Located just off Rittenhouse Square, My Loup’s menu is French Canadian with a lighter touch. Guests can fashion a meal from a selection of smaller dishes and a drink at the bar or commit to a giant plateau fruits de mer and anything else the kitchen decides to send out as part of their “Let Us Cook For You” menu — potentially a half chicken with matzah balls or a halibut tail with turnips, smoked butter, and clams. Executive Chef Alex Kemp works with what suppliers have fresh, with change viewed as a catalyst that propels the menu forward and fosters a dynamic energy that encourages experimentation.

    Had eggplant parmigiana- absolutely excellent - one of the best eggplant parms I’ve ever had - an enormous portion and well worth it. Excellent strong coffee - and so nice to have a table with lovely tablecloths and cloth napkins. The venue has been totally redone and is stunning - beautiful finishes and attention to detail. Sound level is really good - tables are far enough apart you don’t have neighbor’s conversations - and you can converse with your guests at a reasonable volume. Service was excellent - charming and efficient - this is a very welcome addition to the neighborhood. My friends meals were equally good - one had a whole branzino that was so expertly filleted and cooked that there was not a single bone in the very flaky flesh.

    how lucky we are to have this true Italian restaurant in our neighborhood. The service couldn’t have been better or sweeter, the noise level was very moderate although it was 1230., and the seafood salad was chock full of fresh wonderful seafood at a wonderful price. I really couldn’t ask for anything more.!
