arguing with us that they did not take reservations but the tables were reserved and will not allow us to sit down. We waited for a few minutes and then left and when we left all of those tables were still empty even though she turned us away. I will never return to flipside.
