A very cool place. Really nice outdoor seating area with a stage I assume for music in season. It was a cool October evening but there was one long table with folks at it. Two heat made it nice.
Inside is a horshoe bar which is sharp. A number of tables are also inside. Football games were on the TV’s. Music was being played but not to loud. We sat off to the side and was easy to chat. Very informal setting
A very simple menu. Burgers and such. Full bar.
There were 3 of us. One ordered the brisket nachos which were loaded. Very good. Another had a basic burger which was cooked to order just right. Came with a large slice of red onion and a slice of tomatoe. For a side he had the fruit cup which was very fresh and good.
I ordered the 4 Oz smash burger with water tots. Burger was excellent
Tots were Luke warm. When I told the server he brought me a fresh hot plate of tots. NICE.
Two of us also ordered the cucumber salad which was very tasty.
Prices seemed very fair as none of us paid more than $20.
For a Sunday night place was busy and the service was quick and good.
Found a parking place outnfeont. Very happy with our meal here. Hope to come back

Universal Joint is the definition of a small-town hidden gem. My wife and I stopped in on our anniversary and couldn’t have picked a better place. The food was phenomenal—she ordered the brisket tacos and they were packed with flavor, perfectly cooked, and downright addictive. I had the gyro with cucumber salad, and it was hands-down one of the best gyros I’ve had anywhere. Fresh, flavorful, and made with care.
The bar was great, the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, and it felt like one of those places the locals want to keep to themselves. If you’re looking for amazing food, a great drink, and a laid-back vibe with real character, Universal Joint is a must-stop. We’ll absolutely be back—anniversary or not!

A cool place to hang, get a brew and some eats. Had the Gyro which was very good. Friendly and prompt service. Clayton is just a hip town to visit now!

Would give 3.5 stars if I could. The food was decent. The wings barely had any Buffalo sauce on them, but ranch was good. I had the brisket dip sandwich. All I could taste was smoke, like it was kinda overpowering. I couldn’t taste the cheese or au jus really. Sweet potato waffle fries were great though. Overall, okay place but won’t be making a point to visit again.

Very cozy, laidback burger joint with eclectic decor. It was a little crowded – obviously a very popular spot. Our server was attentive and quick to meet our needs. The food was fantastic – the house-made black bean burger was a godsend to a vegetarian such as myself. Portions were very generous for the price. We’d come back again if we were local!

Cool place, good food, good atmosphere. People bring dogs of all sizes. If you have a little weenie dog I’d leave it at home.

This is a great place for families or couples. DJ is an awesome waiter. He was very knowledgeable of the menu items and very friendly. I ordered the smokehouse burger, and my wife ordered the mushroom quesadilla. They were both awesome.

Nice outdoor setting with a decent selection of beers. Good burger with a tomato that nobody should eat. Fries were nice. On a good day this is probably a nice restaurant, it certainly is popular.
Understaffed, maybe because Sunday afternoon, but people wait while staring at unused tables. Management seemed non-existent.
Very, very short pour on a glass of wine, the waiter stared blankly when mentioned. Asked if we could get the chips and salsa that accompanied an entree before the meal. Supposedly not a problem but never arrived. Also did not arrive with the actual meal until we said something. Not nearly enough salsa in the tiny to-go cup, and they charge .50 for an extra.
Check arrived without requesting it, never asked if we wanted dessert or anything else. Maybe they should upsell the menu instead of squeezing profits out of wine and salsa.

Universal Joint in Clayton is always a good place to go enjoy a nice meal. Food is always good. Service is always good and prices are fair. Parking is street parking or parking behind the restaurant. This place is usually pretty busy. You can eat indoor or outside. Pets are welcome outside. They do have a small stage for music but we have never been there when there was music. Great atmosphere. Fun place to join friends or take friends who are visiting from out of town.

The BBQ Brisket Nachos were off the chain, good! We ordered them and then everyone else at the bar started ordering them. Service was awesome and they didn’t mind me sitting at the bar even though I was only drinking water. There was indoor or outdoor seating available. Great place to stop in when on the bikes and a even better place to spend a Saturday afternoon with friends.
