It was my 23rd birthday and my first time at Wilma’s Carousel Bar. I absolutely loved it! I didn’t get the name of our waitress but she was so sweet and very attentive. There was also a live band who sounded amazing. The food and drinks were delish. Overall, my experience was great and you should definitely go!
