So you should know by now, my illustrious readers, that I like cheap. Not cheap quality mind you, but cheap price tags. I can appreciate quality in things and will happily pay for it. However, I can't help but get all giddy and flushed when I find quality AND a cheap price in once spot. I've been to this little gem called Clarks twice now in the last two weeks. Once for breakfast to meet a super cool friend of mine who sells sex toys for a living, (told you she was cool), and another time for lunch with my Mom. ( My mom doesn't sell sex toys for a living, and while I thank God for that, she's still cool.) So I'm only going to review the lunch with Mom for this post because I wasn't thinking to take photos of the breakfast I had with my cool friend, plus my Mom said "Hey, you should review this place". Smartypants. Easy to find, this little spot has maybe 10 tables in the whole place, I think. Surprisingly, it was about half full at 12:30 in the afternoon, (thought it might be busier), but our server greeted us immediately when we walked in the door and brought us to a table. Taking our drink order and giving us menu's she left us to decide. The prices on this menu are amazing people! Mom ordered liver and onions (she could have ordered the senior's size for $6.50 - one scoop of mashed potatoes with gravy, two pieces of liver, and vegetables - but she's in denial about the senior thing I think - so she ordered the normal portion). She went on about how she hasn't eaten liver for almost a year, and I reminded her that it's been about 25 years since I've eaten it. I'd rather run naked through a cactus patch and bathe in a tub of vinegar than eat liver. Ok, not quite, ..... but well, honestly?...... Maybe. I ordered their house burger (can't remember the name of it dammit!), but it had cheese, bacon and mushrooms on it with all the other burger paraphernalia, and fries. The price for that burger rang in at $8.99. When the dishes came to the table, my mom seemed super pleased with her decision. She tried her first bite of the liver and looked up to the ceiling and said " OH MY GOD" (all dramatic like), with an added "this is the best liver I"ve had in a very long time!!". The waitress came along and Mom repeated what she expressed loud enough for all the other tables sitting around us to hear, and then the waitress went straight away into the kitchen and you could her yell... "JUAN!! Hey JUUAAAAN!!! -The liver and onions are excellent she said!". Mom figured the liver was slightly coated in a panko type coating and fried slightly crispy, but not like "shoe leather". The gravy tasted home-style, the mash was smooth and creamy and she said the veggies were very good - fresh, not from frozen and not overcooked. All this stupid excitement over the liver made me think I had to try it. So I cut a very small piece and kinda dipped in some gravy. It was crispy on the outside, tender, and still tasted disgustingly like liver to me. But I will admit, it was the very best of all the gross tasting liver I've ever had in my life. For real - If you love liver, you will love Clarks' liver. (Somehow that sounded weird, but you get what I'm saying) My burger was pretty good. The patty was house made and slightly dense, almost overworked, but very tasty. The cheese and bacon were nice but it could have used a few more mushrooms. All in all, the portion size was more than worth that price tag. Hell, you're gonna pay that same price pretty much at MacDonald's and the patties there are like shingles. Our server was VERY attentive and incidentally, an older lady who's been with the company for 22 years. This lady worked her ass off, was super friendly and made sure we were looked after. She was worth the generous tip, without question! On a side note, their breakfasts are super decent (EG: 2 eggs, 2 pancakes, 2 sausage, 2 bacon for $5.35.) and they have a huge variety of different Eggs Benedict if you're looking for something other than the original. I will definitely be going back to Clarks for breakfast or lunch. Apparently for dinner, it becomes a chinese food place, which is great, but I can't comment right now because I've not tried it................................ Yet. www.forkinfoodie.com read more

We have been going to Clark's every Sunday morning for several years, great atmosphere...it's like coming home, Tu and Ina are so welcoming..great prompt service, the food is always excellent and the patrons reflect the friendliness that we enjoy there. Our son considers the wonton soup the best he has ever had. read more

The people are great. It feels like home. The food is good. The atmosphere is amazing.

I love this place...reminds me of a small town hole in the wall... Where the service is friendly and the food is amazing. I love the clubhouse with the delicious crinkle fries and gravy, but the burgers are amazing too!! Giant handmade patty with all the fixings...all fresh. Breakfast menu is great too...lots of selections...love the french toast and the different kinds of Eggs Benedict. I would give this a 4.9 if I could. read more

Clark's Restaurant - a plate of food on a table - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Sherwood Park, Alberta

This is a good place to go for your standard run of the mill breakfast (eggs, greasy bacon/sausage, pancakes, hashbrowns, toast, etc...). In my opinion the food is comparable to your Albert's, Smitty's, Denny's (Denny's - EW!) quality of food, but the prices are seriously dirt cheap!! Like cheap to the point where you start to get the too good to be real feeling and begin wondering what it is your missing that isn't right about this place?!?! I don't know but I haven't found anything yet really. Been here a few times now and haven't ever really been disappointed. Nothing overly special about the food, or the service, or the decor. However, for the same thing you would order at Albert's (bacon and eggs for example) for $10 bucks, you will get at Clark's for $5 bucks.... Although the seriously low prices make me somewhat weary for some reason, I have never been sick after eating there and the food tastes as good as it would anywhere else I think. That's saying something I guess. I'll be back there again sometime I am sure! ...Oh, and they have food other than breakfast - I just haven't tried it ever. read more

Clark's has just recently come under new ownership and they have already made some big improvements to the restaurant. The change is a a great thing and if they continue Clark's has the potential to really come around. Food for now is average and inexpensive. Although things are changing so this rating in the future has the potential to increase dramatically read more

Decided to give this place a shot for dinner tonight. Not bad. Not great. But a goid selection and pretty good value. As they serve a mix of Western and Asian fare, I chose the Clark's burger, with fries, and an order of spring rolls to start. Spring rolls seemd like they came a bag. Fries...deffinitely from a bag. Burger. Fresh. Thick. Much like something one would do at home. For $20 total... Infact that's how the entire meal sort of felt. Right down to thd iced tea that seemed like it was mixed in house. Service wasn't bad...but it sort of seemed like they forgot all about me, and they weren't busy. I made do with my one cup of iced tea, and one napkin. The only time I saw the servers was when I received my food. The place has NO character. White walls. Nothing on them. Seem like they ae searching for a sense of themselves. Despite all this. I think I will return. Perhaps for breakfast. Because the price was right. And the food was OK. And certainly better than a comparably priced fast food burger! read more

A little hole in the wall. Mom & pop shop. Chinese food was good beer selection mediocre $2.50 for a can of pop. Dinner for 2 is the right amount of food for 2 people. A little bit tucked away in business industrial area. Service is non existent but like I said mom & pop mom reads the newspapers and stares at you read more

Chinese food was AMAZING. Cooked on the spot, portions were large and cost was very reasonable. Owner came over and chatted with us. Was pleasantly surprised. Will be back many times. Top notch food. read more

Just try the burger. It shames the actual burger places. It's a decent place and offers good value for your buck.

It's hard to imagine getting worse service than my family received at Clark's Restaurant in Sherwood Park. After waiting for over an hour for our breakfast order and the waitress continually telling us order will be right up she comes back and says they lost our order. She then proceeds to tell us that we will have to order again but because it's now a new order we would have to wait until all the other orders ahead of us are filled despite the fact that we originally ordered an hour before any of them. Needless to say we walked out so I can't comment on the food as they never actually bothered to serve us any. I would never go back or in good conscience recommend this place to anyone. read more
