The waiter Sam was excellent! We had a birthday group, and service was outstanding, ambience was great for us, and food great! Drinks were very good. This would be a great place for a romantic dinner or special occasion.

Good food and great wait service as expected. One of the Hostesses was a bit snotty, but two co-workers stepped in and took care of us. She must have been having a bad night.

Wonderful atmosphere and great service. Perfect for a celebration dinner. We were celebrating our anniversary and were happy to have special touches like a personal message on the menu and champagne offered to us before we ordered. Dinner and drinks were delicious. The peanut butter fudge dessert was amazing.

Nestled in the heart of the Old Market, Clio offers a dining experience that instantly transports you to the Mediterranean coast. The ambiance is warm, inviting, and perfect for a family-style meal, which is exactly how we enjoyed it. Our meal began with an assortment of four dips accompanied by fresh, warm pita bread. Each dip was bursting with flavor, setting the stage for what would be a truly memorable meal. For our mains, we shared the chicken kebabs, salmon kebabs, shawarma-spiced half chicken, and lamb tagine. Every dish was impeccably prepared and delicious, but the salmon kebabs were the standout. Their perfect seasoning and tender texture made them the star of the evening. To round out the meal, we indulged in the sticky toffee pudding with date ice cream—a dessert so divine it’s worth a visit to Clio on its own. Special mention to our server, Addison, who provided impeccable service. She was funny, sweet, attentive, knowledgeable, and contributed greatly to the wonderful dining experience. Clio is a gem for anyone looking for Mediterranean flavors served with warmth and flair. Highly recommended!

atmosphere was interesting. The service was mostly friendly and the food and oysters were delicious.
