Every dish was well done - lamb was a standout. Pistachio cheesecake was one of the best desserts I’ve ever had. Wine list was excellent. Great service and ambience - I highly recommend this local spot!

We had a wonderful experience at Wild Chicory. Austin made our experience 10/10 with his above and beyond service from the moment we walked in the door. The food was phenomenal. Really could not have been happier with our dinner, we will certainly be back!
