    I truly loved The Clock , the ambiance , food and Mark the server was outstanding. The Manager had initially set a table not in the best location , he was nice to offer to switch our tables which really emphasizes the view and ambience of the restaurant’s. decor and music. I do recommend this restaurant if you want the best steak and atmosphere.

    Unfortunately, couldn’t order the food because our server came for our drink orders, and then wasn’t seen again. Rated 1 star because we didn’t eat, and I can’t post my review unless I rate everything. Definitely have to go on a slow day. Ambience is beautiful, drinks are good, maybe next time we can order food. I got the Tropical Mango martini, very delicious.

    We had dinner here for Valentine’s Day. The ambiance was nice, and our waiter was attentive. Our food arrived quickly, and we had no complaints about the quality or service. However, the drinks were just okay, and nothing about this restaurant stood out enough to make us want to return.

    The vibes were there, Music was great, the dark atmosphere for a date night was there, just wish they had more on the menu.. maybe a raw bar like some oysters or crab for an appetizer! That would’ve made it great for me! Still a great date spot!

    Second visit, not near as good as the first. Steal woefully undercooked, but more important, while filet mignon shaped, it was definitely not a filet cut! Appetizers were pretty good, the grilled cheese is legit!! May go back again, may not, will decide at the time.

    I tried The Clock for a date night and it was the perfect experience. The ambience is really elegant and intimate. I loved the live saxophone during dinner as well. Their drinks are amazing! I had the bottom steak and Mac and cheese. The Mac and cheese was a little salty but still had a great flavor and the steak was juicy and tender (paired with the olive oil herb mix).
