A group of us went here last night and we loved our experience! The food was excellent. Entrees - steak frites, burgers - were all great. Everyone enjoyed their appetizers too. Also, a really nice selection of cocktails and wine. The service was very friendly and accommodating. We will be back!

Came for a drag bingo and it was so much fun! The food/drinks were great and so were the vibes. A perfect midweek pick me up

I have dined here multiple times and there are so many amazing dishes on the menu. I always make sure to order the French onion soup dumplings. They are one of a kind and I have never seen anything like them at any other restaurant.

Every so often, a meal catches you so off guard with its brilliance that you find yourself sitting in stunned silence, food still on your tongue, letting out a slow, involuntary sigh—as if you’ve just experienced something indecently divine.

Insatiable delivers on all fronts: innovative small plates, fresh, expertly prepared entrées, creative cocktails, and warm, community-centered service. A shining star in Point Breeze—this is one neighborhood gem that truly satisfies every craving. Highly recommended!

This was one of the best restaurants I’ve been to in the area. The service, drinks, and food were excellent!! The chef is so personable and her presentation for each appetizer and entree were beautiful. I love the atmosphere of the restaurant. I will definitely be coming back as much as I can. I would highly recommend everyone try this restaurant when in Philly. Sooo amazing!!

We visited Insatiable after reading glowing reviews and seeing stunning cocktails and food shots online. The branding promised a polished, elevated experience—but what we got felt more like a soft open gone awry.
From the moment we walked in, the smell of fresh paint was overwhelming. There wasn’t much ambiance—no music, minimal decor—and we got a few long stares from the bar as we entered. The space has only one booth; everything else is high tops, which was unexpected given the high-end vibe portrayed online.
Our server was nice, but she was bartending and serving solo and clearly overwhelmed. Drinks took a while and didn’t land. The mezcal cocktail tasted oddly like motor oil, and the Chardonnay tasted like it was at the end of its life.
After waiting a long time for the appetizer (French onion soup dumplings), the rest of our food finally arrived—over an hour into the meal. Sadly, nothing was worth the wait: • The dumplings were overly salty. • The burger was bland. • The lobster roll was far too vinegary. • The steak lacked the signature presentation. • The salads were fine, but forgettable.
We were never offered water, checked on, or given updates. The only proactive moment came when what seemed like a friend or off-duty staff member stepped in to help the frazzled server. The cook eventually came out to apologize—but only to the couple at the bar, who’d arrived after us and had already eaten and been comped.
Eventually, the cook came to us and acknowledged she was the only one cooking that night. We appreciate the honesty, but wish that context had come sooner. A little communication would’ve gone a long way. Instead, we felt trapped by the slow service and inedible food, and just wanted the check.
They offered us a round of drinks to apologize, but by then we were more than ready to leave.
All that said: it’s possible we caught Insatiable on an off night. We know restaurant service can be unpredictable and staff issues happen. But when that’s the case, transparency matters. Otherwise, customers walk away not just disappointed—but confused why they even stayed.

We had the sweetest server. However, she was the only staff we saw in the restaurant. Serving all tables and bar patrons.
We tried several apps, salads, and entrees. Nothing was seasoned, hot, and overall we were unsatisfied.

This place is a true hidden gem in the neighborhood! The customer service is top notch and the food is made with love, you can taste it 💖 I've never had a dish there that I didn't enjoy. Lastly, the drinks are very creative. Nice for a full dinner or for a quick app n drink. Overall, great spot!

I want to give a higher review, but the happy hour was deceiving. I asked my server about red wines recommended during happy hour and was suggested one that was not part of the happy hour. Therefore it was not half off, but it seemed as though all the wine they were sharing with me were part of the happy hour. I was never told that this wine was not part of happy hour, I ordered multiple wines. I was very surprised by my bill at the end.

We recently held a bridal shower here at Insatiable- and I have so many great things to say about having an event here, from the warm and friendly staff to the food being absolutely mouth watering to the overall beautiful decor of the restaurant to pair perfectly with our love is in bloom theme! From the moment we arrived (with a ton of decorations) staff greeted us warmly offering plenty of refreshments as well as taking many things off our of hands with helping clean up! You guys are incredible and i cannot recommend Insatiable enough!!!
