Newly opened Wolfgang’s Steakhouse in Central doesn’t stand out from the crowd

As if Hong Kong didn’t have enough steak houses, another one has joined the crowd. Wolfgang’s Steakhouse by Wolfgang Zwiener opened recently on Duddell Street and when we went on the second evening, it was almost full of (mostly male) carnivores.

The restaurant looks like every other steak house – lots of leather, dark wood and a wine cellar, along with Roy Lichtenstein-esque prints of cows.

When we arrived there was just one other table occupied and lots of staff milling around. But by 7pm, several groups had streamed in and things got busy – and noisy – thanks to the low ceiling and hard surfaces.

The menu is pretty straightforward – it’s all on one page. In the bread basket, the onion-filled buns were nice, but skip the sliced baguettes – they were as hard as rocks.
