Went on a quiet Monday night when there was no reservation fee. Because of this, I would not pay a reservation fee on a Friday night. The service and food was great and I would recommend a slow night to check it out.

Wonderful food and an amazing view of the ocean. Unfortunately, our server Lisa, was not very friendly and we felt very rushed by her even though the restaurant was just half full.

There are very few restaurants that give you first class service and great food. Clay Hill fits the bill. It is the romantic date night spot. It is also a spot to catch up with friends. In full disclosure our daughter had a beautiful reception at Clay Hill 10 years ago. The staff was wonderful, food and ambiance were perfect and everyone had a great time. I recommend Clay Hill Farm any chance I get!
