First time visiting. Some of the best food we have ever eaten. Every dish full of flavor and perfectly seasoned. Service was impeccable. We had a misshap with some wine, luckly staff was stand close and saw it happen, had extra napkins close and under a minute someone was there with soda water, napkins and a Tide pen. We wer celebrating our anniversary, atmosphere was romantic but relaxed. Everyone added to the very cool vibe, they appreciated we chose to share our special event with them. This place is a Highly recommend food experience. We will be back.
honestly a little disappointed in the food — although it looked impressive, the flavoring was just hit or miss.
food:
salatim always looks so impressive — 11 spread options so you have to like at least one, right?! pita was cooked well, pillowy and a great vehicle for the dips.
the main we got were the:
- swordfish skewer ($49) 3/5 tender, fun chewy kind of rubbery texture which was new. minimal flavor.
- lamb rack ($124) 4/5 delicious! def the best, cooked very well and seasoned well!
- hanger steak ($122) 3/5 anna hated the bbq-like sauce it came with but I thought it was ok. cooked alright, a bit chewy and aside from the sauce drench the flavor was minimal too.
they gave us free fries for my birthday! very crispy, airy. 4/5!
soft serve was good, not memorable
service: excellent! erik was amazing 5/5
atmosphere: it was beautiful! a fun, upscale but still casual place.

Great dinner experience here. The salitim is like korean banchan, so many options and huge variety with 2 hummus! The haloumi and tuna apps were really good. Never had tuna like that before. We got the ribeye and lamb chops for two. The flavor of both was really good, but i thought both meats were a bit tough and chewy. The tahini ice cream with chocolate was soooo good and they come at the end with togo boxes which was a nice touch.

I celebrated my birthday at Laser Wolf for the second time, and once again they exceeded every expectation. This has officially become one of my favorite birthday traditions if we are home in Philly, because they never disappoint.
A huge thank you to Brendan at the chef’s counter, who made the entire evening feel incredibly special from start to finish. His warmth, attention to detail, and genuine hospitality made us feel like honored guests rather than just another reservation. Watching the chefs work while enjoying such an amazing meal made the experience even more memorable.
The food was absolutely outstanding—as always. Every dish was beautifully prepared, full of flavor, and served with care. The atmosphere is energetic, fun, and perfect for celebrating a special occasion.
If you’re looking for an unforgettable dining experience in Philadelphia, especially for a celebration, Laser Wolf is the place to go. Thank you to Brendan and the entire team for making my birthday so memorable. I can’t wait to come back for birthday number three!

To the amazing staff at Laser Wolf, we want to express our sincere gratitude! Today, we celebrated Rebecca’s promotion at Tastemade, and while we are enjoying a day off from caring for our three-year-old, we have to thank Grandma for all her help to make this day possible.
From the moment we stepped inside and left, we had an unforgettable experience. We were warmly welcomed by the friendly staff at the front, guided through a delightful culinary journey while sitting at the chef’s counter, and delighted by the delicious food we had been craving. Every team member we spoke with was a pleasure to chat with. Now, let us give a huge shoutout to our amazing server, Molly. Molly was not just our server; she was the captain of our culinary adventure. Molly truly wowed us. She was delightful to talk to, learn from, and enjoy a meal with as she expertly managed everything.
Thank you for a wonderful night out, a much-needed escape. We’re already looking forward to our next visit to Philly!
