   We were so thankful to be invited to this amazing event. We can not wait for the next one (please tell me there is a next one). As a Newfoundlander - I was so proud and thankful to see the food I grew up with on that stage, in an awesome space elevated to new levels. The Fish and Brewis was the first time I have had it since my Nan (Newfie grandma) passed away 9 years ago. Thank you for a night that I won’t forget.

   We tried a few different dishes. I would say the iceberg salad and the chowder were the best. Donair meat was on the dry side. Shrimp cocktail was okay…I wish the cocktail sauce had more tang / flavour. Scallops and bacon were a little too salty. Scallop texture was excellent. I would go back and try a few other dishes. Overall a nice dining experience.

   Great food and great ambiance. Delicious and inventive.All four of us loved the food.Unfortunately the service was poor. The waiter failed to mention raw clams were not available with the raw plate before it arrived. Didn’t even call it out. We were two couples who asked for separate bills before we ordered . They acknowledged this , but then at the end of service presented us with one bill saying they couldn’t split it. We told them this was not acceptable and surprise surprise- 5 minutes later we got two bills. We eat out frequently and appreciate and respect the service we receive. Our initial server stopped serving us half way through the dinner. When we politely tried to get his attention for the cheque he made some sarcastic gestures and his colleague delivered the bill. Frankly - he didn’t seem all there actually. The last 15 minutes of our experience was poor and uncomfortable. We won’t be back.

    Bar Clam offers a great menu of seafood, focussed items in a modest atmosphere and a great layout for conversing with friends as well as the staff. Great selection of cocktails and nonalcoholic beers for those that are looking and a menu that is fresh innovative. We stood up most was the outstanding service.
