    This is our favorite restaurant in Highlands. We have been part time residents for 20 years and Wolfgang's is exceptional. The food is always consistently the best, the service is unparalleled in the area and the staff (especially Jackie the manager, D'Arcy the sommelier and Bryan our favorite server) are amazing. The owner, Wolfgang, is much beloved and respected by all of us in Highlands. We highly recommend Wolfgang's to all of our friends.
