Amazing experience. The Wellington burger was the best burger I ever had with tasty french fries. It was so delicious along with the fresh brewed coffee and fresh squeezed lemonade. The service was excellent and atmosphere was very pleasant with jazz.

The food was terrible. Ordered the Lamb Sharma. Came out 5 minutes later and was cold and the 'tandoori' clay pot was cold. Ugh..sent it back. Ordered French Onion soup instead. So salty and awful. Paid the bill and was never told there is a 4% kitchen appreciation fee. That's ok. Just tell me before I leave the tip. Avoid this restaurant at all costs.

If you're looking for an establishment that provides both relaxing, ambience and superior food, The Wellington is for you!

I'll start with a positive, food was ok. Overpriced yes, but decent food. Service was bad. Waiter couldn't wait to get rid of us, at 6:30. Limited menu for sure. Maybe with a broader menu and a few lower priced items they would fill the room more than 15%. Glasses, both water and wine sat empty for almost the entire meal. Also the techno music doesn't fit the bill for this place. Open cooking area, you can tell more interested in shutting down than cooking food. Overpriced for sure. Could be a nice place if they tried.x

It was our first time here. Dinner and drinks were great, however, service was a bit slow on a Saturday night.

The food was just ok and a bit pricey. The drink menu was interesting and drinks were well made. We had a party of 6 and 3 of us got dessert. I had the Belgium waffle sundae with fresh berries and it was delicious. My only concern is that we didn't get itemized receipt so wasn't sure if tip was added etc. we didn't ask for one just paid. Most likely won't go back.

Food was very subpar for the price. Nothing special. Drinks were ok. Atmosphere was nice.

A decent place to have a meal with a nice ambiance but ultimately lacking in flavor and much too ordinary a concept. Also mistakes on the menu whereby items on menu were not present in dish, and items in dish not listed on menu.The burrata appetizer is an example: the cheese itself was fresh and delicious with a nice rougher outer layer balanced by the softer inner layer. The preserved meat salami was great as were the figs and the berry jam. But the menu mentioned beets and there were none provided. We checked w the waiter and he said that the recipe changed and so wasn't included! If I were them would have reduced the price or provided some beets on the side.The Caesar salad was good but the lettuce and flavoring was nothing special. The parmesan chips were a nice touch as was the pumpernickel croutons. There needed to be more flavoring on the sauce.The shrimp and grits was good. The grits were rich and creamy and the shrimp was spongy with a nice bite to it [though they could be meatier]. Generally a good dish.The Mahi Mahi could have been more flavorful and a tad less well-done. The coconut broth was gentle and delicate, and the tomatoes were a nice addition. The ginger however was way strong and there needed to be fewer strands of ginger or the ginger strands needed to be thinner. They also need to be cited on the menu!The service was excellent and helpful. The pricing was probably more than I think the meal is worth though that's true for a lot of restaurants in an era of high inflation.Check this place out and see what you think!

This is a great neighborhood restaurant. Food is good, beer and wine selection is very nice. It definitely has the feel of a warm,comfortable, friendly place. The go to local spot. I have been there for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Always a good meal.

The food is good. The service though is excellent. However it's not that outstanding for the price. I want to like this place more than I do.

Atmosphere and food are good. AVOID takeout. I've tried to support this restaurant and every take out order I've ever made has been wrong. It's really frustrating. My recommendation is to dine-in only.

Very good brunch, had an eggs benedict with spinach, and brunch potatoes. Everything was cooked perfectly, and the potatoes were a treat, super crispy and covered with sweet red and yellow peppers.

Calling our third (and last) visit to the Wellington a crushing disappointment would be a gross understatement. We chose the neighborhood restaurant for a rare date night and we were prepared to spend a leisurely evening on the patio. Half an hour after we were seated, we were still waiting to be offered a beverage. Eventually, our food and beverage order was taken and we were told a couple of times that was everything was "on its way". An hour passed by, and our table still had no water, let alone the beverages we ordered (picture below). We finally decided to tell the hostess that we were ready to leave, at which point we were offered the opportunity to speak with the manager. The manager was apologetic and tried to make amends. Unfortunately, not even offering the lowest price item as a complimentary dish made up for the disappointing experience. We have frequented Dante's sister restaurant il Casale a few times a year since they first opened, and we are baffled at how differently the two locations operate even they are only a few steps apart.
