R.I.P. MidAtlantic
…and another restaurant bites the dust. In today’s devastating local business news, Philly.com has confirmed that MidAtlantic, Daniel Stern’s 37th and Market restaurant, will be closing its doors on February 24. Luckily, Stern’s other joint, R2L (on 16th), is still open for business. Rumors are swirling amongst the foodie community that an employee of famed chef Steven Starr toured the space, so hopefully we won’t be lacking a major Family Weekend eatery for too long.

Dude…
Famed “chef” Steven Starr?!?!
That just completely negated any credibility this post had. Do some research.
Agreed with fact check–
Steven Starr is a business manager…
this is really sad – they had great food. the restaurant was plagued by a terrible location. i can’t imagine even someone as creative as starr bringing large crowds and turning tables to 37 and market. no foot traffic, unless you’re going to penn presby.
Too bad, they had one of the better happy hours around actually. Smart beer selections, and their home-made smokehouse dog was really good…
