We arrived on a Friday afternoon and, despite the place being packed, were seated after about a 10-minute wait. Service was a bit slow at first, but once we ordered, everything went smoothly. The West Coast oysters were excellent, and the grilled scallop was one of the best I’ve ever had — perfectly cooked, with the avocado mousse adding a great balance. The peach salad was fresh and flavorful. The spaghetti with clams was outstanding — spicy in just the right way — and the halibut was juicy, pairing beautifully with the corn risotto. The Albariño wine complemented the meal nicely. The only letdown was the desserts, which I wouldn’t recommend. Overall, a very good dining experience — definitely worth visiting.

Solid spot with fresh ingredients. Oysters were decent, salad had good contrast of textures. Calamari and crudo were OK.

Impromptu visit for a drink and an appetizer and really enjoyed the Blue Point Oysters, very meaty! Also had crab dip with house made chips and they are super crispy and tasty! Great neighborhood place.

Came here on a lazy Saturday evening. Staff was so friendly and accommodating. Matthew was such a great server and everything he recommended was fantastic. The food is simple but excellent. The lobster arancini and Kampachi crudo were stand out appetizers. The black sea bass entree was so fresh, with a sauce that was flavorful and paired perfectly. To top it off, we got the snickerdoodle dessert with espresso ice cream (instead of raspberry, as per Matthew’s recommendation) was a perfect way to end the night. Excellent spot overall and definitely coming back.

I can’t say enough about The Clam. This is one of my new favorite places. When we arrived, it was bustling. We enjoyed ourselves so much we were the last ones to leave. We were lucky enough to get a waitress named Julie. If you go, she’s the one. Although everyone there seemed like they would be good. They all also worked well as a team. It’s unusual to see these days. We had a lot of questions about the food and the drink, and Julie hung in there with us with a smile. All of our food was delicious. We cleared our plates. Thanks so much for a wonderful experience.

I came here on a Sunday for lunch (they don’t have brunch which I prefer) in early September on a gorgeous day with one other person. We made the reservation a few days in advance but it wasn’t needed as the restaurant was mostly empty.

I don’t understand why the restaurant wasn’t packed because the experience was truly lovely. The atmosphere of the space is adorable. The food is delicious. My husband said the Clam Chowder was the best he’s ever had. Our service from Gaby was delightful. This a very standard seafood fare experience done well.

We will be back and I would recommend.

What a great birthday date night out! Perfect ambiance, great music, fun vibe, and outstanding food. We got the clam chowder and the squash salad and swordfish and halibut, and we’d order all of it again no questions. Matthew took great care of us and was really kind and pleasant and contributed a lot to this wonderful dinner.

The food was excellent. The service was above & beyond – thank you Michelle for being so accommodating with my food sensitivities. I greatly appreciate the chef for all his changes too. My husband raved about the swordfish & my sea bass was delicious. We never get dessert but your cobbler was worth the calories. Thank you again for the best dinner we have had in the longest time. & having a great wait staff

We really enjoyed the food here so it’s unfortunate that the service diminished the experience. We made a reservation for 7pm, and there were not many other tables filled at the time. We were seated immediately but it took longer than expected to put our order in, especially considering it was not busy when we arrived. I tried to catch the attention of one of the waitresses by looking at them, but it seemed like she tried to avoid eye contact and even turned away. I figured it was a coincidence the first 1-2 times, but after this happened 2 more times it felt intentional. Furthermore, no one told us about the specials (which we later found out from overhearing the nearby table being served that it was soft-shelled crab which sounded pretty good). I have no idea why the service for our party of 2 was so much worse than all the other tables in the restaurant, many of whom were seen promptly and professionally when the restaurant became significantly more packed. Once packed, it was very loud and hard to have a conversation.

As for the food, the lobster and clam strip sliders were amazing. My partner really enjoyed his salmon risotto too. I’d have loved to come back again, but the service was so abysmal I would never set foot in here again.
