| - If a tasty and fast lunch is what you crave, you've found your calling at Wolfy's.
Wolfman's has several locations throughout the city, but this on Providence Rd. at the dividing line between the Eastover and Myers Park neighborhoods is a lunchtime favorite for my co-workers and I.
So about the lunch- love the special here. It's your choice of a salad and then a (pretty generous) slice of pizza and it comes with a drink of choice. You could also opt for 2 slices, but I like their salads quite a bit (especially the California, with the walnuts and goat cheese dressed with balsalmic). I believe the also added soup as an option recently too.
Anyway, the lunchtime special includes pizza offerings of cheese and pepperoni and then 2 of their specialty pizzas which change on a rotating basis according to the week day. Personally, I attempt to go on Tuesdays for the "Cheeseburger Cheeseburger" pie. I know, sounds like it ought to be nasty- but it is crazy good. Finely ground beef, cheddar cheese, and a sauce base that is tangy with just a hint of sweet. Yum-o!
Other pizza offerings that are good here- the Thai-style with chicken and peppers and another interesting base sauce to give it some kick. Also the Southwest with the black bean sauce- wowzers!
Service is as fast as you need it to be- unless the place is slammed and then it just comes with the territory. Usually though, we can get in and out of here at lunch faster than most any other sit down spot in and around uptown.
I also like that drinks here are served in some pretty massive sized glasses. One to one-and-a-half of these guys and you've got a gully washer on your hands. Still, it's better than having to hope for refills on any type of frequent basis.
Now the price here is not necessarily budget- but this isn't white table cloth prices, either. With tax, the lunch special comes out to $7 bucks. After tip you're out the door for right at or under $10. Not too bad, especially given the other options nearby.
I also like the ambiance here- long booths line the walls with a few tables down the middle. This all leads to 2 huge hi-def flat screen in the back- one showing sports while the other does news. Then the bar area has several TVs lining the wall, this way you and your lunch companions can watch the same show from wherever you sit. Did I mention they have free wi-fi too?
Not much else I can say- Wolfy's got it down pat for inventive pizza and knows how to work a lunch crowd. I'm a fan.
