We had a late dinner reservation here. It wasn't too crowded and staff greeted us upon walking in. The inside isn't too big and we got sat at a two top table. We ordered a round of cocktails to start. I got the Loosen Mai Tai while my dining partner got The Professor. My drink was refreshingly sweet and my friend enjoyed his. For food, we shared the Burrata as our appetizer. It was creamy and everything in it paired so well. For my main, I got the Scallops and my friend got the Pappardelle. These were some of the best scallops ever. The flavor of the whole dish was wonderful and I loved the decadent mint gremolata. My friend's dish had plenty of short rib and was super tasty. Such a lovely place and I can't wait to come back. read more

I really did have a lovely experience here. The food was delicious and the service was fantastic, BUT I do feel like I need to set expectations correctly about the "family style" description. Coming from New York City, when I hear family style I'm picturing big shareable plates for the table to be going back for seconds (maybe even THIRDS). The dishes here were quite small and very pricey, which made it hard for them to function as true family-style portions. That said, the food itself was excellent, very unique and the service was genuinely wonderful. The staff were attentive, warm, and made the whole evening feel really welcoming. I can't say enough about the staff, just SO lovely. So if you go in expecting beautifully prepared small plates rather than true family-style dining, you'll probably have a great time. Just adjust expectations on the portion sizes! read more

How to Cook a Wolf - Italian Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Okay I've been to restaurants where I had an awful experience and I just don't write reviews because I don't want to bring them down, but this one I HAVE to address because it was one "what the hell" to the next. I made a quick reservation online since they don't answer their phones, that's fine, easy. Then I get a phone call letting me know another party has taken my spot inside and that I can sit outside, no thank you it was 80+ degrees. And if I decide to sit inside, I have to leave by 7pm (our reservation was at 530). Fine, whatever. We get to the restaurant for party of 4, it is pretty empty besides the other party who took my original seat. Only 3 of us were there, 4th person didn't show up yet and was stuck in traffic. That's fine, we proceed with ordering appetizers til she gets here. That's the part that irked me the most, we weren't able to order appetizers.... Why??? Nowhere on the menu or website says we can't order appetizers. The server basically said we can only order ONCE. So you're telling me a restaurant can only take one order as a whole? We can't even order more if we didn't order enough food the first time? Okay whatever we wait til my friend gets there and we order all in one go. Appetizers came out quickly, main dish took FOREVER. We didn't get our 3 main dishes til almost 630 and while we are eating, people kept coming to clear our table. Yes I know we have to leave by 7 but can you leave us alone and let us enjoy our meal instead of coming by every 5 mins taking dishes away from us? On top of that, table of 4, 20% service fee, that's whatever too. Food was mediocre, service wasn't the greatest so I won't be recommending this place to anyone. read more

I was pleasantly surprised by just how good this restaurant was. We sat at the bar, and the table had a cool cork surface. To start we had the sea wolf sourdough, kale salad, and burrata. I could probably do without the burrata next time, but the kale salad and sourdough was very good. Then we got the gnocchi and ravioli. I personally enjoyed the ravioli more. The butternut squash added a sweetness to the dish that I really loved. To finish we ordered the affogato and the cannolis. The affogato was smooth, and I appreciated how the cannolis had one side sprinkled with pistachios and the other chocolate chips. The cannoli filling was more tart and lemony than sweet but had good flavor. read more

We went for Seattle Restaurant Week, and it was such a wonderful experience from start to finish! The restaurant had that perfect cozy autumn vibe -- warm lighting, soft music, and a charming Queen Anne street view through the window. Starters: Kale Salad - Fresh and bright, with pistachio and cheese adding great texture. Burrata - So creamy and rich, perfectly paired with citrus and hazelnut for a refreshing twist. Hamachi Crudo - Light, citrusy, with just a hint of heat -- really well balanced. Asparagus - Loved the honey yogurt sauce and crispy shallots; such a creative combo. Mains: Ravioli - Pumpkin-filled and beautifully seasoned; it tasted like fall on a plate. Gnocchi - Crispy outside, soft inside, served with a flavorful beef ragu -- absolutely delicious. Pork Chop - Juicy and tender, with pumpkin purée and roasted apples for the perfect savory-sweet balance. Black Cod - Delicate and buttery, paired with lentils and cauliflower -- rich and satisfying. Dessert: Salted Caramel Gelato & Cannoli - one cold, one crispy -- a perfect ending. The food was outstanding, the service warm and professional, and the atmosphere couldn't be cozier. A fantastic Seattle Restaurant Week spot -- I'd definitely come back again! read more

How to Cook A Wolf sounded like an amazing restaurant a when I was researching restaurants. Our dining experience wasn't what we expected. Starting off on a positive note - the host and server were very friendly and welcoming. We were a bit early for our reservation, but were seated immediately. Kale salad - this was perhaps the star of our meal! The kale was cut perfectly and the salad tasted fresh. There were toasted pistachios and roasted beets, which made the salad delicious. Grade: A+ Fresh Bread ($14). We were a bit taken back at the price for bread, but I get it. There were four slices of bread served with a seasoned butter and a balsamic olive oil roasted garlic spread. The grilled bread was delicious! Grade: A- Steak Tartare. One of my favorite dishes to order, but sorry this was a miss. The dish tasted like minced meat with olive oil and salt. It lacked flavor. The color of the meat was an unappetizing dull pink. Grade: C- Clam Cavatelli Pasta. Sorry but this dish was a miss the pasta was undercooked (beyond Al dente). The pasta was fresh, but hard to eat. There was no flavor in the sauce. Overall not a favorite. I ate about 1/3 of the dish and stopped. Grade: C- Automatic 22% gratuity added for every bill. read more

Came here for Seattle restaurant week to get their $65 3 course dinner meal. It included appetizer entrée and a dessert. I think overall I was OK. I highly enjoyed all the appetizers, especially the tuna Crudo and and the burrata cheese. These are the ones I highly recommend if you're trying to get an appetizer the tuna was fresh, and I liked the refreshing tangy ness. The cheese was fresh and paired well with all the other things. I think the New York steak was also pretty good. It was cooked well but overall, I felt like there wasn't really anything super special about this place. It was just an OK meal. The service here is also a bit slow but great atmosphere, and I like the aesthetics of the restaurant . read more

Yum! We got the Burrata which was amazing. The drinks, apps and entrees were all good. It feels like a fancy place but was surprised at the reasonable prices. The service was great! read more

The food here was very tasty, especially the appetizers. The drinks were also well balanced and unique without being too out there. Our server was super helpful with recommendations and very attentive. We were able to snag a table outside without a res on a Friday but their patio is heated and covered so it was actually quite nice despite the wind. You're pretty secluded in the big booths. It's definitely a pricier meal but I'd definitely come back for a special occasion. read more

The food was good here it wasn't that bad. The only problem is that we kind of had were when we ordered items. The server came back and then let us know that they're out of the items. We waited for our second round of drinks way too long and pretty much finished the meal before getting our second round of drinks. The traffic was pretty loud and it was kind of hard to have a conversation with all the outgoing of the street so maybe next time we would sit inside. The food looked absolutely spectacular and definitely want to try this again, but the service wasn't quite on point for this experience. read more

What a lovely Mother's Day brunch! We chose Burrata and Asparagus for our first courses, and they were delicious! Perfectly cooked asparagus with a tasty sauce and guanciale that we fought over. Then we both had Eggs Benedict with crab, because crab! Big lumps, perfectly poached and drained eggs and just the right amount of hollandaise. Didn't notice any goat cheese but it didn't matter. Roasted potatoes came with it, delicious. Finally Cannoli for dessert! They were perfect and so good. I also really like the cappuccino here, as its true cappuccino, not watered down with a lot of milk. read more

My husband reserved a table for our date night while visiting Seattle. Everything about the experience was exquisite - the service, the ambiance, and the delicious food. I loved seeing the food and cocktails prepared in the open concept kitchen. I also truly enjoyed all of the dishes we had - from the refreshing burrata and panzanela with seasonally fresh and delicious produce, to the bolognese with fresh made pasta. I also loved the cocktail and wine selection to pair with our food. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a delicious meal read more

Such a cool atmosphere, good food, and interesting drinks. This is a great spot to come share stuff with friends. Here's everything we ordered with ratings 1. Sea Wolf Sourdough : 8/10, this came with a honey butter and garlic confit in balsamic and olive oil, so good but could've used some flakey salt 2. Steak Tartare : 6/10, this wasn't bad it was just super salty and wish it came with a different cracker or a crostini or something 3. Bucatini : 7/10, I'm someone who doesn't prefer al dente buttttt this was still tasty just could've used a little bit more flavor in my opinion 4. Affogato : 7.5/10, you can't go wrong with vanilla ice cream/gelato and coffee! Usually not my go to dessert but always good! read more

The restaurant was decorated very nicely, liked the vibe where you could sit at the counter and watch them prepare the dishes, all of the dishes tasted high quality, service was friendly, and honestly the bread they served was the best thing. My friend and I still talk about the sourdough bread as one of the best we've had in Seattle. Would recommend coming here and trying that. Went for Seattle restaurant week but to be honest their tasting menu for it wasn't a good value, so we just ordered off the regular menu. Other dishes were pretty good but unmemorable. read more

We had dinner June 18 with a patron who lives on QA and often eats here. We had a new waitress who didn't know vodka from gin and shouldn't have been placed in her position. After starters, which were great, we had a couple pasta plates, again great, and then ordered our main course. After an hour the waitress asked if she could clear the table at which we replied we were waiting for our food. She ran off, apparently placed the order, we waited another 45 minutes, and she pretended everything was as planned when she finally arrive with the food. No apology, no recognition that she screwed up, no discount on the bill. The head waitress / management saw it go down and did nothing. Not going back. read more

First time here. The service was good. Very cute inside. However I ordered bubby rose and it came flat the sever got me a new one so that was great The food was Amazing... the reason I gave it 3 stars was the wait times. 35 min for one pasta dish is unacceptable. Very disappointing. read more

For the price point this was not worth it in my opinion. The best thing we got was the bread basket (the butter was really good). The pastas were super al dente, almost felt undercooked. In addition, everything required more salt. We also got seated at 6:45 and the main course did not come out till 7:50. Although we got drinks and some apps, the break between that and the main course coming out was so long we got so hungry! I wouldn't recommend this spot, there are better places for this price point. The food wasn't awful though - but not worth the price read more

Fun dining experience with work colleagues in the Queen Anne neighborhood. We ordered a bunch of things to share, and the start of the night was the pasta. There were so many delicious dishes ranging from the kale caesar salad, a raw fish dish (can't remember if it was hamachi crudo), scallops, garlic bread, bucatini, tagliatelle (chef's kiss), and bistecca. Most underwhelming dish that night was the bistecca - while it was cooked to perfection, it was very underseasoned. But that's okay given how flavorful everything else was. We all had fresh cannolis to end the night and they were the perfect sweet touch to the end of a savory night! Would highly recommend for an exquisite meal in the area. read more

My partner and I like to visit Queen Anne on occasion, and decided to finally try How to Cook a Wolf. We made reservations beforehand for inside dining and were seated quite promptly. Service was consistent and great throughout the evening. We really like the decisions with natural material for the interior -- beautifully shaped wood that curved in the corners, stone slabs making up the bar, and copper hints with warm lighting. It was perfect for our romantic dinner, and calming for somebody like me who doesn't always feel comfortable in restaurants. It's hard to start off wrong with the Sea Wolf Sourdough. If it was more than the two of us, we would likely have orderd more starters, but didn't want to ruin our appetitie for mains and dessert. My partner ordered the Rigatoni -- "wild boar bolognese bianco, ricotta salata, herbs". We had never had a white bolgnese before. I ordered the King Salmon since I was hankering for some lovely fish, and we shared both dishes. The rigatoni stole the show. We enjoyed it slowly and the combined umami of the cheese and the wild boar was succulent. The pasta was perfectly firm with a pleasant chew. I confess, I don't usually like rigatoni, but this house made pasta converted my opnion! The salmon was buttery with perfectly crisp skin, and the squash was especially tasty. Despite this, the rigatoni made the salmon feel more like a side dish. If we lived around here, we would return to enjoy every single pasta dish on the menu. We managed to save room for dessert and asked for a reduced size since we only had room for a single scoop each. The caramel gelato was delectable -- perfectly balanced. My partner and I were not fans of the sea salt on the mango sobretto. Without the salt, the sobretto flavorful was delightfully refreshing. We would definitely return if we're back in Washington. Highly recommend! read more

The menu doesn't adequately convey the complexity of the food here. We had an outstanding meal in this cozy Queen Anne restaurant. Simple dishes like sourdough bread come alive with spreads featuring fennel or roasted garlic and balsamic. The "bruschetta" is actually crostinia spread with smoked fish dip. And, most stunning of all, a pappardelle was infused with orange zest, mint, and chili oil. Truly the best pasta dish I've ever had. Service by Martin was stellar. He was a great host, waiter, and informant about all of the dishes. The bar is turning out great cocktails, while the wine list leans more toward austere whites and international reds. While compact, the dining area is not overly noisy. Definitely exceeded our expectations. read more

One of my favorite restaurants to visit for any occasion, recently came here with friends from out of town. I think we ordered almost everything on the menu. The sourdough was always a favorite, also if you know the bruschetta. The pancetta was super juicy with the right amount of crisp. We enjoyed two orders of the gnocchi and the steak, surprisingly tender, and delicious. I was a little underwhelmed by the strawberries and cream, but still a nice touch after the meal. read more

Service was wonderful, drinks were delightful but the food had a lot of misses. Sea Wolf Sourdough bread was divine! The spread and garlic cloves in balsamic were to die for! Bone marrow was well prepared and presented. Barrata was ok. The Tostinis it came with were more like crackers. Hamachi crudo was over salted but ok otherwise. Bistecca came out cold and was one of the last dishes to arrive at the table. Unacceptable to me but the table was not one to say anything. Salmon was way overcooked. How do you cook salmon wrong in Seattle? I would have sent it back too but wasn't my dish. Gnocchi was great! Balanced flavor enhanced with pepper. Rigatoni bianco sauce had NO flavor. When attempting to ask the waitress how to add or enhance flavor she seemed lost in any suggestions except for salt. My last experience here years ago was wonderful but for all the basic misses at a high price point I wouldn't go back. Hopefully just an off night for them. read more

Fantastic anniversary meal at HTCAW. We were made comfortable outside with foot and table heating. Our waitress was nice and pleasant, even giving us tips to recreate the fantastical fennel pollen honey butter. We sat at 4:20 and a wrong app was sent and then we didn't have our water carafe returned (I went for one myself eventually)...no big deals but it happened. The bread is a must, just a delight all around. I would try something other than the cauliflower--I like mine more roasted, though it was a beautiful plate. The kale salad is tender and flavorful while also being too salty for my taste with the bread crumbs. The pickled cherries were delicious. The mains were what brought us in and would def bring us back--no notes on the steak combo. The halibut was perfectly cooked, just less of those breadcrumbs in the future...so many salty breadcrumbs. The panna cotta was creamy, just like at Tavolata, and while we asked for the compote on the side, it wasn't a rhubarb compote but a raspberry and blueberry compote. The cheesecake had lovely crispies that were the star of the dish. The chocolate is nice. We will return here for sure and are inspired to branch out into more ESR places. (Mkt was one of the best meals of my life during SRW and introduced me to ESR but they're no longer in the group.) read more

Nestled in the charming Queen Anne neighborhood, How to Cook a Wolf offers a modern yet cozy atmosphere with great aesthetics and a solid playlist. The vibe alone makes it a spot worth visiting. We started with the burrata and bone marrow, both served with perfectly toasted house-made sourdough. The bone marrow was massive, and the pickled shallot jam balanced its richness beautifully. For mains, the tagliatelle in truffle pecorino sauce was overwhelmingly salty--so much so that it was hard to enjoy, I had to send it back. Unfortunately, this made the rigatoni pasta which was served carbonara style seem bland in comparison, lacking depth and flavor. The conchiglie, my favorite, had tender mussels (no shells which was a plus!), but the tomato sauce also leaned on the salty side. Even though I was excited about our mains, I don't think I'd come back for any of their pastas... Service was the highlight of the night. Our waitress had a calm and cool presence, and the entire staff was attentive, offering fresh plates and detailed dish explanations. While the pasta fell short, I'd return for the appetizers and to try their proteins next time. read more

Had a great dinner here! The staff was fantastic, and we lucked out with half-off cocktails on Tuesday. We loved both the Smoke Swindler and Everything Nice--delicious and a great deal! We started with Sea Wolf Sourdough, a favorite, and tried the marrow bone, which was a bit underwhelming, but hey, more bread is always a plus. The cauliflower dish was a standout--the goat cheese and beet made it so bright and flavorful. We tried the Agnolotti which was tasty. The Paccheri only had three shrimp pieces--would have loved a bit more there. Overall, a solid experience with some real highlights! read more

it's been years (maybe decades?) since i've been to an ethan stowell restaurant but a friend was in town and staying on lower queen anne so i decided we'd go up the hill and try how to cook a wolf. when i went to make the reservation, i was a little hesitant to do so in the outdoors booths despite the disclaimer that they're covered and have heat. with the increasing rain and wind in late october, i wasn't sure it would be a pleasant situation for an out of towner but it turned out just fine, so i'd say that no indoor availability should not deter you from making an outdoor online reservation. we chose 4-5 appetizers and everything was superb. sea wolf sourdough bread never, ever disappoints and the fennel butter was delicious! the olives were great to pick at and had good flavor since they also come with garlic and tiny red peppers. the ahí crudo was great, the cauliflower with beet puree was super tasty and the burrata was amazing. by the time our pasta main dishes arrived i was plenty satiated but thankfully still had room to spare. my friend chose the oxtail gnocchi and i had the fall special with butternut squash, brown butter and sage. both were gobbled up. we ended with a scoop of each of the gelato options which are usually served separately but since we could decide on one, we asked for both. ethan stowell establishments have developed a pnw reputation for a reason and this meal did not disappoint. it was fresh, great flavors served promptly and by staff who know just how to gauge if you need something or want to be left to the company you arrived with. my friend was in town for the antiquarian book fair and i would highly encourage people who are on lower queen anne for an event at seattle center to brave a walk or drive up the hill because i've always believed the top of queen anne has better food offerings than the lower half; this experience cemented that thought. read more

I visited for Seattle restaurant week. I really enjoyed the starter, but the main wasn't particularly special. The olives aren't pitted and are quite salty, so I would personally avoid ordering them. Seems like there was a mixup with the online reservation so we just waited for walk in, but the hosts/servers would go 20+ minutes at a time without checking back in (for example, would ask if we wanted bar seats, then walk away saying that they'd come back for the answer -- and then walk back and forth past us for 20 minutes without checking back in. They also barely checked in during dining after ordering and only came by while dropping off food, which made it particularly difficult to try to order anything else since we were sat on the patio. The inside is nice, and the patio seating is well done. Also, the mandatory 20% gratuity is not very transparent, and it doesn't seem like it fully goes to the hourly staff, but that's uncertain. read more

I saw this place on TikTok and was really excited to go. We forgot to make reservations but the service was really nice and we were seated quickly in an outdoor booth. We were able to order quickly but food took an hour to arrive. Sitting outside hungry made us easily agitated and irritated at the blaring music and blinding street lights. When the food finally came out the portions were tiny and the bill felt excessive. The food was of course good (ahi was delicate with a cute kick of spice and the pasta was nice) but just not enough for us two. I can't say I'd recommend this place, but I did appreciate the attentive staff, heat lamps, and cute decor. read more

We came to How to Cook a Wolf in Queen Anne to celebrate a personal milestone, and from the moment we walked in, we knew we'd made the right choice. The hospitality was warm and effortless the kind of genuine, attentive service that's rare to come by these days. Every course was beautifully prepared and paced just right. The flavors were bold but balanced, and the kitchen clearly puts real thought into seasonality and detail. Cocktails were dialed in, but it was the wine program that truly stood out. Megs, the wine director, has curated something special here an approachable yet thoughtful list that perfectly complemented the food. Her passion came through in every recommendation. This is the kind of place where you feel taken care of. No pretense, just quality through and through. We'll be talking about this night for a long time. read more

I visited How to Cook a Wolf during restaurant week. I have heard a lot about this spot so I definitely had high expectations. The service was kind of off and on. While we were waiting to be seated we were served complimentary sparkling wine and the hostess was definitely sweet. I do feel like our actually server didn't stand out. We waited a long time even after ordering to be given water, and we were seated outdoors and needed to flag someone down to replace the gas tank in our heater. I was really looking forward to trying the wild boar bolognese, but we were informed by our server that they had run out, I wish we were offered some kind of alternative or at least a recommendation for a different dish! Regardless we had a really good time, the food was very tasty and I would come back again! The restaurant week menu was definitely a good way to try out some of the menu items. read more

I'm gonna start off by saying if you go to a restaurant with three dollar signs $$$ listed on Yelp, if you can't knock off a Star for it being more expensive than other restaurants. You can preview the menu and prices before you eat there (just keep that in mind for everyone going through and reading reviews) That being said, we did go here for a special occasion, and would likely not eat here regularly because it's more pricey, but definitely still worth the visit. When we first moved here, we were recommended this restaurant. I'm only sorry to say that I wish we tried this place sooner! I made reservations ahead of time, online. We came on a Thursday evening in the summer and it was very popular. I saw quite a few groups come up to ask for a table who did not have a reservation and could not be seated. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, however, I didn't really look inside because we sat outside on their patio. The patio does have a covered roof and the tables that are not under the roof have umbrellas. It's definitely a cute little spot in Queen Anne, great for a special occasion or a nice date night. Because I noted in my reservation that we were coming for a celebration, our server brought us celebratory glasses of champagne-like bubbly - I loved that! They recommend ordering a few different things. Our server was friendly and helpful with the menu. We first started with wine by ordering the seasonal positive contact wine flight. Apparently these wines are all skin contact wines (look it up if you're unfamiliar) which I've never had. I'm glad I had the opportunity to try them however, I absolutely hated these wines -- and I don't mean they were okay tasting I mean I did not finish drinking them after tasting. My husband, however, I thought that they were okay -- I think it's a preference thing, and my preference is not skin contact wine! We started off with a baby lettuce salad. When I first read the ingredients of the salad, I was not interested in ordering it, but my husband insisted. I was pleasantly surprised by how well all of the flavors went together. We ordered the polenta fritters, after seeing them go to another table. I don't even like polenta, but I loved these, probably because they were super crispy on the outside, similar to a hush puppy consistency. The sourdough from Sea Wolf Bakery was extra toasty which I like, and came with two dips - my husband ate the fennel-honey butter and I enjoyed the balsamic garlic, so soft it became spreadable! The ravioli most certainly did have depth! Both spicy but sweet from the sultanas and had a base of ricotta to balance it out. I forgot to take a picture of the Creste di Gallo (Wild Boar Bolognese) because we ate it so quickly - never had wild boar but we loved the flavor combos with the pasta itself. We chose not to order dessert because we had other plans so I cannot speak to that. I would definitely recommend coming here for a nice evening with a date or for a get-together - just be sure to make a reservation! read more
