Wildwood Kitchen - Bethesda

Awesome lunch. Delightful menu with a great mix of flavours and tastes for every palette. Wonderful service, attentive but not obsessive. Great prices. WInderfuldrinks menu too.

Excellent food in a quiet setting. Beautifully prepared and presented. Selection is varied with something for everyone. My spinach crepe and passion fruit sorbet were delicious. Our group had not seen each other in a long time and our server did not press us to order quickly.

Wow. The bartender lacked personality and was more focused on waiting tables. When my guest tried to order another drink during happy hour, she was told by the bartender that she could only be served one drink at a time. I also asked for a drink, but was told to wait until the bartender returned. Despite waiting, the bartender never acknowledged me. I ended up ordering something simpler that the maitre’d handled. However, he informed me that there is a maximum limit of three drinks per hour in the county. Despite only having two weak margaritas in an hour, he refused to serve me a vodka on the rocks. The service was disappointing, and the bartender lacked any charm. It seemed like they were irritated with us ordering from the happy hour menu, which defeats the purpose of having one. Despite spending $100 for two people, we will not be coming back. The food was good, but the overall experience was not worth it.

The service was attentive but not intrusive. The food was superb. The wine pour (single glass) was generous and the NZ Sauv Blanc was excellent. We enjoyed the salmon which was plated medium rare. Again right on the mark. We lingered after two espressos and felt no pressure to clear the table. We will be back.

While over-priced, the food and the service is top notch.
