When I'm in Westerville I try to stop in at Wendell's Pub. Great service and always super clean bathrooms. I think they won an award a few years ago for the cleanest bathrooms if I'm not mistaken. I love their Fish n Chips. Hearty portion size, crunchy on the outside, fluffy on the inside and I think they put crack in the tarter sauce because wow it's good!
Tucked behind a strip shared with Mejers, Wendell's doesn't jump out at you. We went there on a Saturday when most restaurants were packed. We found ample free parking including several handicapped spaces. The rather narrow door made navigating my electric wheelchair difficult. Once inside we found a relaxed atmosphere with no wait for table. Our server was professional and friendly. The food took a while to get to our table, but it was outstanding. My salad great and the house dressing outstanding. My meatloaf was huge and the mashed potatoes were creamy. All the others at our table enjoyed their meals. With just a little quicker service, Wendell's could be elite. Nice experience.
The owners and wait staff opened the restaurant up specifically to host a reception/wake for one of their long-time regular patrons. This was on a Monday - a day the restaurant is normally closed! Kudos to them for their care and compassion for a grieving spouse with limited options. The food provided was very good as well as the service. I would highly recommend this place based solely on their values, but can honestly say I would eat there again based on the food!
Dinner entrees were overpriced, and the portions were small. We waited more than a half hour for our appetizer, which was lukewarm. When the entrees came fifteen minutes later, the waiter said our order was lost. My potatoes were ice ice cold, and the chicken breast was very small. I never got a the salad, and when I asked for it, they brought something made of wilted greens that was warm; I felt it had been sitting around for a while. My friend's meal was fine: I chose not to re-order, since it took 45 minutes to get the first meal. The waiter was apologetic, and said they were short handed. I'll never go back there.
All you can eat Fish is my favorite!! Great place with great people!
Sandwich was done incorrectly even when told when she brought it to the table it was correct. The skinny fries were pretty cold and the replacement plate w the correctled Pub Club was still not good. For a Saturday afternoon visit we were pretty disappointed. I will try them another time but will not be ordering the Pub Club or skinny fries.
My French dip sandwich was not good, the meat was old. I also ordered a chocolate cake, tasted old and was cold from out the refrigerator.
I had the good fortune to be invited to Wendell's Pub for a lunch meeting. It was my first time but will not be my last! Great sevice and I ordered the Meat Loaf sliders, they were fantastic!! If the rest of their menu comes close to the Meat Loaf I'm in!!Dave from Heath
Walked in at 7:23 PM, sat at the bar with 2 bartenders working. A couple who walked in after I did and sat next to me were greeted, had their orders taken, menus delivered, and got their drinks. At 7:33, I walked out, never having heard a word from anyone.
Best prime rib in town, great service and friendly staff makes dining an experience not just a meal, plenty of variety on the menu for everyone, even the kids, I love this place and brag about it to everyone!
