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.

    The eggs snd waffles were cold. The salad that came with fried chicken had grapes that were sour. My shrimp salad had too much dressing and seemed old. A side dish was ordered with the meal. It did not come until we had finished our meal. I have eaten there many times before and always good. I took OOT friends and had to apologize for the meal. Will add that the biscuit appetizer was the not thing we enjoyed!

    Great food (as always) - first time to try their brunch menu. I love their regular biscuits - but their blueberry biscuits were even better! Service started slow but improved quickly. Noise level was very low when we arrived but had picked up by the time we left - still not as bad as in the evening. We'll keep on going back.

    Overall I really liked Ida Claire’s and will probably go back because the food was good and a step up from other Addison restaurants. However, it was pricy ($200 for brunch for 4 before tip) and it was loud - enough so that conversation was hard and we commented on it several times. Also, there were several missteps with service such as serving 2 of our 3 appetizers after our entrees arrived and never acknowledging it.

    9/12/23 1:45pm Update: A Positive Outcome! FULL Corporate Apology and that was very appreciatively accepted! My issues were acknowledged & properly addressed and I will return as their guest to try the restaurant again in the future. Original posting: Entree food was horrible and mostly uneatable - The Good: The Service was good and our server Katie was very nice and attentive. Fried Green Tomato appetizer and cornbread were very tasty. The Bad: I made reservations for 2x me and friend, we were seated in a place where she was facing the restaurant and I was facing a closed curtained window and could not see ANYTHING but the Motel 6 chevron pattern design 4 feet in front of my face. The Ugly: I ordered the Ribs and the brussel sprouts. 75% of the ribs were uneatable fat [normally all that's left on a plate of good ribs are nice clean bones] my plate had a pile of spit out mangled disgusting fat which constituted 3/4 of each rib - no one saw that before cooking or serving that $19 entree ? The ala carte side brussel sprouts were grey - I've never seen grey food. They had no taste and the texture was ashes - cooked or what? not sure how to describe but like burnt toast without the toast part, just charred ashes. Told the server, she agreed they were way over cooked; I asked for a manager to know, no one came and yes I paid for that uneatable side. Check photos of the ribs [I took them home so I could take photos, forgot the sprouts but trust me on that] the entire order of meat looked like that. 3/4 fat down the side and back. I would have liked a little meat with my meal. I spent $45 total on food and tip [yes left Katie 20%, she didnt make the food] I will not recommend this place to anyone based on my experience last Sat night.

    The Oyster Po Boy Sandwich was not my favorite entree on this visit. Too much bread in relation to the oysters. However, the fried green tomatoes and the Chicken BLT were very tasty and enjoyable. Without any reservations, I shall return.

    Overall I would give our experience a 2.5/3 out of 5. The deal breaker was the AC not working (& according to our server, it hasn’t worked in two weeks). Triple digit temperatures, coupled with a packed restaurant and heat pouring from the kitchen makes for an uncomfortable dining experience and everyone around us grabbing whatever they could to fan themselves. We fully understand things breaking down in a business, but when the average temperature outside is between 107-110 degrees you can’t afford to go two weeks with no AC.

    This was my third time to Ida Claire, the other two times had been lovely. Came for brunch one time and sat on the patio, beautiful day. This time I think there must have been something wrong with the AC because it was hot, we sat next to the bathroom and in front of a large window that seemed to suck up all the hot air. We were all sweating and uncomfortable. The drinks and food were good but the hotness of the place killed the atmosphere and I really couldn't wait to leave. Hopefully, they can fix this problem. It seems to be warm every time I go, not sure if I will go back. Lastly, I really do not like sitting at a high top that you have to share with people you don't know when you are trying to have an intimate conversation and when requested a table. This has happened both times I have sat inside.

    The restaurant is full of charm. Little details that contributed were the adorable menus, glassware, and decor. Crab cake was delicious! I had the steak salad and subbed salmon and it was so good! Spicy and flavorful. The Notorious F.I.G. cocktail is a must. Live music was great, bar was large and comfortable, service was great - highly recommend

    What a perfect spot to go to brunch! It is BEAUTIFUL inside. We were celebrating a very special day and the staff went the extra mile and wrote a congrats card. Not only that, but they made sure we were taken care of from fun cocktails to amazing entrees. This place is a GREAT vibe. 5 stars across the board for me! Highly highly recommend.
