Picture this, a grilled octopus appetizer and sweet, buttery, fresh, pan-fried halibut. How about lobster bisque and New England clam chowder? All of these dishes are excellent choices at Oyster House. When it comes to oysters, try Wellfleet, Naked Cowboy, and Mystics served bright and clean with lemon, cocktail, and mignonette sauces. The Center City eatery serves a Maryland crab cake with remoulade, brussels slaw with pecorino and hazelnuts that is sublime. If you can’t decide on just one thing, don’t delay- ask the server to dish up the mixed seafood grill, a meal of swordfish, shrimp, and scallops, with potatoes and salsa verde!
