Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Forest Hills

We have been coming to the Wilcox for years and I have always thought it could be everything it is marketed as but was falling far short. Mathew Sayer who now is General Manager was always working hard to do his best for the guests. We came this year again and I brought my son and his family (5 grandkids). When I entered the hotel I could tell things had changed. Too many details to list in this review. Suffice it to say the Willcox is transformed into the Southern gem of hospitality and ambience one would expect. Great job Matt and team.

We always have a phenomenal time when we go to Frog. Last night we went to celebrate our elopement and the crew went all out. We were treated like family and had a splendid time. We look forward to coming back each time, because they make us feel so welcome and special. 🥰💜🌈 the food is always top tier.

Food was great. My salad with steak added was perfect, and large! Waitress Amanda and bar staff super. Drinks were fantastic. “Hands up” was delicious. I’d be back for that alone. When we arrived for our 7:15 reservation we were told it would be 35 min. When asked what the point of a reservation was I was met with “I don’t know I just work here”. I understand if things get backed up or if tables squat a little causing a delay, but that was not the response I was expecting.

We love this place! Great atmosphere and food! Service is always slow so if you are in a rush this is not the place for you. Food, drinks and just overall sense of vibe makes the wait worth it IMO. Btw- one of the best places for wings in the area, both on regular nights and brunch!

The restaurant experience was wonderful. We were the only people there for most of the time. It was if the place closed down for us, 😀. The service was great. They were extremely pleasant and attentive. The food and drinks was flavorful and yes, delicious. We will return. We went at 1 for lunch. Will try dinner next time and check out the night life there.
