Clark’s Seafood & Chop House

Good food, great atmosphere, but the wait staff needs help. He never asked us if we wanted anything from the bar, so that cut our bill in half… thanks! We’ll come back because the food is good.

After coming to Clark’s a couple years ago, and absolutely loving it, we were excited to be back and town and able to return.
Food Quality– The food was amazing! I had the Hurricane Chicken, which was amazing! Asparagus was a little over cooked, but still tasty. We had gator bites as an appetizer, which were flat out awesome
Service– our waiter was great, very professional. Only issue was, we didn’t get our salads… but the manager came out and apologies, and they gave us a discount on our meal.
Overall, this was another great experience at Clark’s, and had it not been for the salad mishap, there would be a 5 star rating. As is, 4.75 stars!

Lunch at Clark’s was wonderful. The service was extremely welcoming and helpful with meal suggestions, as well as timely. The food was delicious. We had the vodka rigatoni with grilled chicken and a grilled salmon salad. The dressings for the salad were very light but extremely tasty. My husband thought the rigatoni was equally tasty. We will enjoy coming back here.

Nice atmosphere and great food. The house salad with a freshly baked croissant is the best. The Hurricane Chicken with crab cake and shrimp was excellent. Also had one of best rib eye steaks ever. We have been there several times and the food and service is consistently good

We came here for lunch. Great atmosphere and views. Super outdoor dining area but it would have been nicer if the waiter hadn’t stood on the chair and unzipped/​rolled up the plastic wall around the outdoor dining while we sitting right there eating. Tacky. Also, we had a great ahi tuna appetizer but the sauce was out of a bottle — general tso’s sauce. Seriously folks, for the price can’t the chef whip up his own sauce? Even the waiter admitted it was out of a bottle. (Tacky). The blackened lunch flounder was great. Spot on. Spicy and cooked well. A tad disappointing for the price. Excellent service. And chef– sauces are easy — make one!!!

This place was amazing. Hubby and I were in Myrtle for a weekend getaway. We stayed next door to the restaurant. The location was beautiful, right on the harbor. The ambiance was perfect. Dinner Time wasn’t too busy. Drinks and food were very good. Would definitely return next time we’re in town!

Clark’s Seafood sits on an edge of the Marina in Little River, SC off highway 17. The food was good, but not great. It took almost 2 hours for our party of 9 to receive our main course due to «computer glitches.» Their recovery service was outstanding, and the view was beautiful.

Great view of the marina is the first thing you see and the the menu is very interesting. We started with an appetizer of bacon wrapped scallops served with orange marmalade and a balsamic reduction. very good! The house salad was also very good just wish it had been more chilled. I ordered the Mediterranean Pork Chops and my husband had the Ahi Tuna steak cooked rare. PERFECT! I do think the risotto was flavorful but «over worked» so it was a tad mushy. My husband had the fingerling potatoes and they were very nice. Dale was our server and he was awesome. attentive and informative. The atmosphere is very appealing and charming as well.
All in all a nice experience and we will go again.

I had the filet mignon with a side order of creamed spinach. The filet was very tasty but wasn’t «thick» as described on the menu. It was more like a steak you would buy at the supermarket and cook yourself. It comes with one side order and I chose the creamed spinach. It was heavy on the «cream» and very light on the spinach. My wife glanced at it and asked me what kind of soup it was. It tasted OK but creamed spinach needs to have some actual clumps of spinach in it.
On the plus side, we sat on the deck and the view is great — overlooking the Coquina Harbor Marina. It was early spring and a little chilly. When we mentioned it the waiters immediately fired up the outside heaters and it became very pleasant. Service overall was great.
I give the food a 2 and the experience a 4 — so a 3 on average.

Stopped in for lunch. Had the fried flounder — it was really good. Light coating and cook perfect. Also had the french onion soup — really good. Service was great throughout.

Good food and nice ambience. Im a bit surprised that kids’ meals were $ 10 each but their chicken tenders were excellent. She-​crab soup was good, not great. My Honey Bourbon Chicken Sandwich was good but the sauce did not stand out. My wife’s flounder was excellent. Service was excellent as well.

14 hours running a boat from Morehead City North Carolina coming in to a restaurant and having the maitre d tell you I’m sorry sir we just closed our kitchen but if you were sent over from the hotel we find something I wouldn’t go back here for all the tea in China they just don’t know hospitality or courtesy this is one pissed off boat captain

Had a Clarks burger and mashed potatoes for lunch entrée and the she crab soup as an appetizer. The soup was surprisingly good since MD/​VA seem to have the best she crab soup I’ve had.
The burger was really good! Juicy, thick and with a BBQ Blue Cheese on top. The lunch and specials menu is pretty good and a nice environment overall. The bar is nice and plenty of beer options.
I will definitely come back when I’m back in SC.

We enjoyed this place when it was Umbertos. Unfortunately Clarks did not stand up to the comparison to it. Over the phone the gluten free options were plentiful and understood by the staff. At the restaurant the options were limited for celiac people and the waitress sucked. Steak was overcooked. Pork chop is only available medium well to well done. Ridiculous. Risotto is a solid piece instead of creamy goodness. Scallops gritty. Fried green tomatoes were pretty good.
If this weren’t Little River Clarks would get 1 star, but considering the alternatives it gets 2. Parsons table is more expensive but much more worth it if you like food.

Great restaurant experience all around. The atmosphere was great, and the set up is beautiful with the view out the back. Our waiter, Chad (I think), was extremely knowledgable about everything.
The Burgundy Lamb was delicious, the Cesar salad was good. The house salad was better for sure, ask about their dressing for that.
Over all this was a great eat. We had a party of nine and reserved a table hours in advance. We were seated as we arrived. This isn’t a cheap restaurant so expect a little more than normal. ⁵⁄₅ for sure.

This is the place we like to go to for groups in the North Myrtle Beach Area. Our family, both sides, has both finicky eaters and eaters with dietary restrictions. I guess most do. Clark’s is a place where we can find something for everyone in our family. It comes with a bit higher price than we can pay for every night, but once while on vacation is ok.
They have a menu that includes great steaks, really good seafood, some chicken dishes I haven’t tried because they have steak and seafood, as well as a kids menu that covers the bases. Every time we have been there, the food has been cooked as requested, meats to perfection and special requests accommodated.
If there is a drawback, it’s that they are so popular you will have to wait. They do take «reservations» which is more like call ahead seating. They warn you at the time you set the reservation that you will be «priority» on the list when your time is set for but that you may have to wait. We always have to wait at least thirty minutes. Our trick is to set our reservation for a specific time and then arrive 30 minutes early so we can eat at the time we want. I am not sure if we are tricking the system or ourselves, but we are happier this way so I guess it works.
While waiting, there are some distractions nearby. There is a nice little shop next door that has some cool items for sale. It is mostly oriented towards women’s accessories and clothing. There are a couple of ring-​toss posts outside to entertain the kids, both big and small. The coolest thing is the marina. The restaurant overlooks a marina with all types of watercraft. It is good for an outdoor stroll and sites to keep everyone visually stimulated. The restaurant gives you a «pager» so when your time for seating arrives, you are notified wherever you may be.
All-​in-​all, this place is really good and hits all of our hot buttons; not too dressy, close enough to not have to travel, good food with fairly reasonable prices. 4 Stars.

Prices were average for what it was. I had the Surf and Turf and it was undeniable very good. This and the company I was with were really the only pleasant parts of my experience.
The service was lousy. Someone from my party actually got up at one point and went and got water for himself. If I had not been with family I would have left. Will avoid returning in the future.

We went here because of the coupon for the free appetizer, which was delicious. We ended up getting the Firecracker Shrimp and the fried calamari since we had two parties. Both were phenomenal.
For dinner I had the lamb chops with asparagus. Both were amazing!
Make sure you get a house salad with the house dressing… it’s basically a honey mustard with bacon grease mixed in… delicious to say the least.
Ryan was an excellent server.

As a first time visitor to myrtle beach, we have had the pleasure of visiting several area restaurants. Clarks topped the list so far with its quiet ambience — a far cry from many of the other restaurants with massive Ines of tourists. We were able to sit outside overlooking the marina. It was a, beautiful evening to dine al fresco with a nice breeze and great music playing. Our waiter, Dale was professional and personable.
We both enjoyed the prime rib, an excellent cut. Probably one of the best cuts I’ve had in recent memory. It was prepared exactly as I liked it. Risotto on the side was delicious, perfectly prepared — creamy yet firm.
The best part of dinner was the chocolate lava cake with carmel pecan Filling and vanilla ice cream. It was hot, moist, and. Chocolate to perfection. I would absolutely go again if I was in Myrtle Beach.

WOW! I was a little hesitant to Unilocal this place because I know it will lead to large crowds. haha Jk. This place was amazing. Simply amazing. My gf and I loved everything about our experience and dinner. Were not a very formal couple, meaning we don’t need to sit at a table with candlelight. We wanted to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful scenery and this place didn’t disappoint. We actually sat at the outdoor bar and had quite possibly the best meal I ever ate in the MB/​NMB/​Little River area. Our bartender was awesome and fun to talk with as well.
If you look at my Unilocaling past I don’t give 5 Star reviews. This place nailed it! Great job Clark’s. See you in September!
