We really enjoyed this restaurant and everything it had to offer. This was our first visit, and from the moment we arrived, we were impressed. We received a genuinely warm welcome, something that has become increasingly rare in today’s restaurant scene. After being seated, we were immediately offered water and a cocktail menu. Our waiter was attentive, knowledgeable, and especially skilled at helping us navigate a new dining experience. As we ordered drinks, appetizers, and entrées, he never pushed one menu item over another. Instead, he answered our questions thoughtfully and offered helpful suggestions when we asked for them. In the end, we had a very enjoyable dinner, excellent drinks, and, just as importantly, the opportunity to relax and appreciate the outstanding service provided by our waiter and the other staff members who supported him. This restaurant has been serving quality meals and providing excellent service since 1984, and that experience clearly shows. With some updating to the dining room, I believe it could appeal to an even broader and younger audience while continuing to satisfy the longtime patrons who have supported it for so many years.

Outstanding food (been a client for 5 years & quality has always been even, just with excellent additions and improvements); excellent, friendly service, never rushed to leave. Close by, validated parking a definite plus in this area. Great that they offer half-bottles of wine too. What’s not to like?

The team at the restaurant is amazing. The food is great and delivered to the table in short order ( no pun intended). Chris and his team always do a fine job at this establishment. From your first drink at the beautiful bar to the fine dining at the table you can't beat this place for a family get together or a business meeting. I would recommend this restaurant for any true foodies who appreciate the work that goes into this presentation of dining excellence!

This is a wonderful restaurant! The food is delicious and we just love the seasonal specials. The chef is very creative and crafts unique dishes that you will not find anywhere else. The service is extremely attentive. There is also an extraordinary amount of options for people with allergies. We drive 30 minutes to eat here and will be back very soon.

Another great dining experience. Adam, our server, was the consummate gentleman, offering up a recap of the special items listed on the menu. He is very knowledgeable of the menu and the ingredients that are employed for each dish. Water and wine glasses are always tended to, and the wait staff, bus the table and crumb it in a timely manner. The food preparation is always to our liking, but the staff is happy to provide red pepper flakes, extra grated cheese, and a side of extra marinara, if we so desire. Special requests are always honored for dietary reasons. W&W is a carefree place to dine, where there are no surprises, just straight forward good eats!

    This place was unbelievable! From beginning to end, it was amazing. As a former bartender in Server), I have never had service like this. You feel like royalty. Justin was our server and he was phenomenal. The food was unbelievably good melted in your mouth. We had a strip, spicy shrimp vodka parm, oysters, Caesar salad, stuffed mushrooms, and the pappardelle with short rib. I have no words to explain how good this food is and the portions are generous. You have to go see for yourself! You will NOT be disappointed. Can’t wait to go back!
