Best Restaurants for Foodies in Wynnewood

We continually say that we believe Blackfish is the best restaurant outside of center city and can go head to head with most any. The lady had the oysters - the lemon 'foam' on top, oysters in the shell but 'free' so that you can just slide them in right from the shell leaving the foam in tact, were fresh and delightful. She followed that with the wild mushroom ravioli. Toasted home panko breadcrumbs and delightful sauce, all rich with mushroom flavor was also wonderful. I had the scallop more or less ceviche-type appetizer with thin scallop and radish slices in a marvelous orange and citrus sauce, finely diced onion and cucumber and fresh herbs - it was the best appetizer I have had there and I love the smoke salmon and quail egg and the brussels sprout salad (don't laugh until you have one - they too are delicious). I had the duck breast. Butternut squash, some home-made cranberry relish, another puree of something that was rich and tasty along with a brown a-jus gravy. It was really good. I could only eat half of it - quite large, but wonderful flavors. Blackfish continues to be at the top of our favorites list! Not to be missed. G

As always, Chef Rucker knows how to bring it! The food, service, ambience, music and vibe were all on point. The swordfish belly app, lobster toast, hash browns, crab claws, blue fun tuna, cabbage, scallops, swordfish Milanese, sea bass, ham and squid ink biscuits and chicken were unreal. This is our third visit, and the consistency and quality were outstanding. We’ve probably had every menu item and have been enjoying the changing drinks menu as well. The matcha cocktail is a favorite, can drink it like water! The new mezcal Negroni was delish!!! You have to get the desserts. I crave them constantly now. The granola cremeaux is in my dreams.

Again, on December 25th, I went to SkyHigh for the second time, and this time, I invited my parents since they had never been to a restaurant above all in the heights and in the skies like SkyHigh. It was a very calm, relaxed atmosphere, with excellent service and very professional, as always! My parents and I were delighted and happy. We enjoyed ourselves a lot. I will definitely go back again.

We celebrated Christmas Eve at Buona Sera for the first time. Our waitress was incredible - so accommodating and attentive to our needs. The food was extremely delicious except for the one fact that we found a sliver of hard plastic in the Lobster Bisque. We gave it to our waitress to give to the manager/cook so that they were aware of it. I was really taken back that the manager/cook never came out to offer their apologies which I thought would be the appropriate thing to do. Also our check was wrong - it took three (3) times for them to get it right - again not the way we envisioned our Christmas Eve to end! It will be some time before we go back to this restaurant.

Wonderful meal at Fraschetta. The food is excellent and service attentive. Cost is reasonable and because it’s BYOB, it helps keep the overall cost down. My husband’s Osso Bucco was tender and so flavorful - made with lamb. As was my Rigatoni alla Nona. Their semolina gnocchi appetizer is wonderful and quite different.
