About The Wayside Restaurant

The Wayside Restaurant offers excellent, delicious food in a cozy atmosphere. Located a bit out of the way, it’s worth the trip for lovely, perfectly cooked dishes. The friendly owners and staff provide great service, making guests feel welcome. The unique atmosphere in an old style house adds to the experience, along with a recently redone bar. Fresh food from local suppliers and passionate owners make this a must-try eatery. Visitors often find the meals so good that they come back for seconds, praising the salmon with crab and horseradish sauce, salmon Wellington stuffed with spinach, crab cake, and seafood bake. The restaurant also serves garden salads with fantastic dressings, filet mignon au poivre, and a carrot cake that many find irresistible. The smoked Old Fashioned is highly recommended for drinks. Although the place can get loud and the room may feel cold at times, the overall experience remains warm and enjoyable. Some items like pasta sauce and dressing are sold but not used, but that doesn't take away from the delicious food and friendly atmosphere. Customers have expressed that all the food is amazing, making it a perfect spot for special occasions, like birthdays, where guests can enjoy unforgettable meals and even personalized service. The restaurant has become a favorite for celebrating milestones, with visitors praising the excellent service and friendly environment that make every visit special.

We had a great dinner with visiting family. Our table of 8 was excellently served good drinks and appetizers very timely allowing great time for conversation. The main course was excellent and even though we were full we ordered delicious desserts. Personally my Sea Bass was perfectly prepared and delicious. And the sauce on the water chestnuts delicious, so much better than the traditional bbq sauce.

Celebrated my husband 70Th Birthday there September 25, 2025.
