Wolfnights® — Restaurant in New York

I Highly Recommend!

Wolfnights has completely ruined any chances of me believing that Chipotle or any store like Chipotle can make a good wrap. Wolfnights has set the bar so high that like the Hayabusa, they're in their own league. These guys are the standard. I walked up in that place with friends after trying it the night before and i bought two wraps to go, aside from the one i ate at the store. I literally lived the "Continental Breakfast" skit from the Key and Peele comedy show. That was literally me at wolfnights.

So yeah folks, chains like Taco Bell, Chipotle, Dos Toros, can pack their bags and close up shop. With their bland dusty wraps and overpriced burrito and bowls. Or their Alpo dog food grade F meat.

The minute New Yorkers get slapped with the experience i had at wolnights. I know the masses are going to agree.

Here is the break down. THE DOUGH: Freshly made to order cooked from raw to amazing infront of the customer. Wolnights has combined flavors like tumeric, ginger, rosemary into a gourmet styled dough. Like a hybrid mix between a wrap and a freshly plucked naan bread; only softer and the flavor in the dough is a complete game changer.

THE TOPPINGS: Fresh toppings of veggies, meats such as beef, fried chicken, an assortment of pickled toppings and crunchy toppings go designated into a specific flavored wrap and when these toppings are stacked and drizzled down with their sauces. You get your wrap of choice. My fisrt wrap was The Beast. It was the one that was recommended to me and the one that set me down the crazed path of trying everything on their menu. It was a flavor bomb. The chewy dough enhanced the tangy, the sweet, the crunchy and the savory that made the wrap. That experience was unlike anything i have had. Hands down best wrap in my entire life. On my momma that was straight BUSSIN!

To my amazement i went back the following evening with friends to prove to them of the ride The Beast took my tastebuds through. As skeptical as they were i believe they had the same experience with The Beast wrap and concluded that they were the best wrap they've ever had. As they were awestrucked with the beast wrap, I went i to town on the DireWolf and a Brothers Grimm Wrap. They had a completely different dough from eachother. And the toppings were different in each. Making them a completely different burst of flavor for each one. I will be going back to Wolfnights they have a permanent customer in me. Working 1 mile from the location i will earn my salt every time i walk there and back. Not bad for a meal that beats everything like it anywhere else. Both in flavor...

The purpose of this review is not to hate or harm this restaurant in any way, shape, or form. That being said, I hope you take this review as an informative review.

Atmosphere: This place is roomy enough to move around. Clean for the most part. The decor is okay, compared to what it used to look before, they haven't changed much.

Service: Honestly, service can vary. Sometimes, it would be exceptional or just acceptable.

Food: Having ordered a couple of times here, I can conclude that their food is pretty good. I mean, there can be a couple of small things that can certainly not be to everyone's liking, but for the most part, their food is pretty good. This last time I ordered the Howling Wrap, which personally is enough for a quick bite since it is filling. I like the way they make their doughs, right on the spot. However, if you wait a bit long to eat it, the dough could turn as if it is uncooked making it less flavorful. There are no issues with the rest of ingredients. Their sauces are on point as well.

Prices: This is another thing that would not be to everyone's liking. Yes, their prices are high. However, I acknowledge their location and rent is not cheap there. I also acknowledge that their food is tasty. Therefore, their food's quality and flavors are worth paying what they cost. (If they raise their prices a couple of bucks more, then it would...

Not a bad place to grab a bite whatsoever! However, they are a bit pricey in my opinion ($14 to $17, depending on the wrap). This is the main reason why I get food from here every once in a blue moon, like when they offer the buy one get one free special. That's when I really take advantage. The unique seating area is charming, though limited, and don't get me wrong, the wraps that I've tried so far were delicious! They're just not $14 - $17 delicious lol.

The staff here are friendly and seem cool. They make the wraps right in front of you and it’s quite a cool process to watch. Each wrap is made from a homemade dough, heated on a hot iron dome and then filled with fresh and one of a kind ingredients. All of the wraps are rich with antioxidants and made with natural ingredients.

My favorites:

Dire Wolf (fried chicken wrapped in ginger dough, lamb bacon, melted cheddar, green papaya slaw, spicy pickled shika peppers, wolf ketchup)

The Beast (grilled steak wrapped in turmeric dough, bbq crunch, blue cheese, marinated green olives, cilantro, red chili mayo)

They have opened several locations over the years since I first tried them. Because of their unique wrap concept I can understand why. There's definitely a niche for them in this super tough NYC...
