First time in a speakeasy. The experience was a superb secret door with a secret code. The door opens, and you enter. Cute place. Service was spot on and knowledgeable. Very attentive and super friendly. Drinks were awesome ?

FINALLY! A quiet, classy bar in Plano that does NOT allow children and most of the adults were dressed nice. (Notice I'm not saying "super cool" or "awesome"? I have a vocabulary.) Usually we must go south of Northwest Hwy for this type experience. Bar staff dressed nice, well versed in their craft and excellent service. Only complaint: The door staff and owners son need to grow up. Cargo pants, tennis shoes and a backwards baseball cap belong at a sports bar - not a classy bar serving Macallan on a branded rock and French 75's with dried fruit. Buy some suits and evening dresses! Enforce a dress code! Men in long sleeves and collars, no sports shoes, no hats. (Sad this must be explained in Dallas; other cities understand etiquette.) Women usually know how to dress. No large groups - 4 max. You'll double the bar drop in 4-6 months. The place would do better standalone without the restaurant. Definitely returning but 50/50 on spilling into the restaurant. It SUCKED moving from a quiet bar paradise of classy patrons, to a brightly lit, obnoxiously loud kindergarten.

TERRIBLE service. The service was so slow, no smiles or thank yous at all. I wanted to get up and leave it was so poor. It was like we were an inconvenience to the waitress. My drink came with a strawberry covered in white mold. Super overpriced for service provided and quality of product. Also smells of fish since it backs up to kitchen/fish restaurant. Save your money... you can get better service at a Chili's bar.

It's wild that this super cool bar is tucked away in a seafood restaurant in Plano. It's tiny & you'll probably need to wait for a seat, but the drinks are worth it. Our night went from stopping in for one drink to three drinks each. The selection is great & there's not any typical trash well liquors to be seen. The service is very good & the drinks are perfectly mixed. The only knock we have is that some food that we wanted was sold out. That's a bummer, especially since we stopped in around 7:30 PM. It's also quite loud due to some seriously high ceilings. Other than the last few small beefs, we will definitely be stopping in again.

We truly enjoyed spending New Year's Eve at this cozy little speakeasy! We love Sea Breeze, so to have The Wilfred to go to right after our dinner was a real treat!

I love these little pocket restaurant/bars. So cool and intimate. Just a different vibe all together. Unfortunately this one did not live up to the hype. I ordered the Smoked Old Fashion.. Our server i guess somehow forgot and bought just a regular one. Then realized it and instead of making the drink I ordered she put in some box with some smoke in the box as if magic would mix it in the glass. ??. I just shuck my head. I was terribly disappointed cuz it only went down hill from there. We got our food one at a time and at least 20 min apart. Then when the food arrived it was cold. I ordered the Lobster Rice dish and the was Extremely underwhelming. Reminded me of the college broke days of just grabbing stuff out of the refrigerator and putting it in a pan. Only thing missing was the hot sauce.. my date ordered the salmon dish over hash browns. Lol!! That, i can't even begin to describe how terrible it was. I think that came right out the fridge. There were no apologies for the food and drinks only excuses. Soooooo disappointed ? ? ? ?..Pass on this one..

We ate next door but the food looks great! The atmosphere was really fun and we were very impressed with the whisky prices. We were able to try a new whisky that we've been having trouble finding. Service was very good.

First I love that it’s named after the dog and really like the giant pic of Wilfred. We stopped in for some drinks before dinner at Sea Breeze. I would definitely come back to try some of the food. Our drinks were good and service friendly and quick. Thanks for opening such a cool place in Plano.

Great drinks. Our waitress Mia was amazing and her service was impeccable. The speakeasy definitely had a 1900s style tone to it which felt right at home with the whole theme of speakeasies. As a tribute to Wilfred, the owner's dog, this speakeasy does him justice with the drinks and atmosphere to match.

Know the code ahead of time to get in. Dial it and the door will open to a relaxing and inviting space. The bar is well appointed and the bartenders quite knowledgeable.The truffle fries are a nice snack. Be kind and buy a snack for the back!
