Overall, I thought this dish was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either.

I'm not sure if it was the clams or the sauce, but this dish gave me a stomachache.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce turned out really watery. It was still tasty, but it wasn't as good as it could have been.

This herbed clam linguine was a hit with my family! The clams were cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful and light. I added a bit of extra lemon juice and parsley to brighten it up, and it was perfect.
