We had reservations on February 13...our server was awesome...the rest of the experience not so much. We waited over an hour for our food. The prime rib was ok but the chicken was awful...it was dry and burnt on the bottom. Our server said she wasnt sure what was going on in the kitchen with it taking over an hour for the food to come out. This was our first visit at Wildflower and we are not planning on returning. Sure was disappointed we didn't have a better experience.

This is the best kept secret in the South. Truly a unique dining experience, simple, yet refined with a top notch staff.

Drove 3 hours just to eat and get told at 4 pm not taking any people reservations not required but yet turn people away at the door . Poor management do not recommend

absolutely abysmal. Reheating bags of frozen food is not what was expected. $33 for two Reheated Walmart frozen food is ridiculous.
Avoid at all costs. Sad

Had lunch at the Wildflower cafe. The restaurant has a real eclectic feel. Decorated very nicely. We were seated as soon as we arrived. Elijah took very good care of us and had a very nice personality. We both ordered the loaded shrimp and gritts plus a side salad. It did not take long to prepare. Being loaded we expected lots of shrimp. They had lots of very good ingredients and it tasted good. However neither of us found any shrimp in our shrimp and gritts. We learned later if we wanted shrimp in it we had to order it separately. Thats a new one for us, actually disappointing. If it is a cost issue lets put the shrimp in the shrimp dish and charge what it needs to be. The salads were good. When we return we will definitely order something else.

Another super-cute restuarant in Mentone, AL. Tomato pie is a must, and it's pet friendly! Very whimsical and quirkly little place with great food!

I've wanted to visit this place for a while now and finally got the chance while in our way home from Chattanooga. They did not disappoint! The food and atmosphere were perfect! I even snagged a cute pair of earrings. Can't wait to stop in again.

We took a short getaway trip to Mentone and everyone raved about The Wildflower Cafe. So I made advance reservations. We loved the eclectic atmosphere and really enjoyed that there was live music. The food was okay. But not as great as all the hype. We ordered the “kettle cooked potato chips with ranch” as our appetizer. My husband jokingly said “it’s probably just Lays potato chips” and I said “no, they pride themselves on farm-to-table, fresh ingredients.” I was expecting warm, salty, homemade chips. Y’all. It was literally Lays potato chips with ranch in pre-portioned containers. I looked at my husband and said, this is what you eat when there’s nothing in the house to eat. I ordered the tomato pie entree and he ordered the shrimp and grits dinner. I did enjoy my entree. I was so happy with the chicken and sautéed veggies. The tomato pie was good too, but the crust was a bit soggy. My husband says that the shrimp and grits were good, but not great. We had great service. The young man who took care of us made sure our sweet tea never ran low, replenished our ice without us asking, checked on us several times to make sure that we were satisfied. He was great. Overall, yes, we’d go back because options are limited in the area, but I wouldn’t say it was my favorite meal of our weekend.

Super cozy eclectic fun restaurant. Great date spot. My first visit and we dined at dinner. All dishes were fresh made, we'll seasoned and ample portions. Service was attentive but not bothersome. Great dining experience.
