helm is a contemporary American BYOB highlighting seasonal ingredients from local urban farms. An ever-changing blackboard menu ensures the farmers' freshest bounty. In their first venture together, chefs Kevin D'Egidio and Michael Griffiths are drawing from their fine dining background with this casual, upbeat and exciting restaurant.
“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 considering hosting a private event here, do it. Absolute 10/10.”
“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 go so I’m sure they would have been even better fresh. I will 1000% be back. Bravo Helm, you know what you’re doing!!!”
“The food was very good. I liked that they gave complementary sparkling water with lemon. Service was excellent. I had the steak with latkes and it was definitely very good. Apps and desserts were shared and most of them were delicious. Some we didn't love but it wasn't bad. I'd come back again!”
