About the restaurant

We serve food that, more often than not, accesses that part of our deepest soul where genuine expression can flow forth. We have always tried to give our food and service our best selves, as honest and vulnerable as we can muster. We strive to be a place where you might actually have a real connection; maybe with your server, maybe with your food or maybe with your possibly gracious host who is ACTUALLY glad you’re there.

Oh, you wanted a restaurant description? Sorry. Can’t really help you there. We’re not so big on labels. Our food is hard to nail down as we are constantly evolving and entirely seasonal and personal. We’ve used “Food you eat” as a tag line on occasion and that remains accurate. We could also describe it as “Food we really want you to eat”. When you’re here, tell us what you would call it.

Never disappoints. Took four friends from out of town. We all tried different foods. But the radish cake has always the best thing on the menu.

Excellent dishes and service. I ordered the lamb shank, and it was absolutely fall-off-the-bone fantastic. I’ve been to Presidio Kebab several times, and it keeps getting better. Excellent quality food, plated in food magazine fashion, with flavors that burst in my mouth. My family and I will be going back for New Year’s Day 2025. /s/ Alfonso Faustino

Great neighborhood place with yummy food. Great for vegetarians too. This time, I had the hummus with lamb and pita. My friend had the (quite big) chicken pita sandwich. Always consistently good!

Vegetarian or meat eater, Wildseed is such a special restaurant. High-end vegetarian food that I think can satisfy many a meat lover. The space is beautiful. The dishes are so delicious. I had something called neatball masala and it was so flavorful, filling, and reasonably priced. My friend loved her impossible burger. The staff is very nice, but they seem understaffed and just a little too busy to pay close attention to each table. This is not the fault of the staff who are working so hard, but the restaurant could hire a few more servers. Even so, I already look forward to my return to Wildseed.

Absolutely the best Indian food we’ve had in the United States. We live here. I’d recommend letting the waiter choose foods as we haven’t heard of several of the offerings that were excellent.
