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.

Price took such good care to be sure we had everything we wanted. The food was great! Such a special place for us! The fruits de mer was very good and so were the dressed oysters and of course the mussels and clams sauce was out of this world!!! The snapper and grits was also superb!! Cocktails not quite as snazzy as they used to be. Not super cold as a good shaken or stirred drink should be. No frost! Loved the little lime twirl on my cosmo though! But we still had a fabulous time!! ! Thank you!!!!

Really amazing experience! I especially loved the quality and freshness of the oysters. The red snapper ceviche was so fresh and just the perfect combination with citrus, orange and cilantro. The tilefish with garlic butter just melted in your mouth. Amazing! I even loved how they did the salads with very simple olive oil and lemon. Truly amazing foodie experience! Landry did an incredible job serving us! The service, food and dining experience was outstanding!

We visited Clark's with someone disabled and wheelchair confined. The restaurant was aware of this and seated us at a table at the very end of a row of tables close to the front window of the restaurant. The unfortunate thing was that the wheelchair was wider than the space to get behind the people sitting at the tables ahead of ours, so that our friend needed to excuse himself to get by. Some people had to get up and move out of the way, which caused him to disrupt others' meals. The seating was tight, but sufficient. The physicality of the restaurant was long and skinny and not spacious. The food was fresh and outstanding. Prices were consistent with market price. Overall it was a pleasant, enjoyable, delicious experience. We can't wait to come back often!

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.
