The Old Clam House offers a unique dining experience, serving quality seafood dishes in a historic and charming setting. The restaurant's menu features recommended items like Seawich, linguini & clams, and chicken picatta, all prepared with care. The friendly and attentive waiters contribute to a celebratory atmosphere, while the restaurant's character-filled walls blend fine dining and sports bar vibes.
Customers praise the fresh and flavorful seafood offerings, though some note that the simplicity of preparations, such as the mussels in a skillet, may not appeal to everyone’s taste. The Cioppino, a signature dish, is served in a light tomato-based sauce that allows the flavors of the fish, mussels, and clams to shine. Many guests enjoy starting with an amuse-bouche of clam broth, which sets a great tone for the meal.
The interior of The Old Clam House is described as intriguing, with a "pirate of the Caribbean" feel that encourages guests to indulge in a refreshing cocktail. While some customers found the drinks to be on the lighter side and requested a booth for more privacy, the overall service is praised as friendly and attentive. The building’s rich history adds to the cool atmosphere, making it a place worth visiting even if the neighborhood offers limited attractions.
