    Wonderful food and an amazing view of the ocean. Unfortunately, our server Lisa, was not very friendly and we felt very rushed by her even though the restaurant was just half full.

    There are very few restaurants that give you first class service and great food. Clay Hill fits the bill. It is the romantic date night spot. It is also a spot to catch up with friends. In full disclosure our daughter had a beautiful reception at Clay Hill 10 years ago. The staff was wonderful, food and ambiance were perfect and everyone had a great time. I recommend Clay Hill Farm any chance I get!

    The Burkett never disappoints. This time around, the Caesar salad was perfect - well balanced dressing and the boquerones were a nice touch. Our main courses, statler chicken breast on risotto, and baked stuffed haddock, could not have been better. Both were cooked perfectly and delivered hot. The room is lovely and the service friendly but not intrusive. Stop by for dinner; you will not be disappointed.
