A bustling seafood haven in Aspen, Clark's serves up fresh oysters, caviar, and a delightful cocktail of the day, all in a lively setting.
"This Austin-based transplant serves some of the freshest seafood in the state from its open kitchen. You’ll want to order a little bit of everything, including daily raw bar selections, overstuffed lobster rolls with a stack of shoestring fries, and cioppino teeming with clams, mussels, and shrimp in a buttery herb broth. A wood-burning fireplace and giant tropical aquarium add to the beach-meets-mountains atmosphere. Dinner reservations are necessary, but Clark’s has a walk-in-only boozy brunch and après ski happy hour, with half-priced burgers, martinis, and oyster shooters. photo credit: Clark's" - Katie Shapiro
"This Austin-based transplant serves some of the freshest seafood in the state from its open kitchen. You’ll want to order a little bit of everything, including daily raw bar selections, steaming sourdough loaves, lobster rolls, and piping-hot cioppino. This place is always busy, but you won’t really mind because you can have a drink by the wood-burning fireplace while staring at the giant tropical aquarium. They also do a great Happy Hour where you’ll get half-priced burgers and martinis with discounted oyster shooters as well. " - katie shapiro
"After opening in 2018, this Austin transplant has solidified its hot spot status inside the storied digs previously home to the historic Little Annie’s Eating House. Always start with the impressive selection of East and West coast oysters paired with fresh-shaved horseradish, followed by a steaming bowl of cioppino for the main course. The happy hour burger is arguably one of the best in town, especially during après ski, when it’s served alongside half-priced martinis and oyster shooters. A special caviar, roe, and Champagne menu is also available for a fancy night out." - Katie Shapiro
