   We made reservations and still had to wait about 15 mins despite there being serval tables open. Cons- didn’t like the atmosphere, lemon drop wasn’t the best, greens were disgusting, & waited 30 mins + for my macaroni after my food arrived. Pros - tips & catfish were really good!! Will I be back? Probably not.

   Everything was great, they had the Bears game on ever TV! I’m an Eagles fan and I came to watch that game. I asked and they turn two TVs on for me to watch the game!

   Lex was our waiter, the service was top notch. The food was quick, fresh, and exceedingly good. The souls rolls are an absolute must try. We were visiting from Florida and NC for my sister’s birthday. We will definitely be back just so we can visit Wilma’s again

   Our reservation was at 9pm kitchen closes at 10pm a they were out of rib tips. The chicken was amazing and the sides was pretty good. They only had one server and she did her best juggling multiple people. I will give it another try.

   We came in when it was not busy (3 customers max), and the service and food took 55 minutes to get to our table. The waitress only checked on us once at the end of the meal to hand us our bill. Also, should consider having all condiments available to service the meal (cocktail sauce for the jumbo shrimp)

   It was off to a bad start when we were seated and our waiter took forever to come to the table so we end up going to the bar and a lady named Angie end up helping us out she was very nice and took good care of us ! We only had one problem with our food. Our soul rolls was still cold in the middle, but they took them back and gave us fresh ones. The food is really good and they give you a good amount for the price. The drinks was really good as well.

    Q, our server, definitely made our dining experience a comfortable one. He was very chill and informal, but personable and well informed. For the environment, this was perfect. Food was great. Tips were tender, beans were seasoned, hot link was hot. No complaints from anyone in my party of 5 (to include my 2 old year who tore those wings up!) The wait was more than expected, but to be fair, we were walk-ins that didn’t even think to make a reservation. We will definitely return.
