My server, Greg, was great. He was very busy but he balanced paying attention with letting it breathe well. My drinks and meal were fantastic. I had the smoke and bourbon, prepped at the table. I had the duck special with maple mashed sweet potatoes and a citrus/cranberry sauce and it was prepared perfectly. I haven’t had this good of a meal in a long time. The manager was helping flip tables as well, and later, even saw him restocking the restroom. A surprisingly wonderful experience.

The service and food was excellent as always. We ordered our favorites as usual: pea salad, hot crab and artichoke dip as appetizers! Entrees were the Scallops and Blue Cheese Salad. Never disappoints.

First time I’ve ever went to Clinkerdagger‘s and had to wait for both my water or a refill for my cocktail at a table of four. Great food everything else top-notch but first time in a long time and I go here enough times to say this that our server was not in her element won’t be going back for a while.

service, onion soup, and dessert were good. The 16 oz prime rib was 30% fat and the meat was full of tough fibers. Could not cut it with the steak knife.
