Enjoyed Wilder's Center City District $20.00 2-course lunch menu for Aug 2026 with friends up on the skylit second floor dining room. Service was definitely busier (perhaps because of the promo), but still great! read more

My entree was excellent - really interesting and well prepared. My salad appetizer was teensy but good, albeit perhaps slightly overdressed. My cocktail as ok. But what I will remember most about my time here is HOW LOUD IT IS. OMG, my guest and I stepped outside and immediately shook our heads, as if to get the excess noise out of there. Nearly impossible to talk to your dinner guest. read more

We came here for happy hour before watching a FIFA game, and it was a great choice! The happy hour menu had excellent options, and everything we tried was delicious. The service was fast, friendly, and attentive throughout our visit. The pizza was incredible, and the restaurant itself is beautiful with great décor and a welcoming atmosphere. We were staying at an Airbnb in Rittenhouse Square, so we didn't have to worry about parking. we simply enjoyed the short walk to the restaurant. We'd definitely come back! read more

We came with a party of 5 and were seated on the first floor. The atmosphere is great, although first floor is a bit draft from the door being opened. -roasted oysters, plump and juicy -hamachi crudo, one of my faves, fresh and light -Malfadine sauce could have been more flavorful -margarita and lemon ricotta pizzas were both good -desserts were all really good, especially the olive oil cake -branzino, great cook, could've used a bit more sauce Service was great and they gave us the sorbet on the house! read more

This restaurant is 2 floors and so beautiful! It's modern with nice splashes of color and it was such a vibe. Service was fantastic. This was a great spot for a girl's dinner. It's casual but you won't be out of place if you dress up. For food, we started with the crispy calamari that came with a citrus frisee salad and was already sauced up. It was a unique style that I enjoyed and much lighter than other calamari dishes I've had. The petite plateau was perfect for sharing among the 4 of us. Everything was fresh and delicious while being presented so beautifully. The cocktails I had were good. They were different from ones I typically order which I thought was fun to experiment with new flavors to see what I like. One had a pickle garnish and the other was with a non-smoky mezcal. For entrees, most of us got pasta which were all handmade and tasty. My favorite was the one with crab & vodka sauce. The cacio e Pepe & mushroom ones were also good. What stood out the most during the meal was dessert. We got the double chocolate mousse and that was one of the best chocolate mousses I've ever had! It was so gorgeous and topped with a sunflower seed praline & had tangy passionfruit sauce at the bottom which made for a flavor explosion. I was so impressed! The key lime panna cotta was also a work of art topped with candied sourdough that provided a nice crunch to the creamy texture of this dish. It was so yummy! I can't wait to go back again! read more

Good was good, not bad. I got the pasta with jumbo lump crab. I felt there wasn't much crab in the dish. The ambiance is great, great for a date night. Probably wouldn't frequent here myself. read more

decent neighborhood spot for happy hour or a convenient bite! i've been to wilder numerous times over the years, mainly because i live less than 10 minutes away from it. it's fine. the food is decent, i would probably give it a 3/5 for dinner -- it's never my first choice but a choice out of convenience. the happy hour, however, is solid. i especially appreciate the dollar oyster special they have on wednesdays during the summer. you can't get oysters that cheap anywhere else in philly, such a steal! i do think that the restaurant is absolutely gorgeous. the decor is unmatched, and its modern, stylish, and quirky all at the same time. service is always amazing as well. i will definitely be back for the dollar oysters, and it's a bonus for dog parents that there is outdoor seating! read more

We went for Sunday brunch without a reservation. They didn't have any tables available but offered us seating at the bar or bench. We chose the bench, which was comfortable enough for one or two people. The service was excellent. Our waitress was patient and attentive. We ordered the Eggs Benedict and the Grilled Salmon Salad, and my friend had the Kombucha for drink. Both entrées were delicious; the salad was fresh, and the salmon was perfectly cooked. My friend liked her drink too. For dessert, we shared the pistachio and cherry tart and ordered Jade tea (one pot was enough for both of us). The tart was fantastic, with a pistachio custard base that was especially good. Overall, we were happy with our choices and the restaurant experience. Highly recommended! read more

Had such a nice dinner here- service was excellent! The ambiance was fantastic and the food was impeccable! We had hamachi bites which was small but tasty and beautifully presented! The beet salad was so fresh and delish. Calamari was perfectly fried light and crispy. I did not have the honey rolls but everyone was raving about it as the best app. I had the Calabrian hot chicken which was deep fried- tasty and spicy and generous portion- everyone liked all the dishes - I had the chocolate mousse dessert which was really really delicious ! read more

Not sure if Monday night is the ideal time to try this spot out.. Food was bland and overall experience can be described as such outside of the sorbet and the service. Too many amazing places in the city to settle for decent to ok. Cool space and perhaps prime time when the A team is in the kitchen will render a different outcome/experience. read more

I'll be dreaming about this meal for YEARS. Nothing makes me happier than cacio e pepe and here it's done right. Silky, creamy and cheesy perfection. Perfectly al dente noodles. I finished every last drop. I also paired this with a side of buttery broccolini which made for the perfect bite. Don't sleep on the bread and butter - it's an upcharge, but oh so worth it. The rolls were pillowy and buttery and the garlic butter was melt in your mouth. Everything on the menu sounded so decadent that it was really hard to choose. My friend ordered the chicken cutlet and it was literally the size of three plates. Cocktails were delicious, the decor was gorgeous and the service was on point. This is a really amazing pick for a swanky dinner out in Center City. read more

The food is delicious. I came before and had the madaldine pasta with the crab meat and it was good. I was happy to find out that I could add a protein with my cacio e pepper pasta because, by itself, it's not filling. The shrimp was delicious. I love their variety of NA drinks. The service was great! Shout out to the wait staff I've had at each visit. The place is so beautiful. I have not seen the upstairs yet, but the bar seats are way too cute and the dining area is immaculate. read more

Service was superb. Water was never low. Ambiance was beautiful. First floor was amazing. Outdoor seating was even decorated with flowers. I came here for the Beef Carpaccio and it did not disappoint. Perfectly cut. Would have not overlapped as much for easier handling. The steak in the hanger steak salad was cooked perfectly. A little kick of spiciness to it. I was not a fan of the Lamb Bacon Pizza because the lamb tasted gamey to me and the cheese they used I did not enjoy. My friends seem to like it though. The Malfadine Alla Vodka - the pasta used was so unique. It really immersed the sauce in all its twirls. They did not skimp on the crab meat. I wish there was more than one unisex bathroom on the first floor. Would come back to try the dinner menu and if they add squid ink pasta to the menu. I mentioned in the reservation that we were celebrating two birthdays, but I guess since we did not order a dessert, nothing was mentioned by the staff. Cocktails were very good. read more

Before heading to Philadelphia for a work trip, we made reservations for a large team dinner (18+ people) in their private dining room. The team was very easy to work with and made helpful suggestions along the way. Upon arrival, I was greeted and then shown to our room where everything was setup very nicely! The menu was a preset family style selection and then we ordered bottles of white and red for the team. The wine selection was a bit unfortunate as we have a few wine connoisseurs in our group and to find a red they didn't really dislike was a challenge. There was luckily no issue with the white wines. The food on the other hand was great and I loved most items! We tried the seasonal greens salad, blueberries & burratta salad, the mafaldine alla vodka, sliced hanger steak, cacio de pepe, broccolini & carrots and then two desserts... double chocolate mouse and bomboloni. The burrata salad wasn't quite what I was used to and I think you can skip it and I feel the same about the carrots and the double chocolate mouse. The mouse was chocolate and passion fruit which just didn't meld as well as I would hope. Everything else... amazing. I LOVED both of the pastas, the steak was cooked perfectly, the other dessert was one I couldn't get enough of. I also have to mention that the ambiance was lovely and the service was fantastic from both our server and the managers who came to check in everything was as we expected. Really happy we picked this place and would absolutely pick it again! read more

Wilder was popping on a Friday evening. Loud enough for leaning in to my dining mate to catch some parts of our conversation. Lively bar area that appears fully stocked and cute decor: multi-colored fabric across the walls-multiple chandeliers, wall sconces and small lights weaved through vines hung on the wall separating the main dining area from the bar/lounge area provide muted lighting. It made for a nice vibe We loved the wood fired pizza-perfect umami flavors from the seasoned lamb + bacon and thin but foldable and chewy crust. Burrata and apple was surprisingly a bit meh. The burrata was served too cold and we couldn't taste any flavor and the accompanying salad seemed too much like shredded bagged salad. The malfadine pasta was too al dente and served lukewarm. It was promptly replaced when we mentioned it and the replacement was much better-perfect temperature and texture. Nice amount of crab-albeit several pieces of included shell. The vodka sauce was nice-a little spicy and bright with a mild citrus tartness. The broccolini was bright and tasty despite seeming to need at least another 45 seconds of cooking. read more

I did a random pop in because of the name Wilder duuuh! It was calling me while on Sansom street. I listened and decided to grab a happy hour cocktail before dinner & I'm so happy that I did. The bar area was right up my cheetah gurl ally. The bartenders were friendly and fast with execution. Although I only spent about 45 mins there, I could easily get lost in the libations and atmosphere next time. Cheers! read more

Delicious drinks and food. Good service and ambiance and wasn't rushed out. Would recommend.

I'll have to say, I was unfortunately underwhelmed with my dinner at Wilder. I thought the pasta was pretty good (flavorful, well cooked), but I asked for a substituted protein (which I appreciated) but the chicken I got was dry. I also did not care for the drink I ordered (kimono racer). Maybe because we came with a large group on Valentine's Day, they weren't at there best? I don't know but it really missed the mark. I will say I would 1000% come back for the pull apart rolls alone. read more

Wilder - Bucatini Cacio E Pepe - Pizza Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I really really loved the food here - The grilled hanger steak was fine; not the best steak I've had and at some parts were overcooked. I thought the black pepper jus was too spicy truthfully, they should have put less sauce on the plate and the "gnocchi" was odd, it was also kind of cold so it didn't blow me away. The mafaldine alla vodka was the star of the show - the noodles are fresh and have a lovely bite, and there is so much crab that is not fishy at all. If it had some red pepper flakes to garnish, it would've been perfect! The sweet & spicy pizza was also fantastic - I really appreciated how fresh and crispy the dough was. The spice from soppressata was marvelous with the honey. Lastly we got the double chocolate mousse which by itself, INCREDIBLE. The passion fruit sauce on the bottom? Not the biggest fan with the mousse. I understand that it's in theory a good pairing but it was a miss for me, I'd get it on the side. Overall, the service was great and the restaurant had a cute look and feel. I'd definitely come back to try more items! read more

I've been to Wilder twice, both for private events. One was a bridal shower in the second floor bar area and the second was on the third floor for a reunion dinner. Both events were great. Food and dessert were good. My two critiques are the drinks could be better they seems a bit light/watered down and the second is that the third floor got really hot. Opening a window or some other form of ventilation would have been nice. Overall a beautiful restaurant with a great vibe. read more

The ambiance is great, they feature an upstairs and downstairs area with plenty of seating room. The staff was amazing, had some great chats with them. We came here for a birthday dinner as well as a surprise. The food was good but the rolls were great especially with that tomato based butter/dip. The pizza as good as it was I was hoping for a firmer bottom and crust, it got messy really fast. I will say I have had a few doctor's orders from different places and this one wasn't too high up on my list. The ginger was to present in the drink and needed a dial back. read more

I drove my wife down into the city for a Yelp Event and booked a reservation here afterwards. Ordered some nice cocktails, but I could tell my wife wanted two types of pasta. So, One of us went with the Mafaldine Alla Vodka with lump crab and the other went with Chevre Stuffed Cestini with a sunchoke puree. The food was paced well, tasted good, and the staff were attentive. Offering suggestions and letting us know we were doing things right with our cocktails. For dessert, we went with the chocolate cremeux and the wilder bomboloni. Two excellent bites that ended the meal perfectly. How can you go wrong with whipped marshmallow and peanut butter ganache? read more

I was in town for a work trip and stopped in here for a bite (and a hangover remedy ) before my train back to NY. I had an INCREDIBLE experience here. I sat at the bar with Lucy and she was kind, knowledgeable and hospitable. I was only going to pop in for one and be on my way but her ethos and hospitality changed my mind and I ended up staying at the bar to finish up my work day. I had the hangar steak salad (AMAZING) and a glass of Chenin Blanc. Additionally, the Non Alc section of this menu is impressive! Thank you Lucy for such a great afternoon! read more

I have walked past the sign for Wilder many times and finally went for an impromptu dinner after an event. They kindly offered to seat us early (reservation was at 9:30, we showed up just at 9) at an outside table. The service - it was late and they were busy, however a few things were not exactly up to par given the prices of this restaurant. 1) when we were seated we had to wait over 5 minutes to get menus and any place settings, 2) our waiter had to come out and realize we had not received one of the dishes we ordered after all the other dishes had been out for 15+ minutes, 3) we made it clear we were sharing all of the plates, and we still had to ask for small plates a few times before getting them. All that being said, our waiter was very kind and offered good menu suggestions. I think the issues mentioned above were just the product of a busy Friday night. The Food - overall really good! We got a nice assortments of appetizers, pastas and a pizza. Would recommend the scallop crudo and burrata, as well as the stuffed cestini pasta. This is a conveniently located restaurant (near Rittenhouse and several bars) with good outdoor and indoor seating. Great for a weekend night out, though maybe would avoid going after 9pm on a busy night! read more

We had a lower-level table for six, and it was super comfortable; by plenty of room and great vibes all around. The atmosphere is lively in the best way, there's definitely a buzz, but it feels exciting and fun rather than too loud. The Cacio e Pepe was incredible and is honestly one of the best I've ever had anywhere. Everyone at the table loved their dishes. Service was steady and smooth the whole time, our server kept things moving without ever feeling rushed. Overall, Wilder nails that mix of great food, energy, and service. Perfect spot for a fun dinner with friends or a night out in the city! read more

Y'all, I just tried to eat a bite of our leftover lamb bacon pizza before bed but ended up devouring the entire slice because it was way too good. Love the pops of flavor from the green onion, mint pesto, and bacon and the soft, chewy crust! The beef carpaccio was also fresh and delicious, as were the oysters (though I wish they'd had a spicier condiment available for the oysters). Service was fast and friendly, and the interior is beautiful and comfortable, perfect for a date or girls night. Oh, but my husband and I each got a cocktail and were both underwhelmed. I got the It's for Horses and my husband got the squash something, it had coffee in it, but neither was very coherent in flavor. So I might not get any $16 cocktails next time, but I'll be back for the food for sure! read more
