Wonder is a ghost kitchen and NOT a food hall - "food hall" is misleading branding from Wonder, and doesn't feel genuine.
This location has light seating, and is right by Liberty Place.
I had a Wonder discount code, so gave them a spin. I explored Wonder's website, mobile web site, and app. All provided basically the same experience. Ordering was easy. Mix and match dishes from different genres, or just pick one. There's no tipping or delivery fees. I decided to pick up my food, so I headed to Wonder's Rittenhouse location.
My food was ready as-promised. However, no one was at the front to hand me my food. No greeters, no one manning the customer takeout area. I had to poke my head in the kitchen to ask for help. (Growing pains?)
Wonder seems to have deals with certain restaurants, like SriPhaPhai, a NYC Thai spot. I ordered a Tom Yum soup, which tasted very generic, not like anything you'd get from the actual SriPhaPhai (which I've been to several times). Their papaya salad wasn't bad, but drenched in sauce. To mix things up, I got a beef and broccoli (white rice included) which looked like Chinese takeout. Meat was distractingly tenderized, but the broccoli was good. I was okay with the last dish, but disappointed with my Thai choices.
Risk trying Wonder if you have a discount code. Otherwise why pay so much for average food? read more
