Best Modern Southern American Restaurants in Wheaton

First, would I recommend this place? Yes! Not only is the service great but the bartenders, waitress and chefs work as a team. Julian the bartender has a great personality and kept my family and I laughing throughout our time. To add, we never felt unseen even though it was a full house. Great dishes as well! We went with their suggested favorites but we will be back. Also it’s in a great location. We parked in the garage and it was a short walk to the front door. I would rate it 10/10.

We went to Mallard's for Valentine's Day weekend. We had seen a great article about it in the Washington Post. It was our first time there and we enjoyed it! The food was great, even though they had a curated set of options for the holiday. We enjoyed what we had, especially the waygu beef entree, and we look forward to exploring the broader dinner menu which looked spectacular. The service was exceptional and our server was attentive, personable, and insightful. Well done, Mallard. We look forward to our next visit!

I thoroughly enjoyed my dining experience at Ms. Toya’s Southern Kitchen! The food was delicious and flavorful, the drinks were on point and the service was A plus! I will be back!

Excellent host! Manager acknowledged our anniversary noted on our reservation. We received a complimentary appetizer and complimentary mimosa! Our server was superb. She gave us options and ideas for our meaI, which turned out great. I asked for warm blueberry jam and she worked it out for me. The food was fresh and simply delicious. Great overall service. 👌

Oh my god. I was hesitant to go here at first because of a few negative reviews I read. But, I went and let me tell you, I’ll be going back. From start to finish, everything & everybody was fantastic. The food was delish; came out fast and it was hot; the waitress was attentive and friendly; the ambiance was 100. Can’t say enough good things about YardBird. I’m just glad i didn’t base my experience off of other reviews. Go! You won’t regret it.
