About this restaurant

  • Great for happy hour

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.

    We try to come to Clark’s every year for our anniversary. This restaurant is that good. The food is always great, the oysters are always great, staff is always nice and accommodating. For Oysters- we got the mere point, fat dog, and foxley river- all good but Mere point is my favorite. For dinner- I got the lobster roll and my wife got the branzino (whole fish w/ red chimichurri sauce- so good but beware of the small bones). They get busy, like most good restaurants do, so make a reservation and set your expectations. Parking can be tricky in the neighborhoods with all the construction so navigate accordingly. Enjoy!

    As always, the best meal ever at Clark’s! This place just doesn’t miss a beat ! I had a reservation and it wnses up being inside and asked the hostess if she can find a spot outside as it was a beautiful day. She was super polite and performed her magic and got us at an outside table . Super sweet ! we had the crab cake and the fish special with a dozen oysters .. the perfect meal! Top the evening off with a wonderful coconut oce cream and we were very satisfied with our meal once again.

    Go regularly, usually more adept service, more knowledgeable on menu and specifics. Ok service but ran out of desired wine and had to switch. It was ok, but just adequate for such a high ticket bill, just no information, advice, it was strange for such an awesome culinary restaurant.
