Steakhouse

Wolfgang's Steakhouse by Wolfgang Zwiener

Murray Hill, Manhattan, NY 📍 Maps

Wolfgang's Steakhouse, founded by former Peter Luger headwaiter Wolfgang Zwiener, brings a classic New York steakhouse experience to Manhattan. The flagship Park Avenue location, situated in the former Vanderbilt Hotel dining room, boasts stunning Guastavino-designed vaulted ceilings with exquisite blue and white tiles, creating a Golden Age atmosphere. It's a place that evokes old-world charm, with dark wood paneling and leather booths, perfect for a celebratory meal or a serious steak craving.

★ The Legend
Porterhouse For Two Or More
This USDA Prime Black Angus beef is dry-aged on-site for 28 to 32 days, then cooked on a 1600º grill to achieve a perfectly charred exterior and a buttery-tender, juicy interior. It's served sizzling in butter on a tilted platter, a nod to Zwiener's Peter Luger roots, allowing the meat to baste in its own juices.
◆ Fan Favorite
Sizzling Canadian Bacon
This extra-thick cut of Canadian bacon is served sizzling, offering a rich, smoky flavor that many regulars describe as tasting more like smoked ham than traditional bacon. It's a substantial appetizer that's often cited as a must-order to kick off the meal.
● Chef's Pick
Cheesecake
Wolfgang Zwiener himself ensured the dessert menu upheld the same high standards as the steaks. The cheesecake, often sourced from Junior's in Brooklyn, is a classic New York-style dessert that's light, moist, and served with homemade 'Schlag' (whipped cream).
◇ Hidden Gem
Creamed Spinach
While many focus on the steak, regulars know not to skip this classic side. It's a rich, creamy accompaniment that perfectly balances the robust flavors of the dry-aged beef, often overlooked by first-timers but consistently praised by those in the know.
Insider Tip

First-timers often get caught up in the main event, but don't overlook the appetizers and sides. Order the Sizzling Canadian Bacon to start, and make sure to get the German Potatoes alongside your steak. They're baked to a crisp with fried onions and offer a fantastic textural contrast to the rich, tender beef.
