very excellent service. everyone was so attentive. Delicious food excellent drinks.

My wife and I came to Wolf for birthday celebrations and this restaurant is special! The interior decor is very charming and intimate, and the vibes here are awesome. They had a live DJ on Saturday night to create a nice dinner atmosphere. Our favorite highlights were the Wagyu sliders and Chilean seabass along with all of the signature cocktails. One important thing about this place is that you'll definitely need a reservation during the weekend given its popularity so be sure to book atleast 1-2 weeks in advance if you want a good time. Overall, this is a wonderful date spot in Scottsdale if you're trying to impress your date and want to dress up! read more

Decor/Env: fun, high-end, classy, extravagantly stylish Loved everything about this restaurant. So why only 4 stars. The music. It was great songs but it was sooooo loud!! We felt like we were at the club right in front of the DJ. Everyone was yelling to talk over the music. Apart from that we loved the place. Will be returning. read more

We came here for our anniversary! We had a really good time. We started with the famous cheese balls, they were pretty good, I'd definitely order them again. For dinner I got the shrimp tacos and my wife got the risotto. I had heard great things from several of our friends who had been there. It was really good but I was more impressed with their staff. They didn't hover but were attentive. The thing that I always enjoy is it actually seamed like the staff enjoyed working there! That's what will get me to comeback! read more

Wolf is beautiful, it's very chic with fantastic views. A group of us sat at one of the large round tables with a rotating chandelier. It's was a very comfortable corner. Service was great and all of our food and beverages were delicious! For our appetizers we ordered the goat cheese-cheese balls, the tuna tartare tostada and the lump crab corn hush puppies. The tuna tartare tostada was my favorite, so fresh and flavorful. For my entree I had the 6oz prime filet mignon, Cooked to perfection and so tender. The drinks are all so beautiful, picture perfect. My drink, the Peter rabbit had the cutest little carrot, adorable. read more

We made reservations to celebrate our anniversary on a Saturday night. We were greeted by the 3 or 4 hostesses at the hostess stand who were all very sweet and full of smiles. We arrived about 30 minutes early to grab a drink so went to the bar. Unfortunately half of the restaurant was closed off for a private event which meant the 2nd bar was closed off as well. Sadly no seats at the bar but 2 seats they said were reserved. By the way, we noticed they were still reserved and empty when we walked out two hours later so that was a little disappointing. We went back to the hostess stand who were able to seat us right away. My first dining experience at Wolf was quite an evening. Everyone in the restaurant was dressed to kill. Glamours, stunning, excited to be there. This evening felt off like everyone was just coming off the golf course. Super casual for such a beautiful restaurant. There were actually two men at the bar wearing swim trunks. IMHO, the restaurant is just so beautiful, I was surprised at how casual most people dressed. I didn't catch our servers name but she was nice and attentive. For drinks we ordered two dirty martinis. They were served correctly and ice cold. For our appetizer, we ordered the HEIRLOOM BEETS $16. Heirloom & Striped Beets, Pistachios, Lemon & Herb Pesto, Baby Arugula, Burrata. This was refreshing and delicious. Large enough for your people to share. For dinner, I ordered the 6oz PRIME FILET MIGNON. $59. Cognac Butter, Parsnip Purée, Seasonal Vegetables, Cabernet Demi Glace, Roasted Red Onion Petals, Potatoes Anna. This was delicious. Filet cooked perfect medium. My husband ordered the BUTTER SEARED CHILEAN SEABASS. $59. Sauce Vierge with Capers, Lemon Butter, Baby Cherry Tomato, Black Olives, Potatoes Anna, Seasonal Vegetables. He loved it and said it was super flavorful. Loved the potatoes. As it was our anniversary they offered us a dessert but we were too full to accept. Very nice of the restaurant. Overall we really enjoyed our dinner and evening. Although there were a few unexpected occurrences, they didn't spoil our night. We will be back. read more

We celebrated my birthday dinner at Vanderpump's Wolf with a group of friends, such a fun night! It was our whole group's first time visiting. We arrived about 45 minutes early to grab a drink at the hotel rooftop bar. They had a live band and the views of Camelback were stunning. We were there just before sunset, and the sky turned the prettiest shades of pink, such a perfect start to the evening. When we headed down for our reservation, we were seated right away. The decor immediately stood out. Antler chandeliers mixed with furs and crystals, oversized chairs, and wolf statues created this unique blend of elegance and rustic charm. The whole space feels like a rustic bougie dream. The bar itself is incredibly long and cool. Our group sat at a great round table with a mix of booth seating and chairs, which made it feel social and comfortable. We staged with cocktails, and they were just as fun as they were delicious. The Pumped Up Kicks espresso martini came with a wolf chocolate and a donut hole. The Petter Rabbit garden margarita was another standout, complete with the tiniest carrot I have ever seen, so cute! For appetizers, we ordered the lump crab and corn hush puppies, the famous goat cheese balls, and the tuna tartare tostadas. Everything was excellent, but the tuna tartare tostadas were my favorite. They were incredibly fresh and the poke sauce really good. The goat cheese balls and hush puppies were such a hit with the group that we ended up ordering another round of each for the table. For my entrée, I had the butter seared Chilean seabass, which was cooked perfectly. It came with cherry tomatoes, lemon, olives, and capers, along with light vegetables and potatoes that balanced the dish really well. Others at the table ordered the brisket and tri tip bolognese, the 6oz prime filet mignon with roasted red onion petals and potatoes Anna, and the tricolore risotto. Everyone enjoyed their meals overall, although the risotto was surprisingly very spicy, which caught us off guard. We also added a side of truffle fries, which were definitely worth it. For dessert, we shared the house made chocolate brownie, a perfect sweet ending to the meal. They brought it with a candle to sing Happy Birthday. The service was great throughout the night, and we never felt rushed, which made it easy to relax and enjoy the evening. Between the atmosphere, the creative cocktails, and the delicious food, it was such a fun experience. We will definitely be back. read more

Wolf is one of the most stylish restaurants and lounges in Scottsdale with the best sunset views from the Caesars Republic Hotel's 7th floor. Of course you expect creative cocktails; however, the food was also amazing. The prices were upscale; however, reasonable considering the renovated decor, great service and location. read more

I took two of my girlfriends who were visiting from out of town to Wolf by Vanderpump back in January. They're both fans of the Vanderpump shows so they were excited to check it out. We arrived around 5 pm on a Saturday. We didn't have reservations, but we were able to grab a few seats at the bar. Wolf by Vanderpump is on the 7th floor of Caesars Republic Scottsdale which offers stunning views of Camelback Mountain. The ambiance is sexy and upscale. The bartenders were friendly and greeted us as soon as got to the bar. We ordered the following: Salted caramel espresso martini $21 Pumptini $20 The famous goat cheese balls $17 Caviar and chips $45 Signature wolf bread $16 The drinks were fun and tasty. The salted caramel espresso martini was definitely more of a dessert, which I enjoyed. The goat cheese balls, caviar and chips, and wolf bread were all delicious. The caviar & chips only came with 1/2 oz caviar, which isn't much especially to share, so keep that in mind if you order that. Reservations are highly recommended. Visit during sunset! read more

I was fully prepared to be disappointed in all of the food after reading the reviews but I ended up being pleasantly surprised! We had to get the famous goat cheese balls with hatch chile and hot honey of course. These were pretty good! Not sure what makes them famous but I liked the creamy mix of goat cheese with the spicy hot honey. We paired these with the tuna tartare tostadas which were so unexpectedly delicious and fresh for being in Scottsdale! Would absolutely get these again. We also shared the Caesar salad. This was good but I didn't love the whole anchovies. Service was excellent. We let the waitress know we were in a bit of a hurry and she got us our food, drinks, and the bill in under 40 minutes. Amazing! Honestly, it was pretty expensive so I can see being underwhelmed if you got some of the mains but I think it's a great spot for happy hour or just drinks and light bites. I was also pretty surprised to learn they are not dog friendly! Given Lisa's animal activism and love for her own dog (there's even portraits of him in the restaurant), I was really surprised the don't allow furry companions. read more

Looks like they remodeled since I last visited. Inside seating available or pick up and take to go! I like how clean it was inside and updated. Staff was friendly and helped us right away. Sandwiches are always great, my favorite Italian bmt. Also more affordable. read more

This place is an absolutely incredible experience! The restaurants is within Caesars, and the decor, design, and ambiance to this place is extremely unique, elegant, and enjoyable. Staff here seems to be very knowledgeable about the menu, very friendly and helpful in providing menu suggestions when guests are unsure of what to order, and they take wonderful care of their guests. We were frequently checked on, water and drink refills were never too long, and they did a wonderful job of helping to celebrate my wife's birthday. For an appetizer we ordered their bread service. The bread came with two different flavored butters that could be enjoyed, both of which were fantastic. It also had some crispy, melted cheese that added a great crunch and flavor above and beyond what would've been expected. For dinner, I had their Wolf Burger, which came with 8oz of wagyu beef (2 patties), onions, and their delicious house aioli. Easily one of the better burgers I've had in recent years in the Old Town Scottsdale area. This place is a must try if you're looking for something unique, or a venue for a special occasion such as a birthday, anniversary, or any other celebration. read more

I heard about the goat cheese balls for years on Vanderpump Rules. I made all of our dinner reservations a month or so before our trip. While looking at different restaurants, I discovered I was going to be in a city where Lisa Vanderpump had a restaurant and I could get goat cheese balls! Clearly we had to go there! The restaurant is on the seventh floor of the Caesars Republic Hilton Hotel in Scottsdale. We had a reservation and were greeted at the hostess stand right at the entrance to the restaurant. We were seated in a cozy corner and it was nice because there was so much to look at! I would have taken more photos but didn't want to disturb other diners. The whole place is a vibe - there's something to look at everywhere. Our fabulous server, Coco, came over and introduced herself. We asked if she would take a photo of us before we got started (it was Easter - we ended a pic) and she was happy to do so. She took us outside and took it with the sun setting in the back. Loved it! I've included it with my other photos in this review. Coco was very knowledgeable about the menu and that definitely helped us make our choices. We started with cocktails, the wonderful goat cheese balls, and a signature bread. We wouldn't get the bread again - it was kind of a nothing. But the goat cheese balls! The hype is real! Our food, cocktails,service, the vibe - everything was on point and we can't wait to go again when we're in read more

Highly recommend making a reservation, especially if you want to go for dinner. My friend and I had a reservation for 5:30pm on a Sunday. We arrived early, so they told us we could go to the bar or go upstairs to the Camelback Veranda for a drink on the rooftop. We grabbed mocktails on the deck and enjoyed the mountainous views until we got a phone call that our table was ready. They let us bring our drinks with us. By then a lot more people were checking into the restaurant. After having watched 11 seasons of Vanderpump Rules, I can say that the detailed, over-the-top decor was absolutely what you'd expect from a Lisa Vanderpump business. It had a darker, more mysterious vibe with lots of wolf sculptures and pictures. Some of the chairs looked like thrones. The entire restaurant had a great view of the mountains. They even opened some of the windows as the sun was setting - such a great photo op! I really wanted to try the popular Pump-tini, but I was driving us. Maybe next time. We did get the famous goat cheese balls that Stassi was so obsessed with in the show. Honestly, it did not meet the hype for me - it was good, but I wouldn't go out of my way to get them. The truffle fries were good. We both got the Beurre Blanc salmon, which is coated with breadcrumbs that gave it a nice crunch. The dish is available gluten-free as well. It comes with seasonal vegetables and potatoes that were seasoned well. We looked at the dessert menu, but nothing piqued our interest. Overall, we had a good experience here. The staff seemed well-trained and knew the menu very well. Our server was very friendly, personable, and attentive. I would come back and try some of the cocktails and other dishes. read more

Another beautiful restaurant concept by the Lisa Vanderpump. This is her first restaurant in Arizona and the vibes totally match her normal aesthetic. It's a bit hard to find within the Caesars Republic, you have to go past the desk & to the elevators and down a hallway. Once there. i was in love with the natural sunlight & gorgeous views. The menu features various small plates like the famous goat cheese balls & larger plates. I opted for sharing a few of apps paired with some Vanderpump rosé. I didn't like the bread as much as I thought I would, the black lava butter was far too salty & it tasted a bit over cooked. The tuna tostadas were my favorite, very tasty. I'll have to come back to try some of the main entrees next time. Overall it was a great visit. The service was fantastic, food & drinks were tasty and vibes were lovely. I'll definitely be back again soon. read more

3.5* but being generous and bumping up to 4* because we really liked our waitress and the cocktails. Also, I am hoping some of the kinks are worked out with more time. Hopefully the GM sees this and takes some of my feedback and improves things. Pros 1. Goat cheese balls! Get them. Who doesn't like fried cheese with yummy sauce? 2. The vibe of the restaurant was great. Fun and upbeat atmosphere 3. Drinks were creative and the presentation was very fun and unique 4. Waitress knew we were not thrilled to sit at a low table in the bar area, but she helped us make the best of it and said we're going to have fun. And we did! 5. Food was pretty good, nothing creative or exciting, though. Cons 1. Seating was really, really cramped. We were seated in the bar area at a low cocktail table even though I made a reservation a while back for the dining room. I asked about it and was told that the bar tables are considered the dining room. I don't like that at all. They offered a tiny and extremely cramped table in the dining room if we wanted to switch, but it was actually worse than sitting in the bar area so we stayed in the bar area. 2. Very loud making it hard to hear the conversation. I love good music and don't mind loud, but this combined with all the other guests wasn't conducive to being able to hear what my date was saying. 3. We waited at least 45 minutes past our reservation time. Luckily, we weren't in a rush but it started the night out on a frustrating note. read more

I was invited to Wolf for a birthday meet up for drinks and appetizers. It was a Thursday night during Waste Management Week, so it was definitely crowded and busy. There was no available parking when I arrived at 8:30pm so I had to use the fashion square parking lot and walk over. We were a party of 9, and were seated on the patio which was the pool area furniture that wasn't comparable to the seating and decorations in the establishment, which was disappointing. Our waitress was friendly and knowledgeable of the menu and suggested some great choices for food and drinks. The overall experience was good but not enough to bring me back on my own. read more

Great place to meet the girlfriends and have some cocktails and appetizers. Two of us intended on getting lunch but filled up on the bread and goat cheese balls (also expensive). We paid $90 for 2 cocktails, bread and goat cheese balls But the ambiance is great, big open windows to see the mountains and a lot of light we had a great server who was super bubbly and had lots of good recs read more

I visited Wolf this past Saturday, Valentine's Day, for a late lunch at 2:45 PM. The only other reservation I saw was for 10 PM, which surprised me since the restaurant was not very busy when we arrived. We made it just on time for our reservation and were told our table was "on hold for 15 minutes," which ended up meaning a brief wait. We were seated around 3 PM. We started with the signature Wolf bread, which was slightly warm, though I would have preferred it hotter. I loved the hot honey butter, although it was more sweet than spicy for me. The whipped lava salt butter was good, with a light, fluffy texture and black salt sprinkled on top. Despite the dark, crusty-looking exterior, the bread was soft inside. I would definitely order this again. Next, we tried the goat cheese balls. I enjoy lemony flavors, and these were very lemon-forward, perhaps a bit too much for me after a few bites. Some extra sauce would have been helpful to balance the flavor. The slaw was fresh, though it lacked the sweetness I expected from pear. I probably would not order this again. For my main course, I had the beurre blanc salmon. The salmon was cooked beautifully, tender and flaky, but I wished the toasted breadcrumbs added more crunch to complement the soft texture. The sauce was light and subtly lemony, and I considered adding some salt to boost the flavor. Overall, it felt like the dish aimed to showcase the natural taste of the fish and vegetables rather than offer bold flavors. While I enjoy salty, robust dishes, I appreciate the subtlety in fish because it allows the flavor to shine, even if it is not a flavor explosion. My husband ordered the Wolf burger and absolutely loved it. Overall, service was great, despite being seated slightly later than our reservation. I enjoyed the meal, though I felt some dishes could have used more flavor or texture but Wolf is a pretty restaurant and offers a nice atmosphere. That said, the subtle, well-executed preparations may be just right for others. read more

Wolf by Vanderpump at Caesars Republic Scottsdale - Bleurre Blanc Salmon - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Scottsdale, Arizona

Finally had dinner at Wolf by Vanderpump. The ambience is definitely a vibe. A lot of things to purchase as well if you're into collecting. There are 2 bar areas and ample seating. Definitely doesn't feel like a date night when hotel guests come to dinner in their pajamas but still fun. I will say for us the best dish were the the goat cheese balls from the appetizer list. They are fried and served with a sweet sauce on the side. They were a 4 out of 5 only because they were dry and hard to get the sauce on them. I ordered an athletic light because I don't drink and drive and it was very crisp!! I had a spring salad. It said it came with avocado but there wasn't any and the waitress sent it back but I still received it without the avocado so it was just a leafy green salad with very long slices of cucumber and tomato. It was a 1 out of 1. For dessert I had the brownie and ice cream and that was a 5 out of 5. If I ever went back, I'd go for a cocktail, maybe the cheeseboard and a different app and dessert. It's just one of those places that you can say, ya I've been there. The "Venue Admin Fee" of 3.50% is ridiculous and of course no one tells you about it. read more

Attention Vanderpump Fans! We were so excited to try Wolf in Scottsdale located on the 7th floor of Caesars Republic Scottsdale for my 52nd birthday and Easter weekend. We made reservations ahead of time for an early dinner on this perfect April Arizona day and passed hotel guests lounging at the pool area attached to the restaurant. Service was really great here and I was treated extra special as bday girl and offered either complimentary birthday shots for the table or a birthday dessert to share (if I chose to). I really enjoyed the exquisite decor of neutrals, metallics, bling, fur covered textiles, & wild predatory beasts! Let's not forget portraits of Giggy and of Lisa displayed throughout. Of course we ordered the Famous Goat Cheese Balls with delicious Hatch Chile Hot Honey. We tried the Chilean Seabass, Ken's Haddock 'n' Chips, Tricolore Risotto for dinner and sampled cocktails before enjoying the brownie and ice cream dessert topped with a Wolf chocolate square. What a great experience and evening! read more

I was so excited I could scream to finally try Wolf by Vanderpump! From the second you step off the elevator into that stunning B&W photo-op with Lisa, you know you're in for a treat. OMGGGGG! Lisa really did the damn thing with the decor. Between the "glass snow" chandeliers and the faux fur chairs, I felt like royalty. The attention to detail--down to the Wolf-engraved pillows--is top-notch. Hits: The drinks are incredibly well-balanced (A+ on the mocktails too!). The lobster ceviche tacos were so fresh and crunchy we ordered three more. And the CHURROS... absolute deep-fried perfection. Misses: The goat cheese balls are tasty but tart, so ask for extra marmalade! Unfortunately, the "Wolf Bread" was only lukewarm, and the lobster balls were a huge letdown--cold and fishy. The service was stellar--shout out to Parker (manager) and Laura (server) for being so gracious! Wolf has only been open a couple of months, so I'm giving them some "new kid on the block" grace. Scottsdale is a foodie mecca, so I hope the kitchen tightens up those temps soon. I'll be back to give it another shot! read more

I've been dying to go to a LVP restaurant since Stassi and Jax were a thing. When I had to go to Scottsdale for work, my friends surprised me with a (belated) birthday lunch at Wolf, and walking in, I was completely blow away. The woman knows how to create *a vibe* and the ambiance is stunning. It wasn't at all crowded on a Sunday afternoon just before 2, and we were expecting a lot. Thinking back on the experience, I'm reminded of the scene from 10 Thing I Hate About You when Chastity says, "You can be overwhelmed or underwhelmed, but can you ever be just whelmed?" At first, I was over, then I was jut whelmed, and very quickly I was underwhelmed. I ordered an Everything But The Bagel martini which somehow took like 20 minutes to make after everyone else got their drinks. I guess I was expecting something great? It was just the seasoning in my regular martini. My friend's cocktail was smoked and came out with the smoke dome, and that's always a really fun thing to see, but it was all show, no flavor. We got the famous goat cheese balls, and they were so bland and boring I cannot understand how they are famous. They were lukewarm and there was nothing but goat cheese in a crust. I guess people have been raving about them for 20 years, so we were all expecting to be blown away - though these started in LA and perhaps no one eats there. The pull-apart bread is not that, it's just....bread. The butters it comes with have things in them that you can't really taste. I mean, it wasn't bad, but it wasn't worth the hype. I got the chicken Caesar wrap, and it was not at all impressive. Food trucks have made better. The lettuce was so lightly dressed it should have been "crispy chicken with (wilted) iceberg lettuce and once frozen fries." Two of my dining companions got the beet salad, and the beets weren't cooked evenly. One of them added shrimp for $12 and it was a SINGLE SHRIMP. My 4th friend got the wings and shrimp cocktail, which were the best meals of the group. That being said, she has a severe egg allergy and the servers were positive the bread and cheese balls didn't have egg, until we asked them to please ask the chef (they definitely have egg). They did bring out complementary dessert, which was vanilla gelato on a brownie and a cup of vanilla gelato for my allergy-ridden friend, and it was the most confusing part of the entire experience. It was under no circumstances "gelato" and it tasted like something and nothing at all. It was like one of those airy nothing artificially flavored Tasty D'Lites from the early 2000s. It was also not vanilla - it tasted like caramel lemon something? I dunno, it was a lovely gesture but it was also just so odd that we didn't eat it. The whole lunch took almost two hours - no water refills, the server didn't come by that much, and it was just not a place to go if you had things to do and places to be. I'm glad I went, I'm glad I have tried everything so I can have a first-hand opinion, but I'm not clamoring to go back. read more

Generous portion of the famous goat cheese balls, though a smidge bland. Signature wolf bread is tasty and the accoutrements were appreciated. Shrimp tacos... shrimp nicely fried but the undercooked tortilla really didn't do it for me. Strong cocktails, great service. LVP ambience which I kinda adore. read more

Wolf is a beautiful space with a lovely team. I'm obsessed about the Campari Tomato salad and my sea bass (off menu prepared with simple butter lemon - not the menu recipe) was divine. However our table reservation was 30 minutes late. Multiple check in with the front desk finally led to them offering us a glass of bubbles. But no other real accommodation. Then the service remained sluggish with multiple requests for water, wine and even clearing of dirty plates. These details are critical to gaining repeat customers. Happy to chat with management if they would like! read more

Went here for my birthday dinner and it met and exceeded all my expectations. We were sat in a gorgeous corner booth and welcomed with a welcome shot. I ordered the Dirty Dog Martini which is perfect for savory girls. As an appetizer we got the world famous goat cheese balls which were worth the hype. For an entree I got the Brisket and Tri Tip Bolognese which was amazing. My friend also got the garden green salad which was to die for. An amazing experience. Our server was also the best ever. read more

Stopped by Wolf by Vanderpump in Scottsdale on New Year's Day for drinks and appetizers. The ambiance was amazing and the service was great. You can really see Lisa Vanderpump's vision throughout the restaurant--from the wolf-themed chairs to the rotating chandeliers. The space is visually stunning and has a fun, upscale vibe. Definitely a great spot for cocktails and soaking in the atmosphere. I will definitely be back to try more of their menu. read more

Last night was my first time dining here. A friend of mine, who has been coming since the restaurant opened and absolutely loves it, highly recommended that I give it a try. I made a reservation through OpenTable for 10:45 PM. There was a little confusion at the hostess stand upon arrival, but the staff was extremely friendly and able to get me seated. I was seated at the bar at 10:54 PM. Unfortunately, after being seated, no one acknowledged me--not even to offer water. I waited until 11:09 PM without a greeting or service. There were three staff members behind the bar: two polishing glasses (one directly in front of me) and a bartender moving back and forth handling tasks, while guests around me were being served drinks. I was never asked if I wanted anything, not even water, nor was I greeted. As this was my first visit, it wasn't the best first impression. I eventually went back to the hostess stand to let them know I was going to leave, as I didn't feel particularly welcomed. The hostess who initially seated me was genuinely apologetic and kind. As I was heading to the elevator, the general manager, Paul, stopped me to personally apologize and offered to buy me a drink, explaining that there were several hiccups that evening. By that point, I had already decided to leave, so I didn't get the opportunity to eat or drink. I do appreciate the sincere apology from both the hostess and the general manager. The space itself is beautiful, the menu looks divine, and the drink options are very appealing. I'm willing to give this restaurant another try once it's been around a bit longer and staff training and service flow are more refined--especially since the basic two-minute greeting rule was missed. It also wasn't particularly busy at the time, which made the situation more confusing. I look forward to returning in the future and fingers crossed hopefully having a much better experience. read more

My boyfriend and I ate at Wolf by Vanderpump to celebrate our anniversary. We are big Lisa fans and have eaten at her restaurants in Las Vegas and LA - so expectations were high. Wolf did not disappoint. The entire experience was very positive. Since we were looking for a Friday evening, I made reservations about a week in advance to be safe. The restaurant never got completely full, but it was pretty busy, so do I recommend making a reservation. We were sat in a quiet corner by a fireplace. The entire ambiance is so unique and special. Everything looks and feels elevated. There are fun sculptures and lots of chandeliers throughout. Because we sat close to the entrance I didn't get to see further inside the restaurant, but they have a long bar, and lots of table options - including patio seating. The food was solid. Lots of delicious bites. To start we shared the Wolf Bread and Goat Cheese Balls. For mains, I got Ken's Haddock & Chips, my boyfriend got the Butter Seared Chilean Seabass. The bread and cheese balls were excellent. Definitely my favorite bites. My boyfriend really enjoyed his Chilean Seabass. He said the caper sauce carries the perfect notes of acidity to balance out the buttery fish. I enjoyed my fish & chips but the fries seemed out of place. With so many well-crafted dishes, I would expect fresh hand-cut fries or something that feels elevated. These were very run of the mill fries, the same you would find at any chain restaurant. Our server was excellent. Super friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. She made us feel welcome right from the start. Looking forward to returning here again soon! read more

I visited WOLF by Vanderpump during a trip to Scottsdale, and wow--what an experience. Located on the 7th floor of Caesars Republic Scottsdale, the vibe alone is worth the visit--trendy, energetic, and just the right amount of upscale. Let's talk food... the fish was absolutely colossal (and delicious), and the fries were perfectly crispy. The Bloody Mary? So good I basically chugged it without shame. My husband ordered the burger with truffle fries, and both were exactly what you hope for--flavorful, indulgent, and totally satisfying. And the real star? The cheese balls. I would order those again and again and again--seriously, they're that good. Pricing felt pretty average for the area, especially considering the atmosphere and overall experience. If you're looking for great food, fun vibes, and a memorable spot in Scottsdale, this place definitely delivers. read more

As a first time visitor the atmosphere inside was impressive. Our reservation was at 7:30pm. We were not seated until after 8pm. Once we were seated our drinks did not arrive until 8:45pm and then our second round didn't come out until almost 10pm. With our second round of drinks the bartender forgot one of the ladies drinks who then had to wait another thirty minutes for her drink and then when that lasts drink was served our check was brought to us without asking for it. The vibes inside were great but the service was very poor. While the servers were excellent and knowledgeable the wait time was something that needs to be addressed. read more

Just visited Wolf by Vanderpump in Scottsdale for a friend's birthday, and WOW--this place absolutely lives up to the hype. From the moment we walked in, the vibe was stunning and elevated, perfect for a night out with friends. The Vanderpumps definitely know how to decorate--this place is absolutely gorgeous. I did make a reservation more than a month in advance for our group, but unfortunately a few friends had to cancel last minute. When we arrived, the hostess seemed a bit annoyed and didn't honor our original seating, instead moving us to a makeshift table that we didn't really fit around. That was honestly my only downside of the night. Let's talk drinks first because they were next-level. I ordered the Sheep's Clothing Strawberry Jalapeño Sour, and I'm still thinking about that presentation--cotton candy and gold carrot flakes?! So creative and honestly delicious. I also tried the Snowbird (fresh coconut mojito), which was super refreshing and gave total "perfect poolside drink" energy. And of course, had to try the Pumptini--such a fun, classic Vanderpump staple. For apps, we ordered the famous Goat Cheese Balls, and I totally get why everyone talks about them. The golden fried chèvre paired with the hatch chile hot honey and that Napa cabbage & pear slaw was such a good combo--sweet, savory, and a little spicy. My only tiny note: the cheese balls were pretty big, so the cheese-to-honey ratio felt a little off--there just wasn't quite enough sauce (and it was so good I wanted more of it!). We kept it light with drinks and apps for the birthday celebration, and it was the perfect choice. And honestly, the ritzy people-watching was next-level entertainment all on its own. Great atmosphere, amazing presentation, and everything we tried hit. Already planning my next visit! read more

We arrived around 9 pm, which is late but still well before their 12 am closing time, so expectations for service and food quality were still reasonable. The experience quickly fell apart. It took 45 minutes for five small goat cheese balls to arrive, which were pretty good but not worth the long wait. They were also out of frozen drinks, so I ordered the "gold water" margarita, which ended up being 95% tequila and practically undrinkable for someone who's not an alcoholic. When the food finally came out, it was greasy, bland, and completely lacking flavor. Only reason this gets 2 stars is because the atmosphere was good, but everything else was so bad. read more

Wow what a beautiful restaurant! Such fun drinks and appetizers! Highly recommend the pumped up kicks martini, the signature bread and the wagyu sliders with fries. read more

Reminds me of STK - great ambiance but mediocre food. Our server was very sweet and attentive. I don't understand the hype over the Signature Wolf bread - the presentation is lovely but flavor is pretty mid-tier. On the contrary, the goat cheese balls were everything! read more

I had one of the best dining experiences in Scottsdale here! We had a reservation for a birthday and this was the first restaurant that acknowledged a birthday when I put it on the reservation... SHOCKING. Three different workers acknowledged, they even wrote a card for my friend so so cute and a birthday dessert. Huge thank you to Emily our server, 10/10 service and I loved that she also watched Vanderpump. The food was delicious and our waters never went empty. We added the chimichurri to our Ribeye, best decision. The ambiance and sunset were beautiful, so many small details I adored. Next time I'll be sure to request sitting by the open window during sunset, love this place. read more
