    Our server was awesome! We sat at a two person booth near the bar area. I think her name was Marisa. Love this restaurant! The owners are wonderful too!

    Great to see the former spot we all know and loved have a sweet second act! The Wayward is a welcomed addition to our little speck of the world we call Sayville. The staff is outstanding, friendly, and make you feel like family. The food is the bonus. Weekly specials and an added Sunday Brunch make this a weekly stop for my family and I. See you soon!

    We haven't been here since they first opened. At that time, their menu was very limited for obvious reasons. Since then, the expansion has been great and everything we tried from drinks to appetizers to entrees was fantastic. It was a wonderful night - definitely going back!
