Seems like they closed this location down. It’s been gated and shut down the past several days during business hours. It’s a shame, but they’ve also had a steep decline in quality of food unfortunately. When Wolfie’s first opened this location everything was so bomb. Over the past year it’s been inconsistent and really mediocre. Pretty disappointing. Thanks for the good times though we’ll miss you Wolfies

Yenam was awesome but I asked Monique for the bathroom and she was extremely rude told me they were broken and could go to the park or wherever.
She said it so rude.
We had also asked for drinks. I literally told her nicely that it was our first time here and she just cut me off and walked away from a party of 7. The gentleman Yenam was attentive. We all felt the same about Monique's service.

This is some of the most satisfying vegan fried chicken I've ever had. I'm to the point of preferring their vegan friend chicken to the real thing as crazy as that sounds

Cmon! DONT ORDER IF YOU THINK ITS GONNA LOOK LIKE THE PICTURES. I used to order from here all the time and not only does my picture not match what they show on the order, it also is completely different from what I used to eat. I really either want a full refund or to be given what I ordered. There’s no crunch no flavor. It’s like I’m eating those frozen chicken nuggets when I was a kid. I don’t let things get to me much but cmon! This is absolute trash.

Wolfie's has a lovely outside seating area out back.great for large parties, and many tvs showing sports.we've had their burgers and chicken fingers.everything so far has been delicious.it even travels well, if doing a to-go order.

The food is…. Not very good. People are super awesome! Great space too.

The sour beer “cool dood cucumber sour” is possibly the worst drink I’ve had. It’s worse than digested food coming back up after a night of drinking. If you detest someone bring this beer to their party. That is not harsh description, only true.

Again, great service, great people.

DISCLAIMER: THIS HAS TO DO WITH THEIR FOOD TRUCK. I CANNOT SPEAK FOR THE ACTUAL PHYSICAL LOCATION.

I'm attending a large festival in CA. My gf cannot eat most meats for medical reasons. So, it was nice to see a vegan place that could accommodate us both. I know that festival food is expensive. But christ, was this place expensive. I could let that go if the food and service were good. The service was.serviceable at best. The food was subpar.

However, these are not sins. The sin Wolfie's committed was not giving us the food we paid for. At a festival, you kinda have to get out of the way after you get your food. Food trucks are aware of this. Being efficient and professional is why I'd be willing to pay so much. We paid for two chicken tender baskets. After tax and tip, this was $65 whole, American dollars. When we found a suitable spot to sit after wading through crowds of people, we discovered that we were missing 4/6 tenders. They come with three each, so.that doesn't even make sense.

TL;DR
Pros:
- Vegan option at a venue

Cons:
- Devilishly expensive
- Weird customer service
- Mediocre food
- Limited choices
- Messed up our order in the most illogical way possible

Expected real chicken given the name. Nowhere on the food truck or menu did it say vegan. We feel scammed. Taste was bad and only after looking at the box they give you AFTER you pay does it say in real small print on a busy background 100% plant based. We had it at a food truck

My taco salad was soggy. The breaded of the chicken sandwich was falling off.

There was a fight on the TV, people was drunk doing way to much.

Atmosphere was bad. Me and my wife felt so uncomfortable.

The first time I went 3 years ago the food was amazing. However, since then the food went downhill. The chicken sandwich used to be huge, breaded and smothered in sauce. Now it's a flat dry patty. Same with tenders unfortunately. The fries taste old and coleslaw taste like nothing. Please let me know if there's a really good vegan chicken place.

My last two dining experiences were poor to mediocre in terms of customer service. I opted to sit on the patio and asked if I needed a number for my table. The cashier indicated she would bring the food out to me. It was a customer who came to the patio and asked if I had the Seoul chicken sandwich and not the staff. Apparently there were calls for my order and it was taken back to the kitchen. Unfortunately by the time I received my order it was cold. On tonight, the cashier’s lack of customer service demonstrated she obviously did not want to be there. Her communication was minimum. She did not greet us when we approached the counter. We dined in and she just placed the food on the table without commenting. Also the 5-piece chicken tenders I received were so small, showed evidence the grease needed cleaning, and definitely not worth $20. Moreover, there was never a thank you or a smile. I felt bad because I actually introduced a friend to Wolfie’s and they commented on the poor customer service. The Wolfie’s I used to know was know for excellent customer service and food.

Mixed review. Always get great service eating in, but I don't recommend takeout. My onion rings were smashed (like literally still crispy but smashed despite having plenty of room in the box), my sauces were all wrong, and my drinks were only two thirds full for some reason. I'm considering going back to retrieve the tip I left in the jar. I should have taken a look before leaving. Do not order takeout!

My bf was very upset when he realized he’d been eating non-meat chicken without even realizing it wasn’t chicken. Neither of us realized for a good while. And he liked it. And i loved it! This place is good! Delicious. It is really good this place.

Delicious! Not being a vegan myself I could not tell the difference. The Memphis Chicken was tasty and my friends said the same about the Seoul and Nashville sandwiches. The shoestring fries yummy. The "froze"was so good. I enjoyed it and will return!
Met the owner at the Pallidium what a super nice guy and the staff was just as nice.

The tenders are better than chicken! Addicted to the spice it really hits a spot, I choose coleslaw reduce the calories but get the fries extra they are fresh and tasty.

Had this at Coachella and it was the most disgusting food that I’ve ever had. I got the chicken strips and it was very stale, ice cold and hard as a rock. The sauce that was given had a dark film over it as if it was left sitting out overnight. Which I’m pretty sure is the case since I tried this on day 2. I’m 100% sure I was served day old food. The experience was so bad I wouldn’t even get this outside of Coachella. Even the fries were stale. How do you mess up on fries? !

I love plant-based meat so I’ve been really looking forward to trying Wolfies. It’s easy to miss when driving by and parking can be a little difficult in this area depending on the time of day, but the wait or walk is worth it. They have a ton of tables inside and out but today I just chose to do takeout.

We chose the Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich, and we also got an Impossible Burger to try as well. The “chicken” was very good and really does taste almost just like real chicken. The impossible burger was also great although Monty’s is still my all-time favorite.

I would definitely recommend to any fan of plant-based food or honestly anyone willing to try something new. It’s hard to see how anyone would not like any of these dishes. I plan to be back in the future.

Very creative vegan fried chicken dishes. The chicken alone is alright but when they’re in ANY of their loaded fries it’s amazing!

Stumbled upon this scrumptious shop this evening. Their Buffalo chicken sandwich is sooooooo amazing! 10/10.
