Excellent food, ambience make for a great night out. Andy and the team have put together another winner with Clam Bar. Already having favoured other restaurants. Pellegrino 2000 and sadly now closed Bistro 916 I have a new favourite. All the food was incredible, but particularly liked the strip steak and creamed spinach.
