    The food was absolutely outstanding, the live music was great and the drinks were top notch. We sat outside and even though it was under 60, we were quite comfortable with the heat they had on.

    It was a rainy day, the bar was busy during happy hour but not loud. The specialty drinks were tasty and of different creation. From reception to table service, Erin or server... and the restaurant manager, the service was good, responsive. We had some issue with the 1st wine we selected and Erin noticed we were not drinking so she offered a change. Manager came, we settled and was happy with the new selection. Same thing happened with my Cioppino. there was hardly any seafood. I showed Erin.... Manager fixed it. :) It was a tasty bowl of Cioppino. That is the kind of service I would expect from any restaurant. Thank you Erin, Leo and evening Manager. We will be back for the service and the view.

    I went to Wildland with friends for dinner last night and loved it. The food and service were excellent. We ordered Prosciutto Toast, Charred Maitake Mushrooms, A Very Green Salad and Rigatoni. We also had the Venetian cocktail and Sangiovese wine. The cocktail was served with a massive quantity of ice. I would order it up next time. The food was fabulous and fresh. We loved the mushrooms, toast and salad! The only odd thing was the anchovy in the Rigatoni. The pasta and oxtail were delicious. I like anchovy but adding it to an oxtail and pasta dish wasn’t good. It was very fishy and strange paired with the oxtail. There were so many other things on the menu that I want to try that I will definitely be back.
