What diners are saying
Celebrated for its cozy, intimate vibe and generous portions, Dr. Clark impresses diners with a unique mix of sashimi and Hokkaido-style specialties. Guests rave about standout dishes like the Scallop Risotto, stir-fry udon, and the popular lamb mains, which can be grilled tableside or ordered as chops. The service receives high praise, particularly for bartenders like Pete who embody true hospitality, though late-night diners should note the energetic shift when karaoke begins around 10:30 PM.
