<p>BORACAY — Your summer beach getaway gets a delicious upgrade with the arrival of Wolfgang&#x27;s Steakhouse Grill in Boracay Newcoast. </p><p>The global restaurant brand’s first branch outside of Metro Manila opened to the public last February 29, marking a significant expansion for Wolfgang&#x27;s Steakhouse in the Philippines. </p><p>With a capacity of 65 seats, the restaurant uses stone, wood, and leather to create a relaxed yet still elegant ambiance. Breathtaking views of the white sand beach and crystal-clear waters — including the landmark Keyhole — further elevate the dining experience.</p><p>However, its location is far from Boracay’s famous long beach, which remains the hub of the island’s tourist activities — including dining.</p><p>To remedy that, it launched a shuttle service, wherein guests can just call and a bow-tied Wolfgang staff will fetch them via the restaurant’s own e-vehicle.</p><p>“So they just have to call us and then we can pick you up, back and forth,” Wolfgang’s senior general manager Victor Cordova Jr. told ANCX. “That’s free. There&#x27;s no minimum order. We want to showcase the service that we can offer. So regardless of what you order, burgers or just a drink or just a cocktail, we&#x27;re going to pick you up.”</p><div class="embed-wrap"><figure data-feedback="fb:likes,fb:comments"><img alt="The restaurant officially opened last February 29, 2024 with a private event attended by president and co-founder Peter Zweiner.

Laboracay is around the corner as well. And I think some establishments will be opening very soon as well. The thing is that the location is very important. I mean, this is something that you can&#x27;t get in other locations like having steak and facing the beach,” he said, pointing out the two hotels in the area — Belmont Hotel and Savoy Hotel — a convention facility, as well as condominiums.</p><p>“People who usually go to the beach, after sunbathing, they just go to the hotel and come back for their late lunch. Even dinner as well,” he added.</p><div><strong>Grill concept</strong></div><p>For Boracay, the brand brought its Wolfgang&#x27;s Steakhouse Grill concept that offers a wider menu that goes beyond classic steakhouse fare with a variety of grilled specialties.</p><p>Although Wolfgang’s also serves seafood like its famous crab cakes and fresh oysters, Cordova said they also want to highlight dishes that suggest a more beach vibe given the location.</p><div class="embed-wrap"><figure data-feedback="fb:likes,fb:comments"><img alt="The Ceviche Platter.

But the final say in terms of the menu, it has to go through Mr. Peter,” Cordova said.</p><p>The Ceviche Platter consists of yellowfin tuna, red snapper and sea scallops, which can be shared as a refreshing starter or to go with a cold beer or cocktails.</p><div class="embed-wrap"><figure data-feedback="fb:likes,fb:comments"><img alt="Beach Tacos.

Handout</figcaption></figure></div><p>Cordova said the restaurant has a temperature-controlled room for the meat, which is essential given the more intense temperatures in Boracay.</p><p>What is more crucial is inventory management as ingredients have to be flown in, he stressed.</p><p>Now that Wolfgang’s Boracay is up and running, the steakhouse brand is already looking at other locations outside the metro for its expansion.</p><p>Cordova mentioned that a restaurant in Cebu is set to open within the year at Mactan Newtown.</p><p>Wolfgang’s is also looking at opening in Iloilo and Davao. </p>

Wolfgang's Steakhouse opened its first branch outside of Metro Manila to the public last February 29 at Boracay Newcoast.
