Imperial Hotel restaurant opens

Sid’s on Main opened for business last Friday in Canton.

The restaurant is housed within the Imperial Hotel, which has been slowly renovated by former Canton mayor Pat Smathers.

The new locale has remained “steadily busy” since it opened, said owner Sid Truesdale. People were “glad we opened,” Truesdale said. “Overall, the feedback was very positive.”

The menu includes a little bit of everything — burgers, pastas, crab cakes, fish and steak, among other items.

The dining area is open from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. every day for lunch and dinner. Brunch is also served starting at 11 a.m. on Sundays. The bar portion of the restaurant remains open until at least 11 p.m. each night.
