About
French sailor turned American powerhouse, Stephen Girard was always known for his headstrong and rebellious attitude. It's what pushed him to leave his home in Bordeaux, France and travel the world, conquering New York City’s shipping and trade industry before docking in Philadelphia to build a life. From there, Girard went on to build a number of successful businesses in banking, construction, politics, coal mining, and transportation. We named this restaurant The Wayward as a tribute to Girard’s spirit, his life at sea, and his legacy as a successful entrepreneur. Much like Girard, we sway toward the unconventional. Our menu is focused on American classics, while taking notes from beloved French bistros, and our oyster and gin selections are some of the best in the city.
