Bad scheduling/hosting, good bartenders, Luger's-style service and STEAK – This is a small restaurant. They clearly overbook reservations - even for 7pm. Table for 4 last night took 1 hour to be seated - after checking with the overwhelmed hostess multiple times. Bar tabs are not small -- and so perhaps this is a tactic by the restaurant to drive revenues?? Wolfgang was actually there and we met him. Nice guy, but clearly not in control of the operation. Service was very much in the Luger's style -- fast, surly, but professi... read more

Great Steak, Great Waiters, poorly run, too noisy – This is where you go if you can't get a reservation or don't want to go to Brooklyn to eat at Peter Luger's. The steak is excellent. The wait staff was good, but we arrived at the Park Ave location on time for a 7:00 reservation for a birthday dinner and were not seated until 7:54 with barely an apology. I also felt like unless you were a regular, you didn't merit their attention. Another party with a reservation walked out after waiting longer than we had been there. Thoug... read more

the place...perfect – One of the best steaks ever, flavorful and sizzing. Great service, great sides...ambiance is casual yet very service oriented. In fact, everything was exceptional... even the company.

Horrid service, useless hostess, and incompetent maitre'd! – 45 minute wait with reservation! I had a 7pm reservation for which I arrived on time with my entire party. The hostess would not check us in on time unless I presented everyone in front of her. At that point, I waited another 15 minutes when upon asking the hostess when the table would be ready, she says she doesn't know - her only job is to check people in. She continued to tell people to ask the maitre'd who was very hard to get a hold of. After straining to obta... read more

Best lunch in midtown – First off, Wolfgang's boasts the City's best business lunch with a pre-fixe menu under $30 that could feed Rosanna Scotto's fat arss. Furthermore, I'm a proud New Yorker and unfortunately, a personal acquanitance of jsmilgin, the author of the previous review. I've known this man for many years and I can attest that he is no connoiseur. JS, when was the last time you were at Luger's? My guess is 2000 when you made bail! Quit writing about things you know nothing about - we mock what we do not understa... read more

Another Ordinary Steakhouse – Had dinner at Wolfgang's last night (New Year's eve 2006) and am sorry to report that "Wolfy" brought the same brusque service and over-rated meat with him from Peter Lugar's. I have been to Lugar's many times (first time was in 1987) and finally gave up on the "best steak house in the USA" because of the lousy service (which is often rude) and the low quality of their "steak for two".......which is OK on a good evening and almost inedible on a bad one. The filet mignon I had last night at Wolfg... read more

Don't subject yourself to this misery...This is New York, the options are endless, avoid the poor customer service served up here. – The Hostess was the nastiest person. She appeared bothered that we were there and completely unprofessional. When I went to ask he a question, she replied (before I even spoke) "Listen, I already told you..." as if she anticipated what I was going to ask. I left. It appeared they did not care about their customers and really could due without us being there. I prefer to spend my money where peo... read more

Waste of Time – Fact:s We made a reservation 2 weeks ahead of time for 9 pm (party of 2). The hostess told us to have a drink and that our table would be ready in 15 minutes. We checked in with her at 9:15, 9:30 and 9:45. Each time, our table was to be ready in 15 minutes. We left. Question: What is the point in making a reservation if they do not bother to hold it (anyone else remember that Seinfeld episode?). Experience: Been to numerous restaurants and steakhouses in Manhattan and have never had such an experience. Recomm... read more

really good steak, cool interior – I heard that this place was initially a private subway stop for one of the Vanderbilt's and it looks like it. Steak would be a good enough reason to come here, but they have the most food-gasmic thick bacon strips i've ever had.
