If you were wondering where Wildman's Cafe went to after leaving their Ski Run Marina location, you're in luck....we found them in their new home!
Rami and Patricia Suda Merrikh have opened Wildman's 50's Drive-In at the Y in South Lake Tahoe. While not the coffee house as before, they prepare a wide variety of food on their menu.
We stopped in to see what was up in the mid-century circa establishment. Rami was at the grill and Patricia was taking care of the front counter.
Their new menu includes traditional drive in food like burgers and fries but they have added a popular pita selection with gyros, falafel and chicken kabob. Soft serve ice cream cones, freezes, floats, smoothies and a wide selection of coffees are also on the menu.
Wildman's is on their summer schedule and open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday.
Every Wednesday night is a 50's Cruise and Car show starting at 5 p.m.
