Wences Bistro

In such a small town there is very limited restaurants but really no need for any other restaurants once I discovered Wences! You name it and I’ll almost guarantee they’ll have it on the menu. And they also have nightly specials which are always great. Every time I’ve eaten in and ordered out (they deliver) yummy delicious variety of all kinds of food! I highly recommend it for any kind of food especially the comfort foods that we love so much. You got to try it it’s definitely worth it.

We have eaten here before. The food is decent… nothing to write home about, but one of the few places in the area that «delivers». The service and manners of the people that run this place, however, is atrocious. They claim to deliver, but don’t believe it! I placed an order for delivery with confidence, as they had delivered to my address before. I was given a delivery window of 45 minutes. After an hour, I am starting to wonder where they are. At this time, I received a phone call that informed me that they were too busy to deliver, and they would not be bringing us our order. This to me was the epitome of rudeness, however, it was not the first time they have been incredibly rude and unprofessional. I have on occasion visited the restaurant, and every time it has been a disaster. They do not appreciate their customers and consistently treat them poorly. I will never go back after this final time.

How many stars do I give for sitting here watching a retired but still stunningly beautiful movie star eat lunch?
Mr. Picky ordered the homemade shrimp and lobster ravioli. Mr. Picky has that name for a reason, but he loved his entrée. I stole a bite off his plate and wished I’d ordered the same thing because it was fantastic!
Unfortunately, I ordered the chicken Marsala and took the waiter’s suggestion to order it with the fettuccine Alfredo. My side salad had homemade Balsamic vinaigrette which was pretty tasty. While his plate had been a total hit, mine was a bit of a miss. The fettuccine Alfredo didn’t have a lot of flavor. In fact I think I might have preferred the garlic bread which had enough greasiness for a yum factor but seemed to be missing the garlic. Despite eating little of the food on my plate, they still charged me for it. Mr. Picky felt really bad that I wasn’t enjoying my dish and so he saved me some and then pushed the plate in my direction. What a darling person.
Service and food were a little slow when we went for this late lunch. For example, after waiting about 45 minutes we had only seen our glasses of water and side salads. When Mr. Picky started grumbling, I reminded him we weren’t in a hurry and I didn’t mind waiting if it meant we’d get some great food out of the kitchen. Well that was a Yes and a No as it turned out.
Wanting to end on a great note, for dessert we ordered and shared the homemade Tiramisu. While I refuse to enter the argument on how Tiramisu should be made, let me just say that I liked their version. Nice combination of lightness with a rich flavor, and sufficient moistness on the bottom. That was a definite winner.
So what’s the final verdict? Is it a «3» or a «4»? I think it’s a «3.5» but will go with a «4». We had a very nice waiter, which helps, but there would have been no question if they’d taken the Marsala charge off our bill as a sign of good customer service.

I am new to the area so I thought I would stop in for lunch. The waiter, Caesar, was very nice and polite. I also met Wence the owner. Both welcomed me and were very friendly. I ordered the fish and chips and it was very tasty. The batter was light and the fish was good. The won tons that they bring before the meal were good as well and the orange sauce/​sweet and sour was very orange. I would highly recommend this place.

Delicious! We were pleasantly surprised by this quaint little restaurant. Highly recommend.
