Last night at Barclay Prime in Philadelphia, PA was magical. The purpose of our visit was to celebrate a family member who is going to a military academy soon. The staff was attentive to this and surprised her with a small cake with a candle on it, and "congratulations" was written on the plate they served her the cake in. This was a very nice touch, it surprised our family member, and left her with a core memory and boost during such an important and special time in her life. Thank you Barclay staff for a wonderful experience.

Great 1st visit! Friday lunch. All 3 of us enjoyed our meals. Tasty. Good size (not "big", but appropriate/ nice portion). Front and back of house staff were concerned and actively took proper steps to address a food allergy. We ordered the cheeseburger (x2) and Gem lettuce w/ chicken. Both were fantastic... flavor, presentation, preparation was as promised/ expected. Staff was attentive but not lurking. I look forward to returning.

The food was fresh and tasted amazing. Had the sea bass, 10/10. Had every raw oyster they had available and loved every single one. The broccolini Caesar was amazing as well. Will definitely go back to try the crab fried rice.
