Wildwood

This is the best kept secret in SLC where the Locals go to for amazing gourmet cuisine. The out door patio has heaters and the hanging lights are magical. The food is the highest quality. This is a FINE DINING restaurant where you relax, slow down and enjoy your evening. The food may take longer because it is cooked to perfection not to speed. You don't need to dress up as attire is casual. You may need to make a reservation. Sometimes you can get lucky and walk in but it is rare. Call ahead if you have questions. You may need to call twice as the staff is small.

Absolutely loved our visit to Wildwood! Made a reservation and showed up a bit early, but we were seated immediately. Our server, Thomas, was very helpful and attentive. The restaurant is warm and cozy. Smaller but very inviting. Drinks came quickly and were delicious! We ordered the mushroom toast to start with and it was so good! We had the pork ribs and fried chicken entrees and they were also delicious. And the portions were huge! Everything was so flavorful. The ribs had a great bark and pulled easily off the bone. We were so full we didn’t have room for dessert. Can’t wait to get back.

Food and ambiance was excellent. Chef Kurt cooks real ingredients to their excellence. From appetizers to dessert, each dish was full of flavor with beautiful presentation. The service was attentive and very kind. It's definitely worth stopping in for a great dinner experience and not looking for traditional downtown food.

This restaurant is a must here in Salt Lake. The food was so delicious and the venue is very quaint. You definitely get the “Avenues” vibe in this restaurant. We have tried pretty much everything on the menu and we can’t wait to go back again. Staff is very efficient and friendly, drinks are very well crafted and priced very reasonably. Make sure you have a reservation.

Absolutely delicious food and fantastic service. This place is small but mighty! Make sure to grab a reservation, we went in on a Sunday evening with a reservation and the place filled up immediately. They are also located downtown so you may need to circle the area a couple times to find a good spot. Even if you do have to park a block away, who doesn't love a stroll in the Avenues?

Every single item we tried we absolutely loved. We started with the Little Gem salad which was a large portion and super delicious. The roasted beet salad was my personal favorite though, the granola they sprinkled on top was just the perfect touch. We also shared the Mac n Cheese which was again a large portion. I'm not sure what was in the "magic sauce" used for the Mac n Cheese but it was indeed magical.

Finally we tried the Pumpkin and winter squash risotto, it was extremely delicious. The flavors were rich and savory but not too overpowering, very filling and an awesome comfort food on a cold day. The risotto was also a large portion, along with everything else, it was super fun to try lots of different things and share good food with good company.

We saved room for dessert and I tried the Brown butter rum bread pudding which was super delicious. I also have to mention the drink menu, they have a super refreshing Cucumber Smash vodka cocktail that was a perfect balance to some of the more savory food we ordered.

Such an adorable location, combined with great service and stellar food, really makes this such an amazing place to make some great memories, just don't forget your reservation!
