Oakland Standard. After reading the previous post, I had to jump on and say that BayWolf is one of my favorite restaurants in the Bay Area by far. The food is always delicious and interesting and the service is refined. After 28 years in the same spot, it one of Oakland's standard spots-- a must visit. Lunch is also a great value for terrific food.

Valentine's day rip-off. Ok - so I'm told Valentine's day is the worst day of the year to eat out. We booked the prix fixe meal ($68) and I called ahead to make sure their would be choices for us as we do not eat meat. I was assured we would.

We arrived and found exactly one selection each of the app and entree categories we could get - no choice whatsoever. We ended up with a salad and vegetable crepes. The food was ok, but not stellar.

I complained about the lack of options, and, in good faith, they knocked 30% off the bill. I thought that was fair. But I don't think it would have been worth the $68 sticker price.

Excellent dishes!!. Bay Wolf had some of the tastiest meals I have had in quite a while. Our party of 5 all had seperate dishes and everyone was totally satisfyed. We all shared bites and agreed on the quailty of the food. In fact, we wanted to return the next weekend, but unfortunately the menu was going to be changing the next day. Our experience on the porch was OK, but not great. The seats were not the most comfortable and the heaters actually were a little too warm. Perhaps inside would be a better option to enjoy some great food.
