Visit for the first time today and had a great time. Amazing restaurant with great atmosphere. Our server Will was very attentive with a lovely attitude. We were also asked how things were going by the Manager Megan while waiting on our food, and she even took a picture of us while we had lunch as a family. I can’t wait to come back in the summer time, and eat some amazing oysters!

Stopped at CK Pearl while passing through from Boston to New Hampshire, and honestly, it ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. The views alone are worth the stop — absolutely stunning spot to just relax and enjoy the water.

We tried the clam chowder (hands down the best I’ve ever had), lobster bisque, four different kinds of oysters, and a warm lobster roll that was just perfect. Everything was super fresh and full of flavor.

Our server was awesome — friendly, attentive, and really knowledgeable about the menu. Huge kudos to him and the chefs for the quality and care that clearly go into everything here.

If you’re anywhere nearby, definitely make the stop. Great food, great drinks, great vibes — perfect way to enjoy a day with my wife next to those amazing views.

Tied for best wings in MA. Smoked and delicate flavor, great service, and a very pleasant view of some water while you dine. This place is a gem and everyone should try it. Would recommend all day.

My husband and I had an unforgettable dining experience at CK Pearl in Essex, Ma! From start to finish, everything was perfect. We started with the freshest oysters so delicious, followed with the best fish and chips we’ve ever had flavorful and cooked perfectly crispy, flaky, and flavorful with the best fries

We sipped on a dirty martinis that were perfectly chilled and balanced, and we ended the night with a slice of Spanish almond raspberry cake that was absolutely divine! Moist, nutty, and just the right touch of sweetness. The food, ambiance and the waterfront views made for a truly special night. Can’t wait to go back!

Excellent service and food was delicious. We got lucky and was able to secure a table
In the sceeened in patio area, which is right on the water and fun to watch the boats pass by. The menu had some really interesting options and also the traditional north shore seafoods (haddock, clam strips etc)
The apps were my fav part, the chowda came with a fried clam strip on top, and also friend the blueberry scallops (pictured)

In my opinion, It’s a shame this restaurant doesn’t score a little higher (it was a 4.4 with 677 reviews as of 2/20/26). The fried clams here are, somehow, even better than the excellent fried clams just down the street at the very famous Woodman’s of Essex restaurant. Also, the great food doesn’t stop at the fried clams; everything on CK Pearl’s menu is either a category-killer or close to it. I’d just like locals and those visiting to know that the food here is Excellent. Additionally, it affords a wonderful view of the Essex River.

Stopped in after a long walk to refuel. The food is delicious and can be noisy. View of the Essex River is always gorgeous especially on sunny days. The eggs Benedict were done just right and the fries crunchy out and soft inside. The omelette was cooked just right. Will definitely visit again.

I went here for lunch with a colleague and it was a great choice! It is located right along the Essex River, and we had gorgeous views. We both started with tasty mocktails, and I got the blackened chicken salad, which came in a large portion with plenty of chicken. My only complaint is that there were too many tortilla strips. Also, I would recommend getting it undressed. My colleague got the steak tips, and they were cooked perfectly and absolutely delicious! Great spot on a sunny day

I was very disappointed in my lobster roll. It was not fresh lobster meat /previously frozen . When you travel 45 minutes to Essex you would think anything seafood would be fresh !!! No tail meat either . Service and drinks were great . Woodmans across the street had a great lobster roll . I was very disappointed ☹️
