My wife and I had one of the best meals at the Wheelhouse! The atmosphere was perfect, the staff was welcoming, prompt, and enjoyable, and the food was amazing! You can see and taste every bit of effort and creativity that the chefs and bar tenders put into every bite of food and drink! This is definitely our new favorite place to eat!

Incredible restaurant! Very good with accommodating gluten and dairy. One of the waitresses even remembered my dietary restrictions nearly a month after my first visit.

UNREAL. From the mushroom butter washed cocktail to the lil sausage thingy to the kimchi pakora to the Japanese curry to the smoked old fashioned. Woooahh. Tracy is the best bartender ever!

This was truly a wonderful expirence! My partner and I came here for an anniversary, and the staff made us feel special. The food was absolutely delicious! We loved the vibe and all the staff were very sweet! I will say, as politely as I can, I did not enjoy the cocktails. My partner and I both agreed they were overpriced and disappointing. That is really my one and only caution. Otherwise great experience! Cant wait to return!

Oh my gotto!! Came in for a solo date with moi-self after not having stopped by since the relocation. I’m glad I peeped their menu online first to see if any changes were made & won’t lie, I was shook. Literally thought I was being redirected to a scam site & even called the restaurant to confirm, “Is this the same Wheelhouse that used to be a truck, but was also in a hotel, and maybe has now relocated but with a different menu?” Yes, all in one breath. What a change this place has made in such short timing! Upon arrival, the atmosphere was intimate, open & inviting. I was greeted/seated right away & had a general idea of what I thought I wanted to try. I ordered the Dragon Berry Mule Mocktail, Summer Salad & Carne Asada. Right off the bat, I was given a welcome plate of their chips & salsa. Their salsa was very fresh & the crunch from their chips were a great snack to munch on with my mocktail, which was a perfect concoction for my taste buds. When the summer salad came out, I KNEWWWW I was in for a treat. The trifecta of flavors that comes from the joining of the cucumber, watermelon & mint mixed together in that chili pepper dressing. I could eat that salad as a meal alone, but I needed to save room. The Carne Asada… Holy FREAKING airball. Y’all are sleeping for real if you’re not already in your car & on your way to eat here right now. You are clearly not reading the words being written in this review. Talk about cooked to perfection, bursting with flavors & honestly who in the heck came up with corn hash?? Don’t be scared of the jeow som if you’re more daring when it comes to heat. I highly recommend dipping a slice of the meat, potatoes, & a whole pepper with every bite if you want some kick. I went in with no expectations with their new menu, but was dancing in my seat by how good everything was. Definitely hit the spot for me & I’m excited to come back to try other dishes… but next time, I’ll bring my friends so we can try the shareable plates. The revamp might be a whole new vibe & design to a classic oldie, but this place is still a solid goodie in the 417 area. Chefs kiss to the boys in the kitchen! Please keep up the awesome work. Customer service was top tier per usual, so thank you for continuing to feed my soul. My belly appreciates it!

My wife and I went here on a date night recently and the new-look menu and restaurant were amazing. We split the pork belly fried rice and both enjoyed it even more than the original fried rice from the food truck days. Highly recommend!!

We called to place an order and an employee lied and said they were closed over the phone. My husband I were a block away so decided to go check, and they were completely open. Really weird behavior.

Tried Wheelhouse for our anniversary dinner last night. Food, atmosphere and service were all terrific. We had made a reservation so our table was ready on time and prepared with a special vase of flowers and a card to welcome us. They pay attention to the details which made for a unique and memorable experience. We highly recommend and we will be going back!
