The food was good. However the dessert was near frozen. Both the meal and dessert took way too long to come out, even surprising the waiter. The bar crowd is too close to the tables and bumping sitting patrons. The waiter was friendly. I won’t be returning.

We had a very pleasant early dinner at Worthwild on a blustery, rainy evening. They were very accommodating—they allowed us to come in and be seated early to escape the bad weather. I like the feeling of the place. A bar/dining room in the front which can get noisy, and also a dining room in the back that looks out on a small green space filled with plants. The staff is friendly, and attentive. Service was good. The food was really good too, with the exception of a cheese plate, which was okay but could have been more interesting, and the bread. It would be nice to have had a warm, crispy baguette with the cheese. Otherwise, shrimp polenta and pork belly and hamburger were all great. The French fries were soggy but we sent them back, and they did them over to perfection. We’ll definitely go back.

Wonderful dinner at Worthwild. The space is so charming, and the menu is wonderful. The pea crostini was fresh and delicious. The sea bass was cooked to perfection. And the chocolate fig tart was just sensational. Very generous portions, too. My server Jarrod was outstanding. An excellent dining option in an area with limited options.

Mixed bag. The chef had just changed his seasonal menu so the fish with figs and orange blossom which I had been looking forward to was pulled from the on site menu. I had a small plate of scallops with Pickled Ramp Pesto and Pickled Cauliflower . The scallops were small and the ramp flavor did not get highlighted. My dinner was the chicken which only came with a small bit of Spatzle. My friend was more impressed with her large servings on a small plate menu of steak tartare and grilled Octopus. The restaurant had one other table dining when we arrived. Reservations are not necessary. Neither one of us were really wowed.

Upon stepping inside I thought it was too casual for what I wanted for a business dinner especially when seeing the prices but honestly I was blown away by the service and knowledge of wines and food from our server, Jose. Then the food arrived and it surpassed all expectations. It was incredibly delicious and we ordered quite a number of things on the menu. The bottle of wine from France was stupendous and only $60. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who is a foodie and respectful service.

I found this place on open table and I was not disappointed. The atmosphere is very chill and welcoming. The servers and staff and nice and attentive. We started with the focaccia bread which was freshly baked and delicious. I had the lamb sirloin and it was very good, cooked perfectly and the sides it came with was delicious. Also had a French wine which was priced fairly good. I highly recommend this place for a calm dinner or outing with friends. And our server Alyssa was cool and kind .

Hosts were incredibly attentive to the guests and were kind and lovely. The food was alright, nothing that screams OMG, TRY US. The skillet pancake came rather flat. Supposed to what we saw online it should be fluffy. Ours came flat as a paper and to think that they would've redid it instead of assuming we wouldn't notice was quite disappointing. I may be wrong on this and that pancakes shuold've been flat, if so then disregard but with all the photos we've seen online- they come puffed overflowing over the skillet, ours came like a slab of egg in the skillet. portions of the Foir Gras came a bit uncooked on the french toast but that was a great plate, should try. Otherwise, the service was incredible and ambience was what we were looking for - quiet but with a lively vibe food was def "eh"

Warm cozy back dining room (albeit a bit too cozy during COVID times), very friendly service, and delicious dishes...loved the delicata squash & burrata, delicious branzino, & super tender juicy moist chicken (don't normally order chicken out since I make great chicken at home, but this was very well-prepared!)! Brussels sprouts were also good, but some parts a bit too crisp. Overall, highly recommend, awesome neighborhood spot for delicious food!

Worthwild is a nice neighborhood restaurant. My companion and I each had a starter and an entree, and we dined outdoors. I had the hunter's chicken—a half chicken on vegetable puree—as an entree and mussels to start. My companion had battered mushrooms to start and a burger for entree. Everything we had was enjoyable. Nothing was extraordinary, but the prices were reasonable and commensurate with the food. The only thing we would have liked was a few more options on the menu; it is small. If you're going to go, make sure you check the menu to make sure one of the offerings is interesting to you.
