Pearl and Mary Oyster Bar Philadelphia Reviews from The Last Year
We love pearl and Mary all year but springtime to fall
We love pearl and Mary all year but springtime to fall when you can comfortably sit outside and people watch is fantastic. The service and food are always excellent. I recommend going for their happy hour it's wonderful!! We always look forward to our next evening out there.
Great Happy Hour! Get there early and sit at the bar it's a
Great Happy Hour! Get there early and sit at the bar it's a great vibe. We got a little of everything on the raw menu and a few glasses of wine and it was perfect! Def recommend
I really wish I could give them more stars and better
I really wish I could give them more stars and better credit. If you're going in for seafood, clearly you know what you're going to pay for. But there crab meat appetizer was shredded crab meat and tasted frozen. Plus it definitely wasn't worth it. If you don't go, they kind of look at you. Most of the waist staff seems very inexperienced, as well as maybe some of the management. I appreciate you checking with the chef and the kitchen, but since my request are minimal. I don't really expect a lot of pushback the way it was given. I guess the customer isn't always right. so I guess I won't be spending my money there again. The food was good, and the drinks are OK as well. I just think they need to check themselves a little bit and come back down to reality and realize that without us, there is no business.

Best happy hour in the city no doubt, always fresh just hard to get a seat at the bar
Very good food and a large menu for your friends that don't
Very good food and a large menu for your friends that don't love oysters. Larger restaurant too! Staff were very attentive and kind. Can't say enough about how great happy hour is here: very affordable food and a decent enough HH menu options that help you explore their seafood leaning menu. Cocktails were also very good and not overpriced from 4-7. Fries are the bomb. I'm unfortunately not enough of a seafood expert to rate the raw bar.

The service was good but I had the oysters and got home and begin throwing up!! Over and over again they gave me food poisoning!!! Do not recommend

We went to Peal & Mary for the first time last night and we will definitely be back! The interior is super cosy and nautical and the bar is beautiful. The food and drinks were amazing! Fresh, tasty, and reasonably priced. The coconut cake was to die for. 11 layers!!!! The staff was attentive, friendly, and efficient. I highly recommend Pearl & Mary for a nice night out!
Gorgeous place and one of my favorites in the neighborhood.
I haven't had anything that wasn't delicious, but the red snapper in a Thai-style coconut broth was to die for, as were the oysters rockefeller. Special shoutout as well to the milk bread. I don't know why it's so hard to find homemade soft bread (that is NOT sourdough or something seed-heavy) in the city and I wouldn't have expected a seafood restaurant to be the one to offer it, but absolutely no complaints here. I would happily go back just for the milk bread alone. I will echo other reviewers that the portion sizes are fairly small and a la carte, so you'll want to be aware of that when budgeting your meal. :) It is very easy to spend $50+ per person here and that's before dessert or alcohol. Not that unusual for the area, but something worth knowing. I felt that service was well above average, as was the sheer number of staff. Alex was our server and he was genuinely friendly, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic about the food. Finally, I want to praise the layout. A lot of Center City restaurants are, for obvious reasons, kind of "phone booth" style. Long, skinny and with very tight seating. While Pearl and Mary is cozy and loud, the tables are just far enough apart that it doesn't feel as overwhelming as some other places. It's a matter of inches, but it makes a difference when you're not nearly rubbing elbows with the next table and hearing every detail of their own conversation.
Very good food! Awesome ambiance.
The pink moon was the best oyster in our review. The service was attentive but not overwhelming. Perfect. Will be back.
I've been here two times so far -- for happy hour -- and
I've been here two times so far -- for happy hour -- and everything's been delicious so far! The oysters are the star of the show, probably the best I've had (but I'm also not verse in the oyster world). Tastes so fresh. I don't think they out any mignonette in the oysters, yet it has a deliciously indescribable flavor to them? Kind of like a mix of salt water & maybe garlic... Maybe that's just how fresh, quality oysters taste but I'm fan now, considering I could easily have a dozen oysters to myself! (And i wasn't a huge fan of oysters before) My first visit I ordered from the happy hour menu; - the mussel toast -- scrumptious but very small.. it was $3. Would have rather had them charge a bit more for a bigger portion. (It was probably the size of chip for reference) - deviled eggs -- $4 for two halves of an egg () really yummy again, but i think $4 for a single egg isn't worth it tbh - french fries -- $4 standard fries.. i was just craving fries to munch on. reminds me of McDonald's - $2 oysters -- FAV! Come here just for them. - $1 clam -- good, but small. Oysters are tastier and bigger & would rather pay the $1 difference for oysters - $7 Cocktail; Paloma -- to be honest, wasn't very good at all. Super strong (which could be good for some?) but mostly tasted like alcohol and a splash of grapefruit. Wasn't really carbonated or sweet. Regular menu - Crab Dip -- $16 I got this on both times i went. So yummy & has bits of shrimp in it that adds texture & seafoody flavor. Very creamy; wish i knew how to make this myself!! - Crab Cake -- $16 for 1/$30 for 2. Really good, and big crab cakes! I was honestly full from happy hour items + crab dip but i couldn't help but finish a crab cake to myself. - Branzino -- $27 ordered on my second visit. It was good, the fish was REALLY well cooked. Crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. Just a filet, boneless, skinless, etc. the flavors were really good but personally, I'm Asian so the sauce (fish sauce) & lettuce + daikon reminds me of something I could make/ have made at home. Probably wouldn't get again, but for those not exposed to Vietnamese food -- give this a try! (Or go to Little Saigon in South Philly lol) Overall, I really enjoyed this place and am excited to come back. Probably would only come for happy hour but definitely worth ordering from the regular menu!
Diner
Pearl and Mary Oyster Bar Philadelphia is very sweet and also worth while.
Stay away !!
Overpriced garbage!!.Extremely stingy on protion, home fries were a small garnishment of tiny dried out miniature hush puppies with no flavor ! Eggs were cold and nasty ! $4 upcharge for French toast and I got one small slice of bread ! I had to beg for jelly !! After asking for it initially. The guy taking orders has absolutely no people skills and is only concerned with the money ! Absolutely disgusting customer service, Definitely will be sticking with the Dutch breakfast counter near Beilers Donuts, they have way bigger portions, real homefries and a lot friendlier towards paying customers !!
Delicious Oysters!
We visited the Reading Terminal for late Breakfast on a Sunday but instead of breakfast, we ended up eating lunch there since we got a seat at the Pearl's Oyster bar. Food comes out quickly! The Fried Oysters were huge and juicy! Great stop for a quick lunch if you're at the Reading Terminal.
Breakfast was good
Had the eggs Benedict with scrapple. Eggs and Hollandaise sauce were perfect. Tried scrapple just to try, I would have preferred ham, just no flavor from the scrapple. I also had the cheese grits, the flavor was good but the consistency still reminds me of wallpaper paste. Service was quick and would recommend for breakfast.
Great Fried Seafood
Great Chowder and Fried Seafood. They offer great fried Fish and Chips, clams, oysters, shrimp. Batter is very crispy and not greasy. A go to for fish and chips.

Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Working on your bid? |
|
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
|
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome
to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
|
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
|
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
Is Appointment Trader is legit ??
I have 1.3k in my balance but I can do nothing with it because my positve sales is 73%.
I can't list new reservation so I can't grow this rate so I am blocked. The support doesn't answer, I wonder if this platform is not a scam

Give the best answerHonest review of AT and advice to new joiners
Forget trying to snipe reservations online by waking up early and booking top restaurants at Carbone or Tatiana or Cote or 4Charles. After 2.5 months of booking reservations by setting up alarms, waking up early to sell appointments. It’s very hard to cash out on this app. During cash out, you have to pay $5 fee +3% transactions fee and max payout per day is $150.
Advice to new users:
- do not mass book reservations
- fill bids only
- don’t try to book reservations online, you need connections and call the restaurant
After putting in about 40 hours of work, I’ve made about $750 sale on this platform but gotten paid $0. Take this with a grain of salt.

Hello All,
I don’t know what else to do as I can’t transfer my cleared funds to my bank account. Customer support is close to non existing and not helpful. How can we keep selling here if we can’t withdraw what we have worked for. They say I have to wait 180 days. This is ridiculous!

Am confused about the payout restrictions. Have nearly $1k sitting, wanted to withdraw some and am surprised to see I can only withdraw $50. If i have to do this everyday I’ll end up paying over $90 in fees just for withdrawing via ACH which doesn’t make much sense to me. Have opened a ticket regarding this, but any input or advice would be appreciated

Has anyone found a way to get a question answered? From what I can tell there is no way to get in touch with anyone that works at/for AT. Other than the occasional admin posting a consultation offer here and there they are non existent. A lot of people have the same issue I have where we cannot cash out earnings. I cannot get my warning medal removed even though I am under the threshold. Sad to say but seems like AT is holding up everyone’s funds currently. Very scary and makes me wonder….Please reply if you read this admins and can help. Tried every way possible to get in touch

I accepted a bid for a popular restaurant in Los Angeles only to receive a phone call shortly thereafter informing me that the reservation had been canceled due to it being listed on AT. I of course need to subsequently cancel the reservation on AT but get this warning that my status will be negatively affected for doing so. I've reached out to customer support about this several times with no response, not sure what to do in this station. Hoping someone can advise.

Give the best answerQuestion about postpaid listings for prepaid bookings
I have a prepaid reservation, but I'm allowed to transfer that reservation to others for a price that I set (up to the total price I paid).
For selling POSTPAID reservations, do I charge the buyer the full amount of the reservation when transferring? And then the buyer pays something on top of that (which is what is listed in the AppointmentTrader listing?)
Major Issue for Seller
My money is being held hostage! Can you please remove my refund medal as I am below the 11% threshold and should be able to withdraw my full daily amount now? I have been teying for a long time to get a reply on this. Major issue for people looking to do good/right like you ask and make positive sales. Being able to access earned revenue is critical and not getting any reply is very concerning for your sellers. Lot of other people having the same issue. Once below the threshold you should auto remove the warning medals.

Give the best answerWell through rate holding money for 180 days
Just wanted to put this out there as I find it quite weird. AT will hold money if your sell through rate is to low. I find this strange as you would think that sell through rate should reflect more on AT not marketing their site well enough to generate sales. It seems weird to punish sellers for listings not selling.
