Fodor's Review:

Started in 1966 as a small stand for clams, wings, and beer, Tarks hasn't changed much, with a counter and a few tables for neighbors and drop-ins to eat, drink, and rejuvenate. From Tarks's raw bar come top-neck and littleneck clams along with raw oysters. From the fryer are clams (bellies or strips), oysters, scallops, shrimp, wings, and curly fries. For around $10 you can order a gator-tail dinner (gently marinated and deep-fried) or a tasty conch salad. Nightly specials include Alaskan snow crab on Friday.
