Ranked from the ratings we track · nobody has written it up yet
Wayward Fare is an Italian place in Prospect Heights, and it's #14 of the 64 we track in town. We also file it under Mediterranean. Reviewers keep coming back to the espresso, oysters and gnocchi. What people bring up: the cocktails get a mention. It takes reservations, has outdoor seating and does delivery and takeout. That score is built on 164 ratings. It's rated like a top-quarter place but reaches a fraction of the audience its peers do. Expect $$$ ($30–60 a head) prices.
Rated in the top quarter, but only 164 people have found it — about a third of what a typical italian place near here gets.
