Burgers, raw bar, American comfort food, lively atmosphere
























"One of the few rare spots to still consistently sell “buck-o-shuck” oysters in Philly, P. J. Clarke’s at the iconic Curtis building has $5 draft beers and $8 glasses of wine and cocktails. Accompanying snacks ring in at just $8 to $10. The specials run from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on weekdays at the restaurant’s bar and lounge areas." - Ernest Owens

"PJ Clarke’s at the Curtis Center is serving up a bountiful Thanksgiving feast with all of the trimmings for those who want to dine-in or take-out. On Thanksgiving Day from 10:30 am to 11 pm, diners can enjoy a three-course prix fixe menu ($65 per adult, $45 per child) that includes the option of a starter, entrée, and dessert that features roast heritage turkey, cedar plank salmon, creamy pumpkin soup, oysters, apple walnut cobbler, and more. To make advance orders and dine-in reservations, call 215-999-2000 or reserve online." - Ernest Owens


"This New American restaurant serves classic brunch dishes (homemade biscuits & honey, chicken & waffles, and corned beef hash) — and flavorful reinventions (such as their South Street fittata and full Irish breakfast). With large portions and a fun brunch cocktail menu (try their raspberry royale carafe), this is perfect for group dining in Washington Square." - Ernest Owens

"P.J. Clarke’s at the Curtis on Washington Square reopened at the beginning of March for indoor dining and outdoor patio seating, and you can reserve a table for either option on OpenTable." - Dayna Evans

"Before it even opened its Philly location, P.J. Clarke’s was supporting local causes. These days, the restaurant works with the Community Partnership School (CPS) in North Philly, My Daughter’s Kitchen, which provides after-school nutritional programs to students at CPS, and St. Augustine School in Norristown, along with veterans causes." - Sarah Maiellano
