Wolfgang Puck Coming to El Paseo

The force behind Spago and Wolfgang Puck Express ventures into casual dining with a new concept.

Celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck will be opening a new restaurant on El Paseo in the near future. 

The restaurant, at 73130 El Paseo, will be one of four test markets for a new concept being called Wolfgang Puck Pizza Bar.  One location is open in Charlotte, NC, with others under construction in Greenboro NC, and San Diego. 

“Wolfgang has always wanted to find a casual-dining concept that reflected his brand of quality dining and hospitality, but at a lower price point, and we think this is it,”  Joe Essa, managing partner of Wolfgang Puck Worldwide said.
