| - I really wanted to like this place. The Wigwam Resort has a long history, and it should have a great restaurant. Unfortunately, they stumbled with the service and the food. The atmosphere is nice, but it is so darned loud!! Difficult to have a conversation here. We liked the open kitchen and the mission style ceilings.
The service started off okay, and our waiter seemed attentive. The bread was delicious--warm sourdough minis with good butter. However, it took our waiter and his manager about 15 minutes to find the wine that we ordered. The appetizers came out quickly, but then there was a huge lag waiting for our main courses....like a half hour. My wife had the butternut squash soup with a mole sauce, which was really good.
The two main courses that we tried were the sea bass and the chicken. The sea bass was good, but the accompanying veggies were just okay. The chicken was completely overcooked and the butternut squash gnocchi were gummy and disgusting.
Because the food took so much time to come out, we opted to skip dessert, which I rarely do. But the options were so boring: chocolate cake, blah, blah, blah. The manager did knock a few bucks off our bill given the issues that we had with the food and slowness of the kitchen.
I will try it again, just to see if they improve things, the next time we're in town.
