Used to love going there, but that's not the case anymore. Sick of the excuses when food takes forever. Pretty annoying to see tables get their food before tables who ordered before the others were even in the building. Not just one or two people, but at least 3 tables of 3-4 people, got theirs first even though they weren't even in the building when my order was taken. Server didn't even bother checking on us after getting apps and the kid's meal (glad I at least got the kids meal with the apps that took well over 30 minutes to get to the table so at least the toddler got to eat) even though I never got my meal, which was the special, just asked for 3 items to not be put on the wrap, but apparently that was the worst mistake to make because I was told, AFTER I got up and asked for my bill 3 times so I could just pay and leave, that the cook made the wrap with the 3 items I asked to remove from how it typically is, and that's what was taking so long, then the owner's excuse was they had an 8 top... the 8 top had their order taken before I had arrived, they received their food about 5-10 minutes after I ordered, so their ticket shouldn't really have delayed my order THAT much. When I told the owner that I'd been sitting there for over an hour and people who got there after me had their whole meals already and I just wanted my bill so I could just go, she couldn't have cared less as she rolled her eyes and walked away. I didn't even care if I paid for the wrap that I never got at that point, I just wanted to pay and leave, but apparently they were "too busy" to take my money and let me go, instead, I had to stand there with a crabby toddler for another 5 minutes waiting for them to bring me a bill and then they tell me they removed the wrap, as if that's going to fix the situation, I finally get change and got to leave without my meal. I didn't get to take leftover apps since the server avoided me after bringing them, but I guess since they decided to remove the wrap, it's supposed to fix everything.
Some people never change, they just have all sorts of excuses and that shows in the replies from the owner on other poor reviews. The excuse of "we were busy" is invalid after seeing the owner stand at a table talking with them for about 5-10 minutes. The 8 top was already gone by the time she blamed them for it taking so long and if they were making my food take forever, then how were other tables getting their food? If the cook couldn't handle all the tickets, maybe get some help in the kitchen or train more, or since the owner was there, go help with meals instead of standing at a table talking, I'm sure the owners would know how to cook their menu. Simple solutions to their excuses. Tried giving them the benefit of the doubt until the owner had to be rude about it and the server never even bothered checking the table again. Don't waste your time making up more excuses and blocking people from social media, just own up to the fact that the problem was on employees, not customers for once .

Decided to take my mother out on a date here to cheer her up and we couldn’t have had a better experience!
It’s not always easy to find restaurants that are so accommodating as this one. I have two kids, a toddler and an infant and they helped make the experience so seamless.
The staff were all incredibly welcoming and lighthearted, making us feel right at home from the second we walked in the door even though we were running late for our reservation. Our server was also incredibly attentive to our specific needs, making sure we were doing well often and made sure not to bring my toddler’s sundae before he was far enough into his meal even though it was getting late for the restaurant. They even helped us take some pictures to remember the day and had such wonderful attitudes towards my kids.
The food was delicious as always! I ordered the Alfredo with chicken and it was perfectly portioned and creamy. Thinking about the chicken still makes my mouth water! It was perfectly seasoned and moist. The sweet raspberry tea was also surprisingly yummy and didn’t taste watered down at all. My son had the grilled cheese which he had fun tearing into tiny pieces and counting meticulously. The sundae he got even came with whipped cream and sprinkles which he was very excited about!
Overall, Wandering Pines has never failed to create a welcoming environment and a great dining experience. Will definitely come back again!
