The Wheel focuses on American cuisine brimming with locally sourced ingredients in an industrial chic, waterfront setting.

Drawing on fresh ingredients from over 40 local farmers, fishermen and purveyors, the restaurant features the best of what’s in season with an ever-changing menu plus produce grown and harvested right from The Village’s rooftop garden. At the center of its open kitchen lies a hearth oven used to roast meats, fish and vegetables, as well as to bake Neapolitan-style pizzas.

    Food was sub par… bland, and skimpy… The burger was the only good item we received out of the 6 dishes. Shortrib hash was dry with overcooked potato rosti.the jalapeno hollandaise as well as the regular hollandaise were both tasteless. Everything tasted like bad diner food except burger. Service was very good tho.Prices were too high for the quality

    Awesome restaurant. First time there. Ambiance, food, service were all excellent. definitely be returning. We went in November so we weren't able to sit outside obviously, but that looks like a fun set-up as well. Thanks for a nice date night out.

    Delicious brunch, we loved the banana bread and short rib hash. Service was a bit slow and unwelcoming, but overall a beautiful setting and worth a visit.

    The service was terrible. The food was really good. Our waiter barely checked on us and forgot our drinks. Didn’t check in to refill coffee, and we had to ask for salt and pepper.
