We came back here for my birthday dinner and I was quite pleased with it…read more I started with the Lobster Bisque, it was rich and had a lot of lobster in it...very nice!! Hubby just enjoyed the bread service, he couldn't get enough of it...LOL! We both had Filet Mignon...both medium...I added a Bordelaise sauce, which took mine over the top. We split the Brussel Sprouts side...it had tart cherries, bacon and a maple glaze...lovely!! Now, here's why it's a 4 instead of a 5--for dessert, I was so looking forward to their Bananas Foster (it's my favorite), but they no longer have it! NOOOOO!! I was obviously disappointed, but chose to have their Chocolate Cake. The cake was way too dense, but the ganache was decadent and so good. I ended up just scraping the ganache off...hey, it was my birthday!!!!! We'll still come back, the service is always nice and their steaks are delicious!! I'll keep my fingers crossed that somehow they'll put the Bananas Foster back on their menu.

The taxidermy, rich materials, and striking design give it an incredible, moody atmosphere that stands completely apart from the standard downtown lunch spot.  The staff was professional, attentive, and kept everything running smoothly. The food was spot-on, and starting the meal, I had the wild core pasta, and my friends. Turkey club looked massive, with their bread service and truffle butter is an absolute must-do recommendation. Great spot if you want an elevated midday meal in a truly unique setting.

As it is located in downtown, parking is abysmal, but there is cheap/paid curbside parking all around if you can find a close spot. The food made in their scratch kitchen speaks for itself. The first time I visted we sat at the bar and were cared for by Dominique. We absolutely love her!!! I wanted a sweet, fruity cocktail for which she recommended the raspberry baray (raspberry infused vodka, bianco vermouth, crème de flora, passionfruit cava, pineapple, lemon, tonka bean). We also got an order of the truffled manchego fries with lemon aioli to share. It was so crispy and flavorful! Last but not least, I ordered the 16oz Ribeye served with whipped parmesan potatoes, roasted baby carrots. WOW! The steak's texture and flavor was out of this world. Dominique told us it's dry-aged!! Truly artisan crafts happening in the scratch kitchen. HIGHLY recommend Wren & Wolf to all Phoenix foodies and traveling foodies, as they offer a quality experience (food, service, ambiance) truly justified by the price point. P.S. after our first visit here, we went back the next day for the exact same foods!

This will be my favorite…read morereview to ever write and although my photos don't let this dining experience shine, let me tell you, it was a SHINNING EXPERIENCE!! I checked us in for our reservation and the hostess welcomed us in, then promptly took us to the table that had been beautifully prepared for our dining experience. She asked if the lighting was too dim, but it was perfect. Every staff member was dressed neatly and welcomed us as we walked by. No staff members were running around frantically, and I could tell they are staffed amazingly well. So organized and kind, genuinely smiling at us. I could tell that anyone would be willing to help us, if we needed them! Our waiter, Daniel, came over and again, welcomed us. He let us know the specials of the night and how dinner will be served. Let us know not to touch the 500 degree plates when they arrived. He took out drink orders and answered any question we had. He promptly came back with drinks and fresh, hot rolls!! Daniel took our dinner orders. We all sat and visited while waiting, enjoying our drinks and the hot rolls. Dinner was served on, as promised, hot plates!! Then, they served each of us the crème brûlée corn. All of us that ordered meat, asked for medium rare and we were not disappointed!! Our meats were spot on!!! Perfection!!! The petite filet mignon were very juicy and delicious, as was the New York strip. The Crispy Hasselback Potatoes were so good, especially with the topping. The Crispy Shrimp Deviled Eggs were so good!!! I feel like our meals were simple yet divine!! After we enjoyed dinner, we were served the Ultimate Warm Vanilla Caramel Cake, on the house!! What a nice touch!! So yummy and it felt guilty eating such a fabulous dessert!! We all shared it! All in all, I wish I could give 10/10 stars!! Such a wonderful dinner experience!! I can't wait to go back!!!!

As usual, we checked-in, and we were quickly given a table. Our waitress was very friendly and made sure we were given drinks and warm buns while we decided on our order. I ordered the 16oz Ft Worth Ribeye with a loaded baked potato and a cup of chili. My fiancée ordered a 6oz prime rib with French fries. The food came out relatively quick - I'd say about 15 minutes. Everything tasted great! My steak was cooked as ordered (medium) and my sides were delicious. We also ordered an additional basket of buns and butter (they're just so good!). We had a good time.

The service was unmatched. From the Valet parking to the front desk. Also, our server was the absolute best! I felt like there wasn't anything he wouldn't do for us. He was very happy and upbeat. I think his name was J. He is a big part of the reason the visit was so special. The food was mostly excellent. I got a petite filet and lobster tail with Caesar salad and fried brussel sprouts. I do love them crunchy and they were. The salad barely had any dressing. It would have been better with a little more. My fault for not asking. Now the steak; my whole reason for the trip. Honestly, a little disappointing. The cut was beautifully tender. That why I love a good filet. Unfortunately, there was very little caramelization on the outside. I would have enjoyed more. Also, there didn't seem to be very much seasoning. I like it a little more on the salty side, but I am sure others don't. I'm sure I could request it next time. Last, the lobster tails made up for any possible shortcomings in anything else. It is rare, that I have one as perfect as these were. Absolute heaven! Sure, I'll be back. I know exactly how to order my perfect meal now. Stellar job folks!

Trying to book my mom's 50th birthday party was a nightmare. Emails went unanswered, phone calls weren't returned, and I ultimately had to drive there in person just to get the event booked. After finally securing the date, I waited for a follow-up regarding the details, only to discover that the general manager had been let go. I was given the new GM's name and phone number, but despite multiple calls and text messages, I was completely ghosted. This left me scrambling to find another venue with only one month before an important family celebration. No customer should be left hanging like that after booking an event. This was actually my second chance giving Lola's another opportunity because I genuinely like the vibe of the place. The first time, my group of only six people was still enjoying drinks when staff told us we had to leave at 11:00 p.m. because there wasn't enough business to justify staying open. That experience was disappointing, but I decided to give them another shot anyway. Sadly, after this experience, I won't be returning. Great atmosphere means very little when communication, professionalism, and customer service are consistently lacking.
