We had guests arrive an hour and a half late which disrupted our meal and we never got back on track. I think that is what caused our service to be less than expected.

Spectacular. Derik was a phenomenal server. My mother’s commencement for her Phd was in the afternoon of the same day we went for brunch, and Derik brought her out a wonderful desert with the words “Congratulations Doctor”, written in chocolate! Aside from him, the food was delicious and the other hotel attendants, such as concierge, valet, receptionist, and hostess were all very friendly and warm. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone traveling near and far.

Contemporary Southern

Alamo Heights

About the restaurant

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.

OpenTable Diner

Dined on Aug 17, 2024

First and foremost, our waitress, Andrea, was OUTSTANDING!! She made our day. She was very sweet and made our visit very enjoyable. She felt like part of the family. We went to celebrate my sister's birthday and she made it even more special. The food was AMAZING!! Starting with the cinnamon roll and mimosas. We definitely will be returning and would love to sit in Andrea's section.
