We can’t stop thinking and talking about the amazing time we had at Clay Pots, 4 weeks ago. Arriving unannounced we enjoyed a drink or 2 in the very cool adjacent bar, admiring the endless array of objects d’art and quirky curios nestled into every nook and cranny. There are mechanised trams running through the roof, cable cars swooping above your head..it really is a good start to the night as you head will certainly be swimming once you have dined next door!
We shortly gained our table and placed ourselves in the hands of the highly acclaimed head chef, Neelam.
First up were some extremely good king prawns, and coming from Darwin, I know prawns and these were right up there.
The wine started to flow and next up was a crustacean platter, mussels to die for, Spanner crab cooked perfectly, some of the best Bugs I’ve ever had and along with all of this we had to suck down some sweet blue swimmers to boot!
I thought we may be done, but no..next up was the specialty Cajun spiced Flathead, if you only taste one thing from this establishment , make it the Cajun flathead. Un-bloody-believable!
With only the flathead skeleton left and the wine polished off, we adjourned back to the bar where a duet pianist and drummer were kicking into a very cool evening of acoustic French jazz.
Along with the food, a highlight was the atmosphere of the whole scene. Staff and locals were friendly, food was of the highest class, drinks were prepared with expertise, I really cannot rate the Clay Pots highly enough. From now on the Claypots in St Kilda is on our must do list when we visit Melbourne.
I love this place. me and my wife went out on a date night and we both love seafood, we got the bowl of mussels, 2 king prawns, the calamari, turkish green beans and the morrocan claypot and it was all delicious, and my wife is a hard seafood critic coming from cairns where there is so much fresh seafood and everything was perfectly cook there was no long wait just a 5 star experience
Great food and eclectic place. We should've chosen the back outdoors, though. The kids were excited about the elevated toy train. Staff was super kind and friendly to the kids. For me, as a parent, that was major.
Exceptional bugs with mussels, quirky atmosphere, mulled wine was very full of spice. We loved the garlic prawns. Didn’t love the clay pots funnily enough.
The seafood dishes are amazingly fresh, delicious. The menu is very different and interesting! The staff are friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable.Wonderful and friendly atmosphere. The live jazz is also fantastic! Our favourite seafood restaurant in Melbourne!😋🤗❤😊
This restaurant is really unique. It has all the fresh fish and seafood on display to choose from, and you can always pick exactly which piece you want. The menu is very interesting; both for food and wine. Cosy atmosphere and very friendly and attentive staff. A must to visit!
The food was really delicious, cooked with love and care by a chef with 20+ years experience cooking fish and seafood for Claypots. The waitress was also really friendly. A great restaurant to go to to enter a new world and forget the busyness outside.
I had such a lovely experience here! My waitress Layla was so helpful! She assisted me in picking my food and drink order..loved all of the recommendations. Food and drink was delicious! Thank you for having me Claypots :)
