Top Tags:
Ida Claire is a funky, southern influenced restaurant & bar open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The food is notched up southern but has influences from different regions. You’ll most likely see dishes you’ve heard of before but with little twists here and there.

Our sandwiches will be served on biscuits & we’ll have chicken & waffles on every menu. Brunch is obviously southern & will be a big part of what we do. The drinks are takes on classics like the Mint Julep but revved up & including a lot of house made ingredients.

The décor has a southern influence with antebellum charm & elegant polish, stated most clearly in our reworked air stream trailer parked in the garden for VIP reservations. The whole restaurant will feel like a quirky southern aristocrat’s home…just not exactly what you might think.

    This place is a GEM! Very good food and a fun atmosphere. The fried green tomatoes are awesome. The crawfish beignets are outstanding. You can tell they put a lot of work and “butter” into this extremely well seasoned delectable appetizer. There were 2 items that bothered me.. when we arrived.. the person at the rez desk ignored us for several minutes while using her work iPad.. and when we left.. no one ever said .. “hey thanks for coming..” these little things are important customer service items that make you feel welcomed after spending $100 for food. The other thing that bugged me is that within minutes of placing an order for fried chicken/waffles and shrimp and grits.. the food arrived. Now, this place calls it’s a scratch kitchen.. but you can’t make all that food.. especially the sauce for the shrimp and grits that quickly.. and it definitely showed in the texture of the grits. But please go.. I will be back to try more food.

    At start asked for separate checks. Waitress brought one check. Fried chicken only lukewarm. Couldn’t hear waitress because of noise. She was too soft spoken. Waitress started to clear table while one patron still eating.

    The spicy cauliflower appetizer was very yummy with a surprise cheesy biscuit at the bottom of the bowl☺️. Also, we all loved our sliders, chicken salad sandwich and BLT! First time for two of the guests and they loved it. Our waitress was patient with the fact we had a hard time deciding and she was very attentive.

    It was a Sunday night dinner and the restaurant was quieter than we have seen it before. It took almost 10 minutes for the server to come to our table and we had to ask if the section was even open. The Nashville cauliflower, fried green tomatoes and biscuits were good, but not great. The chicken and waffles and the blackened red fish were a B+, but the trout was a definite D. The cocktails were excellent - the margarita and the Contessa Sour are definitely recommended.

    Love LOVE the vibe here! The decor is really cool and fun. Most of the food was good. The seafood dip wasn’t that great however, the crawfish beignets and the biscuits were to die for! Fried chicken was yummy, along with the hot chicken. Seafood pasta was also yummy. The f’ing dong cake is huge and also recommend.

    I have never had a bad experience at Ida Claire, and this visit did not disappoint! We made reservations on Opentable and gave them a heads up that one of our party members has Alzheimer’s. They called us the day of and asked if we’d like to have brunch in the airstream. It was perfect! Even when a storm rolled in, we were comfy and cozy. I just felt awful for our server, Kristian, but his service was impeccable!! Shout out to all of the staff, especially Lisa, who made our visit wonderfully memorable! We started out with fried green tomatoes and (of course) Ida’s biscuits. Members of our party had chicken and waffles, Nashville hot tenders, and fried green tomato eggs Benedict. I was trying to choose between the avocado toast or the duck nachos…we were told “some people are team duck, and some people aren’t. I took the chance and discovered I’m definitely team duck!! Bravo, Ida Claire, for another job well done💕

    Service was fantastic. Great energy and crowd. Food was outstanding. The hot honey chicken sliders on potato buns are mouthwatering; chicken and waffles are arguably the best in the DFW area. The brunch cocktail menu is without a doubt the best in the DFW area; you cannot go wrong with anything on it. Highly highly recommend.

    Reservations made, reservations kept! Sat quickly and service, while had a short lull in service at the table, it was acknowledged and rectified and they added dessert...all without asking or griping and groaning...they just recognized it and took care of it. Food was fantastic, ambience as well...recommend Ida Claire highly!

    Fried chicken was very dry. Riblets were dry. Monte Christo - chef needs to read up on how to make it - two pieces of French toast do not equate to deep fried.

    This was my first visit and I needed to eat healthy. The menu provided enough options to satisfy my needs while also offering some southern staples I’ll come back and try on a splurge day. My meal was delicious and the server was very attentive. It got a little loud but it was lunch time and so very busy.
