Very disappointing experience. The outdoor seating set up is bare bones and not comfortable. The quality/quantity vs price doesn’t make sense. One tater tot sized corn croquette should not cost 12$ each!!

We first visited in October 2023 and had an incredible experience — everything was spot on. The food and drinks were fantastic, service was top notch. The steak with pumpkin , eel Caesar, and fish crudo were true standouts.
Unfortunately, when we returned last night (September 2025), the experience was far from the same. The new menu felt underwhelming, and the overall food quality had declined noticeably.
We ordered the tuna tartare appetizer, sungold tomato appetizer, and the Escar-roll to start. For mains, we tried the “à la David” chicken and the skirt steak, followed by the Mille-feuille for dessert.
The biggest disappointment was the skirt steak. We weren’t asked how we wanted it cooked, and it arrived nearly raw (blue, not even medium rare). The server didn’t check in until later, and when we explained the issue, the steak was taken back. A few minutes later, the same steak returned, reheated in the same jus. Unfortunately, it was still very rare, overly gamey from the reheating, and extremely chewy — inedible, really. We couldn’t finish the steak and informed the server again, but despite the clear issue, we were still charged the full $70 for the dish and seemed like she didn’t even cared about this issue.(The photo attached shows the steak after it was “recooked.”)
On the positive side, the chicken was enjoyable, and both the escargot dish and the dessert were highlights of the evening. Still, given our excitement to revisit after such a stellar first experience in 2023, this return was deeply disappointing. Between the service and the food, we left unsatisfied and, sadly, don’t see ourselves coming back and unfortunately had to update my review from 5 stars to 3.

An unforgettable meal. Service was attentive and friendly from start to finish. A must if you love a creative, elevated take on comfort food classics.

This place slaps. I’ve been three times now. Never had a bad dish. Their sauce work is impeccable. They know how to highlight seasonality and the best produce. Pricing is fair for the amount of work, technique, and quality ingredients that make up each dish. Cocktail program matches the food program. Thoughtful, delicious, creative.
The corn crème brûlée brought me to tears.
I never knew I needed pickled shrimp in my life. And now… they are a must order. I need them.
Bring a couple friends and order the whole menu. You can’t go wrong.

Love this place so much. I'm not sure I've ever had another meal like it. The food? What can I say - it's art. Half Montreal, half whatever-they-felt-like-doing-that-day, it's wholly unique among the places I've eaten. The drinks, an ever so slightly modernized twist on fin de siecle standards, pair perfectly with menu items like the very, very memorable roast-beef-and-french-fry rollup. They even have a Rolodex of recipes and if you request one they haven't had they put your name on it. The atmosphere of a little brasserie set up in between two much larger restaurants, the kind of place locals go for quiet Francophone chats over a well-mixed vieux carre.

This place was generally really disappointing. For the price point, the quality of the food and the service is not up to par in comparison to the other quality restaurants in Philadelphia. I wouldn’t recommend this spot to someone personally.

The food was okay, and the service was passable. I’m sorry, but I don’t think you’ve quite hit the mark yet. You need to do something to make the experience more enjoyable, especially since you’re charging a premium price. $650 plus tips for 5 people Yes you have to offer better culinary and service experience
My Loup is an absolute gem in Philadelphia. The atmosphere and overall vibe were spot on - chic and inviting. From the moment we arrived, the staff was outstanding : attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely welcoming. The menu was quite creative and the combinations of flavor really stood out! One of the chefs, Sage, even came out to speak to us and walk us through the entire menu. That personal touch made the evening feel more special. My Loup is more than a meal, it's an experience for sure! We can't wait to go back.

Disappointed experience. Got the $125 per person tasting menu. It started strong but ended very weak. Lamb and snail appetizer were very good but main course (steak, bake potato, and salad) was mediocre at best. They accidentally brought us the break down price receipt. Steak was definitely not worth $150.
Service was good. People are nice. But environment/music was way too loud. The bartender was yelling sometimes. Difficult to have a conversation.

My Loup met and exceeded its reputation. Incredible food and super kind/knowledgeable/warm staff too. We went for a celebration dinner and did the prix fixe and ended up taking half the food home because we were so stuffed. Would definitely recommend and hope to return!

My fiancé and had a incredible dining experience at My Loup. Beautiful lively atmosphere, and an attentive and helpful staff, ready to answer any questions regarding food and beverage options.
We ordered from the a la carte menu and all dishes were fantastic. The oysters were fresh and the pickled shrimp and crackers was unique and delicious. I am also a big fan of sour dour bread, so I had to order that, and it was amazing (the butter too). Save some to dunk in the sauces of the main courses.
The duck ribs were my favorite dish of the evening, tender, flavorful, the meat slide right off the bone.
For mains, we ordered the roast chicken and the Roasted Skate Wing ‘Piccata, both delicious, fresh and quite large portions. It was a nice touch when the chef (Alex Kemp) delivered the fish dish and explained the proper way to cut it.
Lastly, the blueberry frangipane tart was a perfect dessert to the end the meal.
The wine and cocktail list is also extensive.
I highly recommend reservations, the bar also requires reservations, we arrived about 15 minutes early and enjoyed a cocktail near the hostess stand until our table was ready.
