    This restaurant was in our hotel and we definitely wanted to try it out. We popped in for drinks and appetizers. We ordered the calamari, pizza, cauliflower and the r king lap lettuce wraps. Everything was very good and the ambiance was stellar. Great spot for drinks and apps or a really nice dinner.

    Absolutely amazing! The food is incredible here. Each dish we ordered was put together with such great detail. We had our 1 year old daughter with us and our waitress Carmen was the absolute best towards her, and towards us too! 10/10 for sure. Amazing service, amazing vibes, and amazing food.

    This was overall a pretty decent meal for a restaurant in a hotel. I made a reservation in advance which is easy to do on their website. I was seated in a booth right away, and the server was generally friendly and attentive. The ambiance is open and modern. I had the chicken lettuce wraps to start which were very good if a bit lukewarm. I do like that the chicken is prefilled in the lettuce cups. I also had a ceasar salad which was decent although nothing too amazing. The croutons were fresh and crunchy. For an entree I had the schnitzel which is a classic and an homage to Wolfgang's Austrian home. It was a generous portion and quite tender with a lovely crunchy coating. The potato salad was ok, but some of the potato slices seemed a bit undercooked. For dessert I had the chocolate soufflé which was truly delicious. It takes about 20 minutes to prepare, but it's worth it. Well prepared with no eggy taste and just the right amount of chocolate. Overall this was a solid meal and worth a visit if you're staying nearby!

    We came in late evening for appetizers and drinks. The place was deserted. Our server took our order quickly and brought our drinks, but the appetizers took some time to arrive and then, when we wanted to order a second round later, finding someone to take our order became impossible.

    I came here with a group of 5 for Thanksgiving dinner this year. I had never tried this place before due to the subpar reviews. I'm familiar with who Wolfgang Puck is, but obviously this location is not a flagship or major restaurant of his. However, I was very pleased with our meal! First, the interior of the restaurant is clean, modern, "steakhouse-vibe," and it is overlooking the Grand River a bit from the Amway Plaza. We were at a high top table closer to the bar area. The service was fairly efficient. We ordered brussels sprouts and crab cakes for appetizers, and it was nice that they offered to do 5 crab cakes instead of the standard 3 since we had a group of 5 (not sure what the upcharge was). Two of us ordered the Thanksgiving dinner option, and 3 of us ordered the NY strip steak off the regular menu. The steaks were cooked great; mine was medium rare. I was pleasantly full after eating about half of my plate. A few of us shared the chocolate soufflé for dessert - really good! The salted caramel ice cream that came with it was just OK. I'm not sure I would go out of my way to come back here, but I enjoyed my meal here and thought it was fairly priced with a nice ambiance!

    My wife and I had an amazing meal here tonight. Pizza was perfect and the two noodle dishes were excellent as well. It was obvious that all ingredients were fresh. Courteous and friendly service was provided by Logan. We would certainly return another time.

    Of course we had to come here. I picked this as our last dinner our on vacation and it was perfection. What a gorgeous place, on Sundays the valet parking was free. There was a cute shop once you walk in so we could grab some goodies to bring home plus met some other tourists to talk to :P It was the perfect last meal on vacation and service was amazing. My son also sat coloring which was like a wow omg moment for us all lol. I also loved my mocktail so much.

    Empty table by the window when we arrived.

    We were staying in the Amway Grand Hotel and wanted to dine in the hotel. I phoned The Kitchen by Wolfgang Puck to see if there was room for us for that evening if we came down to the restaurant immediately. It was 6:55pm on a Saturday evening when I phoned. I was told that they could fit the two of us in at 8:00pm. When I asked if they could possibly do any earlier like 7:45pm, I was told they could do that. When I looked at the restaurant's website however, it showed availability for a table for 2 at both 7:15pm or 7:30pm. I thought that was strange? My husband arrived at the restaurant a few minutes earlier than I did (right on time at 7:45pm s assn U arrived at 7:50) and he was seated at a table in the middle of the room. I thought it was strange that the restaurant was only half full when I was told on the phone that we would have to wait almost an hour for a table? When I arrived, we asked if we could be seated at an empty table by the window so I could see the River. The waiter said he would ask and came back after speaking to the hostess, and said that unfortunately that table was spoken for. I remarked to our waiter that "I would not be happy if I saw that no one was seated there ." I meant the remark as a bit of a joke! Sure enough - during our hour at the restaurant the table stayed empty the entire time. I was very disappointed. Clearly there is some mismanagement or miscommunication with their hosts allocating the tables at this restaurant. It is sad as they probably missing out on customers due to their mismanagement. The food we had was tasty - although it took almost half an hour for our cauliflower appetizer to arrive and it was lukewarm. The mushroom pizza arrived piping hot and was also very good. Unfortunately, I was in no mood to enjoy the food after the fiasco about the empty window table.

    Gluten free chocolate soufflé with chocolate sauce and salted caramel ice cream.

    I had the best dessert and it was gluten free. I will definitely come back for this. It does take a while to cook so I'd recommend ordering it before you finish your dinner. I wasn't dining there. I just came for the dessert and a cocktail.

    Went to Wolfgang Puck to celebrate a birthday which was mentioned when making the reservation. The staff never acknowledged it once. We had a choice to sit outside or inside and chose outside which was nice right on the river. Surprisingly the food I thought was very bland for being a Wolfgang Puck restaurant. Food presentation was very nice though. When it came to service, they were severely lacking in it. Our waiter just didn't seem attentive and never came to check on us during our meal. Asked us as we were paying the bill if we wanted our water refilled; would have been nice during the meal. Our appetizer also came out after our food had already been brought out. We got the calamari which seemed to be missing something but at the same time too salty.

    Steak entree.

My husband and I got the wings to start - we did half dry rub and half garlic pad thai glazed. The rub was SPICY but it was very flavorful - they served it with fresh cucumber slices so it took a bit of the edge off. The glazed wings had a very nice flavor as well. I think the wings must have been cooked from frozen, they didn't taste super fresh as the meat was a bit dry and tough but the outer crunch was nice! For meals we both got pad thai - I did shrimp and he did chicken. The noodles were way overcooked to the point of being gummy - we tried cutting them and that was also tough. Neither one of us could finish them because it was just too tiring to eat. The flavors, again were good with the fresh cilantro, cucumber and cabbage that came along with it. The sauce, while tasty, was a bit salty. I think that with some better attention to technique, these things could easily be rectified. Service was ok. The wait time for the entrees was a little long for lunch service but we weren't in a rush. I might come for apps but won't be ordering the pad thai again .
