We’ve never had a bad meal here. The food and selection are fantastic. The service is excellent. We celebrate birthdays here or date night. Tonight my husbands steak was overdone and the staff replaced it with no hesitation. This is a fabulous restaurant.

Every course of the four-course meal was simply outstanding. The addition of the pasta as a side was a standout touch—I highly recommend it. Each dish showcased high-quality, wholesome ingredients, prepared with incredible thought and care.

The food was delicious and eating outside across from Lake Merritt is a pleasure! The avocado toast (with a generous serving of green salad) was beautifully prepared, as was the pastrami benedict that my partner ate (unlike many we've had, it was not drowned in hollandaise sauce but simply topped with it). My only reservation was about the eggs on the avo toast. I asked the server to make sure the yolks were "not runny." She wrote down and repeated the instruction. But when they arrived, they were totally runny. She offered to get me a scrambled egg instead - which arrived perfectly prepared. But then I was charged for it. I think if the kitchen makes an error they need to make good on it, without additional charge. Other than that, it was a wonderful meal.

I celebrated my birthday at Wayfare Tavern with my husband and son. The dinner was delicious and the whole experience was perfect. I especially loved the table by the fireplace and how great the service was.
