  Wilma’s has two menus so there are plenty of options. We ordered the jerk tips, small tips and hot links, jerk egg rolls and the soul rolls, our sides were fries, Mac and cabbage and everything we had slapped. I love the food real bad and our server was kind and considerate. We will be back. 😊

  The food was amazing. I actually got 4 other co workers to order from here Friday. Some were not so sure they wanted to order because it was a little pricey for lunch. I picked up all 5 orders. But when I got back with that food not only was it good but portions and quality was on point and believed the food was well worth the $. I even had 1 co workers to call me at home to tell me she was getting ready to eat her left overs and to thank me for the suggestion. Keep it up Wilmas, dont change. We had from, chicken, fish, turkey tips, chicken tips, turkey tips and salad. Everyone enjoyed their order and porton size. We were already planning our next orders before trying to eat what we had already received. I was a hit for my suggestion and Wilmas was of course the star of the show. Some of my co workers are so picky but could not find nothing to pick Wilmas apart. Can't really rate atmosphere because I just picked up at the front so no shade about that part.

  25 min for the appetizers to come out but the table of three that sat down 10 min after us got theirs. Then their food came and then ours came my brisket sandwich was room temperature I mean my fries were hotter than man sandwich SMH. My wife's hot links were the same but her tips were the only thing that was hot. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE FOR DINE IN AT ALL. ITS A DISGRACE TO BE LOCATED DOWNTOWN A TOTAL MISREPRESENTATION OF THE CITY OF CHICAGO! DO NOT DINE HERE THEY CAN NOT HANDLE IT !!!!

  We visited on a busy Sunday. Not too many tables yet the greeter refused to sit us as we were waiting for some of our party (they had 2 little girls so walked slower) To be honest, if we could have left we would have and that would have been a huge miss. Once our server, Jazz, came to our table the experience was transformed. She totally turned the experience around. She was friendly, attentive and so nice. Gave great advice on menu choices and was a superstar. There was a lot of noise from an event around the bar which was jarring as there were loud announcements being made frequently which frightened the little ones so that explains the lower atmosphere rating, plus the ladies toilets were not in good condition. The food was great, we had bbq platter and salmon and it was all sooooo good. The in house bbq sauce was so tasty.
