Clancy's Restaurant Review

: Enjoying the classic luxury of fried, golden brown oysters bathed in melted Brie seems fitting in Clancy's somewhat austere atmosphere. Uptown swells fill the whitewashed main dining room of mirrors, bentwood chairs and tuxedoed waiters that may strike some as stuffy, but table-hopping is common among the smartly dressed crowd, and the tiny bar up front has a surprisingly robust cocktail culture all its own. The kitchen produces updated Creole dishes, such as a light, crisply sautéed trout with pecans, grilled chicken breast enlivened with pistachio-lime butter, and filet mignon in Madeira sauce. Lightly smoked soft-shell crab with a sprinkling of crab meat is an indispensable entrée. Proprietor Brad Hollingsworth's wine list is a commendable blend of domestic and French selections at more than reasonable prices. Fine dessert pies include a towering wedge of peppermint ice cream under a frothy meringue, and a lemon icebox pie that many home cooks would be proud to call their own.
