I like that the menu rotates, this keeps things fun and fresh. The venue itself is pretty small, but cozy. The restaurant has a high class atmosphere with big plates, small serving sizes, and artful topping displays. The drinks took a while to come out, but the food arrived quickly, especially given the size of our party. I enjoyed the Cosmo and Wanda cocktail. The thyme syrup is a unique addition. My scallops and halibut were both cooked perfectly! They did a better job than many seafood restaurants in this respect. The sunchoke basil puree was delicious on the scallops, they were some of the best that I've ever had. But the fish needed to be seasoned, it was too bland. I saw other reviews mentioning delicious bread. We were not offered any, but this would have helped add to the meal. Bread or more substantial sides (instead of the toppings) are definitely needed, since the portions are on the smaller side. The carrot cake was pretty sweet, but a good way to end the meal. I loved the citrus crumble and the frosting. Next time I want to try one of the more exotic menu items.

This is mostly a high priced place. While changes have been made overtime this is a great place to relax and enjoy great food and company. Also they are open for Thanksgiving! But remember it can be A bit pricey.

We dined here for the first time on Valentine's Day! Good thing we had a reservation because it was packed. We enjoyed some amazing wine with our dinner. I got the beef cheek and he got this fish special. I like that they are constantly changing the menu and coming up with new creative offerings. The German chocolate cake was outstanding. I would definitely come here again to try more dishes. The ambiance is nice but it's a little tricky to get to as it's in the back of an old building that you wouldn't expect the restaurant to be inside of. There is plentiful parking and the service was fast despite being crowded.

The Fried Chicken thigh was 3x larger than the bun it was served on. This sandwich turned into a sloppy mess. Side salad served w sandwich lacked a dressing. “ Caesar” w Schnitzel salad entree was bland and flavorless. If u r going to do a riff on a traditional Caesar then it must deliver a flavor greater than a Caesar. Please put salt and pepper on the table. 1 server for the entire room at lunch was overwhelmed

Food was excellent, we sat by the service area, we experienced the way many chefs work in their real environments.

Wow, kicking ourselves that we haven't visited here sooner! What a gem of a restaurant; Dimitri and Victor took excellent care of us; we'll definitely be back again. Highly recommend trying their tasting menu. The wine pairings were spot on. Excellent service and presentation.

Four of us dined and we all agreed the food was fantastic. Clarity offers top quality food and dining experience. If you haven't been back lately, it's time to try it again!

The last time I came here was 7 years ago. And it was incredibly impressive. But this time it was incredibly disappointing.The service is still great. But the food isn’t anywhere near the level it used to be. The flavors are disappointing and the selection isn’t modern. The restaurant would be a 3 but for the prices — the high prices lower the restaurant to a 2 because the expectation is much greater.

Finally got a chance to try this restaurant for a late Valentines dinner on the 15th. My husband and I were very impressed with the ingredients, flavors and attentive staff. Will definitely be adding this restaurant to the rotation for special occasions.

We had a party of 10 in a private room. The waiter didn’t get anything right and had a bad attitude. He just kept recommending ordering more and expensive items on the menu. He was snarky and said things like, “and you’re ordering just that for the whole table?” when we ordered 4 appetizers for the table. Also said, “So just 2 bottles for the all of you?” when ordering wine. 1 person doesn’t drink, 2 had beer, and we also ordered 3 $25/drink cocktail. He couldn’t remember anyone’s orders and the food was mediocre for the price. He brought 4 desserts instead of the 3 we had ordered and then charged us for it. I guess the mandatory 22% gratuity made it ok for him to be rude.

Recently dined at 6pm diner time. The bill for the pasta dish was 33.00 on the menu. The charge was 34. I pointed out to the waiter the error. But nothing was corrected. Disappointing for a high end restaurant with high prices- I had better food for better prices.
