At Wildseed, a plant-based restaurant and bar by Adriano Paganini, we believe that eating seasonally is the right thing to do because it makes a difference in the way your food tastes and how you feel. Working exclusively with N California’s freshest and most seasonal produce, Wildseed serves up hearty, healthy and satisfying meals that pull in global flavors and techniques alongside creative cocktails, local beer, and local, vegan, organic and biodynamic wines.
Wildseed offers guests a chance to make a better choice – a place where you can feel good about the decisions you are making. With a full-bar that is also driven by the philosophy of using fresh, sustainable and seasonal ingredients in its cocktails, Wildseed is well suited for hosting groups large and small for snacks and drinks at happy hour, or a full meal throughout the day.
5% surcharge will be added to all guest checks for employee benefit, including health insurance, commuter benefit, sick days & minimum wage ordinance.

Polenta was quite good but not exceptional. Coffee leaves a lot to be desired - rather bitter and not rich tasting. Sat in the back which was quieter, but still hard to hear. Not sure if I'll return.

We were kindly served Happy Hour indoors due to the cold weather, although Happy Hour is usually served in the bar/patio. Food was delicious, especially the pizzetta with vegan béchamel and vegan cheese. Food selections change seasonally and are consistently excellent. Didn’t give 5 stars on ambience because it was a bit cold inside the restaurant and noisy.

Thank you Susan for the review. We are glad you enjoyed our Happy Hour food. We will be sure to make sure its warmer inside for next time. See you soon!

Makes you rethink dining at a restaurant with an all plant-based menu. On a second visit the flavors, textures, smells and execution firmly melted away any prejudices I had as a carnivore. Polenta cakes, wild mushroom zeppole, squash flatbread and wildseed waldorf salad. Lots of food and satisfying with no yearning to go down the street for a Gott's burger! Service and setting great. Location is a bit of a setback. Parking in the Town & Country complex is a REAL pain at lunch add on +15 minutes and bring a lucky charm to snag a spot as you crawl through the complex.
