Lunch at Clarity is a treat from beginning to end - starting with the most amazing warm rolls! My colleague and I thoroughly enjoyed the food and the experience and I would highly recommend it to others. Our server, Victor, was knowledgeable about the menu and helped make the experience very pleasant.

Had a wonderful experience. The food was delicious and the service was great. We sat at the counter and were able to watch the chef make everything. Since we went on a Monday, wine was market price, so we enjoyed the salmon special and pork chop with a bottle of wine. Too bad they're closing the restaurant portion, because we would definitely go back. Looking forward to taking some cooking classes there though!
