Very messy eating roasted shrimp in sauce with the shells left on! Filet mignonette sliders were dry and just so-so. Skillet bread and beet salad were good.

Love the small plates. Food overall was delicious. The only suggestion would be to have some sauce or dip for the crab tacos. They were a tad dry.

We are regular visitors at all Starks locations and had a reservation but we were told , with a near empty restaurant, we had to sit at the one table 5 feet in front of the door because other reservations were coming later. Many tables sat empty the whole time we were there....and we froze by the door. It did not make for a fun birthday dinner. Disappointed in the customer service for sure.

Always interesting fun food - I am starting to be a regular! My go-to place for houseguests. The only downside is when the restaurant is full, it can be very noisy.

Every "small" plate was delicious and three of us got an ample amount of food for each plate. Service was wonderful and food came out timely, even when we ordered more dishes! Our server was wonderful and we definitely will tell others about our experience.

One of my favorite places. Always has a friendly neighborhood atmosphere. We had the Filet Sliders, the were amazing! You don't even need a knife to cut them, they are so tender, and the creamed spinach in them is so delicious!

The veggie dishes were superb: beets & goat cheese, raw mushroom salad (FABULOUS), grilled asparagus (the classic gribiche sauce makes a return--yes!). Roasted shrimp were good. Lamb chops were cooked on-point, but would have preferred hot couscous as side, not a cold couscous. Roast duck w/cheddar polenta: duck was great, polenta was delicious - but the gravy looked and tasted exactly like Campbell's pork 'n' beans....ugh, much too sweet. Service was excellent, parking was easy (this was lunchtime, on a Saturday). Happy to have Willi's open again!

Willi’s is a quaint wine bar offering a nice variety of wines and other cocktails along with small bites. Don’t let the “small” bites trick you they were enough for two maybe even three people to share and fabulous!! I highly recommend Willi’s Wine Bar.

We were greeted by a friendly hostess. She gave us a choice of tables and wished us a Happy Anniversary. Our server Meagen was friendly and efficient. Our food was delicious! We had the warm spinach salad, Lamb chops, Liberty duck over polenta, MuShu bacon crepes and chocolate flour-less cake dessert. They were excellent, as always. This is a great place to celebrate any occasion or just go because it's so good.

We were warmly greeted by reception and our server. Unfortunately we found the food lackluster and were left with virtually no follow up from our server through a very leisurely lunch. This was my first time at Willi's and after hearing good things, I'm quite disappointed.

It was a great way to spend a couple of hours with our son and daughter-in-law on a lazy Sunday. The food was delicious but the service was uneven and we could have used a little more attention, especially since there were not a lot of guests at the time.

The bread was fantastic. The arugula salad could have been better; more avocado and almonds; two tiny slices of avocado and skimpy on the almonds. . The David Bynum Sauvignon Blanc wine delicious.

We had a reservation on a Tuesday evening and even though we were celebrating a birthday and requested a 4 top so we could sit next to each other (I explained I am hard of hearing so we wanted to sit side by side) we were only offered a 2 top, then proceeded to watch the hostess seat another couple at a 4 top only about 10 minutes later, and two other 4 tops sat empty for the whole 90 minutes we were there. It was disappointing since we rarely treat ourselves to a dinner like this. I am a regular Starks customer for over 15 years, and I love their restaurants, but the staff that evening wasn't on par.
