Wildflower is one of our favorite restaurants, and is often a great spot for a family gathering or an anniversary dinner. The food is upscale Alberta-steakhouse and there's something on the menu to please everyone. The brioche loaf they serve you at the beginning of your meal is worth the visit alone.
