    Food was good. I had scallops large portion n were yummy. My friend had shrimp they were small shrimp n a small portion. We both did not like the cole slaw. Fried mushrooms were to die for huge n fresh! Customer service sucked. We had to ask for everything even straws n got attitude when asked for anything! Very Unfriendly!

    Not sure about the rest of the food here but the fries were cold and the shrimp had a rancid taste and I couldn't finish it.

    I was craving fish and didn't want to eat at the dock or LJS. I'd heard good things about this place so the husband and I gave it a shot. The service was good, food was hot and quick and but mediocre at best. Restaurant was filthy.

    Clarksville Seafood has been around a long time and you don't stay around that long unless you have something people want. Good seafood and decent prices is their calling card. I akin to those who mentioned they like the scallops. Haven't had better even close to the ocean! They are of good size and some are cut in half in order to be sure they are done through. Each order comes with fries, and I usually cannot finish them all. Their version of hot sauce isn't anything I have encountered anywhere else. I don't even want to know what is in it, it is just yummy! I use it mainly for dipping my fries because the scallops don't need it. My last trip I ordered fried cauliflower. It was good, but way too much for me. I think you can sub out for the fries for a small fee. I will be trying that next time. Another plus: They have Big Red!!! Pretty basic menu. none of the entrees are over $10. You order at the counter, find a seat and go up to get your tray when they call your number. So, no fancy pants going on in there. You don't throw your leftover paperware away, just leave it on the table and they come clear it off. With that said, I will have to say they could use some housekeeping. The floor needs a good mopping and the carpet looks very old. They would get 5 stars from me if they spruced the place up a little. They used to have finicky hours and it was hard to remember when they were open and when they weren't. Now they are pretty much open every day from 11am until 8pm with the exception of Monday. So, don't let the building (inside or out) deter you. Go and get yourself some fried scallops!!!!

    I've been coming here since I was a kid and there is no better fish in town! A group of young men are always working and running this place and always have. The hot sauce isn't very hot but it's also a favorite. The fried onions are nice and greasy but yummy. Don't forget to try the shrimp too. They are a descent size and also great. Definately a dive but the food is beyond great.

    I have always wanted to try this place, but it was completely different than I had imagined. I was thinking fresh baked fish and vegetables and being waited on. No. We walked in the back door which is where the parking lot is and as soon as I saw the inside I realized this was way different than I had imagined. You order up front just like a fast food restaurant and there is a tiny selection. You get fish, shrimp or there are a few other choices of oysters, deviled crab or clams. The meal comes with fries and I asked to replace that with onions. It is all fried. When they called my number and I went and got our tray of food, I was thinking man, why didn't we go to Mexican? BUT, it was delicious. I got the fish and my daughter got shrimp and we split each other's. The fish and shrimp both were wonderful. It was a great tasting breading and very fresh tasting. I loved it even though it was not what I was expecting.

    I like scallops and this place has them (good fish too). Its like being on the Cape with a hunger for seafood from a shanty. Not too fancy, just good seafood. Price is good and so are the fries! Does a lively carryout business and parking is in the rear.

    My search is over. Ever since I moved from North Carolina three years ago, I've been trying to find a simple seafood restaurant that matched the freshness and quality taken for granted there. This place has it. The fried oysters were perfect. Fresh, full of flavor, breading was complimentary not overwhelming, and you get your money's worth. The fried fish was among the best I've had. Generous quantities, perfectly fried, flaky, moist and flavorful. I'm not a big fan of fried fish, but this was good. The fried mushrooms were fresh. If they didn't bread them in house, I'll be surprised. The fried pickles.... it's not easy to fry a pickle. These had juice and flavor left in them, and they weren't those 5 gallon bucket sour hamburger pickles. I bet they were hand cut on premises. And their breading didn't fall off. The only disappointment were the fries, which were a bit old and soggy. But there was so much good food that I didn't care. These people know how to fry. The counter folk were warm and friendly. Even told me the names of their 15 year old pet fish. Decor... yeah, it's old and dated, a bit dim inside. Do I care? No. Gives the place ambiance and a down home feeling. You want fried seafood done right? Give this place a try.

    Amazing fish, deviled crab and shrimp. Do not forget their mustard/hot sauce, so tasty along with their tarter sauce.

    Everything on the menu is fried. But if blood is running through your veins, you're pretty much ordering the "fish", which is white and battered and fried and I'm not sure there's anything else to know or say. It's good, hot, fried. Emphasis on fried. Wood paneling is genuine. Old-people vehicles in parking lot came packed with old people. "Lemon aid" is Country Time. Ketchup only upon request. Hush puppies 15 cents. Extra sauce *14* cents. Get the basket of fried pickles. Seriously, it's enormous. My co-worker said her mom used to go to the restaurant when it was in the location that preceded this one. I think she was talking about an era that ended several decades ago. Which is kinda awesome.

    You're going for the fried fish, and it is white, flaky, and delicious. The hush puppies are good too. The interior is a little...dated, but you came for the fried fish and hush puppies and not the wood paneled splendor.

    This place is a childhood memory filled with the smell of fish. It's really fun. No frills type of place, there is usually a wait for the seafood but its really really good! Just don't wear any clothes there that you want to smell like seafood after. seriously, my dad and i would go to this restaurant a lot and mother would require us to not wear our jackets inside because the smell would follow you. PS get the hot mustard...seriously, it goes great with the fish.

    If you want to go somewhere that is trendy and has luxury decor - go somewhere else. On the other hand, if you want the BEST fried fish...this is as good as it gets at a restaurant. Their fish comes from Iceland, and is flown in fresh daily. Recently, they have started efforts to improve the decor & aesthetic by putting down new carpet and getting some murals done on the walls (but who cares about any of that???) - in the end, its still a fish house. Large portions and one of the best values you can get anywhere. The fish is light and flaky. And the clams & scallops are out of this world. Very highly recommended!

    I've frequented this establishment for probably 25 years and not much has changed...unfortunately. The fish is good although it seems quite pricey recently. I like the fact that you don't get bread with it...you can enjoy the fish more. But I have to admit I have stopped going there recently because of the lack of attention to the cleanliness and updates to decor. I know it's become sort of a "roadside dive" type of place but I'm not sure that's what was intended. The overhead lighting fixtures have been there for at least all the 25 years or more I have gone there. They have yellowed and seriously need to be updated. It's pretty drab and dingy looking. The flooring looks as though it's been ther just as long as well as the pinecone wreath that's on the waiting area wall. Not sure it's been dusted in a very long time. As for the 'Fish Nazi" at the counter that takes your order, a course in people skills and cracking a smile occassionally wouldn't hurt him. All in all a good place for fish but don't expect much else.

    Clarksville Seafood has some of the best seafood around. I remember eating fish here as a little girl and it's still one of my favorite restaurants. The menu is very basic--you have a lot of combo meals, a few side options, and drinks. I usually suggest getting combo meals and sharing them with a group. So, my husband and I get 2 Fried fish, a scallop, and a clam. I like to mix up the sides with the combos, usually doing 2 fries and 2 onion rings. Rule of thumb- everyone must get a fish and add more of your other favorite combos for more people :) The batter on the fish and other seafood is very light. The spicy mayo-type dipping sauce that comes with the seafood is awesome. They also now have free refills on drinks, which is stellar (the one generic Solo cup just didn't cut it)! Remember, you aren't going to Clarksville Seafood for atmosphere--you're going for the best seafood around. Ignore the landscape wallpaper, family style dining, and cheap art...you won't even notice after your first bite!

    When I have a bit more time I will rewrite this, it will be very detailed as this is my favorite seafood place anywhere. In the short term, 5 stars just isn't enough.

    Absolutely wonderful fish especially with the spicy sauce. Onions are fantastic.

    Hollar back my friends to this place for some delicous fried catfish and onion rings. Deep fried and wonderfully seasoned batter, this place delivers some crispy food. Homemade coleslaw, peppered hush puppies, thinly sliced onion rings and huge helping of fish and chicken...mmm...so good.

    Ok - I've had better, I have to admit. Over in J-town...there's a little dive called Passtime's that blows this place sky high. BUT, we were in the car and I was craving some chowder, it was a bit of a chilly day and it was a chowder kinda day. They didn't have any soup on the menu, but we stayed for the rave reviews on the fish...and I have to say... This place wasn't all bad. I have to admit. I also have to admit, depending on your standards for a seafood joint's cleanliness - you may want to order with your eyes closed. When it comes to their food - I have to admit, they said they had Boston Haddock, their fish wasn't much to write home about, but their batter seasoning was more than unique. We also ordered the onion strings and clams - definitely a unique seasoning. I must admit this place was good on price and large on flavor. We added an order of the fried pickles - and as much as I know my fish - I know my fried pickles. I wasn't so impressed with their "seafood sauce" as I was at how the batter actually stayed on the pickles, the crispness and the freshness - even when we reheated them for lunch and dinner the next day (toaster oven of course). Overall, this place is like a dive off the high dive. Moreso than Passtime's in J-town. But they supersede some really big eateries on flavor and freshness...I'm not sure how, 'cause I didn't see the Atlantic outback ;p lol. As for customer service, the guy at the counter, he did come off as brash at first, then when we explained we were new, and found them as a recommendation on the internet he lightened up and had loads of recommendations. We ended up paying probably 10-15 bucks less than we would at a seafood chain and got much better food and a lot more, but the cleanliness was definitely bothersome. As for those that had issues with hours, we took pictures of the hours posted on the door and will have those up for everyone soon. Just in case their hours have regulated some - with a more pickup with business. Another comment on hours - when a business has a limited amount of income and little to pay staff, they might be struggling stay open, so oftentimes hours may be irregular because of overhead, staff, suppliers, or supplies in general. Seafood is also a seasonal kind of thing too, which might cause issues with supplies. I'm not taking up for the business by any means, but just adding perspective for such a small restaurant that seems to have been around for awhile - when doors are closing and employees are leaving, it could mean they just couldn't stay open and you just ran into a frustrated owner? I'm not sure. But in all appearances it seems like they have straightened out the hours. I hope this yelp helps others re-try some ((take-out)) from what seems to be a long time business in Clarksville. :-)

    How can you go wrong with a Clarksville tradition! I grew up in Clarksville and we always ate at Clarksville Seafood. Great fish, and scallops! Its fried and yummy! Their onions are to die for! Just drive down Eastern Blvd and the smell will hit you! Awe, I can smell it now! One piece of advice, call ahead if you dont know their schedule, because they do have weird hours!

    Awkward hours, Soup Nazi service, but their fish is well worth it!!! I have never dealt with a cashier as bitter as theirs, and their awkward hours will leave you standing outside to locked doors if you don't call ahead first. And guess who answers their phone, the bitter cashier!! No wonder! With that said, their fish makes up for it all. Well worth experience!

    The fish, scallops, and shrimp are probably the best in town. The hot sauce is amazing and the fried onions are terrific
