| - It doesn't get much Wurst than this. There's a new restaurant and German bier hall where Wildwood used to be. And man oh man, you're in for a treat. My very first time here was for the opening. Yes, it was an evening made to impress. I saved my first review for a return visit to see an ordinary evening out would see the same levels of quality and service.
I stopped in to meet a couple of friends for some birthday drinks (not mine) on Saturday night. I wasn't sure if they'd be upstairs or downstairs, so I did a quick round through the restaurant first. When I was here for the opening there was plenty of standing room. Now that standing room has been replaced with more seating. Nice for those seated so more of them can be accommodated, not so easy to do a walk around through. With all tables full, it was a little cramped getting through there, especially when a server was in the midst of taking somebody's order and there's no way around her. The cool part about the restaurant are the live trees in the middle of it. Yep! Real, live trees.
Downstairs was-thankfully-far less busy than the opening. Don't get the wrong idea, it was still pretty full of people, you just didn't have to make friends with every person you met as you tried to politely brush past them. The long, wooden tables provided ample seating and encouraged patrons to sit where there's room. Only half a table open? No problem! Take a seat, there's plenty of room here. Besides the open kitchen, I'm most excited to see what bier steins start showing up in the lockers by the stairs. You can rent one of your very own you know.
My friends had been here awhile and I had just missed our server coming around for our drink order. So I headed on upto the bar. It was maybe a 10 minute wait in total to get my drink. As I waited, I watched the staff behind the bar. Moving and maneuvering around one another, they were constantly on the go but able to move out of each others way where needed. As one bartender was pouring a beer, she looked up and asked me what I wanted. Multi-tasking with the orders. Efficient. I like it. I told her I wanted something that was a light ale with citrus. She suggested a grapefruit beer. I liked it so much I had another later in the night.
All in all, a delightful evening. Wurst was spot on. I can't wait to go back for some of the lamb and goat cheese crepes I tried at the opening.
