We came in as a large group and they were able to seat us within a reasonable time frame. Food came out quick and was very good. There's a full bar, large wine selection and craft beers. They have lots of vegan and vegetarian options.
The atmosphere could be a little better, but the food was spot on! I had the most delicious house made gluten free rigatoni with ham and peas in a parmesan cream sauce, absolutely delicious! The separate allergy menu was clearly marked. Food was definitely 5 star, cleanliness and atmosphere 4 star. Good service.
A lovely atmosphere is to be had at Wheat Penny. The servers here are absolutely top notch. Eric, Amber and Isabella are terrific. They're personable, helpful and they make one feel truly welcome. The Classic Vegetable soup is delicious! Plenty of chic peas and very filling. I could have eaten those crouton garnishes all day. I also tried an original Gin drink called Persian Spring. As a mixologist I'm usually tough on new drink inventions but this time I'm quite surprised and delighted! It's mixed with rose water, rose syrup and Empress 1908 purple Gin. Refreshing and complex enough to be a conversation piece. It's garnished with edible rose petals and a piece of candied lemon. Absolutely wonderful! Highly recommended for foodies and lovers of fine Gin drinks. Will definitely visit again! ????
