We went here with another couple and were treated like royalty or maybe just friends by our server, Tracy. Everything was wonderful and we had the gambit of their fare. Appetizers of the Portobello mushroom and calamari, and 2 different salads and clam chowder (New England). Our entrees were a custom pasta bowl of ziti, Roma Rustic sauce, with mushrooms/capers/sun-dried tomatoes; Pork Ribs Parmesan; Chicken Parmesan; and Gluten-free pasta with marinara. We split a gigantic slice of "plain" New York Cheesecake. Every item was wonderful. Tracy also made sure we were always well hydrated by keeping the refills coming. Overall, it was a truly fantastic experience.

We had an amazing breakfast on the patio this morning. The weather was beautiful. I ordered the salmon and vegetable frittata with no cheese or cream and substituted with cage free egg whites and gluten-free toast with almond butter. My husband ordered the Tri-athlete with no cheese and made the same substitutions. We both had decaf coffee. They had little International Delight coffee creamers at the table. Service was excellent. I highly recommend this place.

This was my first time at Wildflower, and I loved everything about it. From the open atmosphere and positive ambience, the menu items and the service. Kytana was so friendly, helpful, and hospitable. She checked on us every chance she got and offered us nothing but positivity!! I’m gluten free, I ordered the gluten free pancakes which were delicious! The egg and mushroom fritata and the wildflower cappuccino, iced. Everything was tasty!

WONDERFUL little GEM! Has not disappointed in the many years we've patronized this delightful little place! Had not been there in maybe 2 decades and it was STILL fantastic. Absolutely charming, quaint little Victorian house-turned-Tea House/Lunchery. Hand-painted floral, rim-gilded China tea cups, Granny's lace galore, adorable ceramic knick-knacks, very nice people, and best of all, GREAT FOOD. Quiche is always a winner, as are the made-from-scratch giant, fluffy rolls with real butter. (Not for the gluten-fearful! lol) They also have wonderful desserts such as bread pudding and cherry cream cheese pie. The have tea parties with all the trimmings--scones with cream, dainty finger sandwiches, pastries, floral tea pots. (I celebrated my birthday with a tea party many years ago and can't wait to have afternoon tea there again.) The setting is the idyllic home your fantasy great-great- grandmother owned, where she grew vegetables and herbs in her garden, did needlework, and baked homemade goodies from scratch in her frilly lace-trimmed apron. Go see Granny! Immediately. YUM

Checked by AtlyAlways inquire directly about health and safety.
Food is kinda pricey for what you get. For example you get 6 asparagus for $12.95. We ordered a burger without cheese and it was covered in cheese. They remade the burger but didn’t apologize and it was quite the hassle to have to go back to get it. I got the hamburger fries gluten free and now my stomach hurts. I’m not sure if it is because of gluten exposure or not yet

WOW! This place is amazing! Clean, great vibes, family friendly, fantastic service, and great food! I didn't know why it's so hard to find a good burger on the west side, but this is our new go-to! We ordered the Depression burger and Western burger. Both were amazing! Great patty size! We also had the pretzels and cheese, tater tots, and fries which were all done to perfection! I ordered the Big Blue Van on tap, yum! I can't wait to come back to have their sangria and frozen margarita flight!! Happy hour is 3 to 7pm. I ordered my burger dairy free, which they easily accommodate. They also offer gluten free buns! Literally could not wish for a better place to chill, get some great food, and a nice cold drink!

I was there over the weekend looking for gluten free treats and the owner offered me a piece of sourdough bread to sample and let me tell you it's been 13 yrs since I had bread like that. I will be back💞
