The Wilkes Brentwood is a cozy local gem that has quickly gained popularity since its recent opening. The restaurant features a classic, understated vibe with a warm and comfortable atmosphere, appealing to locals. The staff is described as genuinely lovely and knowledgeable, providing attentive service, although some reviews noted a rushed feeling that didn’t match the upscale setting.
The menu includes comforting dishes such as chicken schnitzel, flat iron steak, and short rib ragu, which received mixed reviews. While the chicken schnitzel and flat iron steak were praised for being cooked perfectly, some diners felt the flavors lacked depth and seasoning. The molasses bread served with salted date butter was noted to be overwhelmingly sweet, leading to a preference for regular butter. The bone marrow and ahi crudo were highlights for many, especially when paired with bacon marmalade or sourdough.
The bar scene is lively, and cocktails are considered outstanding. However, there were complaints about slow service and communication regarding gratuity. Overall, The Wilkes is recommended for its inviting atmosphere and comforting food, but diners are advised to make reservations in advance and manage expectations about flavor and service consistency.
