Best WLM Reviews
Hands down, probably the best burger I’ve ever had. Truffle fries were also incredible. I was also very impressed at the speed that our food came out! The staff were friendly and there are so many different seating sections to the restaurant, which is very helpful depending on if you want fully indoor seating, partial indoor, or fully outdoor.
Cocktails were great and it’s nice to be able to walk through the park after
I’ll preface this with, the 4-star rating could be influenced by the fact that I chose Bites & Beer instead of the full dining experience.
With that caveat out of the way, I’ll dive into why I rated everything the way I did. To start, atmosphere was great! I loved the overall vibes and being in Central Park was such a neat place to hang out for a bit. The architecture and design of this building was great as well!
I had to rate service 4-stars because it felt like we were just a side thing. We had someone come by and ask how we were doing and we had been doing well but almost nothing after that. No water refill, no ask if we wanted another beer, etc. Oh well. Maybe they didn’t want us there too long because we looked a bit out of place. But everyone we encountered was nice and helpful when we asked.
That leaves the food which, for the price and place, was underwhelming. Again, maybe their full menu is a different story but the little bites we tried left us wanting more. The Meatball Sliders were my favorite but even they could have packed a little more flavor. The Plantain Chips were the second best but still lacking. The Spicy Avocado Dip was not spicy at all. I know this is a relative thing for everyone. I usually don’t like too heavy spice but there was nothing there for me. The last was the Giant Soft Pretzel. The pretzel itself was good and fresh, however, the dipping sauces were eh. Cheese was nothing special and the mustard pretty basic too.
Anyway, I hope you give it a try for yourself and see if you agree or not. Maybe try the full menu as I’ll hopefully do next time. Enjoy!
The food was good. However, I think the main reasons to go over there is more about the location and the place itself.
I love the scenery and their shop!
I liked their dessert. Cheesecake.
Great service.
Update on the review : I don't think I was absolutely fair on this review. The selection of beer is very nice and I enjoyed it. I think that their scallops were delicious and dessert great.
My review was too short and made believe that the menu was just average. It's not average at all. It was some nice food with great service.
Thank you for the management to answer kindly to my review. I had to add this update.
Wonderful place for special occasion. Dinner for 10 indoors. Our servers were exceptional. Allison stood out as an all-time favorite. Every plate was empty and everyone left feeling spoiled and completely satisfied.
I celebrated my first year anniversary with a delightful brunch at this restaurant. Brunch is served until 4:30 when dinner service begins. We enjoyed a beautiful table with a view of Central Park. The ambiance was romantic, and the service was excellent. Like most Manhattan locations, parking isn't available on-site. I parked at the Lincoln Center, a convenient 10-minute walk away,since I planned to catch a show later. After dining, we took a charming ride in a bicycle carriage tour around Central Park's iconic spots, including a stop at the Balto memorial-a highlight on My bucket list. Overall, it was a fantastic experience.
Wow! Absolutely fabulous place. Beautiful restaurant with a massive outdoor seating area right on Central Park.
The ambiance was great and the food was delicious. I had the best scallops I have ever had in my life and the dessert was amazing.
Highly recommended!
EXCELLENT! We hosted a dinner for 20 people with reserved Premiere Seating in the glass box space. Arranged through Ivy Rodriguez, Events Sales Manager. She was extremely helpful with precise & accurate information (no empty promises). The set up was breathtakingly beautiful. We chose a prix fixe menu. The food was outstanding. All diets accommodated (gluten free, vegan). The service was superior. Francine & Nelson were the lead wait staff along with an entire team that responded to every request. In combination, the ambiance, service and food created a perfect event. There were no disappointments. We highly recommend.
We had an event here and it could have been better run.
The food was not great. The fish was way overcooked and mealy, def not fresh. The beef was better but served luke warm.
The bartenders ran out of olive juice in the first 5 min to make martinis and instead of getting more, diverted guests to the other bar, which is where people were starting to bunch up by the entrance.
The bartenders also had no small bills to make change for the guests, yet were still accepting tips.
Guests were given diffrent information about the venue from different people causing confusion.
Can tick this venue off the bucket list. No need to return.
