Clark's features classic American seafood with an emphasis on freshness, local products, simple preparation, attention to detail, and clean presentation.
Classic coastal cooking from the Texas Gulf to the Northeastern Seaboard influences Clark's menu. A large portion of the concept is devoted to oysters, raw bar, seafood, and caviar. We procure the freshest oysters from small harvesters around North America and serve cold seafood platters featuring super fresh daily specials.

It's extremely loud during the lunch hour, and we wonder why the music is so loud. Also, the music seems to cater more to the younger staff rather than the majority of patrons.

Greeted by a lovely lady who welcomed us to a choice of tables! How sweet is that!!Price took care of everything just right! Loved everything about our dining experience. Bubbles, oysters… especially the Massachusetts Boomamoto… PEI’s couldn’t compare this time. Great little bread and butter radish treat, awesome wedge salad with the incredible lardon nuggets, red fish grilled to perfection and loved the red chimmichurri sauce, dahlin! And finally my all time favorite dessert, affogato!!! Yumm!!What a happy birthday it was! Thank you, Clarks! See you again soon! 🥂🙏🏻🥂

This was our first time visiting Clarks. We got two cocktails, clam chowder, blackened swordfish sandwich with fries, and clam/mussels in white wine sauce. Cocktails and clam chowder were great! Didn’t love the greasiness of the bread on the sandwich and the bread that came with the clams and mussels. Not a huge string straw fry gal so didn’t love the fries. A bunch of the clams weren’t cleaned well and had gritty sand when eating. Fortunately there was a huge pot of them without sand to make up for it. The space inside is tight and crammed. The staff have a working station squeezed up right next to the restroom so you have to squeeze past them to use the facilities. Overall experience was just average and okay for the price.
