The Wheel focuses on American cuisine brimming with locally sourced ingredients in an industrial chic, waterfront setting.

Drawing on fresh ingredients from over 40 local farmers, fishermen and purveyors, the restaurant features the best of what’s in season with an ever-changing menu plus produce grown and harvested right from The Village’s rooftop garden. At the center of its open kitchen lies a hearth oven used to roast meats, fish and vegetables, as well as to bake Neapolitan-style pizzas.

    It’s my favorite restaurant in the area. Reminds me of the NYC vibe. Service is excellent, food is excellent, drink specials are excellent. The price is like NYC.

    Food is delicious. The banana loaf is to die for. Great ambience right off the river. Can’t wait to dine there in the summer.

    The tuna tartare, banana bread/butter, chicken sandwich and brunch pizza were all very good. Not bad: beet salad and shrimp and grits.

    The service was outstanding from the minute we entered the restaurant. The ambiance was very nice with a warm personal atmosphere. The food was well cooked and well served, but with a standard take on things. A nice reliable dining experience.
