The meal started out with these awesome popover things. They were light and flakey and I had 2 of them. The Mac and Cheese was excellent, if a bit rich. The cheese was quite refined (I’m sure it was made using some obscure cheese and not anything akin to cheddar). I ordered the Steak Frites (basically steak with pomme frites). It was very tasty and the steak was cooked perfectly. I thought the fries were pretty good, but definitely not the best I’ve ever had. I had a taste of the Chicken Waldorf Sandwich and it was very good. I liked the way the savory chicken was blended with the apples and celery mixture. I also tasted the Fried Chicken. The Fried Chicken was good and the chicken was seasoned well. I will say that Hard Knox is better. But this Fried Chicken was totally yummy.
If you’re pinching pennies don’t come here. All of the lunch meals are $18 and over. I seriously think they took the dinner menu, labeled it “lunch”, and then took off $2 for each item. The food is actually a bit heavy and rich. This is also not a place to come if you want a light meal. If you go here for lunch and are heading back to the office be forewarned that you will not be productive the rest of the day.
Overall, I enjoyed the food and service at Wayfare Tavern. I will be coming back on a day when its okay for me to be in a food coma after my meal.
