That's a lot of money for just lettuce, tomato, cucumber, chicken, and some dressing. One was to go and one was sit down. What really offended me as well was I am a tourist and was dealing with hardship at a hotel. I was staying at this can happen to anyone. I was under a lot of stress and the first night the owner was so sweet, kind and compassionate really a breath of fresh air. Maybe she was just trying to impress the customers that were inside with how wonderful she was. When it came in the second night, she acted as if she didn't even know who I was adding more rudeness and stress to my already stressed out trip. Anyone can get stuck staying at a ratty motel and not knowing. This can happen to anyone. If you have a bipolar personality where you are super nice one day and cold and distant the next day customers do not like that and they feel it too. When I left to go use the restroom after I had paid my bill and hadn't even finished tipping, I saw her gossiping to the man folding napkins. I knew they were talking about me. You would think she would have some compassion and being a repeat customer twice on my trip. I then said, have a good night and put some money on the table less than I normally would because being treated disrespectfully for no reason is just not cool. Either just don't talk to people or be genuinely friendly. It's easy. Aside from that it's a cute restaurant, but the food is nothing special and if you like paying $30 for a salad, then you do you. I think their only claim to fame is that they have Turkish tea, which is a little exotic to Americans, but isn't a big deal if you were abroad in Europe.

I am a die-hard Wilda fan! I have had the great pleasure of trying everything on the menu, and I can tell you- not one disappointment. This place is small, but packs a huge flavor whallop! Best bang for your buck in the whole County! I have personally become addicted to the homemade and freshest tasting fallafel anywhere! A treat for this non-vegetarian is the vegetarian fallafel. A large slice of naan bread with yummy warm fallafel, topped with thinly sliced cabbage,tomato, onion, cucumber and a cilantro dressing that makes your mouth sing! Add a lemonade and the total package is still under 7 bucks! Wow! And let's not forget the hotdogs! Try the Roasted Garllic Dog! OMGosh-in a homemade bun-ya gotta be kiddin me! I would eat here veryday if my wife and my waistline would allow! Dayna and Bret are the best! They and their staff know how to treat their customers...you won't be disappointed! O yea- and try n buy the Famous Wilda's Mustard- you will be hooked! read more

My friend Walter and I go here after bowling if we're hungry. I usually spark one up in the car while Walter gets in line, and when my appetite is sufficiently enhanced, I join him. I always get the Buddha Bowl, and Walter gets a chili dog. The Buddha Bowl is righteous, man. None of the ingredients are anything special in and of themselves, but together, it's all there: Sweetness, sourness, saltiness, bitterness, and umami. Chewy, crunchy, spicy, warm, cool, filling. Walter won't get the Buddha Bowl because he says the name is demeaning to the religion of the Viet Cong, who were a worthy adversary and earned his respect. His loss, man. Parking can be a problem. On the upside, you can fill your gut for about six bucks. Wilda's isn't trying to oppress the workers with sky-high prices, man. It's like the fuckin' banks run every....It's like what Lenin said....you look for the person who will benefit, and, uh, uh, uh.... read more

i love the buddha bowl. its soooooo good. the dressing is so different from anything ive had in the past. i usually get a chicken buddha bowl with no jalepenos bc i cant handle that. i only have ONE complaint and that is the packaging. the buddha bowls come in this tall box (imagine chinese take out box). this is an issue since the buddha bowl has many layers. its hard to mix all of the ingredients together so my first few bites are all cabbage and then only chicken and then only rice and then only beans. food is great but its hard to enjoy bc of the box it comes in. read more

I LOVE Wildas . The Buddah bowl is my favorite. Ordered flipped with extra chicken extra avocado extra dressing NO jalapeños. The hot dogs and the fries are also great !! I have No complaints. I normally call my order in and it's ready in less than 10 minutes . Other wise you wait over 20 min if you order there . The fresh lemonade is outstanding as well. I normally spend about 12.00 on my lunch and the bowl is large enough to share or save the rest for dinner . I eat here at least once a week . Everyone should try it out !! You will love it !! read more

This place might have decent food for lunch, but the owners really need to keep their politics to themselves. In a restaurant the food is just part of the experience. The ambience, price, customer service, and the overall feel have a lot to do with it as well. Your hatred for the President is something you can discuss in the privacy of your home. Your clients to do not need to hear about it, even in Redding, California. Either that or change the name to Wilda's Tea Party Grill, so the rest of us know to stay away. read more

My friend and I were there for lunch today. We got the Buddha bowl and a Falafel sandwich to share. yummy Buddha bowl although a bit too greasy for my taste but not too bad. The falfel was not falafel at all... it was something else... the rest of the sandwich was good after we took out the falafels. The Greek Shack falafels are much much better if you are willing to drive all the way there. read more

For the chicken, you pick your own flavor/spice level. We went with full platter (whole chicken) with half mango lime and half mild. For our 2 sides, we chose corn on the cob and cole slaw. We also added potato wedges. We grabbed our seats after we placed our order at the counter. Our order was ready around 18 minutes. They called our name and we picked up at the pick up window. Full platter comes with 10 pieces. Mild looked pretty plain but it was super spicy, tasted more like hot. Mango lime was nothing I expected. The flavor was alright but wouldn't get again. Very spicy as well. Chicken was a bit dry but overall, tasted ok. Corn on the cob was a bit burnt. Coleslaw was very creamy. Potato wedges was really good. Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside. Service was friendly. They do offer cups for complimentary water, self serve. Seatings indoor and outdoor. Only one neutral gender restroom for customers. They are connected to Sourdough Bread Company. Ample parking in the plaza.
