Israeli skewer house with stunning Manhattan skyline views [1] & an unlimited salatim assortment [2]. Reservations are tough but worth it!
Laser Wolf, located atop The Hoxton hotel in Williamsburg, offers a vibrant dining experience with panoramic Manhattan skyline views from its open-air terrace [1]. The menu features a variety of Israeli-inspired dishes, starting with an unlimited salatim assortment, followed by grilled skewers like lamb kofta, and concluding with brown sugar soft-serve ice cream [2]. It's a popular spot, making reservations difficult to secure, but the lively atmosphere and delicious food are considered worth the effort [3].
Laser Wolf offers an Israeli-inspired menu, renowned for its unlimited salatim (small salads and dips) which many consider the highlight of the meal [1]. The grilled skewers, such as lamb kofta, are also highly recommended, as is the brown sugar soft-serve ice cream for dessert [2]. While many dishes, including vegetarian options like eggplant and cauliflower, are praised, some diners have found certain items, like the hummus, to be too bitter, and noted that the food may not suit very picky eaters [3].
"The unlimited Salatim platter, featuring a variety of small salads and dips, is highly recommended and considered a must-try aspect of the meal. Grilled skewers, particularly the lamb kofta, and the brown sugar soft-serve ice cream are also frequently praised."
Customers generally praise Laser Wolf for its excellent food and great views, often recommending it for groups and out-of-towners [1]. However, some find it can be noisy and hectic, with variable service, and some negative experiences have been reported regarding food quality and service more recently [2].
