What People Say

Reviews on TripAdvisor and OpenTable rave about the delicious gluten-free crusts and standout pasta dishes. Diners love the farm-to-table freshness and often mention the welcoming staff and charming atmosphere. Many guests also highlight the restaurant’s ability to accommodate a variety of dietary needs without compromising taste.

Areas for Improvement

The space is on the smaller side, so it can feel a bit tight during peak hours. Reservations are a smart move, especially on show nights. Also, if you're expecting strong cocktails or a full bar, the drink menu leans more toward wine and beer.

The Bottom Line

With its healthy comfort food, friendly service, and close proximity to live music venues, WILD is a perfect pre-show spot for concert-goers looking for a feel-good meal in a stylish, low-key setting.
