I found a review online that mentioned the Ribeye steak was worth a shot! Steak in a cafe didn't seem like the natural option but none of the other items on the menu impressed me much so I decided to go for it! What's the worst that could happen? $27 wasted and a sad face. Boy! Was I glad I decided to take the path less travelled! The Ribeye steak was delicious (I had it medium done)! Unfortunately, the same cannot be said about their burgers! My friend asked the cashier, "what's good here?"She

My friend asked the cashier, "what's good here?"
She replied, "up to you lor"
Unsatisfied with the answer I chimed in, "but what would you recommend?"
She asked, "the burger"
He decided to go with her recommendation but we weren't impressed. The meat was subpar. It tasted kinda chewy and over marinated... kinda like cheap sausage meat grounded into a patty? Either she has poor taste or she gave him really bad information.
Coffee-wise, I really didn't think that they were as good as Nylon etc. Passable but it wasn't impressive.
Service was also rather slow that day. My steak came out on time but my friends' food didn't.
Ambiance-wise, Wheeler is unbeatable! A beautiful hipster cafe! I love the concept and the deco. Not so much the location and the parking. There's barely enough lots to fit 5% of the customers. They only have 4 lots out front. All 4 were taken when we arrived. Plus, the remote location (an industrial like area) didn't really help because it wasn't very accessible via public transportation so I wished they had more parking space!
