What people say, in short
Many people recommend Wild Mountain Cafe as a brunch spot, and one regular calls it their go-to. Another diner praises the vibes and food, and a different diner calls it amazing and likes its Benedict served on potato pancakes. Two visitors say it sits in an old, converted house, which one finds appealing and another suggests could suit a date. The diner who calls it amazing also notes it is already hard to get into.
