    Great service! Amazing blueberry mules. Like i would come every day to drink them if I could. Super cute seating outside in the silver trailer. It's adorable for a birthday brunch or a brunch with your girls. I got the chicken and waffles along with biscuits for an appetizer. The avocado toast is super flavorful.

    Great place for hearty southern style food. Reservations are recommended for peak times as I had around a 30 minute wait on a Sunday at 2pm. Chicken on the Chicken and waffles were so juicy that my fork would pull apart the meat at the lightest touch. Appetizers could have been better I think regular tortilla chips would make it a lot better as the potato chips made it very heavy and salty. Service was great too. They have what seemed like 15 waiters on staff so orders were taken and brought very fast.

    Came here for lunch with a friend as we wanted to try Southern American cuisine and we had a lovely time. The customer service was great and our waiter made sure to stay attentive. We started off with the fried green tomatoes and gumbo and they both were equally delicious! For my main, I ordered the spiced grilled chicken and the portion size was full and food cooked quite nicely. Lastly, I tried their pie and while I’m not too fond on pecans the pie was hot and tasty! I will definitely come back here to try out other items on the menu as we had a great time!

    Highly recommend making a reservation. The private airstream is a separate reservation that will need to be done when available and well ahead of time. Check the menu online for food options and pricing. The parking lot has a good number of spaces but not clean paved. Nice place for brunch. Food is all made fresh, in house. Our service was good and friendly. I would suggest they bring more than 1 milk bottle of water when there are more than 6 people at the table. Anything with ham is very salty, and that's probably just the way it's seasoned and cured. Just keep this in mind if you don't like alot of salt or have sodium restrictions. The cauliflower shared plate is spicy and delicious. You may want to order more for a table larger than 4. The pull-apart cinnamon "roll" was good but honestly, nothing special.

    I really like this place. The ambiance was Beautiful! The waiter was no nice as well. They said the wait was for 35 minutes when we got there at 12:15 but it seemed like we only waited 10 minutes. The in house made chips are really good. That was a beautiful time we had and I will definitely be going back again.

    We visited for our Cousin's Weekend. The brunch was amazing & our service was outstanding! Our server even asked if anyone had any food allergies. Be sure to call for a reservation in advance because they get busy quickly! Good portions & prices. I had the Fries Green Tomato Eggs Benedict & Savory Grits with a Froze. Other choices at our table were the Brunch Burger, Chicken & Waffles and Ida's Stack. Beautiful place with a great vibe. Will visit again!

    I had no expectations when I went into Ida Claire and I left very content. I loved the atmosphere and the fun things they do to try and promote community, but in all I came for the food, which was really good. I had a few things and besides the affordable price I feel it had a ton of flavor. My second time in I was a little disappointed in my meal. I feel that in the few months since I last visited they got rid of much of the charm they previously provided and the solid prices seem to have vanished. I'm not sure if I'll be returning, but it's not bad either way.

    A unique spot to hang out at, and an amazing brunch spot. Food was really tasty and the drink selection has a mix of modern and classics. The Notorious FIG was a pretty good one, and the Espresso Martini (while I wouldn’t call it best in class) was well made even though I am a bit of a purist. Well worth an in town trip, group get-together, or date night.

  • 3/5 Michelle S. 3 years ago on Google
    My appetizers was the seafood dip with chips. That was so good. This is the French Toast, it was ok. I was hoping for thicker bread, but the sauce made it better. Over all, I would visit again.

  • 3/5 Justin H. 3 years ago on Google
    Made reservations, got there early and still had to wait 10 minutes after scheduled time. Our appetizer came to the table, I did not have any silverware. Ended up flagging down another staff member to get them. The food was very good!

  • 5/5 COURTNEY H. 3 years ago on Google
    This place would be a fun first date. Guys, pay attention. Its unique, its hip and food is so delicious and for ur vegetarian dates, they cater great for us non meat eaters;)

  • 5/5 Raven 1 year ago on Google
    We came during happy hour and stayed for dinner. The bartender, Darby, was spectacular! She recommended great drinks and took amazing care of us. The food was so good. The ribeye was cooked and seasoned to perfection. The happy hour appetizers were delicious and a great price. The setting is really cute with a country vintage flair. The bathrooms were clean. I’ve been here for brunch before also and the experience was just as great. Love this place!

  • 5/5 Alan M. 1 year ago on Google
    Staff incredibly friendly and polite. They appear to genuinely enjoy their job - refreshing. Peachy Keane was well balanced. Fried green tomatoes were delicious and the sauce amped it up. Shrimp and grits have an incredible Parmesan flavor and reminiscent of cornbread stuffing. Not quite a 5 but far from a 4. Great meal!

  • 5/5 Josiah F. 1 year ago on Google
    What an awesome place!! Love the theme here, plenty to look around at inside. Couldn't get enough of your drinks!! Very cool and very tasty! By far one of the best southern restaurants I've ever had so far! What a great experience.

  • 5/5 Monica W. 1 year ago on Google
    I wish I came with a bigger appetite. Fried green tomatoes just delicious and I tried to get through the peach pie, but couldn't. It was amazing. Loved the decor, music, and vibe of this place. Will be going back to try more dishes and another blueberry mule. Make a reservation now!!

  • 5/5 Pamela 1 year ago on Google
    This place was amazing. The ambience was great. I had the Nanny's winter salad with grilled chicken as well as the forbidden fruit drink. My friend ordered another type of salad as well as the grits and shrimp. Thank you David and Jasmine for helping us with our order. Thank you as well Joel. He managed to take some time to stop by our table to make sure our lunch was prepared as requested with a smile!😁 Our good was!!!😇 All was great!🥳

  • 4/5 SheReviewz 1 year ago on Google
    My first visit was just okay so I had to try it again and overall it was worth it. We had reservations and still ended up waiting a bit, because it was the weekend and they were busy. The service was nice and I appreciated the small attention to detail with their decor. There’s a parking lot in the back with sitting areas outside. They also have an old bus turned into a dining room outside on the patio. Cute patio area.The food was pretty good. We had the shrimp and grits, po’boy, and chicken and waffles. The drinks were also good and had a little kick to them. I would recommend for dinner or brunch!

  • 5/5 Rachael T. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the better places I’ve eaten at for brunch. Everything is made in house and the food is rich in flavor. The staff are friendly and take good care you you. They all seem to be happy to work there. We sat at the chef table and got to see them prepare the food and we even talk to the head chef. He takes care of every detail before the food comes out and has cheerful banter with the other chefs and waitstaff. The ambiance is cheerful and laid back, nice community feel. If you want to dine in the airstream next to outdoor seating you will need to make a reservation in advance. It looked really cute inside.

  • 5/5 Jason O. 6 months ago on Google
    Our first visit and we were blown away. First is the great entry with flowers, benches and an Airstream trailer. Very cool. We got a table right away and started with Bloody Mary’s, they were quite tasty, but needed some vodka. Our server was very attentive, the bathrooms are clean and no sticky floors to be found. I had the creole gumbo and steak frites, both were exceptional. The entire interior was very welcoming and had a calming effect. The bar had plenty of cold beer on tap, and the design is cool. This will not be our last visit.

    Fun place; great southern comfort food. Make reservations if you don’t want to wait. Great bartenders. My favorite drink is not on the menu anymore, but the bartender made it for me! The shrimp and grits are my favorite. The fried green tomatoes are great. We had the crawfish corn beignets. They are excellent hush puppies; don’t expect light and airy. Oh and definitely get dessert! Service was excellent.

  • 5/5 Hidden G. 6 months ago on Google
    Hands down the best brunch experience that I’ve ever had. The food, service, and location were unbelievable. I wish we had a place like this at home as I’d be a frequent visitor! I had the fried chicken plate with the watermelon salad. They made my chicken Nashville style at no additional charge. The chicken was super crispy and the spice level was perfect. The salad was tasty and refreshing. Others in my party enjoyed their dishes as well and I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in Dallas. Be sure to make a reservation as the place gets really busy on weekends!

    •Atmosphere and staffing were welcoming and very attentive! Not just attentive, but also had wonderful personality. •Food- I had the fried green tomatoes (Highly recommend) and Texas Redfish. I'd get both again! The taste of the espresso martini was average, but I was a bit disappointed how small it was for the price ($13 I believe). As someone who drinks a lot of water, I appreciate having the pitcher at our table. •Parking- There is plenty between the 2 restaurants and well lit, no complaint from me there. •Live music- this was a pleasant surprise. I'd go back just to listen and sit at the bar. •My biggest complaint is how close you are to other tables at the half booth tables. The waiter could barely stand between the two. Don't love sitting a couple feet from people and listening to their colorful language half the night.

    My second time to dine at this location, this time I came with clients. Great decor, a little noisy for conversations but we managed. The food was great, but the waiter kept trying to rush us, and this was someone I hadn't seen in 5 years so when we asked when they closed when we sat down, that should have been a hint. They told us 11pm so we thought we were fine. We were having a great time until they turned the lights up at 10:15 - we took that as a hint that it was time to go.

  • 5/5 Neha R. D. 6 months ago on Google
    Delicious brunch! I got the green tomato benedict with ham on the side to make it vegetarian. I loved how they used biscuits as the base. The menu had a variety of classics and unique takes, so it was a difficult decision on what to get! The others in my party had fried chicken dishes and loved their meals. Overall, this place is a must visit if you are in the DFW area!

  • 5/5 Matty J. 3 years ago on Google
    recently moved to Dallas, this place is the perfect spot to bring friends and fam when they visit, amazing atmosphere on top of GREAT FOOD! Presentation, quality & taste is off the charts

  • 5/5 Tylovesgreatfood 3 years ago on Google
    The drinks are perfectly made! The hurricane is the best I've had in years. The fried green tomatoes I will be back for. The chicken and waffle had chicken that was seasoned and I even liked the white gravy and do not usually like white gravy at all. The service is great. This place will not disappoint you. Dogs can sit on the patio if you are a dog lover.

  • 5/5 Kayla H. 3 years ago on Google
    I really enjoyed eating at Ida Claire! The service, food, and atmosphere are great. They had GREAT coffee! I tried the fried green tomatoes, Nashville hot cauliflower, and the chicken waffles (didn’t get a pic of that because I was so hungry ha). The flavor was great and I really enjoyed their fried chicken. I will definitely visit Ida Claire again when I’m in DFW!

  • 5/5 anthony r. 3 years ago on Google
    My wife & I really enjoyed our visit at Ida Claires. We both ordered the Nashville hot chicken & waffle, eggs over easy with gravy & syrup on the side. Our waitress Angie was very attentive and was quite knowledgeable of the menu. The restaurant's atmosphere has a calm & luxurious feel. The music playing in the background sets off a positive vibe. We had an amazing experiences and we'll definitely be back👌

  • 5/5 Kimberly C. 3 years ago on Google
    Absolutely loved this eclectic little eatery. The menu had so many gems so we tried everything. The fried green tomatoes and the grits are a must. We were visiting from New York but will definitely be returning on our next visit to Dallas. Our server Zoe was absolutely amazing as well

  • 5/5 Chuck D. R. 3 years ago on Google
    Loved this place. Very attentive staff with wonderful personalities. We ate in the airstream, lovely atmosphere, so comfortable. The food though? STAR of the show. Definition of delicious. Can't wait to go back. And if I haven't been clear enough, I HIGHLY recommend you eat there at your EARLIEST convenience.

    Love this place! Great service and better food. We had the biscuits with gravy and cinnamon rolls for appetizers then we split the Nashville chicken with toast.

  • 5/5 Kimberly S. 3 years ago on Google
    We decided to use Ida Clare to cater two work events this week. What a treat it was for everyone!! Their chicken and waffles catering service was amazing and a huge hit with our employees. We ordered multiple lunch boxes a couple days later, everything was delicious!! The apple rye and chocolate pecan pies were to die for! The catering manager was easy to work with, (critical detail!) everything was hot, fresh and DELISH!! This will be a regular restaurant for us to visit. My next trip will be with my husband to eat inside, because I hear the ambience in there is great! Thanks to all the staff at Ida Clare for making our holiday special in this complicated year!!!

  • 5/5 Mayra M. 3 years ago on Google
    After trying to find a place to eat brunch on a Saturday morning with no reservations. We walked into Ida Clarke and they immediately sat us down. The customer service was awesome on a busy Saturday morning. Everyone was very friendly. The best part was the food! I would highly recommend trying this place out.

    We had a blast. Southern DELICIOUS food and Hospitality! Victoria made sure we wanted for nothing. When you go, ask for her. She’s easy on the eyes too! We had Duck Nachos. Yes, it’s a thing. We also had Crab beniet (I’m sure it’s spelled wrong, whatever! 🤪 We also had Nashville Cauliflower! Totally awesome!

  • 5/5 Bee E. 3 years ago on Google
    MUSTS: try the fried green tomatoes! We went for brunch on New Years. Definitely recommend making a reservation. The waitress recommended the chicken and waffles and said it was different than any I’ve had before. She was RIGHT! Honestly delicious. Wasn’t sure about the egg in it but it made it so much better. Love the decorations, the service and the vibes.
