    Amazing service. We had to have a quick lunch meeting and they brought our food out right away. The presentation of the food was jaw-dropping, but what was more amazing was the way it tasted. Will be coming back.

    An amazing experience as always. We went to celebrate a birthday with friends. When we got there, the staff had all signed a birthday card. A lovely personal touch. The food and service were stellar. This is why we drive 45 minutes to eat there. We can always guarantee excellent food and service.

    We had read about their great fried chicken. Expecting bone-in chicken with southern sides we were disappointed that they only offered a chicken sandwich. The catfish was highly recommended, but the hushpuppies were gummy, and other than tartar sauce, the usual catfish accompaniments were not provided (lemon, onion, tomato relish, hotsauce). The three pieces of catfish were not alot, although they were cooked very well and did not have excessive breading. For breakfast the biscuits with sausage gravy lacked any evidence of sausage, but upon complaint we were provided a side of sausage.

    Delicious and exceptional! The food was delicious, and the staff were very friendly. The Black Canyon Delmonico was one of the best ribeyes I’ve had at a restaurant, and my wife had the blackened catfish over risotto which was equally outstanding. It is worth the drive! And our stay at the Louis Hotel was equally phenomenal!
    Wilson CafeResponded on September 2, 2026
    Thank you for the fantastic review! We're thrilled you enjoyed the Black Canyon Delmonico and the blackened catfish over risotto. We're glad the staff made you feel welcome, and that the drive and your stay at the Louis Hotel were worth it. We look forward to serving you again on your next visit.

    We ate there for dinner and lunch. Food was delicious, seasoned well and served hot. Service was outstanding. The servers were personable and attentive without hovering. The atmosphere was comfortable. We definitely will return.

    Susan, thank you so much for joining us for both lunch and dinner—having you choose to spend two meals with us is a compliment in itself. We are delighted that the food was delicious, well-seasoned, and served hot, and your kind words about our service team mean just as much. Being personable and attentive without hovering is exactly the balance we strive for. I will proudly share your comments with both our kitchen and service teams. We truly appreciate your recommendation and look forward to welcoming you back to Wilson Café & Tavern soon!
