NEW YORK, Oct. 11, 2016

Wolfgang's Steakhouse is committed to providing an extraordinary culinary experience for diners.  Zagat ranked Wolfgang's as "top contender" amongst New York City's steakhouses.

"Wolfgang's is an exciting addition to the rapidly evolving Times Square South neighborhood, and will provide another attraction not just for the growing office population, but also for the tourists who increasingly walk between Times and Herald Squares," said Thomas P. Durels, Executive Vice President and Director of Leasing and Operations for ESRT.  "We continue to bring a mix of shops and dining to the 30 million sq. ft. Times Square South submarket, where ESRT is the largest landlord." 

Cosmo Montemurro of Murro Realty LLC represented Wolfgang's Steakhouse in the lease negotiations.  Fred Posniak and Shanae Ursini represented ESRT in the transaction.
