Clara's — Restaurant in New York

Last night, I ordered two items from this establishment: loaded cheese fries and sweet honey ginger wings. I was extremely disappointed.

The loaded cheese fries are marketed as being smothered in cheddar cheese and bacon. However, what I received was completely different—my fries were drenched in American cheese.

When I called the restaurant to address this, the person who answered informed me that they sometimes switch to American if they run out of cheddar. This lack of transparency is unacceptable.

There was no indication of this policy provided to customers, either on the menu or prior to my order, which is misleading. A reputable restaurant would reach out to the customer in such cases rather than make a unilateral decision. The difference between American cheese and cheddar is significant, and I expect to receive what was advertised.

Additionally, the wings were overcooked to the point of being difficult to bite into, let alone chew.

Overall, my experience was horrible. I cannot recommend this place to anyone, as they clearly engage in false advertising and take no responsibility for misleading their customers.

Total amount spent for these two items: 49.00

Loaded cheese fries: 17.00 Wings:17.00

These prices should guarantee a significantly better experience than what I encountered. The food was subpar, and my interaction with the employee on the phone was even more...

You should come to Clara's.

Best Manishewitz!

It's billed as a sports bar, but don't let it deter you if you are not a superfan.

Sure, they have all the sports packages on multiple screens and projectors. They have a well chosen draft and bottle beer selection, solid bartenders for your drinky needs, and though their fans are energetic, don't expect toxic masculinity.

You should expect a nice meal - all their food is great. I recommend the fish tacos, fried fish, wings, excellent burgers (with a double patty if you're hungry), a well dressed salad, and a surprisingly amazing lobster roll (surprising because this place is not dockside). The deviled eggs are a nice touch as well.

You should also expect a friendly vibe. The kitchen stays open late, which is a awesome because things wrap up early in this neighborhood, making it a solid opportunity if you are starving at midnight.

The owner/manager, is friendly and welcoming, and will bend over backwards to make sure you have...

I’ve been coming to Clara’s in Brooklyn for about seven years now, and it continues to be one of my favorite spots. As a Brooklyn native, born and raised, I can honestly say this place has excellent bar food… Some of the best around. I barely even drink, but I still love coming here just for the food and the low-key, welcoming vibe. Everything I’ve tried over the years has been consistently good, so shout out to the people back there cooking!

On my most recent visit, the experience was truly exceptional thanks to our waiter, Quinn. He was upbeat, bubbly, personable, and funny — the kind of service that makes you feel right at home. His energy made the night memorable and reminded me why I keep coming back. After this visit, I know I’ll be coming more often (it’s been 5 months since my last visit). Hopefully Quinn gets the recognition he deserves and if we’re luckily he’ll be working next...
