This journey began in defense of the maker, those that bring to light from darkness, an idea. Our inspiration comes from memory, of travels we’ve taken - it is the thread that helps us bind our creation. Wolf’s is the laboratory where inspiration turns to creation, creation is stitched into a form that when examined takes guests on the creators' journey of exploration. But the quest to create comes not for the supplication of an audience, but for the continual introspective pursuit of pushing the boundaries of what we know as possible.

The restaurant week menu items weren’t as good as their regular menu items. The ceviche was rubbery and overcooked, the empanadas were still cold in the middle the first time they came out, the entrees were okay but nothing special. I have been there before and their regular menu was delicious. I wish they had showcased regular menu items instead of offering things off-menu.
