Never heard of it and never ate there before but a definite return. The food was fantastic. Located in the strip mall I didn’t have high expectations, but we were all beyond impressed. A nice little hometown diner type high-end restaurant. Great variety of entrées great specials.

My parents came from out of town and wanted to take my kids and me out and we alll loved our food. We have been many times but the menu changed a bit so we got to try some new food and it was fantastic. Highly recommend. Food is always good and service is always good as well. Unique menu items like Korean meatloaf

My steak was over-cooked. The chef came out to our table. He he was contentious, bllamed the wait staff. Clearly he was underskilled and very unprofessional. And the steak was only mediocre, in flavor, at best. Disappointing experience to say the least.

I don't know what took us so long to get here. We should have been here years ago. Our meal was special. We loved the tiger shrimp. The service was great. Everything about Baker & Wife was fabulous.
