Firstly, no hate on the food, it was great. I got the fish and chips and it came out hot, crisp, and had good flavor. The coleslaw was finely shredded, which was a pleasant surprise, and dressed in the regular mayo sauce. The tartar sauce was the only thing mediocre seeing as it wasn't that tangy or acidic, it was pickley, which I like pickles, but I want my tartar sauce not that pickley. Now, as for why I only give it two stars. I came in with a group of 12 for lunch at about 1. I know this can be a bit overwhelming, but I don't think they had properly trained for scenarios like this. We talked to a waitress/host and she had said that they are doing tables in sections, which we were like, "We understand and would be ok if you had to split us into two tables," but I just don't think she knew what to do. So, she asked her manager, I presume, and they ended up putting tables together to accommodate us, and turned it into a teaching moment saying, "Anyone can do this" in reference to putting available tables together to seat a large group such as ours. After we were seated and had gotten our menus we put our drink orders in, which came out within a fair amount of minutes. We put in our food orders about 5 minutes later. Nothing too customized, just normal cheese, no cheese, sub regular fries for sweet potato. She took our order and never came back to our table until the food came out. This was a good 50+ minutes. I understand food for a large group can have a long wait time, but part of the service industry is giving updates and refreshing drinks. Other tables had came and went during the time we were there, it was quite bothersome. We had someone go up and ask about our food since we were all hungry and a bit ticked off. Soon after that we got what we ordered. Well, mostly at least. One person had ordered the portobello sandwich and that comes with sweet potato fries according to the menu. They came with regular for her plate. Not that she complained, the regular turned out more crispy than the sweet potato. It would have been nice to know in advance that they would have to sub it if they had ran out of sweet potato fries however. We asked for refills and once we got them she brought ketchup, asked if we needed anything else, and left us alone again. Our server along with seeming new, also had a tired/I don't like my job vibe the whole time. At the end of our meal, we got the check with 18% gratuity already set as the tip since we had a large group. The food was good, but I don't think we'll be back for our next big family trip up here. It seemed like they did best with smaller groups 2-4. Just make note if you're coming up here with a large party. read more

We landed in Davis on a Sunday. Looking through Yelp most restaurants are closed until Wednesday so we settled' on Wicked. What a find. Our server, Trinity, was new to this establishment so being the old navy guy I am I couldn't make it completely easy on her. After several menu questions, including some that sent her to the kitchen for answers I got the shrimp and sausage grits - simple amazing with just the right amount of cheese. Lori got the chicken pot pie which was equally amazing. As part of the experiment I ordered an old fashioned. This is a difficult drink to make well (and most do not) , the bartender hit it out of the park. The experience is a large open dining room in a bar but the noise is nonexistent even though the place was doing a decent business. The food here is top notch and Trinity is a real trooper! read more

We went here after going to the burrito place across the street and finding out it's a 50 minute wait. We sat down and 10 minutes later ordered. We got our food probably an hour later and it was horrible. The breadstick came and was hard as rock. Got charged for sauce we didn't ask for. Food was gross. Our waiter was very nice, but fire the chef. Said they accepted Apple Pay but we tried multiple times and it didn't work. read more

Appreciated Heather's prompt and courteous service at the bar. I had waited at another restaurant down the street for 25 minutes without any service so came here instead. Good service. Good burger and fries. Next time I'll just come straight here! read more

My family of four (me, wife, two kids ages 15 and 17) visited Wicked Wilderness for dinner. What a great experience and dinner! Our server was Heather and she did a wonderful job all around! Attentive, personable, and friendly! I ordered the Flank Steak cooked Medium and it was one of the best, moistest, and most flavorful steak I have ever eaten! Heather delivered the steak to the table with A1 sauce. If someone were to use A1 on this steak, they need to thrown out of the establishment!!! They simply should not provide A1 as it would be an insult to the chef to use on such a flavorful piece of meat! My wife ordered the Chicken Potpie, my kids got the burger and charbroiled chicken sandwich. Not a bite left on anyone's plate. Ambiance was family friendly and decor was of a hunting lodge. Would totally return again!!!! read more

Probably one of the worst restaurant experiences I've ever had. Took 15 minutes to get my beer (table that ordered 10 minutes after us got their beer first), waitress had horrible attitude from the get-go, food was cold, I could go on for a while read more

The service was incredible! My table was helped by Tori and she was welcoming and helped us learn about local hikes and attractions. Tori was knowledgeable and made our dinner memorable! The steak tasted like coal but the service made up for the meal. Thank you Tori! read more

Wicked was one of the best dining experiences we had in Davis. It was nice they allowed us to bring our small dog inside during the winter months. The food was decent. The drinks list was extensive but I would have liked to see more options on the menu. read more

The crab bombs were fantastic and the rest of the food was really good, too. A couple of great craft beer selections on tap made it an overall great experience. read more

Food was good we started with a crab balls. From there we had boom boom shrimp tacos. Their beer selection was pretty basic but once you are done eating there are a few local places to stop and enjoy local beers. read more

Downloaded the Yelp app specifically for this review. Crappy beer, bad food, and absolutely awful ownership/service. Do not eat here. Go to one of the other nearby establishments. If you want to operate in a tourist town, you would think inclusion would be important. Well not here. read more

We're passing through and ate lunch here on a Saturday afternoon. We were seated immediately in a booth. They were not busy. The entire restaurant has a very comfortable feel to it. Relaxed and informal. Our server took out drink order and then our food order immediately. We had the pulled pork sandwich with fries and cole slaw and the noodles with peanut sauce. It is called a salad on the menu. It is served hot. Both were delicious. Portions are generous and the prices are more than reasonable. Service was fast, friendly and efficient and they checked on us several times. Diet cokes could use more bubbles but not a deal breaker. We enjoyed our meal very much and will be back. read more

I'm torn writing this review. Wicked Wilderness is one of handful of finer dining spots in this small town of Davis and they present themselves outwardly that way. The decor / ambience is pretty decent. They also have live music playing on Saturday nights. However, our experience last night was a huge miss in at least a couple different aspects. For starters: the service. No one seated or even acknowledged us and the other guests waiting for maybe a good 10-15 minutes, even though they had at least three waitresses. Took so long that one couple behind us eventually left and another seated themselves at the bar. However, eventually an older lady let us know she'd get to seating us soon, and she was a really sweet waitress once she had the bandwidth to serve us. The other issue was the food. I ordered the white pizza flatbread and the entire thing was flavorless. The mushrooms came out of a can - yuck! - and the asparagus may have as well - it was too soft and flavorless for me to tell. My partner ordered the pot pie but said the chicken was a bit odd and very limited in quantity, and said it was like eating chowder with the biscuit. However, the desserts helped redeem the experience - the brownie with ice cream was nice and gooey and my pumpkin cheesecake was home made and decent. Finally, another redeeming factor was the price was really cheap. So 2.5 star for food, 3.7 star for service, 4.5 star for ambience, and maybe 4 star for price. Overall, maybe a 3.6 star experience. read more

Heather and Savannah were amazing! The food was superb and custom made to order. They even opened a new bag of ice for us. Get pulled pork on top of your burger. Delicious! read more

The food here was great. The service excellent as well. The server we had was very helpful and had an answer for every question we had. This is a great place to eat if you are in the area. read more

Enjoyed the food, beverages, music and atmosphere. Strip Steak was tender and juicy, and the homemade Trout Dip is really good. 8-10 wines by the glass and many brews on tap. Wait staff was pleasant, informative and responsive. read more

Things are a little weird in the age of COVID, some places not able to open at all, some that have made good adjustments, and some that are trying but maybe not quite being as good as they might usually be. It's a little extra hard for restaurants in smaller towns where it seems to be harder to get all your employees back to work. We were at Wicked Wilderness on a holiday weekend, so I am sure that this put some extra pressure on them. Overall it was a good experience: the food was OK, the menu seemed a little limited, but the server was very pleasant and helpful. We were appreciative that this establishment stayed open later than several of the other restaurants in the area who had shortened hours in the age of COVID. It's hard to end your day "early" when the weather is nice, the sun is still up, and you are having fun with family. read more

Amazing food & service. The environment was really nice & family friendly. Everything my family got was fantastic. We will definitely be back. read more

This place was awesome! The food was really good, but our waitress Cindy was the BEST! Super friendly place and loved the atmosphere. Will be going back to visit again. read more

Food very good those that were able cleaned their plates totally. Waitress very nice and took care of us well. I have to throw the BS flag on the guy regarding the chicken pot pie. Mine good nice chicken chunks. We will be back. Note: it's a diner style restaurant. read more

Great service and food. The crab bombs were delicious and the grilled shrimp too. The ranch was really good. I didn't care for the chicken pot pie but my daughter tasted it and liked it. Some great local ales available and my daughter loved the one she got. Our waitress was awesome!! Prices were good too! read more

Had an enjoyable lunch at this nice establishment. Had the sausage gravy and biscuits....ridiculously scrumptious. The wait staff friendly and attentive. Prices were good and service excellent. This is a definite place to stop and get a bit after hiking Black Water Falls. read more

I wanted to love this place based on the name alone. Unfortunately, the experience was mediocre at best. We were seated quickly and staff was friendly. Ordered the fish dip, as recommended, to start. Good flavor but came in a jar that was hard to get out of. We ordered buffalo chicken Mac and cheese and pulled pork sandwich. Both were just ok flavor but texture of the pork was mushy and the pasta was soupy. The sweet WV fruit wine we chose to go with our meal came warm. As we were told it is "red wine" and once we enlightened the server that sweet fruit wine should be chilled there was no effort made to remedy or offer alternate. Uneventful, we'll call this a one and done. read more

Waitress was really sweet. The lady with long red brown hair needs a new line of work. First - why would you only do one check per table ?? I've worked in restaurants over 20 years. It's not hard. But- we specifically questioned this - as if they were sticking to that we would have simply dined elsewhere. The waitress told us she COULD and would split our check. As she was doing this - the other lady came over and tried to tell us they wouldn't. I made it clear - we asked and now they needed to honor that. PERIOD. Just to be clear we did not let this reflect on our waitress. But you've lost local customers forever. read more

Went here 3 times over this past weekend, it was the only place open in town with good casual food and local beers. Had great social distancing tables and servers were very friendly! I got the fish and chips - the fries were really good too and crispy! Definitely a local spot you need to check out! read more

My husband and I arrived here at 9pm on a Friday evening hoping to catch a bite to eat and a beer prior to settling into our AirBnB. They were one of two places still open at that time of night and they had dine-in available. The food menu was fairly small but had a good variety of food listed. The beer/wine list was also on the smaller side but they had a good selection of local WV beer available. I was thrilled to see they had the Long Point Lager from Bridge Brew Works as that was a brewery we went to during our trip to Fayetteville last year! I was hoping to try the Chicken Pot Pie in a jar but they had just sold out! So disappointing! I ended up with a bowl of Black Bean Chili with addition of chicken. When it arrived (reference picture), the chicken looked like it was a slight after thought, as I thought it may have been mixed in with the chili instead of just laying right on top. There was some good flavors in the chili but I would have hoped for more peppers and onions or diced tomatoes to break up the amount of black beans. Also the chicken was quite dry but was edible when mixed in and allowed to soak for a little in the juices of the chili. I felt the price was a bit steep for what I received. As for the service, we were seated quickly however it took quite awhile for us to be acknowledged after that. After about 15 minutes our food an drink orders were taken and it was another 15-20 minutes until we received the food. The servers were friendly but you could tell it was the end of the night and they were ready for the restaurant to close. The decor? Very wilderness like. We were seated beside the long, fake fireplace with wooden deer on top. There was a mural on one wall behind the stage, huge stuffed animals filling the chairs of unused tables and wooden trim throughout the building. For our purposes, this place was just fine. Nothing fancy, locally sourced, and open late. read more

Checked this place out on our last night in WV Mountain country. Right in the center of Davis and parked in front. Greeted as we entered and proceeded to the bar where we prefer to eat. Bartender was friendly and loquacious. Ordered a couple of lagers. For a starter we got the Ruben fried egg roll. Unusual but delicious. We chatted up the Owner who was sitting at the bar and learned that he had only been open a year. The bar was an interesting and beautiful copper inlay which he bought and had installed. We then got the chicken pot pie. A unique offering. Quite delicious but not a traditional style. We shared and my portion was great - it ended almost like a soup. The biscuit was wonderful. A nice stop on our exploration of the mountain region. We suggest a look see if you are in the area. We recommend a visit to Davis when in the area. A funky and pleasant Main St., with lots of folks strolling about. We were there on a Thursday around 8pm in July. Mark & Nancy. read more

I've eaten here before and it was good. The blonde lady tending bar the other day should find a new line of work. Absolutely hateful. The lady that was the hostess was very sweet but the bartender's attitude and the fact that nobody came to ask if we wanted anything caused me to go elsewhere. It's a real shame because the other 4-6 times I've eaten in here have been pretty good experiences. read more

Service and food was excellent. Cindy took care of us and was the sweetest! Had the trout dip and it was terrific, also had the chicken pot pie. It was so tasty and had a large bisquit in the middle instead of a traditional pie crust. Left full and very happy! read more

After a long day of photography, I wanted some place good to eat. So I asked a few locals and everybody told me this is the "best place in town". I arrived at 6pm, and being a single, I told the hostess I'd sit at the bar. Well the bar was full so asked for a table. 30 min later, I was seated. It took about 10 min before my server showed up, and she didn't even introduce herself to me, just asked "are you ready to order?". I was, so I asked for a glass of water, and the Fish and Chips, off she went. No comment made. She brought me my water about 10 mins later. I sat and watched the entertainment, while waiting for my food. 40 minutes later, my food was brought out. All my server said was "I'm sorry for the wait". Not once in that 40 minutes did she check on me to see if I needed anything, nor was I offered anything to hold me over until my meal was served. I had to flag down the hostess to get some napkins and ketchup. When I was done with my meal, it was the hostess that asked if I was done or wanted anything else and brought me my check. I would have love to have dessert, but considering how long it took to get my food, I didn't feel like waiting another 30 minutes. As I was leaving, I saw my server sitting out back, smoking and playing on her phone. I can say the hostess was the best thing about this restaurant, but even she can't make it nice enough to want to go back to give them another shot. If this is the best Davis has, I'll drive to the next town over and give them a shot. read more

Service was abysmal, food was mediocre at best and came out cold. I"ve got more charisma in my left toe than the waitress who served us. Finally the "host" is no older than 11 years old. read more

Slow Friday night in Davis - only a couple of other couples but the bar area was busy. Had chicken pot pie and it was great. Big fluffy biscuit "pie" on top of a great creamy chicken vegetable "pot". Most excellent. My wife had salad and black bean soup, which she loved too. Waitress was great. Attentive but not over bearing! Full bar plus Local beers and others on tap. Good variety. This has to be the best place for dinner and a beer in Davis. read more

The dining options in Davis are limited if you want to get beyond sandwiches or pizza. This place seems to have a real menu and I was happy with my order but it's clearly not a great dining experience. Friendly. Yes. Delivered as ordered. Yes. Exceptional. No. I had the soup of the day (potato cheese with broccoli) and a caesar salad with a side of beer. Good. Memorable? No. No dessert. One beer. $20 including tip. I'll be back. Friendliness really does count. read more

I'm giving this a (1) star because of the terrible food, but also because they add (steal) a service fee on the check and the service wasn't good. First off, the chicken pot pie has Sysco corp. chicken out of a can as the main ingredient (not real chicken), the meal was cold and think this was because not enough servers and the service fee rubbed me the wrong way as it's on the bottom of the check and I'm sure a money maker for them. I really felt like the food was gross or TERRIBLE food, didn't like the service fee and the service was bad. So MANY other good places to go to in Davis and Thomas and a wasted dinner for us. read more

The pepperoni rolls were awesome! And that's the ONLY reason I didn't give it a negative review. But when you are going out to eat the thing that counts the most is the food. It wasn't to busy & food didn't take to long to get to our table. Order an appetizer & the steak. It was terrible and to be honest, tasted like they cooked up OLD nasty steak they were trying to get rid of & pass off to unfamiliar faces. They are only opened Thursday- Sunday. We went on a Thursday . Would not go back.! Still have that yuck taste in my mouth & all three A-1 sauce in the world will not drown it out. read more
