We recently visited my favorite restaurant of all times. The Barclay Prime is without a doubt, the best steak house you will find in ALL of Philadelphia. My husband & I, along with another couple visited the Barclay last week for Valentines dinner. The Rosemary popovers are always a favorite. Then the shellfish sampler came out, and once again, the oysters were superb! I thought the shrimp (as large as baby lobster tails) were a little tasteless. They were not as juicy/succulent as I remembered in the past. We all had the wedges, and they were okay, nothing very memorible about them. The 2 Bone-in Filets were cooked to perfection, as were the 2 strip steaks. So mouthwatering and flavorful. My favorite thing in the whole place is the truffle whipped potatoes. So, so yummy, as were the asparagus & steamed spinach that we all shared. Too full for desserts.
