Small, lovely place with pretty outdoor dining options. Romantic lighting, attentive staff, quality and original dishes prepared well, and overall, very hospitable and friendly. Food was excellent, even to the foodies in our group. Worth it.

Top to bottom, beginning to end, everything about our experience at The Clam was fabulous. The chef Julian did a great job picking appetizers for us. Julio my waiter fantastic!. My wife thought it was the best clam chowder ever and the halibut I had was perfection. It is a dining experience not to be missed.

We enjoyed the lovely outdoor dining space and terrific service. The Parker house rolls, clam dip and clam chowder were delicious as usual. The halibut and greens were nicely prepared. Always wonderful!

My wife and my friends dine at the clam at least once every 2 weeks. In my opinion it has the best food in the city. There spaghetti and clams is wonderful and I've had all their dishes and loved them all. Hooray for the clam.
