Best WLM Reviews

Stay away from here! We waited for almost 40 minutes for our food to be served. Here comes my salmon rice ($36). White leftover cold rice, taste like just taking out from refrig, when the menu said it is pilaf rice. Then the server asked me if I wanted mash potatoes, which was served cold as well. My partner ordered medium steak ($42) and was served a well-done steak that tasted like a rock. The entire time the server didn’t apologize to us at all, and the plate she served even had rice came off the plate as shown in the first picture. Awful experience! Will not come again. A dinner of $78 in total should have been done better than this quality of food, poor presentation and service. What a nightmare in our special trip to Cape Cod!
Excellent place to eat breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner. It was fantastic meeting Santa Claus and Mrs Claus. Good french toast, bacon and fresh fruit salad.
The food here was great, and atmosphere was special as well for a fun night in the cape. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful and everything was delicious. Would come back for sure
Some of the best calamari I’ve ever had! Per our waitress’s suggestion, got the fried chicken sandwich as well as the lobster roll. The lobster roll was okay, but the fried chicken sandwich was amazing! The fries were also cooked extremely well. Definitely recommend sitting inside on a hot day, it was great to get out of the heat and the food came out quick, despite the crowds. A little expensive, but to be expected in downtown Chatham.
The service was wonderful — above and beyond to make us feel welcome and accommodated even though we arrived close(ish) to closing time on a Sunday night. Our server was Gigi and she was excellent.
The atmosphere was also lovely — and what drew us to dine at the Wild Goose to begin with. Sitting on the wide, historic porch overlooking the street, it set a really special mood.
The food had some highlights and some others that were blah at best. The Brussels sprouts were delicious, crispy and well seasoned and satisfying. The mussels were also delicious—the broth was rich and flavorful—but the portion of mussels was smaller than average (though it is an appetizer).
The crab cakes were lack luster, underwhelming, and seemed mostly like breading. The calamari was nothing special.
Overall come for the service and the atmosphere and keep your expectations moderate for the food and you will leave happy!
This restaurant has an upbeat vibe and was a super fun spot for our Sunday brunch/lunch. The hostess set the tone with her smiling face and pleasant disposition. It was a gorgeous day so we opted to sit outside in front of the restaurant. What great people watching. Like most places in Chatham, it was a relaxed environment. Our server, Stanko, was helpful with making decisions for our beverages and entrees. I had a cucumber-mint infused vodka drink (so refreshing!) and a Caesar salad with seared scallops. Both were delicious! My husband had a chicken breast sandwich with melted Brie, over arugula and a cranberry spread served on toasted cranberry bread. I can’t wait to replicate that at home! Everything was fresh and hot when served. I highly recommend this great spot!
The guy bartender was very nice and welcoming. He sat us right away as soon as he saw us. The food was excellent. Will definitely come back again.
We enjoyed our meal at Wild Goose, the drinks made by the bartender were very good. The atmosphere is pretty good here and that makes up a big part of the experience, the food was solid but I wanted a little more flair, some sauce or seasonings with some of the components, a whole head of broccoli steamed in a plate was a little plain. The Crabby Salmon was very good, they nailed the main proteins. I just couldn't help feel like I had just eaten at a 200 seat wedding. I'm coming back for a dirty martini though.
