Best WLM Reviews
My buddy and I picked this place because it was next door to Prudential Center. The place was packed, and there was a wait to be seated.
Our host and server were fantastic. As busy as they were, they were pleasant and fast.
I ordered a Margherita Pizza. It looked burnt but wasn't. It was a well tasting charred pie. More sauce than cheese is always a plus for me.
I would love to come here when it's not so busy.
FYI- what we didn't notice was that the establishment adds a 20% gratuity to the bill. We missed this, and our server was double tipped.

Stopped in because we were early for Prudential Center event and someone in our party wanted a drink.
We sat at the bar and ordered drinks and Calamari.
Calamari were good, crispy outside and tender inside. The marinara was good, wished we had more lol
Service was good, our bartender had a smile and very accommodating.
I you want pasta primavera soup this is your place, I never ate pasta primavera in a soup broth.....if you like that than this is your place.....if you like your drink bought out to you with lipstick on it then this is your place......if you like the music so loud that you can't have a conversation at your small table than this is your place. The only thing this place has going for it is the location, other than that next time I'll pack a cooler and eat in my car.
Went the day of the Korn concert. Wasn't given an itemized bill just handed the receipt with my credit card, the tip was already included so I get a total and then another line that says additional tip for a party of three that wasn't drinking it was confusing to see why they added the gratuity already but it was very suspicious. I asked the other waiter because my waitress walked away and he was like oh I don't know I'm not sure it looks like it I guess, then I waited for my waitress to finally come back asked her she was all not sure either hold on and then she figured it out it said yeah it looks like a tip was already included. Definitely not a cool move to include the tip and not tell people and then double dip on it. Food wasn't bad, ambience wasn't bad, but to try to get the tourists I guess that's the goal.
If I could give 0 stars, I would. Please avoid this place at all costs. Go next door to Redd’s and save your money. I went here prior to a concert and we were seated next door. Placed our drinks and food order, asked for water.
Our drinks came 42 minutes after we placed the order. We were fully done eating by then! The owner came over even prior to us getting drinks and said he would “buy us shots”. We said no thank you. We just want our drinks; since we were already done eating. He brought them anyway. Then- he charged 3 dollars for a dirty martini (they said it’s extra olive juice ????). Charged us for double rounds of bottled water and brought a drink we didn’t ask for to the table. Once the bill came, we said that first round that came literally almost an hour after we arrived shouldn’t be on the bill. The owner Frank- argued, said they were busy (we get it but do the right thing?), and proceeded to be incredibly rude. It wasn’t worth the argument. He even said we should be happy we were going to a concert?? Tables as we left apologized and were appalled and the poor server looked mortified at her boss. Please, avoid at all costs. Save yourself from this horrible experience. I never write reviews and just couldn’t believe how customers were treated.
Went there after Iron maiden concert...
Expensive for the quality
Waiter would not split the bill even when asked.
Did not bring water
Plus pre added 20% gratuity and 3% for credit card payment.
After having issues paying at the table, the waiter did the invoice at the bar and brought back the bill saying I could add extra tip.
Would not go there again, I felt riped off.

Heading to the Janet Jackson concert last week, with a couple of friends and discovered this great spot. Decided to drop in for a drink and a small bite. Great atmosphere and the Service was great as well. My bartender, Sara was welcoming, warm and quite skilled. She made me the best old-fashioned I've had in a long time. Believe me, I've had my share of bad ones. It went well with the pizza. Great vibe in this very chill atmosphere.
The chocolate cake was bangingly delicious, I enjoyed the chipotle chicken sandwich that was tantalizing for my tastes. The sprite was smooth, silky and popping in my throat.
