I live walking distance from this restaurant and have dined here twice. The first time was just after they opened. I was underwhelmed. The food and service was fair, but I attributed this to being a new restaurant. Last Saturday, my wife and I were celebrating our anniversary. We initially were planning on having a quiet night at home, but at the last minute my wife suggested we walk to Wistaria and give it another try. We called to make a reservation and our table was ready when we arrived. We didnt tell the restaurant we were celebrating a special occasion because we wanted to be low key. The place was full and it was quite some time before our server arrived. She seemed rushed and not overly friendly. After taking our drink orders, she said she would bring bread to our table if there was any left. When the server returned with our drinks we were told they were out of bread. While waiting for our meals another party was seated at a table nearby and their server brought them bread. When another server filled our water glasses, we inquired about the bread and a few moments later he returned with bread. When our server returned to our table she noticed the bread but said nothing. Our food was just okay. Not bad, but not great either. We have really wanted to like this place but for for the price, well choose to dine elsewhere for better tasting food and service thats aimed to please.

This place was once great, but over the last several months it has slowly been declining, sadly. They have not changed the menu in over a year and rarely change up the specials. Tonight we called and there are no specials at all (Thursday evening). I wish theyd step it back up because the staff is great and the setting is super too. Still making great cocktails though! Cmon Wistaria!! Dont make the same mistake that the previous restaurant, Lozanos, did by stagnating and becoming boring.

I love this rerstaurant. I like sitting outside in the open air along the sidewalk looking at downtown Sierra Madre. I love the Gin Gimlet martini, the burrata and heirloom tomato salad, and the beef-braised short ribs are the bomb! They have great hamburgers and the pan roasted trout almondine is delicious. A true find in an out of the way place. Four stars because the service is poor. The wait staff are a bit high and mighty.

Food is fabulous. Service is fabulous. The only reason its getting four stars and not five is because they need to offer more vegetarian and vegan options! There are a ton of us out here and we want to spend money in your establishment.

Been there twice and loved it both times. Great salmon, good drink selection, upbeat atmosphere. Becoming the go-to spot for my wife and I after having relocated to this area. Highly recommended.

Quaint place in cool area. Food was pretty good with good service. Would come back to the area and would want to try again along with other restaurants in the area.

This is one of my favorite places to eat. The short ribs are my favorite and the mac and cheese is delicious. Great wine and good atmosphere.

Quality dinner here. But I tend to come for breakfast (only served on weekends). The lemon and some-such pancakes are dee-licious.

Great service and a fantastic burger. The juicy meat and swiss and blue cheese make it decadent.
