Horrible Service: Enough to detract from the food

by shooter46 at Citysearch

I had a reservation for 8:30 on a saturday. Everyone in our party arrived at 8:40. We weren't seated until after 9:30. The hostess and the manager barely even aknowledged our wait. While the food was good, I wouldn't come back here because of the service.

not as good as lugers, but convenient for a steak fix

i used to be a regular at lugers (went at least once a month). wolfgang's is basically an exact knockoff, though not quite as good. that means you get the brusque service, which is a lugers' hallmark. that being said, we always get great service at wolfgang's b/c we know the system ... order the bacon and tomato and onion for appetizers, steak for 2, medium rare (no matter how many people you have), cottage fries, creamed spinach, and then the hot fudge sundae w/extra schlag. i love that they are in my neighborhood and accept credit cards ... we waited about 20 min past our reservation last nite, which wasn't too bad (btw, you usually have to wait at lugers, too, unless you're a regular). of course, it helps to order a couple bottles of expensive wine, too.

• Pros: very good steaks and sides (esp the bacon)
• Cons: the wait, even with a reservation

Steak for 2 3 and 4

by Steak Eater only at Citysearch

It's not the first time we dine here. We've been coming to wolfgangs for a little bit over a year now and can't get enough of it!!!. We were there last night. The place was jamming there was no sign of a recession here. We waited a couple of minutes since the Host seated us promptly. And the the party started. This is a great place to feel a real NY steakhouse experience.The waiters passing by with the amazing smell of sizzling steak.... UHMM couldn't wait.so we let our waiter order the usual for us:seafood,bacon and tomato and onions with roquefort cheese on the side. let me say that this combination is out of this world! We finished all in no time. All of a sudden our waiters cleaned up our table mess and set us up for the good stuff.Steak for the table all of us ordered medrare except for my 2 secretaries they wanted well done. It all came out was perfectly cooked, all sizzling and buttery as always(even the well done steak) They always take care of us.The sides were the perfect match. They brought us the german potatoes,creamed spinach and onion rings(really crispy). We then had the dessert"Fantasy" wich is a selection of the desserts along with fresh fuit and the wonderful SCHLAG. Wow It was an amazing time and hope to be back tomorrow with a party of 12 people. They may be booked but they'll acomodate us for sure,they always do. Thanks guys for making this business deal dinner a total pleasure as always!!!!!!!!!!

You'll be seeing us more often now with the holiday season aproaching.

• Pros: Super sizes
• Cons: little wait but completely worth it
