The Wilson

Excellent meal at The Wilson. The food was delicious and the service was outstanding. They have great seating both indoors and outdoors. A very nice dining option in Chelsea / Flatiron.

Went here 2 days in a row. It was that good!

Very good appetizers, especially the spicy tuna tacos. Hanger steak came out rare as ordered. Friendly and helpful service as well.

Loud/lots of yelping dogs

I went here with a friend for brunch. We were seated in the back ROSE GARDEN which at the time of reviewing was decorated beautifully with flowers, a swing and very cute decor. The food was fabulous and the restaurant is a good place to meet up with friends or family. The restaurant is in a hotel so weekends will often get busy. If you go ask to be seated in the rose garden, it’s a treat.

We love this place!!

A lot went wrong including items in the menu we were informed were not available, our servers were gone for long periods of time and our waiter kept changing, it took a few requests to receive things we asked for (like water, utensils). The food and drinks were not very good (one drink was more than half full of ice), only the chicken and mushrooms were enjoyable. This could have been such a better experience and I’m pretty disappointed.

Honestly a little too loud and service was incredibly slow. They did give us a free cookie but still, felt overpriced and took forever.

This is one of my favorite restaurant. Best overall value and package for experience! Will come back again!

Amazing as always.

Great food and service! The manager came out to speak to us amd was awesome.

My husband and I had a beautiful Valentines Day at The Wilson. The place is picture perfect and the ambiance will make you want to set up house and stay forever. The food was something of God and the service was just outstanding. Our waiter was so attentive, kind and super fun. Our new go-to spot.

Upbeat meet up location with a great food selection and great service!

This place is terrific, we go there often with our dog(yes they welcome dogs and have a special dog menu).
The food is complex and tasty. The drinks and the wines are superb and the service is outstanding.
I also had a buisness dinner there and my employees were raving about the place..
Highly recommended!!!!!!

This restaurant is right near our office and a perfect spot for off site lunches. They have great salads and the menus is well priced.

Solid food, Extremely nice and efficient servers. Louder in the open, glass well-lit front section. Quieter in the comfortable back section.

It is a very noisy place with chatter and music. The food was good but too prricy

We came for the oyster special on Thursday & ordered one entree from the table as everyone had a dozen oysters. The oysters were high quality and the drinks were good. I did like the entree we ordered, but in one star off for the short menu. I just think a few more dishes could be added.

We had a large group of adults celebrating my birthday. The entire service team made me feel special and ensured we had an excellent experience. We ordered a variety of dishes and everyone enjoyed their meals and drinks. The manager even brought us complimentary dessert with a birthday candle, and a staff member was kind enough to take a group photo of us. We sat at our table for over two hours and never felt rushed or unwelcome. After dinner all of my friends said what a great choice the restaurant was. I would not hesitate to recommend The Wilson for a special occasion.

By far my favorite place to eat in NYC! My husband and I ate here the first morning of our honeymoon in the city and ever since we have visited The National each time we have been in the city! We loved bringing our three children with us this trip and sharing the delicious food, great ambiance (all be it a little more energetic with three children dining with us!) but the attentive staff made it oh so worth it for all of us!

I had 6 people for dinner and everything that came was terrible and I never complain about restaurants. I had the burger it was fair, the chopped salad was arugula swimming in dressing it was mush, the signature chicken was dry and the ravioli was terrible.

We had breakfast for 9 on Sunday. Sunday early is only buffet but it was very delicious.

Food was good but overpriced for what it is like the rest of this restaurant group's places. It's a good option in this neighborhood, which doesn't have much, especially near MSG. Do yourself a favor and don't order the $8 bread - it's 2 pieces and some pita. Ridiculous they even charge for bread.

BEST place for dog lovers! The service is excellent, super friendly staff and they treat your fur-friend like a guest. We love this place for any get together.

Fabulous food and amazing staff. Glen and the team made us feel so welcome and they accommodated all our requests with a smile. The cocktails were perfect, just a top experience. We will be back and recommend to friends.

Fantastic food, service & ambience. The staff really make you feel like a valued customer and the lunch menu is awesome. Will be back!

We sat downstairs, and it's very lovely. Our table wobbled though, and no one was able to fix it so we had to contend with that. The food was great, but the service was slow and inattentive. However, the manager was very nice and was quick to process our credit card once we received the check.

My only regret is that I didn't know about this place sooner! The service was great, everyone nice and attentive. The food was delicious and there was such a great variety. The almond ricotta ravioli dish...wow! I'm not even vegan and it blew my mind. Also, you have to try the espresso flan with doughnuts. The drinks were also great, bartender even made us off menu cocktails that were amazing. Definitely returning.

The food and atmosphere are really good, but the attentiveness of the service is lacking. The appetizers were brought out just before the entrees arrived.

I had brunch there. The food is awesome. And the deco is delicate.

Very busy on a Wednesday evening. It took 10 minutes for a server to approach our table (and only after we asked), and he was a very odd guy. Started with the tuna tartare, we both had the falafel waffles and ended sharing their cookie skillet. The food was all very good. The service wasn’t great, and it seemed like there was one waiter for half the restaurant. We consistently had to ask for water refills. The manager kept checking on us and it felt awkward. The whole vibe was uncomfortable. But- loved the food! Maybe order for delivery?

Almond ravioli is not good! Needs to be taken off menu

The Wilson was a great date night for my husband and I. We shared a bottle of wine and all of the food together. The tuna crudo was light and refreshing and just what I wanted after a warm day of wandering through Chelsea. The octopus was prepared wonderfully and the brussel sprout tacos were definitely a treat! The scallops are definitely a must try- very tasty! We also had the special that evening, which was a pan seared branzino. It was my first time having branzino and the bar has been set really high.

Sal was our server and took very good care of us. He gave wonderful recommendations.

After we finished dinner, we waited almost an hour before somebody checked on our table again. We were hoping to have a quick business dinner and it turned into a nearly three and a half hour meal. We asked for the check four times before somebody finally brought it.

We really enjoyed the setting at the restaurant. The food was a nice quality but found the sauces a bit bland. Scallops were cooked beautifully.

Food is incredibly mediocre. Disappointing because spot is so cool with outdoor patio.

Excellent food and experience! I particularly enjoyed the vegetarian options

The Wilson is a well-located gem close to FIT and Penn Station, with a great outdoor area well protected from the elements. The food is delicious and the service very attentive and informed. My only complaint is that the wine list is limited and liquor prices are high

The Brussels sprout tacos were excellent! Good food....not outstanding. The service was good.

Great birthday service!
