"I am no foodie but do enjoy a good meal, presented well by good waitstaff in beautiful surroundings. Based on the hype, I had very high expectations for W&W.

The restaurant was nice but not the exceptional I was expecting from Four Seasons. We were seated with a window view - usually a plus. However, there was too much glare and the manager was unable to override the automatic shades. The view was mainly a concrete patio, hose and wooden fence with a marginal view of the harbor above it.

The food was good to very good but not worth the price."

"W&w is still working out some kinks but it is well on its way to being a first class dining room. Desserts were terrific! Music was HORRIBLE for a holiday brunch. Sounded more like bar music - all rock. Light jazz would have been better. Service was excellent."

"I never mind spending a lot of money for a really phenomenal meal but this restaurant is just not a good value. Food was good, different, but for what we paid for a dinner for four I would have gone elsewhere in the neighborhood. Go for drinks at the bar and eat elsewhere. Service was good until you ordered dessert and then it was a server wasteland."

"This was my first visit and we enjoyed our meals My roasted rockfish was well-preprared and my desert (apple crisp) was very good. I had lunch with my family, including my 19 and 14 year old sons, and everyone liked their meals."

"Went there for brunch one Sunday. Service was outstanding and the attention to detail was appreciated. I had the Dutch Pancake and my wife had shrimp grits, which were both awesome and more than enough. Its a beautful view in a beautiful space. Be prepared to spend money, though. Our bill for two was over $70 plus tax and tip. We looked forward to a return visit and dinner on a special occasion."

"The place is cool...though not your typical Four Seasons restaurant. The food was good but not great, especially for the price. We probably won't be back but it's worth going once. But definitely not nearly as good for special occasion as Charleston and not as good as TenTen if you want a new place to try."
