I'm sorry, but after reading reviews here and other places, I was excited to take my date here for a romantic dinner later at night (9PM). Nothing could be further from the truth. The physical location wasn't promising and the valet parking is really the only option, which is a problem when you return for your car as the valets typically have several groups of people at once to manage between only two guys. Moreover, this is possible the least romantic place I've ever been that was billed anywhere as a romantic restaurant. Our table for 2, like every other similar table, was sandwiched between other tables with not even a foot of space between other diners in the noisy, crowded restaurant. I could not bring myself to ignore being so crammed in as if in a cafeteria--I've had much more pivacy in a crowded McDonalds. No one even asked for my coat until after I was sitting. I thought perhaps after some time it might quiet down as it was, even for a weekend, pretty late, but that did not happen. The saving grace for Wisteria is the food--it's fantastic and probably saved our evening. The wine list is in fact extensive and thoughtfully populated. Our food come in a timely fashion for the number of people in the restaurant and was great, naturally. The desserts were more than just an afterthought for the menu, which I appreciated. The price range is really better than even I expected, as well. Unfortunately, for this price range, and given what Wisteria bills itself as, I will not be back, and if you're looking for a romantic or a business location for dinner, I'd really recommend skipping it too. Just too cramped and noisy and in this city you can do a lot better.
Pros: Food
Cons: Location, noise, falsely advertised aspects
