Helm

Helm will be a restaurant I return to time and time again. The dishes are creative, fresh, and delicious — and the hospitality incredibly generous. The space was extremely cozy and welcoming and with a 3 course meal priced at $60 (and BYOB) - its value can’t be beat. I am very grateful I stumbled upon this lovely space!

This is such a fun, creative BYOB spot. I love how they change up the menu and it’s always a surprise. I won’t knock a star for it given how unique this place is, but it would be great to have one vegetarian option for the main course (coming from someone who isn’t a vegetarian but typically doesn’t order large meat dishes for a main).

This place is awesome. The food, the staff, the service were all top notch. It doesn’t feel like a stuffy 5 star restaurant but your food tastes every bit like it would at a 5 star. It’s BYOB and one of the wine bottle we brought had a cork that disintegrated and they kindly filtered it all out and put it in a decanter for us. Every single course was delicious!! We each got a different appetizer, two different entrées, and two different desserts. Every one of the appetizers was amazing, but I thought the wax beans by far were the best. The carrots were also delicious and everyone really loved the rice noodles too. Each dish was unique and super flavorful!! The steak appetizer was excellent. My scallops were good but not my favorite mix. The desserts were very good and we had to get them to

Helm is outstanding, a neighborhood gem! Super cozy and cute space with incredibly friendly service. We tried almost every dish, the food was so so imaginative and tasty and an incredible value at $60 for 3 courses. One of our party was gluten free and was able to have just about everything on the menu including ice cream sandwich for dessert!

We rented out the entire restaurant at Helm for our rehearsal dinner, and it was absolutely incredible from start to finish. The food was beyond — truly some of the best meals our guests said they’ve ever had in Philadelphia. People were raving about it as they walked out the door. The team was so accommodating throughout the entire process. From planning to execution, everything felt seamless. They welcomed us to really make the space our own, we dropped off our own booze and personal touches and completely took over the place for the night, and they couldn’t have been more gracious about it. The atmosphere, the service, the attention to detail all top tier. It was the perfect setting for such a special night, and we couldn’t have imagined a better rehearsal dinner. If you’re considerin
