About us
Mother Wolf honors Rome’s mythological origin story of Remus, Romulus and the Lupa Capitolina. With Rome as the singular inspiration for Mother Wolf, Chef Evan Funke’s rich and soulful cooking echoes themes of shepherds, popes, farmers and artisans with wafer-thin wood fired pizzas, hyper-seasonal antipasti and the exceptional pastas for which Funke is renowned. Many of the Roman classics are featured – Carbonara, all’Amatriciana, alla Gricia, al Burro, Arrabbiata and more.
