Wilma's Patio Restaurant

Good food and ambience. Attentive to our needs during our breakfast We recommend Wilma'sIt is a family style

this place has cute diner vibes. the decor is almost like cabin and beach combined. the service was nice, there were different waiters for drinks, food, and payment, which was different.we got the seasonal pumpkin pancakes- can't go wrong with that! the eggs benedict are larger than i imagined and have lots of hollandaise sauce! my friend got the breakfast quesadilla which looked unique, id like to try that next time. the bacon was nice and crispy, and i was able to order the hashbrowns extra crispy.parking was a bit hard and the restroom line was long, so just prepare for that and you'll have a great time!

Recommend making reservations if you're going during a peak period like the holidays. Luckily they can fit some bigger groups due to the multiple dining rooms. Parking can be tricky, but there are a lot of small streets you can park on.Restrooms are small, so be prepared to wait.Menu offers quite a few things. I like the variety of items and the portions are good.

This is a great place to stop on Balboa Island for a bite to eat. Breakfast is served all day. The indoor dining is retro with a big wooden bar and wood beam ceilings. Outside dining looks like a cafe. The portions are big and filling. They have a full drink menu. I had an avocado BLT with a side of coleslaw. The coleslaw was really good, crunchy not soggy with red cabbage and shredded carrots. The BLT was chocked full of yumminess. The bacon was really good. Service was excellent. The decaf coffee hit the spot on a cool day and tasted like real coffee.

Our go-to breakfast and lunch spot when we're looking for a well cooked meal, good variety, great service, and a fun environment. The kids French toast combo is my favorite, and my dad defaults to the classic eggs Benedict. It's definitely worth a stop if you happen to be on the island or even just in the area!

I love coastal themed places and Wilma's Patio was absolutely darling! Cozy, with holiday ambience, and the theme of the sea all around, I couldn't ask for a better setting for dinner before Christmas lights! The scramble was sooo good, but even better was the cornbread, served with honey and butter. Please visit this place!

This is a great spot to please a group of people. Some had breakfast and some had lunch. The portions are generous and the food is good quality. It's a cute neighborhood place and I love the front patio. Our server was very attentive handled any request immediately. I always appreciate that!I look forward to coming back when I sm in the area.

Wilma's Patio Restaurant is one of several eateries on Marine Ave. at Balboa Island. It's a fifteen-minute walk away from the Balboa Island Ferry landing. During late evenings, you might find it more comfortable to drive to Balboa Island to avoid having to walk back to the peninsula on a chilly evening. This restaurant serves food at the pricier side, but I'd rate it as a solid place to eat at. The service and ambience both were good and without any problem. We each ordered the fish & chips ($24) and one crock of French onion soup ($12). The fish & chips unfortunately tasted on the blander side, but the tartar sauce tasted delicious such that it made the dish more pleasant to eat. I also liked the portion size of the fish along with the texture of the chips. I'd recommend asking for more tartar sauce and putting salt on the chips if needed. With its tasty and stretchy cheese and many onions, the French onion soup tasted delicious and satisfied my craving for it. Overall, the food tasted good, but I wish the fish & chips impressed me more.
