   We had a party of 4. We were all pretty disappointed. 3 of us reared the surf and turf with the fillet mignon. The fillets were not fillets, they should call them what they actually are on the menu. They were medallions. About the size of a silver dollar. Each fillet was cut in half horizontally which made them super thin. Hard to cook a thin piece of meat just right and serve it in a timely manner before it’s overcooked. The fish which was the “surf” was pretty good, (all 3 bites). They served 1 broccolini stalk with the meal. Most nice restaurants will bring complimentary bread to the table. If you want bread with your meal, be prepared to shell out $8. The seafood tower had disappointingly changed so we did not order it. The scallops were the smallest scallops I’ve seen and they were inedible and very fishy. The positive and enjoyable part of the meal was the cup of seafood chowder. The service was no up to par after the meal was served. The bill was $over $350 which included 2 alcoholic drinks and one soda. I will not return to WildFin. They lost our business after this poor attention to what is being served to their customers. We will take our hard earned money to another place that actually seems to care about what they are charging vs what they are serving. Poor performance WildFin

   We come here to eat all the time. The food is great, depending on your budget it can be pricey but the food is really well worth it. Staff is very knowledgeable and friendly.

   Unusual to this restaurant, service was slow. Maybe the server was new. The wine was good and most of the food was as good as expected, which is to say delicious. However, one item was not up to standard. When we explained the problem to the manager, he immediately replaced it and removed the charge. We love to eat here and will be back.

   Wildfin’s seafood chowder is always really good and this was no exception. Their seasonal salad was really good, as well. Unfortunately, the pink snapper entree was an overcooked and bland. The miso black cod, on the other hand, was excellent it was cooked to perfection, moist and very flavorful. The service, while friendly, was inconsistent. Our drink order and our dinner were were taken in a timely manner. Unfortunately our entrees came out when we were not even 3/4 done with our chowder and salad (and were not slow eaters like we should be :-)). We would have appreciated a breather between courses, but had to have them put the entrees under a lamp for another 5-7 minutes. They did watch our progress and redelivered them when we finished the first course, but it all felt very rushed. While they acknowledged our anniversary when the server first came to our table, we were surprised they didn’t offer a mini dessert for our anniversary. Whether an oversight or policy, it was a miss. Getting the attention of our server after dinner was a challenge, but we were patient. Overall, a mixed dining experience and considering the price point we believe there are better options.

    Our wait person was excellent. Just enough attention to get us extras, but not be intrusive. Food came out fast, we had the before 5:30 selection of 3 items. All very delicious, good size portions. Dessert donuts are my recommendation!!!
