What a fantastic experience at Clam Bar! The service is outstanding, warm, attentive and genuinely welcoming. The entrees are all beautifully presented and balanced, the meat selection is incredible, perfectly cooked and literally melts in your mouth. Amazing food, wonderful people and a great atmosphere. A true Sydney gem that I can’t wait to visit again!

The service was phenomenal and the food delicious. Our family of 3 started with the bone marrow appetizer and bread. Super tasty! The eye fillets were perfectly sized and cooked to perfection. We ordered two orders of the tallow fried potatoes and an order of the brussels sprouts. That was a lot of food! Of course, we left a little room for dessert and ordered two of the rhubarb crumble with vanilla ice cream. Delicious!

    Delicious food, friendly & attentive service, great cocktails. Went for the quick fire menu which was great value & absolutely delicious, we like to eat so we added a couple of extras & was stuffed! Highlights were the prawn toast & honey cake! Even though we were on quick fire we didnt feel rushed at all, all the service staff were lovely. We had a few different cocktails which were all great! Would return in a heartbeat
