The waitstaff was very nice and did a good job of explaining how the restaurant operates. The whole place has a cool, modern vibe that also feels a b...

👍👍 I love Idlewild and their unique concept. In a land full of basic, cookie cutter cocktail bars, Idlewild provides some respite from the pumpkin spiced lattes of the booze world.
