    Paninis and mozzarella in carrozza. Delicious!

    My wife and I just went back a second time, for dinner with our whole family. This place is PERFECT: wonderful thoughtful staff, beautiful setting on the ocean, and GREAT FOOD. The pizza, light, fluffy and crisp with homemade dough, great salads, great paninis, great desserts, and portions large enough to bring half home. The only thing they need is a bigger sign to let more people experience how great they are.

I recently tried their new spring menu and everything hit. Apps: Crabby gabby sushi roll -- my fave at a B2 restaurant and I loved it here as well! Bruschetta burrata -- abundant and the burrata was soo fresh. Baked Mac and cheese with lobster -- the creamiest mac and cheese and big chunks of meaty lobster. Scarpiello wings -- sticky and savory perfection. Could've made a made off this alone! Entrees: Pan seared scallops with polenta -- the scallops were nice and tender and seared very nicely. Linguine & clams with red sauce -- very generous with the clams and the sauce was flavored very well. Cheesesteak -- tender, juicy, huge portion and served on amazing bread. Deliciously cut fries too. Drinks: Berry loca margarita -- not even a big marg person and I loved this. Spring fling sangria -- my friend downed hers! Dessert: Chocolate lava cake -- oozing with chocolate. Sooo delicious. Can't skip this! Service was awesome -- our waiters were so friendly and helpful. I like the cozy and rustic vibes of the restaurant, makes it a welcoming spot. Definitely will be back.

    We went to Spring Lake beach this weekend and we were looking for a good restaurant. We found Blend…read moreby Chef Lou. It's a nice, quiet venue and the staff were very attentive and friendly. We started with the bread, a focaccia, which was served with an olive oil that had a large roasted garlic in it. It was a delicious starter, and complimented our Caesar salad. The Caesar salad was 'different' - aren't they all? I've been experiencing very different types - the one tonight had a subtle dressing - with a subdued sweetness. The grated Parmesan and Breadcrumbs smothered the salad - when you see the picture, you'll understand. It was a good salad, however I would have preferred less grating and more dressing. Next up, the Waygu Meatballs, in a delicious San Marzano tomato sauce. The meatballs were excellent. I was mystified by the accompanying 'jar' of 'basil' ricotta. See attached picture-it's a large amount of ricotta - I tasted it - it was very creamy but the basil was faintly noticeable. I added a little to a meatball and it didn't enhance the 'bite' at all. I was embarrassed leaving this large jar of cheese. We shared the two entrees - the first, Sea Bass on a bed of mashed potatoes was cooked perfectly and had the most delicate taste. It was 'too delicate', if there is such a thing as- for they say, ' good fish, doesn't taste like fish '. However, the fish needed seasoning or sauce - one or the other, or both. The next entree was the mushroom house made ravioli - a tender pasta with a mushroom filling covered in a creamy, earthy mushroom sauce. We also ordered a side of sautéed wild mushrooms and added those to the ravioli - it was a wonderful dish.

    Went here for our anniversary dinner. Service was very good, ambience was nice--not romantic but…read morenice, laid back. Food was very good also. The worst part was some of the tables are very close so sitting next to an obnoxious guy makes it hard to ignore. Anyway, the food: we each got a salad: Caesar salad dressing was in point, but TOO much cheese and the croutons were stale but there were t that many of those so no biggie. Hubby got the Tre colore salad which was a special & he loved it. For dinner we both did specials: chicken rollatini (amazing! Highlight dish of the evening) & husband got the Salmon Oscar which was very good too. Took dresser home as we often do bc we were stuffed: ring ding for 2. WOW! The pastry chef there is a genius and super talented, it was SO GOOD! I had coffee which was fantastic & hubby had espresso also fantastic. We will definitely be back!

    WEDDING REVIEW I cannot express how thankful I am for the…read moreentire team at Clarks. I have to start with the food. No other venue offered the amount of food that Clarks did. All of the hors d'oeuvres were included in the package, and there's a lot. The stations included sushi and sake, pasta, carving, raw seafood, bacon, Mexican, cheese and wine, and more! So many of my guests are still raving about how that was the best cocktail hour/food that they have ever had. Clarks also offers a great selection of main courses and will give guests the option to try another dish on top of the one they selected. We worked with Nicole as our planner and from day 1 we received nothing but 5 star service. She sent us reminder emails when our payments were due, and always responded immediately to any of our emails and questions. She connected with us on a professional and personal level. Judy acted as our Maitre D, and she was so sweet. She made sure the entire day ran smoothly, I honestly can say that absolutely nothing went wrong, or if it did, I had no idea about it. I received a bridal attendant the day of who was by my side the entire night bringing me food, drinks, or anything else I needed. I also had guests coming up to me at the end of the night saying how amazing the staff and service was - which is something that I feel like many people wouldn't notice unless it was exceptional. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous. They are known for the stunning sunset on the marina. The ballroom is gorgeous, I purposely picked them for the ambiance and crystal chandeliers. I also saved money since uplighting, tableware, and the beautiful silk flower centerpieces were all included in our package. Clarks cares about their alumni as well, they have a fb group that they will add you in after the wedding and actually hold different events throughout the year for all of their alumni. I would recommend Clarks to any couple and am so happy I chose them for my wedding day!

Service was as perfect as it gets for a large gathering and the setting on the water at sunset couldn't be more beautiful!
