Classic restaurant, Old Original Bookbinders updated in a respectful manner by Jose Garces. The best french toast and excellent seafood.

Jose Garces' Olde Bar revives the Old Original Bookbinder's, a mid-20th century landmark Philadelphia restaurant. Keeping the early seafood house's spirit alive, a full raw bar greets guests upon walking in the door, and a catalog of crab cakes, Cape Cod mussels, lobster rolls and more fill the menu of delicious eats.
