I so wanted to like this place - pricing is fair for lunch. But I'm confused by all the five stars, the food is mediocre, I was hungry and I didn't finish either of my dish (octopus and the pasta with duck). Might come again for a cocktail but not food.Adding one star for the good service.

One of my favorite spots in the city, everything is great here. From the bread and butter to the gnocchi, and ofcourse the view and ambiance. I have been here 3 times and have never been disappointed.
Still love this place since the pandemicStill great staff and service (my home away from home)Still stylish and chill (not pretentious)BUT this recent visit was a bit disappointing … the Little Gems Salad did not have little gems lettuce but just a brunch of tired looking, ordinary romaine lettuce chopped in pieces … thankfully all other dishes were deliciousWe still had a great time!Hope it was just a fluke, lettuce shortage or something ?♀️

Out of necessity, our foursome had to eat early (5:00 reservation) before a Carnegie concert that started at 7pm. Wolf is close by on the second floor of Nordstroms. They have a happy hour menu that fit our needs perfectly. The tagliolini caccia pepe was tasty, if a bit heavy, and three of us really enjoyed the burger and fries. Calm atmosphere, good service and the Happy Hour menu makes dinner quite affordable. We'll be back!

It was my second visit to Wolf recently, and I genuinely believe that it is a hidden gem in many senses:) The place has a nice casual ambiance, but the food is fancy and delicious.

Close to Jazz at Lincoln Center, reasonable prices, high quality. Likely to become our pre-concert go-to dinner place. We all ended up ordering the from Restaurant Week menu. Good variety of choices, and all we tried were delicious: octopus, salad, pork belly appetisers; cod and not-ravioli entres; semolina cake, hot chocolate desserts. No leftovers. Service was professional and friendly. He asked if we needed to get to a show (we did) and made sure we were out on time.

I would like to know the restaurant if the manager hadn’t recommended other neighborhood restaurants for different menus either than theirs. It was really impolite, disrespectful, for me it was the worst treatment.

Absolutely excellent! We enjoyed the restaurant week special which was the roasted chicken entree and radicchio salad to start. Both were delicious. Perfectly prepared. We also had the warm bread which was a wonderful treat and the cheese cake to finish the meal. Service was outstanding and food was exceptional. We will go back. We were very surprised to find such a delicious meal in a retail store!

The food was delicious, the service was standard for a nice establishment, but the atmosphere was simply not for me. You're eating in a department store. I prefer dimly lit restaurants with moody decor.
One of the loveliest places in Manhattan and shhhh I hope no one finds out! I recommend a reservation. The service was lovely, one of the prettiest places to watch the new snow falling from the inside, and the food was really really delicious.... Though the pasta with guanciale was quite spicy. I like spicy food but if you don't, then it's good to know.

Real top notch food here. An explosion of flavors in your mouth. Great fine dining at a reasonable price. The seafood here is great. The food is very rich though. It really needs to be eaten slowly. Beautiful restaurant. Great open kitchen. The staff is super friendly.Wheelchair accessibility: They have a wheelchair lift although the bar is too high and the walkway is a bit narrow

From our arrival thru our departure, every aspect of our visit was top notch. The greeting, service, description of specials, cocktails, wine, small plates and entrees were spectacular.

I found a hair in my food and want even offered the plate as a courtesy. We asked if the octopus was spicy and we were told it wasn't, when in fact, it was. I understand it was NYE but people were raging to go home and our service was sub par.

Completely unacceptable 50 minute delay in getting our food which was then the wrong dish. Then we were told it hadn’t been made yet. Our server was slicing bread and carrying around piles of dishes. Shocked that they actually made us pay for what we ordered. Gave cash and walked out. The crudo was decent but the place has serious issues. Really terrible experience.
