Diner Reviews

"The temperature of the bistro was so cold that our meal was instantly cold."
Dined on 7/16/2014
"I have always loved to dine at Wheatfields because I believed that Wheatfields prepared gluten free pasta the best in the area. Not sure if the night I dined at Wheatfields was an off night but the pasta was overcooked and the crumbled sausage was over cooked and dry. The gluten free bread was dry and I could not eat only 1 piece because it was so dry the bread was caught in my throat. My friend had the goat pizza and loved it."

"Nothing blew me away about Wheatfields. I do appreciate a good homemade pasta, and theirs was moderately good. I got spaghetti and meatballs (it was a Monday). The sauce tasted like canned sauce, despite them insisting its homemade, and the meatballs were a bit bread-y. My partner got the crab mac & cheese which was much better than mine. I think it's a bit too expensive for what it offers. The service left something to be wanted as well."

"Went there for my anniversary the hostess was excellent and put us in a more secluded section. Bartender was fantastic checked up on us frequently but not over the top, and the food was great recommend the gnocchi to everyone."

"We really like dining at Wheatfields except for the temperature, it's really too cold because the air conditioner is turned up too high - even the fire place they have going at the same time can't beat the airco."
Dined on 6/15/2014
"I found the establishment very receptive to my needs. I ordered flowers to be delivered to the table and this was done. The staff was great and the food was very tasty. A very enjoyable experience for my first time there. I have already recommended your place to some friends."
Dined on 6/14/2014
"Last time we ate here was better. I wondered if they changed chefs because same dishes were prepared differently. Service wasn't great. The food was tasty but just not quite as good as previous visits."
Dined on 6/1/2014
"We went at 7:30 on a Friday. We were 2 couples. It was so loud we struggled to hold conversation. Most people appeared to have been there since work - happy hour noise level. By the time our food came it had quieted and we were more comfortable and you could hear the piano player. The food was really great and so was the service."
Dined on 5/30/2014
"we went thirty minutes before closing, our orders were messed up, when the proper orders were delivered they were inedible, and to top it off they were sweeping and cleaning all around us. we will never go back!"

"We been to both your places and this one is just as good as saratoga"

"Had an excellent brunch on Sunday, 5/18. Love that this restaurant offers a gluten free menu."

"Food was average, service was average. Did not like being seating out near the bar... Way too loud and crowded. Couldn't get between tables to get to your table, wait staff stuggled as well. People that make dinner reservations are looking to have a nice dinner should be seating in the dining room. People that come in without a reservation can be offered the option of seating out at the bar area if they don't want to wait. I couldn't wait to get out of there. Was no way a relaxing end to the work week at all. I was given a gift certificate by someone that loves the place and I have to say I'm glad I wasn't paying. Will Not be eagerly planning our next trip there!"

"We usually love Wheatfields but out Mothers Day visit was less than par. We waited 15 minutes before anyone came over to our table, then the waitress took our drink order only. She dropped off our drinks and disappeared. When she came back and took our order it was very rushed. I watched her spend more time with outside tables than inside. We were not the only table waiting. When we got our meals, my food wasn't that great and my son did not get the dish he ordered even though the waitress and manager insisted it was right. Moment to get the bill, it was the wrong dish. We might be looking for a new favorite restaurant."

"Family of 4 - Experienced long delay for entrees. Server did a nice job of keeping us updated on the status. After the wait my steak was slightly overcooked. Eventhough we did not complain at all about the wait or the over cooked steak, the server offerred to not charge us for our desserts."

" We arrived for our 7:15 reservation early and had a delicious white Sangria at the bar. We were seated at 7:25 and ordered a chopped salad and calamari. Both were very good. After that the night went downhill. We sat waiting for our entrees (4 pasta dishes) until 9:30. Our waiter, Sam, was apologetic at first but then avoided us a little. (Not his fault) When we complained he offered to let us speak with the manager. She said the kitchen got backed up and our order was next. When the meals arrived almost 15 minutes later 3 of the 4 dishes were cold. We did not complain at that point since everyone was hungry. We were comped the appetizers and one drink and we were given a gift card. We may try again."
Dined on 5/10/2014
"We ordered a bottle of wine and the waiter brought over the wrong bottle. We then learned they were out of the wine we wanted. We ordered a second bottle and again he brought the wrong wine. Finally the manager came over and said they were out of that wine as well. Wine selection was limited. I would not consider this a "wine bar". Children were everywhere. It's a restaurant that serves alcohol. Very misleading. "

"I have had some wonderful romantic dinners at Wheatfields in Saratoga but this Bistro in Clifton Park falls short. Food was unimpressive. Foodies will be disappointed despite the appetizing sounding menu. Waitstaff was attentive, and the 'new girl' in training did her best. No complaints there. Two different dining rooms make for a very different experience depending where you are seated. We asked to be moved from a corner table abutting a separating wall in the back room to the front by the window which was much nicer. Overall a fair experience."

"Had a reunion dinner with our daughter and her husband, visiting from Buffalo. The food was very good and the service was outstanding!"
Dined on 4/26/2014
"My 90 year old dad is very particular but Wheatfields met his high standards. The mushroom radiatore will be a big reason to return with Dad."
Dined on 4/19/2014
"My 96 old Mother , husband and myself were readily welcomed, seated and served walker and all. The Manhattan Mom had she said was the best ! Salads were very easy and large, Pizza was excellent. Recommended for all times of day and for all ages."

"We had a great lunch made more special by the very sweet server, who was always attentive but never intrusive! "
Dined on 4/17/2014
"Despite other recent reviews of Wheatfields, we had both good food and service during our visit, although we ate early and the place was still half empty by the time we left at 6:30."

"I was there for a birthday celebration with 3 friends. The waitress was great, very knowledgeable about the food. The food was very good and the drinks were delicious too. We had an excellent time."

"first time there. looked at menu and saw high end food and pricing. inlaws wanted to go to 99. thought I would treat them. food was excellent. place was loud. we were moved from the bar area to dining area to help and barely better. was making this a special anniversary dinner and highly dissappointed on the noise level. noticed curtains that could have been used to drop the noise level, but not used. recommend the wait staff actually sit down and try to have a conversation. impossible. won't return or recommend"

"A friend of mine & I have been meeting here once a month for lunch for almost a year, this is by far the worst service and food we've had. We've had slow service before and food we didn't really care for but this was horrible. One of the meals we received was wrong & it took almost 25 minutes to find someone to let them know that we received the wrong food. Then we were told we received what we received because they didn't have all the ingredients listed on the menu. We there for over an hour & half & never received refills on our drinks & there wasn't anyone to ask for them. When we received our bill we had been over charged, we again couldn't find the waiter to have the bill corrected we had to go to hostess to have it fixed."

"I have been going to wheat fields for a couple of years and just went this past Saturday. The menu has changed and so has the food. The taste and preparation is not as good as it used to be, not that it was ba bad dinner but wheatfields no longer stands out as a premier restaurant."
Dined on 4/5/2014
"spent $23 bucks on a meal that featured shrimp and pasta. It had 4 shrimp and chewy pasta.Server was a busy guy hardly had time for us.Not going back."

"It is very nice. There is a fireplace, and the mixed drinks were good. The entrees were priced well and the dessert was amazing."

"Wheatfield's has become one of our favorite local restaurants. Both the food and the service are always excellent. Plenty of gluten-free options to choose from. We'll be back again and again!"

"The waitress we had was horrible. She was rude and pushy. Otherwise it was good"
Dined on 3/28/2014
"Great food, however the service seems to not be as great as it once was. Great gluten free options!"
Dined on 3/28/2014
"Used open table and had special request for seating which Wheatfields followed perfectly which was very much appreciated. Food was very good. Will return for sure. Open kitchen makes it a bit noisy but otherwise great time."
Dined on 3/22/2014
"A friend and I have been waiting to get together for awhile...and we had three choices for Clifton Park...but decided on the Wheatfields Brunch because of the ambience and the additonal of a piano player - who was very talented and perfect for the occasion. We enjoyed our meal and cocktail choices very much, the waitress was very charming and also very good at checking back with us at just the right times. Would return for another brunch or lunch anytime!"
Dined on 3/9/2014
"We were not seated until 25 minutes after our "Open Table Reservation". We waited at the bar area, and the Manager approached us to ask if we were waiting for a reservation. We advised her that we made one on Open Table and that the Hostess was not concerned that we had been left waiting. The Hostess was very discourteous to us. The manager offered us a 'bar table' but we had asked to be seating in the dining area. We got the feeling that they needed the bar table to seat others who were waiting. This took away from the whole dining experience. If I were the manager, at the very least, I would have offered to buy a round of drinks for the inconvenience."

"Made a 7:00p reservation but wasn't seated until 7:30p. Asked for the front room but seated in the rear room."
Dined on 2/28/2014
"I ordered the special Lobster Ravioli it was way to firm. Either two things happened. It was siting under a heat lamp to long or it was under cooked. If the pasta is made fresh there this makes me believe that it was left under a heat lamp. Either way my meal was just ok. Not impressed for 22 dollars."
Dined on 2/22/2014
"We went for our anniversary they asked us if we would like to sit by the fireplace instead of by the windows and they gave us a complementary dessert to share. Our server, John, was wonderful, our food came out nicely timed, it didn't seem rushed. When our entrees cane out they were piping hot. We had a very nice experience and plan to come back again."
Dined on 2/21/2014
"This was our first time at this location and we were not disappointed. Food and ambience were excellent. Our server was knowledgeable, friendly and attentive. If there was anything negative to say it would be although the food was delicious the pasta was a bit soggy. We prefer al dente. This was a minor issue in the larger scope of things. We would definitely come back."
Dined on 2/15/2014
"Took my girlfriend there for valentine’s day. We started with a few cocktails and homemade Bruscetta, was fantastic especially the balsamic topping they used. I had the spinach fettuccini Alfredo. Very good didn’t feel too heavy. My girlfriend had the pasta rigatoni. It was some of the best pasta noodles we have ever had."
