I'm striking out searching the Internet. I'm looking for restaurants with unique menu items similar to clydz with things like alligator, Python and rabbit. Anywhere in NYC, NJ or Phi...anyone have a recommendation?
 
In Cape May, its called the Mad Hatter or the Mad batter I forget. very unusual menu
 
Try Chengdu 46 or 1 and order from the authentic sichuan part of the menu. Really great stuff.
 
Thanks all. Definitely some interesting ones on that list knight90....thx mrs screw but I stated Clydz in the op because I've been there a lot. I was looking for something similar.
 
Dark Side of the Moo. I've only eaten from their food truck in hoboken but I believe they have an actual spot in jersey city (I think?)
They have alligator sausage, kangaroo, wild boar, and other more out there meats along with some more traditional items.
 
I think a duck hot dog is pretty unique, no?

I had that one today, but it's just duck sausage and it tastes, well, like sausage (yes it has confit on it), so it's fairly unique, but not "wild game" unique, like Clydz, which is what the OP is looking for.

To the OP, as someone said above, you have to go to the Sergeantsville Inn, which is pretty famous for wild game.

NYC: Congee Village in Chinatown if you like Chinese food.

Here's a sampling of some of the unusual things on the menu:

Ducks Blood with ginger and scallions
Baked fish intestines
Goose Intestines with black bean sauce
Sauteed Sweet Pea pod and duck tongue
Boneless chicken feet
Steam chicken and frog
Frog meat porridge
Pork stomach porridge
Cold Jelly fish
Steamed fish head in black bean sauce

Very reasonably priced and large portions but bring an interpreter. English is a second language and hardly any of the waiters speak it.
 
It's not the craziest menu, but if you're looking for something like a New Orleans restaurant the Ragin' Cajun in Belmar is very good. They always have great alligator on the menu. It's BYOB, but features live music most nights.
