    Great dinner experience in a gorgeous space. The vegetable-centric menu is packed with flavor and creatively used spices and ingredient combinations. The saffron cashew cream artichoke pasta was the absolute star of the menu. The chicken roulade - not something I often order at restaurants - was savory and satisfying. Royal trumpets were nice but the Beans, Greens & rice dish and gnocchi left something to be disired. I personally would've appreciated more seafood/fish options. A pricey dinner but an overall great experience with fantastic service.

    Easily one of my favorite meals in quite some time. The food at the Wesley was excellent. The menu is small but definitely packs a punch. The highlights for me was the gnocchi which was excellent and savory and flavorful and the chicken which was fresh and seasoned well. The staff was a delight and the cocktails were good. Good atmosphere which I enjoyed. Lively yet not too wild. Definitely will be returning to try other items on the menu.

    It was the perfect little outdoor spot that my friends and I got to relax after work. The food is absolutely amazing and the staff were phenomenal making sure we had everything we needed and were extremely attentive and friendly. I HIGHLY recommend the punch cocktail and the bison! The cocktails and the food were so balanced. I downed the punch so quickly I couldn’t even take a pic of it.

    I absolutely LOVED The Wesley. The whole meal was an experience, a combination of appreciation for the beautiful design aesthetic, educational knowing about how the food & drinks were sourced and made and exceptional food that I truly just couldn’t get enough of. I came in last night and had the delight of being served by Michael. My best-friend and I shared 3 of the smaller dishes (oyster special, butternut squash & butter gem salad) and the duck special that was phenomenal. The oyster special with raw oysters that were warm in the shell, I literally will be dreaming about this dish for days to come. And the icing on the cake was the adorable glass honeybee holder that came out with the hot tea - so many gorgeous little details that made the meal so memorable. I am so happy that I got dine at The Wesley!

    The service is outstanding and made for such an enjoyable night. Our server was friendly, knowledgeable and took good care of us, as did the rest of the staff who cleared plates and brought each of the amazing dishes we sampled. We did the 3-course offering with the wine pairing and it was such a fun way to try so many different things on the menu. The baby lettuce with almond ricotta was so good and the mushroom ceviche was interesting, but I thought the sauce was a bit overpowering. The gnocci and the peas and carrots were delicious. I also had the chicken roulade which was wonderful ,but I wish the corn had a stronger presence. The wines were all amazing and I loved that they offered a cocktail as a substitute for the first wine pairing. We got there early (6pm) so it was pretty quiet, but the noise level really ramped up. Will definitely be back!

    Wonderful! Felt light and healthy. Portions are very small but still delicious. The gnocchi and desserts were our favorite. The cocktails were great as well!

    Had an amazing date night here. I can't believe I've missed going to this place for a whole year. The food was amazing. The drinks were even more fun and tasty. The ambiance was on point, such a cozy, relaxing environment they've created. The best part was the staff. The manager talked to us several times and told us some backstory on the place, which I loved. And our waiter described the dishes so well and helped us pace out our meal and drinks the way we wanted. Super attentive. And also gave excellent recommendations for wine pairings. Just all around awesome place. Very rarely do I say this when I go to a restaurant but the staff just did so amazing I felt at home there. Going back soon when they change the menu up in a couple weeks.

    We ate here on their inaugural day of brunch service and were very impressed. The restaurant was mostly empty except for a few tables during our 12:30 reservation, and the entire front of house staff was very friendly and welcoming. Our server was kind enough to place us at a table that was conducive to having our two small children with us, and was excited to share all of her expertise about the menu. The head bartender also stopped by a few times to tell us about all of the interesting drinks she had created, as well as offer suggestions from their wine list. We enjoyed the Bitter Blush and Punch cocktails to start, along with the mezze board and potatos a la plancha. For our main meals, we ordered the mushroom sandwich, chimichurri wrap, and bison burger, while the kids shared the buckwheat pancakes. All were excellent, though our favorites were the burger and wrap. The space is very cozy, but has a classy, chic feel and is arranged in several small rooms adjacent to the front bar area. Definitely worth a stop for vegan-leaning (almost everything is devoid of dairy) cuisine with fantastic drinks and a unique wine list.
