    Ehh, it was okay. I’ve had better seafood dishes, to be honest. πŸ˜•

    Why do people eat clams? They look like giant bugs in the ocean. Disgusting.

      I mean they might LOOK weird, but they taste fantastic with pasta. Just gotta focus on the flavor!

    Linguine?? πŸ˜‚ I thought it was spaghetti! They taste the same, right?

      Linguine and spaghetti are not the same! Linguine is flat while spaghetti is round. But both are yummy! πŸ˜‚

    This was so delicious! The clams were perfect, and it was super easy to make. Definitely making it again!

    The instructions were real clear and easy to follow! But why no cheese? I always thought pasta with seafood needed cheese!

    Linguine with clams is my favorite dish! This was super easy to make and I had all the ingredients in my kitchen. Will make again.

      Looks easy but I’ve had bad experiences with clams. Are they really safe eating if they don’t open?

    2. User avatar nickolas.batz1973 says:

    I didn’t have any parsley, but it was still good. I used basil instead. A flavorful twist!

    The clams didn’t open for me?! I followed the recipe exactly. Disappointed.

    Super easy and quick! Loved making this on a weeknight.

    Tasted ok, but my pasta was overcooked. I guess I didn’t read the package instructions right.

    Too much garlic for my taste. Next time, I might skip it or use less.

  14. User avatar houston.murphy says:

    A little too much garlic for my taste. Next time I’ll cut it down. But overall, decent dish.

      Too much garlic? Nah, you gotta embrace it! It gives such a nice flavor! Just add more seafood next time!

      I love garlic, but I get it, sometimes it can be overbearing! Glad you enjoyed it otherwise!

    I followed the recipe, but the clams didn’t open???? What did I do wrong??

  16. 4 stars
    Really good. Made it for my friends and they loved it! Will make again for sure.

    Should the wine be white or red? I used red, and it tasted weird. I don’t know if that’s okay?

    Too salty for my taste! I suggest reducing the salt. Otherwise, nice recipe.

    1. 4 stars
      I agree, it was a bit much for me too. Maybe next time I won’t add any salt at all!

    This is my fave! I added some red pepper flakes for a kick. Yum!

    I was skeptical about using clams, but it turned out surprisingly good. Will make it again!

      So glad you tried it! Clams can be a bit nerve-wracking, but they add such a unique flavor! 🍝

      I don’t get how clams can be good… like, aren’t they just slimy? πŸ€” But if you liked it, great!

    Did not turn out well for me. The clams were all closed and I had to throw most of them away. Very disappointing!

      That sounds amazing! I love a little kick in my food. I’m definitely trying that next time!

      Really? Red pepper flakes? I don’t think that would work well with clams. Seems kinda weird to me.

    Not a fan of clams. I swapped them for shrimp instead and it was delicious! Just sayin.

    1. User avatar curtis.frami1981 says:

      Shrimp sounds good! I’ll have to try that next time. Clams are not my favorite either.

  27. User avatar vern.hickle says:

    I don’t like clams, so I used shrimp instead. Still tasted good but not the same. Would try the original next time.

  28. 3 stars
    Tasty, but I think I overcooked the pasta. Gotta watch that next time.

    Linguine and clams? Luv it! I mean!! So simple and yummy! My kids even liked it.

      Clams?! Are they even safe for kids? I thought they could be dangerous or something. I’m skeptical!

    2. 5 stars
      This recipe sounds great! I never thought my kids would like clams, but maybe I’ll give it a try now. Thanks!

    5 stars no doubt! Never thought I could make such restaurant-quality pasta at home!

    1. User avatar bunny.kihn41 says:

      I totally agree! This recipe is a game changer! I made it last night and my family couldn’t believe how good it was! 🍝

    Easy to follow but I think it needs more garlic. Like, a lot more. Why not add a whole bulb?

  32. User avatar caryl.macgyver2004 says:

    This recipe is amazing! The clams were so fresh and the flavors were spot on. Definitely a keeper!

    1. User avatar Super Saiyan Gohan says:

      I tried this recipe too, and I was disappointed. The clams weren’t fresh when I got them, and it just didn’t taste right. Maybe I did something wrong?

  33. 3 stars
    Very fancy pasta for us, but I think I coulda just made boring spaghetti instead.

  34. User avatar earnest.nikolaus80 says:

    This recipe has too many steps. Can’t I just dump everything in one pot? 😩

  35. User avatar deandre.cole77 says:

    I tried this and it didn’t turn out as expected. The clams were not opening and I ended up with a lot of mush. Very disappointing.

  36. User avatar ShanksOnePiece says:

    I had a hard time finding clams at my grocery store, settled for canned ones. Still turned out OK, but not the same.

  37. User avatar mohamed.emard1 says:

    2 stars
    Ok, but I’m not sure if I did it right, the clams weren’t real open, and I think my olive oil was old. Magarita!

    1. 4 stars
      Don’t worry! It happens. Make sure the clams are fresh next time, and always check the oil. It should smell fruity, not rancid! πŸ…

    WOW! I feel like a chef now! This was a restaurant-quality meal at home! πŸ’•

      So glad to hear that! It really is a fancy dish but easy to make! πŸŽ‰

      I mean, it’s clams… but not everyone likes seafood, ya know? πŸ€”
