★★★★★ 5.0 Paul Marogi · Feb 2026

We tried this place for the first time and it was excellent. The restaurant has a nice old style vibe and it was very clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was flavorful and cooked perfectly. Steak was one of the best filets we’ve had but our favorite dish was the cajun chicken. Must try. Will go back for sure and the prices are fair

To earn a 5 star review means all expectations were exceeded, and Wilder's did that! From the moment I walked through the door I was impressed. Devon provided us exceptional service. Answering all questions and providing explanations and suggestions provided the groundwork for an amazing meal. Appetizers (beef tartare and crab cakes) were perfect, flavorful, and seasoned wonderfully. Our main course (filet and bone-in ribeye steaks) arrived with hash browns and numerous sauces. Steaks were some of the best, and Wilder's has redefined hash browns. We also thoroughly enjoyed cheesecake, cappuccino, and French press coffee. All in all, this was an evening to remember!

We visited Wilder’s for the first time and had a mixed experience. We arrived on time for our reservation but had to wait almost 22 minutes to be seated, which was a bit frustrating. The ambiance of the restaurant was nice and definitely had a classic steakhouse vibe, but it was much louder than expected—steakhouses usually have a more moderate noise level, but that’s something beyond control. As for the food, the highlight was definitely the filet mignon, which was cooked to absolute perfection. However, most of the side dishes were underwhelming. The carrot truffles tasted like plain boiled carrots, and the potato purée lacked flavor. The mushrooms were okay but nothing special, and the pasta dish was unfortunately bland. On the bright side, the zucchini fries were excellent, and the Ca

We had the best experience here last night. Fallon was our server and she was so kind and attentive, Wilder’s is lucky to have her as a waitress. Service was 10/10. The food and drinks were average for Birmingham. I would definitely come back if they changed up the menu or added more to it, it felt a bit limited. I got the salmon. It was good, but I wish it came with something other than a few leaves of greens. My boyfriend got the chicken, and it was just okay. I really wanted to love this place, and we will definitely check it out again in the future. I still recommend giving it a try. It’s in a great location and it definitely has so much potential. I will add, the calamari was amazing. I think we would come back just for that.

Wilder's was very good and met expectations. The beef and tuna tartare were both excellent. Our group of 4 also shared the Dover Sole, Cajun Chicken and Wagyu NY Strip. The strip was perfectly cooked, the cajun chicken was our least favorite of the three but still very good and the dover sole was awesome. Their house made caesar dressing was great. Service was absolutely top notch.
