All the food was prepared carefully, tasted amazing, and looked spectacular. The service was top notch since they were bringing out the food so quickly and were always asking to make sure we had everything we needed. They even cut up the cake we brought and made sure all the entrees were cut up if needed. The ambiance was very simple and modern. I liked how there was a decent amount of seating and the setting was a mix of casual and fancy. Would definitely come back again!

The set up of the restaurant is really cool and there is a small outdoor eating area. The drinks were very good and nicely presented. The fries that came with the burgers were super crispy.

We went in for a Saturday or Sunday brunch and were able to walk in. The service was overall friendly and fast. The French omelet was heavenly. I am usually not an omelette person generally prefer a regular fried egg because I find the homogenous mixed egg to be a bit boring but with the filling inside this was a perfect balance of taste. I didn't get to take a pic to accompany it but the potatoes were also delicious. I can't wait to revisit

Nothing particularly amazing, although my mom did say the toffee coffee pie was her favorite dessert she'd had in a long time (and she just came back from France/Belgium). I thought the apple pie was tasty and unique, with a thinner crust than typical pie.

Every time I visit, the decor never ceases to impress. It's classy but unpretentious and you can tell folks are there to have a good time. We arrived at about 8:30pm on a Saturday and it was packed. Luckily, we were able to snag seats at a bar before a table opened up around 9pm. A note that they don't take reservations (but I kind of wish they did!), so this isn't the place to go if you're in a rush. They had a special seasonal menu going for the holiday, and we started with the reuben hush puppies. While they were more like croquettes, they were extra crispy, cheesy, and juicy with the most delicious thousand island dressing. I wish they would offer this year round! For mains, we ordered the corned beef and buddha bowl. I really liked the horseradish aioli that came with the beef- while the meat could've been more tender, it had a great flavor overall. The cabbage actually tasted pickled and the carrots sweet; non-traditional, but tasty! The buddha bowl had a very wide range of veggies and perfectly cooked rice. I could drink that spicy peanut sauce. I appreciated how large the portions were, which definitely softened the price as we left with plenty of leftovers. All in all, we had a great experience- if you haven't checked Wilde out, I highly recommend doing so!

Probably on a nice warm day, this place is crowded and popping. That's also going to be fun so I will certainly revisit with friends for some brunch and mimosa.

The food was also very good too. I ended up getting a Gypsy skillet, one of my go-to brunch items. It came out nice and hot and plentiful.

I had sourdough bread which was tasty and nicely toasted. Definitely recommended if you want something delicious and fulfilling....and they also have a full menu for lunch and what looks like a nice variety of milkshakes too. Will be back for sure!

The others with me got the fried chicken sandwich (it was huge) and the Back of the Yards pizza (I had a couple slices- it was wonderful). I've yet to have a bad experience at Roebuck and it is firmly on the "must-eat" list every time I am in the area. Highly recommend.
