★★★★★ 5.0 Bill Kennedy · Oct 2025

We had an absolutely fantastic experience at Wildest Kitchen! From the moment we sat down, our server Paige made the night special. She was warm, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect. Paige is an incredible asset to this restaurant and deserves major kudos — thank you for taking such great care of us! As plant-based eaters, we were blown away by how thoughtful and creative the menu is. It’s so refreshing to dine somewhere that doesn’t just toss a Beyond Burger and salad at vegans. The dishes here are crafted with real care and flavor — you can tell there’s love behind them. Everything we had was delicious, beautifully presented, and satisfying in every way. To anyone who’s vegan or plant-based: this is your spot. It’s hands down one of the best vegan

Wildest is truly one of those rare restaurants that manages to exceed expectations the moment you walk through the door. Their menu is extremely impressive—full of variety, creativity, and bold flavors. And even though it’s not an exclusively plant based restaurant, their plant-based offerings are absolutely next-level. They’ve clearly put real thought, skill, and passion into crafting a wide range of beautifully executed vegan dishes that hold their own against any traditional menu. It’s the kind of place where both vegans and non-vegans can eat side by side and be completely blown away. The drinks were just great. Their bar is seriously well stocked, offering everything from signature cocktails to premium spirits, and each drink feels balanced, refreshing, and crafted with intention. It

We came here to celebrate our 13th anniversary. My wife had the Pan-Roasted Quail, and I had the Pan-Seared Rack of Venison. Both dishes paired beautifully with the Domaine Caroline Morey Chassagne-Montrachet Rouge 2023. A month after our visit, I actually took the job as General Manager — a full-circle moment!

I went for the first time on a Thursday. I wanted to see some live music but they didn't have any that day. I didn't know I needed a reservation but they were still kind and friendly. Waiter was very nice and helpful with suggestions. I'm glad I went here. The steak was the best I've ever had, medium well. I don't know what kind of magic they did to the Spinach and mushrooms under the steak but it was so flavorful and delicious! I was disappointed with the mocktail options, but the drink i got was good. Next time I'll try the wine with my steak. I can't wait to go back during live music events next time. Thank you for a fine dinner.

Great menu with a lot of GF choices. Everyone working here (except for the asian lady who seemed like the boss) is very friendly. The two men working there are also very professional and knowledgeable, the (blonde) older lady was very sweet but had some problems differentiating between gluten free and vegan. Food was tasty!
