    Sat at the bar which was nice. Liked the vibe. Bartenders were overwhelmed so service suffered. Fish taco’s and Cauliflower crust mushroom flatbread were good. Lemongrass chicken orzo soup was just ok. No lemongrass flavor so it was pretty much just a lukewarm bowl of average chicken soup.

    Good afternoon RenaeS. We are happy to read you that you enjoyed the Vibe of the Wilbur Mansion lounge. We are also happy to read that the Fish taco’s and Cauliflower crust mushroom flatbread were good but we will strive to make this exceptional along with our Lemongrass chicken orzo soup.

    Over the past few years we’ve been here several times. Our recent visit was the best food and experience we’ve had. The scallops appetizer (also available as a full portion) were phenomenal. The crab cake was an 8 ounce mountain of lump crab that I haven’t seen anywhere else in this area. I don’t have a picture of it because I dug in immediately. If you’ve been before it’s time to go back. If you haven’t, go.
    The Wilbur MansionResponded 5 days ago
    Dear Jackie, Thank you so much for your kind words and for being a loyal guest over the last two years! We’re thrilled to hear that your recent visit was your best experience yet. Our team takes great pride in creating dishes that delight, and it’s wonderful to know you loved the scallops and our signature crab cake—sometimes, the best meals are the ones too good to pause for a picture! We truly appreciate your recommendation and can’t wait to welcome you back again soon. Cheers to more delicious moments at Wilbur Mansion! Yours in Hospitality, Lorrie Miller

    The food was cold and the flavor was bland. Also, there’s no reason to say that the bread is complimentary.

    We had a delightful evening with beautiful surroundings, attentive service, and outstanding food. We were celebrating and the staff was very accommodating of our relaxed pace as we caught up and enjoyed a long evening. All the courses were thoughtfully composed with top quality ingredients and subtle flavors and textures- just a really well thought out and executed menu

    Will certainly recommend The Wilbur Mansion to anyone who enjoys a fine meal in a casual yet elegant setting. Our meals were expertly prepared and the service from Sandy was equally executed. Beyond the food and service, the amazing restoration and preservation of the facility is also an integral part of the Wilbur experience.
