Anonymous party of 2 had breakfast at the Clock Restaurant in Venice, FL and rated the food excellent because, "breakfast and how wrong can a breakfast be? It was quite good!" and writes on March 30, 2007, "I visited here at least 12 times during the winter I spent in Venice in 2007.
There is a problem with service at this place. It comes from the top. Rude waitresses, altho' we did find a nice one and asked for her table most of the time. When a guest forgot to ask, we sometimes ended up with the RUDE one who seemed always unhappy and rushed. She may have been the boss, but I am not sure. A couple of times we got two others who were rude, altho' less so. Rolling the eyes for a special request, e.g.
Food great and cheap, so we went back, but they need help in the ATTITUDE area!"

Anonymous party of 3 had breakfast at the Clock Restaurant and ordered Chicken strips, hamburger, egg breakfast and rated the food very good because, "It was fast, reasonably priced and tasty." and writes on May 27, 2006, "We visited this restaurant during a crowded weekday morning. We had to wait a few minutes for a table but it wasn't too bad. Our waitress was very busy but friendly and polite and was quick with the coffee refilling. Our food was so fast! My chicken stripes were very good and not too greasy. My dad liked the hamburger and especially the fries. My mom had a breakfast with eggs and ham and she thought the ham was too tough but liked everything else. There were a lot of kids so I think it's a good place to take them."

An anonymous writer who says they has visited the restaurant 12 times writes on 1/19/2004: "While this restaurant is ok most of the time, our recent experience there sent us packing - not to return. Our first stop, the restrooms, were equally filthy and in disrepair in the male and female department. The path, by the waitress station, presented a view of dry rotted walls - not a good beginning. Our waitress was rude, unorganized and seemed to be "too busy" to even stand still long enough to ask her a question. We waited 30 minutes for our hot wing appetizer and had to beg for condiments. When one of our dinners FINALLY arrived, the waitress said, "Didn't 'she' tell you about the special being out?" We have no idea who "she" was supposed to be, and it seemed like this waitress wanted to blame someone else for her not telling us that only one of our dinners would be served to us! Having had this waitress before with equally poor service, we were fed up and stated as much. She picked up the one dinner and said "OK fine, have a nice night." in a snotty tone of voice. We left as the manager stood by and did nothing. I guess they not only don't have time to clean or repair this restaurant, but also don't care if they keep customers. Eat here at your own risk!!! Ick. "
