Another yummy dinner at wildfin! Our server, Lake was very friendly and had a few recommendations for me because they were unfortunately OUT of the Parmesan crusted sole last night I wound up having the trout both the seafood fettuccine and the shepherds pie are delicious and the beer ( house Hefeweizen ) was even good as well. Last night was just another example of why Wildfin is one of our favorites

The ambiance and service were outstanding. The menu is well-developed and interesting. Some of the food like the burrata appetizer and the bolognese was excellent. We found the mushroom risotto and the beef short rib to be overly salty. Great drinks as well!
