Fresh food, generous portions, unusual cocktails, and reasonable prices. Best of all, their offerings are creative and outside the box. Helpful staff and a warm and comfortable environment. Absolutely tops in all areas.

This place is unbelievable and their cafe next door is great too. Absolute a bad mood killer to visit!

The people working at the Wild are seemingly the happiest service workers I have ever met and the turnover seems minimal. Every single person is so warm, welcoming, knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the menu items. They all seem to genuinely care about and enjoy the guests and each other, including the leadership. Perfect eye contact, presence, never overbearing. Just the perfect service cadence. The vibe they all create together has immediate impact and makes the guests feel part of it.

Presentation on any plate or drink, day or night is exceptional and extremely elevated for the price point, especially. The flavors are divine. Food comes out fast and hot every 👏🏻 single 👏🏻 time 👏🏻. Not to mention absolutely everything on the menu is gluten free???😭

Someone is always cleaning something and the space is beautiful and cozy inside & out. They have a little grassy park area in back where you can just read with a coffee if you want which I love. They clearly take so much pride in what they do every step of the way.

As a person who lived in the city for a decade and has worked in f&b for 20 years, I think it is remarkable for an all day cafe & restaurant to be operating at this level anywhere. Bravo to all, I will be a forever customer.

Nice discovery on a trip to Beacon. Delicate & seasonal flavors for a special experience & modest serving size.

This place was expensive, did not have enough options on the menu, the food did not taste good, except the bread which was an additional cost. I would not recommend this place. There is a lot of local spots in beacon that is better and cheaper. This restaurant is clearly not a native local place to beacon and hyped because of the aesthetic. I was really excited but highly disappointed.

Our cocktails & food were amazing! The bartender was superb. Well done! This is what Beacon needs. Can’t wait to come back. We ended our meal with the spicy chocolate crème brûlée, oh my yum!

I would first like to say that I am a very devoted customer and have had nothing but amazing experiences here with the exception of this past Friday, and it was a little disappointing. It was my first time coming for dinner and was very exited- a reservation was made for a specific time, we arrived promptly and checked in, was told it would be about 10 mins while the previous party paid and so they could clean the table. To make a long story short, we ended up waiting an additional 30 minutes before they sat us, even though we had a reservation. The food was incredible and our waiter was extremely sweet and kind. But no form of apology or compensation was given even though we waited 30 minutes for a table that was supposedly reserved for us. As I said, I’ve always enjoyed coming here and was excited to bring my guests here, but we all left a little disappointed with how our reservation was handled.

Cool vibe when you walk in. Dining spills out the back past an energetic bar, thru large open windows onto the sidewalk. Probably contributed to the good noise level. Friendly but not overattentive staff willing to return multiple times as we chatted & absorbed the dinner options. Very veggie oriented, sourced partially from own farm. Delicious creative limited menu. We had 6 great items. Great looking plates. Brilliant tasting. Short wine list with a couple of really good by the glass options. So rare & considerate of we who LOVE wine but can't do a whole bottle. There are other dining options on Main St but none of this caliber. A real jewel. (I think Coffee & Kitchen next door is related & I loved the coffee & gluten-free pastries they make)

Great space, and it's both spacious and also intimate and not too loud inside. The food was delicious! Unfortunately, it took over forty minutes to arrive, and our server didn't check in on us once in that time, and we tried to flag him down but couldn't. It was like they totally forgot about us.

What a lovely experience we had last week! We were visiting Beacon to see family, and stopped in for a cocktail and some grub. The food was incredible. We sat at the bar and was served by Laura, who was so charming and made us feel right at home. And she makes a mean cocktail! It was gorgeous to look at as well. I ordered a gin cocktail that was exquisite. I need the recipe! The ambiance was comfortable and classy, on par with any of our top joints we frequent in NYC. We will return!

Wow!! What a fabulous upbeat open air restaurant. The bowls are delicious the blue & olive with chicken was a burst of fresh flavor. The hot matcha tea latte was great.

​My dining experience was disappointing. I ordered the blue and olive bowl, but found the quinoa to be quite bitter, and the sauce served with the tofu wasn't to my liking. While the hummus was tasty, the accompanying crackers were very dry. On a positive note, the decor is modern and hip with great outdoor seating, and the staff was friendly. Overall, I wouldn't recommend it.

I’ve now gotten to experience both dinner and lunch at Wild and both experiences were phenomenal. The food, the drinks, the service, and overall experience are top notch!

I stopped at this restaurant on my way up to Highland from the city, and it was so good that I came back on Sunday for a healthy birthday brunch—after a beautiful yoga class at Alchemy, the studio upstairs owned by the same team. The Low & Slow Bowl was perfection, and the mushroom cacao espresso with coconut cream was a dreamy, liquid dessert in a glass. Such a beautifully decorated place to chill with friends. Bravo! Thanks for the beautiful birthday brunch. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Excellent cocktails and excellent vibes (a really gorgeous space!)… the food has room for improvement, but they are aimed in the right direction.

Want to love this place and almost do. But as a vegetarian friendly restaurant, I’d love to see a more substantial main dinner dish that includes vegan protein (tofu, tempeh, lentils etc). The vegetarian main dish is lacking in both protein and flavor. It’s honestly a boring main dish I’d see at any typical restaurant in town. Hope they’ll fix this and it will be one of our main spots.
