    Every server was kind, helpful and accommodating . They took measures to meet our every need . When the wind kicked outdoors they asked if we wanted to move indoors or have a heater brought over. We didn’t even ask . We must have interacted with 6 people and each and every one of them was wonderful.

    My dear friends are visiting from Amsterdam and I wanted them to have a memroable dining experience. Our lunch at Cafe Wisteria was a perfect choice. The food was delicious, the service wonderful but not intrusive. Wandering around the grounds afterward was very fun and special.

    Delicious! We had Chinese Chicken, Salad and Salad Nicoise. Desert was Chocolate Lava Cake. The food was great. Of course the naturally beautiful setting added to an amazing fall afternoon. Our servers were attentive and helpful. Wisteria is always consistent in terms of delicious food and I feel the staff always gives their best. I've been going there for years and have always trusted it as a go to location for business lunches as well as family and friends outings.

    What a delightful and inviting place to dine. The surroundings are so beautiful and inviting. A beautiful setting to meet up with a friend and enjoy a quiet lunch. The menu had good selections and hot foods served hot. The 'creamy iced coffee' was a bit too sweet for me and would have probably enjoyed it in a taller glass. They were very accommodating and caring about food allergies as listed on Open Table. One must save room for dessert! The ginger creme brulee and the chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream were outstanding. Their regular hot coffee was great. Meant to ask what coffee they served.

    Menu choices were great. We had the Wagu burger and French onion soup and a side of garlic bread . Servers were very professional and friendly. Just found out that they’re open year round. We will be back often!
