The Wheel

I hosted my sister's baby shower here last weekend. I was really impressed by how Will (manager) and the chef accommodated a custom menu that met all the unique dietary requirements of our party (vegan, vegetarian, celiac, dairy free). The view from the semi-private area of the restaurant where we held the party felt quite personal, with a great view of the patio and water. Nice, tall, green hedges sectioned off our area from the rest of the restaurant. We were allowed to arrive early to set up some flower arrangements and all the staff was extremely accommodating and helpful (they provided us with glasses for flowers and an extra high table for party favors, and they cleaned up everything we brought after we left). They even let us linger longer after our three hour time slot had finished. Everything went so smoothly and was very relaxed and delicious. The cocktails and mocktails were GREAT too. Thank you so much for making it a special celebration for our family and friends.

Edited on 03/13/23 I loved the atmosphere of The Wheel. The menu has several gluten-free options. The starters were amazing. I ordered the Miso Salmon. My salmon wasn't quite cooked medium, but it was edible. The bok choy wasn't great as it was overcooked then, saturated in sause that caused it to be too bitter and salty, I didn't eat it. Service was good. Several people came to get our plates, and we received new silverware for each course; however, the oyster forks came too late. I had a 5pm reservation, and it was quiet, nice, and relaxing. After about 6 pm, it became quite busy, and the noise level made a quiet dinner between two people, one that caused us to speak up rather loudly. Dinner Pro: Quiet if you go early Dinner Con: More expensive, tennis if meats are not consistent My second experience wasn't as wonderful as my first. This time, we had Sunday brunch. I was so excited to try this menu, but we were let down. Our server took so long to take our order, rarely checked on us, and our food took almost an hour to make it to our table, and it was off. My friend's steak was not evenly cooked, and my fried chicken was overcooked; no juice in the meat. We tried the Bigeye Tuna Tartare for an appetizer, there was no perfect bite, and the Tuna was gummy and flavorless. Brunch Pro: The cappuccino was amazing. Slightly cheaper prices Brunch Con; Meat temps not consistent, service was poor due to server not being able to handle a whole section to himself, and the live band had the volume up so loud it was difficult to hear my server and friend at times
