Greetings, fellow food enthusiasts! I'm thrilled to share my recent culinary escapade to the renowned Wolfmann's Eating House on Sunderland Road in South Shields. After reading so many rave reviews, I couldn't resist a visit, and boy, was it worth the hype! As we stepped into the cozy restaurant, we were instantly charmed by its laid-back ambiance and the groovy tunes playing in the background. The intimate setting, with only six tables, makes booking in advance a must! We noticed a few couples walk in, hoping for a table, but they ended up grabbing seats at the bar. So, word to the wise: book ahead to avoid disappointment! On a chilly evening, the warmth of the restaurant felt like a loving embrace. And although they don't have an alcohol license, the 'bring your own booze' policy is a fun touch. We chose to keep it sober this time, in preparation for the upcoming holiday festivities. Wolfmann's menu, a delightful selection of Asian-inspired dishes, changes weekly, with some specials featured on a board above the bar. You can always sneak a peek at previous menus on their Facebook page to get a taste of what to expect. The friendly staff welcomed us with open arms and promptly took our drink orders while we ogled the mouthwatering menu options. After much debate (and the desire to order everything), I settled on the salt and pepper Tofu with a side of spring rolls. My better half couldn't resist the roast belly pork, accompanied by a generous serving of salt and chilli fries. To our delight, the service was impressively swift, and our food arrived in just 20 minutes! The Tofu was a symphony of flavors and textures, with tender pieces perfectly seasoned and paired with a vibrant mix of fresh greens. The spring rolls were crispy, succulent, and packed with a punch, thanks to the spicy dipping sauce. My wife's roast belly pork was a showstopper, boasting crispy crackling atop melt-in-your-mouth pork, served on a bed of tangy pickled cabbage. The salt and chilli fries were the perfect sidekick, adding a spicy kick and satisfying crunch. In conclusion, our experience at Wolfmann's Eating House was nothing short of spectacular. The combination of a relaxed atmosphere, attentive staff, and, most importantly, divine Asian-inspired dishes make this spot a must-visit in South Shields. Can't wait to return and continue exploring their ever-changing menu! Bon appétit!

Rascal opening times but if you do manage to catch it when it's open then definitely worth popping in. Been for lunch and breakfast before but really need to try the evening menu myself. Asian twist on the dishes and well received as other establishments like this are few and far between in the area. Happy, friendly, attentive service always. £8-£12 for your lunch plus a possible addition of sides may seem on the steep side but worth it as an occasional treat.

Not the best dining experience we’ve had, customer service pretty bad to be honest. We asked the owner which were the starters on the menu and her reply was just look at the price! Ok so we ordered the mussels to share which were absolutely delicious, then I ordered the burger and chips and my husband ordered the venison. My husband’s meal was lovely, however mine was drenched in salt ??♀️ I spoke to the owner and she said the meals come out from the kitchen ready to eat so no need for us to add anything, my husband said surely you wouldn’t cover it in salt without asking the customer first? She said you have the option not to ask for salt?She did offer to change the chips but my hubby had nearly finished his meal so a bit pointless for me to get a fresh plate. The bill was £63 including the wine which was £24 so the price wasn’t too bad to be fair if it was edible. After paying the bill the owner on our way out said sorry about the salt

Food was super tasty and big portions! The lady serving us was very friendly and attentive and the two guys behind the counter were very nice and quick getting food and drinks out. 10/10

The only place like it in South Tyneside. So lucky to have this on my doorstep. The decor and the food are just amazing. So reasonably priced too for the quality of ingredients they clearly use. Love it!

Venison was cooked to perfection. Restaurant wasn't too busy when we got there, probably go a bit later next time as there wasn't much atmosphere.

Loved the "different menu". I had the best Calamari starter I've ever had, slightly spicy yet sweet & sour -absolutely delicious. For the main I chose Ribeye steak and was not disappointed. Will certainly return.

We’re regulars for evening dining, but went for Sunday lunch for the first time today. Both our starters and mains were excellent. I couldn’t fault the food, which is always a little bit different. Can’t wait to have Sunday lunch again.
