The waitstaff did not welcome us. They directed us where to sit as though we were simply bodies. Overhead was loud and fast Christmas music. They said there was nothing they could do about it. Our waitress was unkind. Simply asking for another knife, she literally grabbed my used one. I requested it back to use for butter and she handed me a mean face. Never again.

Cocktails were good; the rolls would have been good if they weren’t so hard. Artichoke appetizer was very good; fried chicken was dry and the biscuit very hard. My husband’s burger was good but fries mediocre. Almond biscotti dessert was poor. Don’t order it. Service was very good but not sure if I would go back.

We dine at The Wild Goose regularly. The food is always delicious and very consistent. The ambience cool and cozy. Emma keeps the restaurant running like a well oiled machine. All the while being warm, friendly, and very efficient.

Food and environment is very nice but the restaurant is very busy and the servers seem overwhelmed so it’s hard to get attention.
