Fathom Seafood House in pictures
Stopped into Fathom Seafood House (200 E. Girard Ave.) yesterday, its first official day in business, to snag a few pix for all y'all Meal Ticketers. (Some previous coverage here and here.) Mike Stollenwerk's casual oyster-slurping bar looks great, from the nautical-themed tables looking out onto Girard to the fully stocked shucking station elevated on a platform abutting the open kitchen. (The Fish/Little Fish owner jokes that it'll double as a DJ booth when the sun sets.) Fathom's menu, accompanied by 10 beers on draft, is bar food Stollenwerk's way, its main portion topping out at $14. (Pictured: the cod-filled pierogi, with bacon, onions and brown butter, and salmon burger with maple mustard.) The lobster grilled cheese and swordfish schnitzel sound like surefire signatures, but we're also lusting after the raw bar offerings — rotating East and West Coast oysters, Jonah crab claws, marinated mussels and halved lobsters among them. Stollenwerk says Fathom will go from 4 p.m. to "close" on weekdays, and open around midday for lunch on the weekends. His plan is to eventually open in the a.m. hours on weekends for kegs 'n' eggs-style service.
Yum lobster grilled cheese.
