   Great food, farm to table and history all around the old farmhouse. Walking paths available. Ambience is great.

   Always a sure bet. Service was really good! Food good! I don’t like that they charged an extra 3.75% service fee because they say things have gotten expensive in 2023. Their prices are already on the higher end for food so charging extra service fee rubbed me the wrong way. That will make me think twice about going there.

   We were disappointed. Food quality was not as good as usual. Potatoes were undercooked. May have been a first customer of the day thing, but the quality just was not as good as usual. Music was loud in the bar as well. Also noticed that specialty coffees are no more. Miss them.

   As local customers who have dined here ever since it opened years ago, we have always had a great experience. We dine here a few times a year as the prices are high but the food is always great. I always look forward to their locally sourced ribeye steak, which I ordered. My wife ordered a pasta dish that was very good (as expected). My steak looked good when served, but that’s where it ended. It too rare, fatty, and gristly. A far cry from past ribeyes at Clyde’s. I could get a similar steak at an average chain steakhouse for $20 less. The bench seat booths are showing their age with more than a few with noticeable tares in the seats. Not a deal buster. Just sad because it’s such a beautiful restaurant. Happily, the service was great. We’ll be back although I’ll go elsewhere for a great steak.

    This was the first time we had been to Willow Creek in 8 years, we always went to Reston which is greatly missed. We had a great meal and William was awesome, we will be back. The restaurant didn’t change much in 8 years 😋

    The food was great and the service was exceptional. I’ve eaten at their other locations, and I’ve enjoyed them all, but this location has a lot more of a classic and nostalgic feel to it. The interior is cavernous, with many rooms and bars. It’s a classy place without being snooty or pretentious. There’s a ton of parking too.

    My husband and I had such a fun time on Saturday evening at this Clyde’s location…it was our first time dining here. Our server Sarah could not have been nicer, more accommodating (allowing us plenty of time to just enjoy our cocktails and each other’s company), or more helpful with menu selections. Still that great chili we used to have at the now closed Reston location. The Guinness Lamb Stew and the Roasted Atlantic Salmon were top notch. The Willow Creek setting is, in a word, fabulous. The rooms are all unique and we particularly enjoyed being near the bar and having great music surround us. The bartender produced a perfect Lavender Martini! Thanks again…wonderful evening, hard-working and happy staff all around…leading to very happy patrons!

    I had to return my steak because I ordered medium rare and received well done. They gracious took it back and brought the correctly cooked streak. Other than that all was good.

    Our first time here. It's a beautiful place, sedate with fireplaces, themed art and decor in each of its numerous dining rooms and cool bars galore. The ambience invites you to unwind, sit back, take your time, and enjoy. The food is also excellent. Highly recommended: the oysters Rockefeller, Atlantic salmon salad, French onion soup, and Clyde's special chili. The cocktails are also creative and made with top-drawer ingredients.

    Had a very nice dinner at Clyde's! Started with Cosmos and salad along with their delicious fresh bread. Entrees were the grilled rockfish and pasta dish. All were served hot and beautifully plated. Unfortunately no room for one of their desserts. Maybe next time!

    Oysters were excellent. The mignonette sauce was zesty but would have benefited from more finely minced shallots. I recommend the oysters from this raw bar; they were shucked expertly, presented correctly (they were not dry), and both the Duxbury and Pemiquid oysters were plump with nice briney finishes.

    I meet for lunch with a group of grade school friends every month. We have known each other 50+ years and we find ourselves returning to Clyde’s Willow Creek Farm as our dining destination many times. The location, ambiance, food and service are always top notch. Even as adults, we enjoyed our ‘visit with Santa’ in December. Thanks for a memorable dining experience.

    Server was very pleasant and attentive; however, ordered Rosé but was brought sparking rose - server did not verify; when appetizer plates and silverware were cleared new silverware and plates were not brought (more appetizers were ordered). Cappuccino took 3 attempts - first two were coffee and creme/latte in regular coffee cup, manager finally made the cappuccino in a regular coffee cup. If Cappuccino cannot be made properly please don’t include on menu. Otherwise everything was delicious and delightful.

    Food and service was good. My complaint was the table seating. A Sunday brunch… You put us next to a group of the loudest table of middle aged ladies that I couldn’t even hear my own wife talking across from me; ruined the experience, especially when there were empty tables all throughout.

    My husband, mother and I enjoyed the ambiance of the restaurant. The entrees (sea bass and lamb stew) were very good but our appetizer, the calamari, contained some pieces that tasted foul to the point that we did not finish it. We told our waiter, Ryan, who apologized. However, I was surprised to see, on the check, that we were charged for the calamari and a $5 service fee. I was not impressed.

    We were seated right at the time of our reservation. The menu was the winter menu with good hearty selections. Our appetizers, a soup and a salad, were served in intervals. I watched my spouse eat her soup. My salad arrived as she was finishing. Our entrees arrived together. Prices have increased since our last visit. A cup of regular coffee was $4, a brownie with a scoop of ice cream and whipped cream was $10. Most surprising was a 3.75% surcharge, I dubbed the “Clyde’s tax.” The surcharge was to ostensibly offset increased supplier prices. I guess I just would have bumped the prices a little more. The food was good. Still a nice place to dine. Just more expensive and less coordinated than past experiences.

    Before I comment, I fully understand that restaurants are still struggling to recover since COVID restrictions. I’ve noticed poorer service and mostly lower food quality everywhere, since prior to 2021. With the higher cost of Clyde’s I would expect a little better though. They seemed understaffed for waitpersons. The food was just okay, but not up to their previous quality. Bread was never offered as it was on all of our previous visits. It was not worth the extra cost of Clyde’s when I could have gotten the same or better quality of food and service at the Olive Garden.

    Blah....nothing good to report. Greasy, cold breakfast potatoes, 'cold' hot tea, dishes never cleared. At one point there were 4 empty coffee mugs on the table. And, to think they are charging a 'recovery' fee on each table. That's NOT right. Where is that money going? Just curious.

    The food had a good flavor but was not hot, just warm. I guess I have been spoiled by Ruth’s Chris, my go to restaurant. I was there to celebrate mine and my grandson’s birthday. It was disappointing. The brownie sundae was warmer than the food.
