    A local recommended Wolfgang's while I was in town on business, and it did not disappoint. From the moment you arrive, the velvet rope entrance makes you feel like a VIP. We got there right at opening and were seated immediately. The staff was warm and welcoming, and the food was fantastic. I ordered the Ahi Ahi without any sides, and it was more than enough. The wasabi and soy sauce made the perfect dipping combo--I loved every bite!

    Chicken Parmesan with Rigatoni
    Ethan A.

    Decided to treat myself to a fancy dinner on the last night of a work trip in NJ, and invited a couple of friends to join me. It was about 5:30 on a Wednesday night and we were seated immediately without a reservation. The hostess was sweet and welcoming while the service from the wait staff was equally exceptional. Everyone was very professional and attentive, which was greatly appreciated. Our work budget was $70 per person and to our surprise, every steak/red meat dish was $70 minimum so we all had to pivot to fish/chicken dishes with pasta instead. My review won't be speaking to any of the red meat dishes, though I will say the price point is slightly higher than other steakhouses I've visited and is on par with Peter Luger. I ordered the chicken Parmesan, which was unbelievably delicious. Massive portion of chicken breast that was both breaded and cooked perfectly. It came with pasta (I subbed rigatoni) that had great texture and was nicely bathed in red sauce. This dish was a definite winner and was actually decently priced (~$36) for the gigantic portions they give. My friend order the seafood sampler pasta plate and the salmon which they both enjoyed immensely. The ambiance inside was nice as well; providing an elegant and upscale vibe that tied the experience together. Only negative I can point out, aside from being priced out of the red meat, was that the bread and butter they served were both cold. Other than that, I'm very satisfied with my experience here. I'd definitely recommend this place as a one and done (or once in a while) spot to treat yourself and others to an upscale dining experience. Just keep in mind that the price point should definitely be factored in, as the bill can get out of hand if you're not careful.

    Lobster Bisque

    Let's me it clear from the start, this isn't the place to go for cheap eats. It's expensive. A nice experience at Wolfgang's. It is a medium sized venue, that you may oddly feel cramped in. The staff is speedy, friendly, & handle everything with care to make you feel special. There is metered street parking available & metered lots behind the venue (both free after 7pm). They also have complimentary valet parking, which is a nice touch. The interior was dimly lit, as to be expected, glass panels, full bar, & wine room. At the table you get complimentary bread & butter, honestly, not the best....but it's free. We didn't do an appetizer, even though two items are appetizers & were used as a meal. We had the Crab Cake, Lobster Bisque, Shrimp Scampi, Seafood Pasta, & Baby Back Ribs. We drank Lychee Martini, Barrel-Aged Manhattan, Perfect Storm, & Basil Gimlet. For desserts both the Tiramisu & the Chocolate Mousse. The food for the most part was good (see the grades below). It was more of an experience, but not one I find necessary to repeat, mainly due to the price. It's worth a visit if you're looking for something "fancier" to do. Grades: Crab Cake: B+ Lobster Bisque: C- Shrimp Scampi: C Seafood Pasta: A Baby Back Ribs: A Lychee Martini: A Wolfgang's Barrel-Aged Manhattan: A+ Perfect Storm: C+ Cucumber Basil Gimlet: B Chocolate Mousse: A+ Tiramisu: A+

    Grilled Chilean Sea Bass

    OMG so good. Went there for Fathers Day & my meal was so good. I had lobster cocktail as an appetizer & chilean sea bass for the entire. Highly recommend both. Then I had chocolate mousse cake with a cappuccino for dessert. Also delicious. The staff was friendly & helpful. The ambiance was perfect. Perfectly deemed light & music playing softly in the background. Two thumbs up!

    Porterhouse for 2

    Came here on a random Tuesday night. Honestly, based on the overall sub-4 star rating, I had my concerns making the reservation. The night my buddy and I came, it was relatively quiet and everyone was basically seated in the middle section of the restaurant. I would rate this restaurant 4.25 stars. The ambiance is chill, it wasn't too loud, and the decor was as you would expect from a steakhouse. The waiters were all men and wore the typical white tops (i.e. Peter Lugers). We ordered the following and here's how I would rate them out of 10: Appetizers: - shrimp cocktail (we were given lobster cocktail! It was the same cost so we didn't say anything: 6/10 (nothing special, just some lobster flesh) - french onion soup: 7/10 (could use just a touch more salt) - wedge salad: 8.5/10 (the blue cheese dressing was not overwhelming and the bacon bits were amazing) Steak: - Porterhouse for 2: 9.5/10 (cooked perfectly at medium rare, charred all around and a great flavor filled with the dry-aged umami and butter.) Sides: - German potatoes: 9/10 (caramelized, slightly burnt onions were awesome) - Creamed spinach: 6/10 (could use a bit more salt and more cream) Dessert: - Tiramisu with their whipped cream: 6.5/10 (nothing special) Drinks: - Old fashioned: 8/10 (nothing special) Again, overall a 4.25 simply because the steak was near-perfect and was given what I expected. I read a lot of these 1 and 2 star comments and I don't understand how they could rate it so low. Not everything was amazing, but overall the meal was great and I would definitely go back just for the near-perfect steak. It came out sizzling and remained warm with every bite. If you're looking for a super-friendly engaged wait staff, this is not that. They serve you when the food arrives. They tell you the specials. they ask you what you want for the meal. But they don't frequently check up on you by any means. But, I don't like that personally so I'm totally okay without great service, so long as they're not rude, and they were not rude at all. Don't freak out if you want to check it out, because you read the low reviews. My experience was definitely not at all what some of these horror stories were like.

    Ribeye, Medium. Excellent taste
    Glen W.

    This is my first time at a Wolfgang restaurant, and I was very happy with the food, quality, great and authentic service, and the vibe that the lighting created inside the restaurant. We were a group of five, and everything from the bread that they brought out for us to nibble on while we waited for our cocktails to the Ribeye steak, medium doness tasted very good. Who's ever back there on the grill I commend them for treating the meat with tender love and care. the cocktails were great too, I had two of the spicy margaritas and they were excellent. I definitely recommend this place to folks looking for a good steak, nice vibes and great prices. The sides were pretty big so we chose five sides to share amongst the group.

    Best part of meal was German potatoes and creamed spinach . Porterhouse steak was underwhelming . Interior is beautiful. Why is service so underwhelming ? Expect great service for the prices paid but instead service is better at diners!

    Overpriced restaurant, boring menu and bad quality seafood. Would not recommend unless you want a steak specifically.

    Came here on a beautiful Saturday after getting slammed with a NJ blizzard and this was a great…read moretreat! Got here around 2pm to an empty restaurant so it was nice for my overtired but refuse to nap toddler and my 9 month old daughter who refuses to sit still. Restaurant was very simple with tables along the left side and restrooms on the right. I wouldn't say it's a big place but it's a decent size. Since it was just us, we ordered right away. I got the birria tacos and my husband got the steak enchiladas. Holy birria those tacos were fantastic. The taco shells had just the right amount of crispy softness where it wasn't overly cooked to make it a hard shell. When you bit into it, the juices came out from the other side of my taco and the meted cheese was nice and stringy- if you know what I mean. The meat was cooked perfectly where it wasn't too dry and chewy. I drowned my tacos in the sauce they give you and housed my 3 tacos. It was the perfect amount where I was full after eating but not overly stuffed. My husband loved his steak enchilada. I tried a few bites and I loved the spicy kick to it...so if you're not a spicy eater, I'd skip out on this. It was the type of spice here you know the dish is spicy but it's not overpowering where I feel like my tongue and esophagus is on fire. My husband loved the little kick but was still able to enjoy the meal without wanted to eat a tub of ice cream. He also ordered the mango shake which was absolutely delicious. Super creamy and that mango sweetness was perfect. Our hostess was great- she talked of my daughter and made sure we were ok even though we were the only ones there! I definitely recommend if you're in the area!

    Decided to come here for a random lunch as one of the only taco spots in the area with good reviews…read morehowever, my experience was basic. The tacos weren't as flavorful as I imagine in the barrier sauce needed a lot more flavor in it not to mention they were a bit pricey, but moving forward I'm more aware if I choose to come here again, and I'll probably get something different. Great ambiance and service as well.

We started with wine to match our dinners, the selection is good, nothing great and market priced. The salads were okay, and dressing was too much and drowned the lettuce. The entrees were presented well. The filet ordered medium rare was a fully cooked piece. Oh well, mass produced food on an assembly line kitchen in full view. The planked salmon was well cooked too as picture represents. Server did not ask salmon preparation selection. We each ordered one of the dessert items which are cake or similar in a shot glass with frosting or mousse or some other topping. They were good, again nothing great. No specially prepared sauces for the entrees to make things pop or standout, just basic dinner fare. On a positive note, food was much better than the Longhorn steakhouse chain or similar establishment.
