Waffle for me, waffle for my wife, coffee for each of us. They didn't take long. Cooked properly and light, mine had the requisite pecans with it. Coffee was perfect and hot. Restrooms were both clean (Mrs checked the ladies). My only complaints are that the music was super loud and the road in front needs a fresh paving.

The place is good, but the issue was lack of staff bc they had open tables when we sat down. Really enjoyed the breakfast, two eggs, bacon, and toast all cooked perfectly!

We were not disappointed - every bite of every thing was absolutely delicious. We are from Charleston, home to many southern/soul food restaurants but Jeffrey Lampkin's beat the pants of of every soul food kitchen Charleston has to offer. It's about a 2-hour drive from Charleston to Sumter but I would make that trip just to enjoy their food again. It's that good!

Hello, we have been patronizing Clark's for nearly 8 years and compared to many establishments…read morewe've visited throughout our lifetime Clark's has a FEEL none can match. The food is exceptional and has surpassed any expectation regarding cuisine we've experienced in many different restaurants. Regarding staffing, no words can express the sincere professionalism, courtesy, kindness, friendliness, warmth that is received with each and every visit. Namely Danny (irreplaceable), Mark (irreplaceable), Donna (irreplaceable) Melvin (irreplaceable), "Field" (irreplaceable), Jamie (irreplaceable), Olivia (irreplaceable). If we have forgotten anyone, please forgive us but I am POSITIVE they too add a sense of class and elegance to this fine establishment. Our only concern and disappointment is the newly appointed manager by the name of "Lance" who by our personal observation does NOT relate well with the staff and communicates with them in a disrespectful and abrasive manner. He exhibits mannerisms more suitable for a fast-food establishment. In our opinion he is definitely NOT qualified as Clark's material. We considered never re-visiting Clark s restaurant until he was no longer on staff, however staff insisted we return and not let his temperament dampen our experience. For those who frequent Clark's, please continue to patronize this great establishment and enjoy the unique FEEL and AMBIANCE that makes Clark's the beautiful place that it is..... To the owners we wish you blessings and continued success!! And it was a honor and pleasure meeting both Mr. Mrs. Clark in person.

As you enter the restaurant, give yourself extra time to wander the charming (& large) gift shop. Each of the staff we met along the way was delightfully kind & pleasant. We had a drink @ the bar & then were seated. The restaurant waitstaff were impeccable, great attention to detail - silverware, glassware, napkins, etc. EDGAR was our server & he was a complete delight, a true gentleman & made our experience a "home run". The food was amazing - we had the soups, salad, seafood, gnocci, low country boil & an apple crisp dessert. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. This was a terrific dinner!!

They have an ice cream shop inside also. The food was pretty good but the real attraction here is being on the lake. Great views watching people tubing and boating. Pretty serene if you don't count the country music blaring outside that was at Friday night party level on a wednesday afternoon. I saw some ducklings following mama around while eating my burger, can't complain about that! Keep your expecations in line - this isnt meant to be fine dining - and you can definitely spend an hour or two enjoying this spot. Oh yeah - Im pretty sure they dont sell alcohol fyi. At least I didn't see any anywhere. 4.25
