Signature Baked Clams – Choose Your Own

Lenny’s Clam Bar is renowned for its famous baked whole clams, a savory classic that draws in seafood lovers from all over. Each whole clam is topped with a flavorful blend of breadcrumbs, garlic, herbs, and Parmesan cheese, all baked to perfection until golden and crisp on top and served with lemon wedges for a zesty finish. Choose from Little Neck, larger Top Neck, or a combination of both!

Tucked away in the quiet neighborhood of Howard Beach, Queens, Lenny’s Clam Bar has become a beloved local landmark since Italian immigrant Joseph DeCandia first opened its doors back in 1974. Lenny’s quickly developed a reputation for great seafood and Italian-American classics, and a series of commercials featuring DeCandia made it a household name in New York. Today run by Joseph DeCandia, Jr., Lenny’s remains one of the most iconic restaurants in Queens.
