The grand opening of Wolfnights newest location is finally open! For those who don’t know Wolfnights is a casual eatery known for its incredible wraps. Founded back in 2011 by Itai Afek, the brand has been fortunate to achieve a great deal of success in its niche market. The initial vision for this enterprise was the notion of the perfect bite. Though this concept often eludes many chefs, the team at Wolfnights seeks to achieve this honorable goal by combining flavors and gourmet ingredients in their signature wraps.
Though wraps are common enough to be included in a basic bag lunch, Wolfnight wraps are a true culinary experience, fusing every day with gourmet. Each wrap is carefully crafted and constructed with quality ingredients creating an intense flavor bomb. We dropped by their new outpost to experience the wraps for ourselves and were not disappointed. The wraps offer a big hearty meal of fresh vegetables and proteins that are filling and portable. One of our favorite wraps is known as the Dire Wolf, like all the wraps on the menu, it is made with a base of fresh mixed greens. For this wrap the greens are topped with a generous portion of crispy fried chicken, lamb bacon, melted cheddar, green papaya slaw, and spicy pickled peppers, all held together in a ginger dough wrap. For a bonus, we smothered each bite in creamy Wolf Ketchup their signature sauce. The chicken was thick and juicy and the lamb bacon was sensational. The peppers added a hint of spiciness that didn’t overwhelm the other ingredients and the fresh greens provided a satisfying crunch. We also recommend the Carnivores Delight, a healthier more sophisticated option for burger lovers. This wrap features tender grilled steak, a fried egg, sumac onions pickles, and a fragrant mustard horseradish sauce, nestled in a date pumpkin seed wrap.
There are about a dozen unique wraps to choose from, and each one can be converted into a bowl if preferred. Wraps can be enjoyed with various sides, including salad, tater tots, and our favorite, steak fries. Pro tip: Make sure to get a little extra Wolf Ketchup for dipping!
