Came in and was seated. Didn't see a waitress for 10 mn put our order in for drinks. We watched the bartender pour them and they sat on the bar for 10mn b4 I walked up and got them myself. There were only 3 or 4 other couples so it wasn't busy. Not how it it should be. Probably won't be back. Decided to finish our drinks and decided not to order food. Paid and left

The atmosphere puts Wellman's over the top - the food and service are good, but meeting a group on the rooftop bar is such a great experience that Wellman's deserves 5 stars!

We were seated outside and asked what they had for craft beer. The waitress said you can only get craft beer inside; and outside, she could only serve domestics like Bud, Miller, etc. I've never heard of a restaurant that only serves part of their menu depending on where you sit. The main bar inside was only about 30 feet away. We left and went to Blue Shark Ale House that we thoroughly enjoyed. We didn't like the loud music and TVs. The menu looked basic, yet relatively high prices. We were never greeted by the hostess, only asked "how many". We mentioned why we were leaving to the hostess, and she just said "ok". Based on other reviews that agree, we made the right choice. I don't see any responses from the owner, and based on review feedback it seems this is just a cash cow for the owners, who don't actually value training staff and giving a great customer experience.

Every time we dine here, someone’s meal ends up being improperly cooked. We visited on a Sunday to watch football, and they only had two servers working. Our server mentioned that several staff members had called in again. The food quality and service have been inconsistent, which has made our dining experience less enjoyable than we had hoped.

Stellar Experience for Our Corporate 2024 Summer Social at Wellman’s Rooftop
I recently had the pleasure of hosting our company’s summer social at Wellman’s Rooftop, and I can’t praise the experience enough! From start to finish, the customer support was truly exceptional.
Annie was incredibly responsive and worked closely with me throughout the planning process. She listened to our needs and provided valuable suggestions that made the event seamless. The professionalism and attention to detail from the entire staff really stood out.
Now, let’s talk about the food! The menu catered to a variety of dietary preferences, and everything served was delicious—our guests raved about the options available!
On the day of the event, it was clear that Wellman’s Rooftop takes pride in their service. They ensured everything was set up perfectly, allowing us to focus on enjoying the festivities rather than worrying about logistics. The staff was attentive yet unobtrusive, making sure our guests had everything they needed.
Overall, I highly recommend Wellman’s Rooftop for any corporate event. Their exceptional customer support, delightful food, and flawless execution made our summer social a memorable success. We will definitely be returning for future events!
