Loved our dinner at Wishbone! Everyone who works there is so incredibly nice and professional. We felt very well taken care of. Everyday they have cocktail specials are you kidding me??

What Anonym dislikes about Wishbone:
Service was really bad. Our waiter couldn’t explain the menu, he had no idea what the specials were. When asked what he recommended he said he had not tasted some of the dishes so he couldn’t recommend them. He was slow, and seemed disoriented. Food was ok, some of the portions were a lot of food, others too little. Very few people, and music was really loud, we couldn’t talk and we were only tables taken. The place... View all feedback.

The food at this restaurant is always amazing, and the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. We used to love Wishbone at their previous location on Morgan, but their new spot on Jefferson is conveniently located with street parking available in the evenings. The menu includes all of our favorite dishes, prepared perfectly and at a reasonable price. It's a comfortable and enjoyable place to eat.

Food is as good as ever, which is to say, Pretty Darn Good! The noise level was good when we walked in, except for the music, which the waiter turned down. Then, as lunch proceeded, it got noisier and noisier. But we definitely recommend it. The new restaurant is lovely, bright and welcoming.

I love going to Wishbone for lunch. The food has been outstanding each time and I've brought several people there on different occasions that also enjoyed it.
