Great spot for shareable plates. Our waiter was very friendly and personable, knowledgeable about the menu, and even split our burger for us without us asking which was a perfect touch. The hot sauce was delicious on the fried chicken, and the Brussels sprouts were some of the best we’ve had in the city.
Went in without a reservation this past Saturday before Christmas, and the place was absolutely packed—not to mention the ciyy had a power outage earlier, which added to the chaos. Despite all that, two spots opened up at the bar and we happily grabbed them. Our bartender was okay—not overly friendly, but attentive. The other two bartenders, however, were fantastic: great service, fun personalities, and really elevated the experience. When the food arrived, both the cheeseburger and the clam chowder were explosive on the palate—rich, flavorful, and clearly done right. Everything hit the spot. Next time, I’d love to try sitting at a table, but the bar by the kitchen looks like a fun place to eat and people-watch. Overall, it was a really good experience, especially considering we walked in without a reservation. Spent about $95 total (including tip) for two drinks and two dishes, and it felt well worth
Cute vibey atmosphere, With a lovely selection of cocktails. We came here for my birthday. Anthony was our waiter and had great professional service, he was kind thoughtful and left a good experience. The food was good, I would appreciate a little more of a flavor profile but nice presentation and cook to all the food.
Great food and service. Small tables, girl in the front just shrugged her shoulders. And said, it's fine for other people. We walked in at 4:30 for dinner on a Sunday night. There were few early diners. It was not exactly rocking and rolling. Tables besides were empty till 6:30. We were trying not to have the other stuff ie: coffee cups sides dishes. Not fall off the table. I ended up putting my saucer coffee next to table beside us. I like to eat my food all together. Our waiter was definitely trained to be attentive and knowledgeable. He got our special order of all white meat on the fried chicken. Of course, with a nominal fee. Dessert was perfectly not too sweet and with a chocolate crust. We will be back. If I get a bigger table for dinner. It is Tyler Florences's restaurant.
Our fifth anniversary was nothing short of magic, and Wayfare Tavern made it unforgettable. ✨ From the moment we walked in, we were met with warmth and grace—three heartfelt “Happy Anniversaries” from the host, our server, and even as we paid the bill. That kind of attention doesn’t just make a dinner—it makes a memory. The interiors were a dream, designed by the ever-talented Jon de la Cruz, a kababayan whose work truly captures both elegance and soul. If you ever dine here, touch the wallpaper. Trust me—it’s art you can feel. Before our meal even began, we were surprised with a complimentary champagne toast, a simple yet profoundly touching gesture. Then came the popover, buttery, golden, and cloud-soft—honestly one of life’s small perfections. We started with Deviled Eggs, and I can confidently say—these were the best I’ve ever had. Each bite was creamy, tangy, and perfectly seasoned. The Tavern Burger arrived, accompanied by dangerously addictive shoestring fries—one bite and I understood why it’s legendary. Then, as a self-proclaimed fried-chicken devotee, the California Fried Chicken took my breath away: crisp, juicy, full of heart, and unmistakably Californian. And to end the savory symphony, the Burrata Whipped Potatoes—so delicate, buttery, and dreamy, they could melt even the coldest heart. Wayfare Tavern isn’t just a restaurant—it’s an experience, a love letter written in butter, wine, and grace. 🍾✨ Thank you, Chef Tyler Florence and team, for giving our love story the most delicious chapter yet. ❤️ 📸 Photos posted with no filter—just pure authenticity and love for great food.
