    The after taking our order the waiter must of placed the appetizer and main course in at the same time as the main course was delivered within minutes after the appetizer. Both my party and I had steaks - they came out warm as if sitting in the kitchen. We felt rushed , the pace of the entrees was surprisingly fast, faster than receiving food at a drive thru. After we finished , then we were ignored for quite a while. The dinner was a big disappointment, especially since we stayed at the hotel where the restaurant is and had breakfast each morning which was excellent. It may be the evening wait staff was not at par with the morning crew.

    We absolutely loved this restaurant. We were staying at the Westbury upstairs and came down for a dinner. This is not your normal restaurant in a hotel. Abymon Joseph gave us a magical service experience, the food was fantastic, and couldn't have asked for more. Thank you to the entire team for the great time!

    Beautiful location and terrace seating. The food was excellent - savory and delicious. The only slight negative was getting service once we were seated did take some time and it was difficult to get the check to end our dinning experience. But otherwise we would highly reconnebd Wilde

    Wonderful setting full of charm and energy and extraordinary service especially from Eric the sommelier. The food is good but not amazing however the charm of setting and service makes it worth a night.

    Dinner did not disappoint! The service was top notch, very attentive without being intrusive. Food was very good, amongst the best places I have eaten, although I would describe the menu as conservative. We did have a large table next to us who were quite loud, but this didn't actually matter at all. Concierge seemed very knowledgeable- although be aware you will pay a lot for the best wines.
