- CCedrickDenver / Colorado •2 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoWe had an amazing dining experience at the Oyster House! The lobster roll I ordered was absolutely delicious, and my wife thoroughly enjoyed her scallops – perfectly cooked and full of flavor. For appetizers, we shared the calamari and fried oysters, which were both fantastic and crispy. The flavors were spot-on, and the service was friendly and attentive. Highly recommend this spot for seafood lovers – we'll definitely be back!More infoOyster House PhiladelphiaPrice: Very Expensive• Seafood• Center City•4.9
- SSophiePhiladelphia County •1 review5.0Dined 7 days agoThis was a wonderful first fine dining experience. I was struck speechless by some dishes. The espresso before dinner was not complimentary, the hollandaise was slightly cold over my tortellini and the potato gratin’s cheese split which was unfortunate but overall it was truly a magical experience and the were highlights (the nonalcoholic spritz, the magical lighting, the dessert, and the aji with apple and peanuts) that struck me speechless and made up for it. Magical. Wonderful. So happy I did it.More infoVetri Cucina - PhiladelphiaPrice: Very Expensive• Italian• Center City•4.9
