"Kensington’s Laser Wolf isn’t just one of our favorites for a Mediterranean feast—it’s one of the top restaurants in the neighborhood, period. The laidback Israeli grill is great for groups, date night, or eating by yourself at the bar, thanks to the all-you-can-eat salatim, and other shareables, like chicken skewers and juicy tuna covered in a green chili sauce. Bottom line—everything they put to the flame here is exceptional. The bill can stack up, so you’ll want to be strategic about when you come for a celebratory, pineapple rum-heavy meal (especially since there’s nothing on the menu you’ll say no to). Be sure to make a reservation ahead of time." - alison kessler, candis mclean

"From the neon signs to the trendy industrial space playing Top 40 music, Laser Wolf is like Zahav’s rebellious little sister. The casual Kensington Israeli grill is from the same team as Zahav, but the ordering model is different. Here, you choose your grilled main and then automatically get bombarded with salatim, pita, dips, and soft serve for dessert. It's just as good for vegetarians as it is for people who eat meat." - candis mclean
"In 2020, acclaimed chef Mike Solomonov and restaurateur Steve Cook opened Laser Wolf, an Israeli skewer house in Old Kensington. Among its “from the grill” options are chicken and beef shishliks, and a barbecue short rib and Romanian beef kebab (which is made for two)." - George Banks-Weston
