"An effortlessly charming wine bar and bistro highlighted as essential to San Diego, with a must-try sweet corn and piñon soup singled out as a signature dish." - Kelly Bone
"Nestled amid the Craftsman-style homes of Mission Hills is this snug wine bar and cafe that’s become a neighborhood favorite and popular date-night spot. The European bistro feel is punctuated with New Mexican artwork. The cuisine blends European, New Mexican, Hispanic, and Native American influences into its inspired cuisine, which informs the tapas-style menu from executive chef Carmine Lopez that includes sweet corn and piñon soup, ground lamb braised with New Mexican spices, and Hatch chile chocolate pot de creme. Must-try dishes: Sweet corn and piñon soup, ground lamb braised with New Mexican spices, Hatch chile chocolate pot de creme." - Candice Woo
"Among the quiet streets and craftsman houses of Mission Hills is the tiny-but-mighty Wolf in the Woods, a New Mexican restaurant with signature Southwestern charm. Ristras of dried chiles dangle like feather boas, while the combination of twig arrangements and lit candles makes us briefly consider (and then disregard) the fire hazard of it all. With a menu full of tomato, corn, and hatch chile, the New Mexican influence isn’t relegated to the decor. Their sweet corn and piñon soup is a non-negotiable—imagine the best cornbread of your life reincarnated as a liquid. The yellowtail aguachile is fresh and bright and the seared prime beef filet tataki is doused in blood orange and soy, giving it an unexpected subtle sweetness." - candice woo, cora lee, candice woo, cora lee, candice woo, candice woo, candice woo, cora lee, cora lee, candice woo, candice woo, cora lee, candice woo, cora lee, candice woo, candice woo, cora lee, candice woo, candice woo, candice woo, cora lee, candice woo, cora lee, candice woo, candice woo, cora lee, team infatuation

"Tucked into historic Mission Hills, Wolf in the Woods brings fresh energy to the neighborhood. Among the standout dishes in the Farmer’s Giving section of the menu is the unassuming yet exceptional Brussels sprout salad (along with the must-order sweet corn and piñon soup). This shareable bowl features finely shaved Brussels sprouts and crunchy fennel, balanced by the sharp bite of red onion and tossed in a creamy cashew dressing. It’s finished with crushed curry cashews, chives, and, ideally, a glass of Spanish wine." - Kelly Bone
