• French • Center City

Booked 33 times today

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.

The food was inspired, every dish was so incredibly thought out to be both individually brilliant, but also fit into the flow of the meal itself. The halibut, sweet bread and beef were particular stand outs. The drinks were also very clever and delicious. This was for an anniversary and it did not disappoint!
