Went to a high rated local spot last night which greatly disappointed. Spoke to some locals at the beach and they recommended this place so glad we came. It was fabulous. Five stars all the way around.

Dinner$50–100Atmosphere: 5Fresh Catch3-4 peopleHighly recommendClearly labeled vegetarian dishesIt is best to make reservations in advance, it is coming up on the SnowBird busy season. That way you will get preferred seating, I recommend a booth inside!Plenty of parkingFree parking lot, Paid parking lot, Free street parkingNot sure if the atmosphere is right for small children. There is no place for them to run around and play.Clayton’s is handicap accessible, with a ramp at the entrance for wheelchairs, space to move around if you need a walker/cane.
