I had snapper soup there. It was an 11 out of a possible 10. My wife had New England clam chowder it is (her score system) a 10 out of 10. Best ever. Unfortunately, they do not currently have snapper soup. Missing the old Bookbinder too.
Signed, Old Philadelphia natives.

Great food and fun for friend gathering.

The best oysters anywhere!!!
