Jose Garces has opened a new bar and restaurant in the historic old Bookbinders in Old City Philadelphia, PA.  There's a focus on seafood with the ambiance of an oyster/seafood restaurant with a deep cocktail menu.

We checked out the venue for Happy Hour and sampled some of their fair.  The service at the bar was great and time will tell how the Olde Bar makes an impression on the Philadelphia dining scene but I certainly have high hopes.

Seafood/oyster/cocktail lovers should definitely check out Garces' latest offering.
