This would have been a 5-star review but the lemon-pepper chicken which a little too seasoned (salty) for me but dipping them in both a ranch and blue cheese dressing with a few dollops of Tabasco sauce was a good recommendation.

We went to a house show until 5 a.m. the night before and woke up late. Our reso was at 1:30, but…read morewe called and pushed it to 2:30. The hostess said no problem. Great phone voice, by the way. We walked to the restaurant during the purported "heat dome" weekend. Fortunately, the air conditioning is pristine. We sat at the oyster bar and recommend you do so too. Our waiter was great. We should have caught his name but didn't. Either way, he was a real one. P spotted some absolute babe across the bar and asked our waiter what she was drinking. Important side note: attractive people dine here, but not in an intimidating way if you're a normie. Turns out it was a mocktail from the Zero Proof menu. We don't judge. Our waiter then turned us on to an OG move: order a mocktail and add booze. P got the Pink Drink and added vodka. J ordered a Bee's Knees and a Firing Squad. All above average. Anyway, we created an oyster flight and got two of each, working our way across the Eastern Seaboard. The house sauce was fantastic and incorporated some sort of onion and horseradish combination. We don't pretend to understand what that sorcery was, but keep doing it. Create your own GD oyster flight. You won't regret it. We also ordered some shrimp cocktail and shared the lobster roll sandwich. We forgot to take pics, but the generic photo attached is actually how it looks. Not a bad bite. This was the perfect amount of food for two hungover people who took IR Adderall before the walk. We lingered for a while and they don't push you out. Ended up ordering a couple IPAs. They started shucking oysters to prepare for the dinner crowd, which is neat to watch when you're on the spectrum like us. Also, the walls are covered in different oyster plates. We spent about 20 minutes discussing which one was our favorite. We landed on a green one. It's a real vibe lifter of a joint. Brought us back to life. 10/10.

Both were good, but the aiolis were a little overpowering when having them together. I'd probably choose one appetizer or the other next time rather than getting both--it gives your palate a little more of a chance to enjoy each flavor. For our entrée, we had the roasted oysters. They had a great mixture of flavors and were cooked perfectly. We finished with the key lime pie, which had a subtle, refreshing flavor, and I loved the coconut flakes on top. Our waiter was efficient and attentive, and the atmosphere made you feel like you could be sitting somewhere right beside the beach. I especially loved all the oyster plates covering the walls--such a fun touch that added to the coastal feel.

My wife's main dish was Chicken piccata and my main dish was the chicken fantasia which was outstanding. They gave us homemade lemoncello.

First, love the location of Pearl & Mary -- very walkable with so many restaurants and activities. We started off with oyster shooters and fried oysters. Both were great. The shooter had a bit of a kick to it. I would get it again. The fried oysters (not pictured), were just ok and I do wish they were fried harder. The cioppino...salty! I couldn't finish it and had to send it back. Heavy-handed on the seasoning is an understatement. It's too bad because all of the goodness of the sea was included -- from oysters, to shrimp, fish, mussels! The salt aside, this would have been a great dish. Service was meh. Not sure if I'd visit again. But, as I say, try for yourself! Cheers!

The scallop toast was another standout, and I can completely understand why this is a staple on their ever-changing menu. All of the courses were fantastic, and I left feeling perfectly full. As the menu is seasonal, I'm sure I will be back sometime soon!

It seemed to be on the forefront of the dining scene in Philadelphia and felt so special. It's still special. The location has changed and the concept has changed, but it still delivers the intimate setting and mind-blowing innovative, fresh food. I came here with two friends for a belated birthday meal and everything was delicious! This is a pre-set tasting menu so one gets to sit back, relax and relish in each dish that is placed on the table. The Prince Edward Island mussels were so fresh and delicious and I also loved the grilled mountain trout! But truly, all dishes were carefully crafted and were a delight! Bring wine and enjoy this place. Service is professional and elegant and the food is some of the best this city offers. (Still!)
