Step into The Wolves, a stylish cocktail haven steeped in antique charm, where expertly crafted drinks and delectable French-American bites create an enchanting escape.
"The Wolves is a fancy cocktail bar where bartenders use fire, smoke, and spray bottles to make drinks. The wood-and-leather-covered space is dark and romantic, and they don’t allow any standing room, so expect to put your name down and wait if you come at a busier time. If you get excited about specialty cocktail menus involving milk clarification and date bourbon, make this your new spot. As for food, expect some very French dishes like escargot, pommes frites, and ratatouille on the menu for when you get hungry. " - brant cox, nikko duren, sylvio martins
"While most people come to The Wolves to drink well-made cocktails and gawk at the stained glass ceiling, there’s another reason to head to this dimly lit, Beaux-Arts drinking hole downtown: the burger. Topped with herb butter, sherry caramelized onions, white wine sauce, and comte cheese, this French beauty is not your average bar burger. It’s a rich, gooey stand-out that happens to be exactly what you need in your stomach after too many absinthe cocktails. " - brant cox, garrett snyder, nikko duren
"After going dark for over a year, The Wolves in Downtown LA has reopened. As reported by Eater LA, the Parisian-style cocktail bar has kept most of the interior the same (think dark and moody with lots of cast-iron, like the movie Hugo), but completely flipped the menu. Now, there’s a bunch of very French dishes like sauteed duck hearts, pommes frites, and ratatouille, plus an extensive specialty cocktail menu." - Kat Hong
"It looks like the Wolves in Downtown, which was awarded best design by Eater LA in 2018, will be reopening on November 12:" - Matthew Kang
"Last year’s most remarkable interior design went to The Wolves, and bartender Kevin Lee designed a menu that reflected the creativity of its ambience." - Matthew Kang
