Restaurants in Claremont

“Anyone that works the night shift is a special kind of champion. Not all heroes wear capes. Thanks, Earl! You're the best!”

“A Hidden Gem That Feels Like the French Quarter Itself! From the moment we stepped into The Quarter in Claremont, it was like being whisked straight to New Orleans. The atmosphere was electric — the scent of Creole spices in the air, the soft hum of conversation mingled with jazz playing in the background, and the decor that looked plucked right out of the French Quarter. I half-expected to walk outside and find a brass band on the corner! We started with the soft-shelled crab and grits, perfectly crisp and full of Southern comfort. The fried catfish topped with crawfish étouffée was rich, flavorful, and absolutely indulgent — pure Louisiana soul on a plate. The roasted catfish with lump crab was delicate yet decadent, each bite melting in your mouth. Even the bread and butter were unforgettable — the sweet Creole butter was so good we could’ve made a meal out of it alone. Our bourbon cocktails were spot-on — smooth, balanced, and crafted with care — and we finished with the bread pudding drizzled in warm bourbon sauce, which was heavenly. Every dish was layered with flavor and heart. A special shoutout to José, our server, who was not only attentive and friendly but truly made us feel like family. His recommendations were perfect! We live three and a half hours away, but honestly, I’d make the drive again just for a date night here. It’s that good. The Quarter doesn’t just serve food — it serves an experience.”

“Thanks Guys for the food it is a fun time I will come back on next Friday to get the chicken n fries and mushroom pizza when I’ll see you guys soon.”

“Good service and good food”

“Came for lunch, a little wait time since they're busy, but the service is excellent and the food is tasty.
Lunch special is very well worth the price.”

“Great experience at Dave’s Hot Chicken. The food was solid, heat level was on point, and everything came out fresh. What really stood out though was the service. Leilani was really cool, super friendly, and made the whole visit feel easy and welcoming. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to.”

“Fast, friendly, excellent service. They also have a good selection of beers at reasonable prices considering how expensive Claremont is. I love this place. Good Lagers, IPA's, and Stouts”

“Great finish on the chicken. Extra crispy crunch finish. Sauces are solid. Only negative is no seating. There's limited shared outdoor seating. The food best enjoyed as soon as made.”

“This place was so great, I ended up getting three drinks tonight. Favorite was definitely their house coffee, hazelnut flavor. Customer service was great too. I really liked the music and ambiance there. I'll definitely be back soon.”

“Ironbark is a very nice local brewery! They make and serve hard cider, there are some other drinks available and food trucks visit on the weekends with a variety of cuisine. There are musical events, pub, trivia, bingo, and Friday karaoke, as well as a monthly open mic night. It is a great friendly café type atmosphere and an LGBTQ+ safe space!”

“They have a interesting and unique drink menu”

“Scrumptious, moist, and irresistible describes the cake I ordered from Some Crust for my mother’s memorial service reception. The cake was impeccably crafted and the designers decorated it in exactly the manner in which we requested, “Not too much.” The frosting was strikingly smooth and the piping adorned only the bottom of the cake, ensuring the decoration was not too much. The colors of the yellow and red roses and the green leaves on top of the cake were tastefully muted and maintained the minimal emphasis of the decorations. It was a spice cake in which all the flavors blended perfectly without one flavor standing out too predominantly. It was delivered exactly at the time it was scheduled to arrive at the location. I highly recommend this bakery when you have an occasion that requires a specialty cake.”

“I recently discovered Juice It Up! Claremont, and I'm so glad I did. Their juices are so refreshing, and the staff is always happy to help me choose the perfect one.”

“It's always fresh, never had a bad meal here. There are tons of healthy options. My favorite. Meal is the blackened salmon with broccoli, potatoes and the lemon garlic sauce for dipping.”

“Thank you so much for the fresh delicious delivery...#supportlocalbusinessescovid-19”

“Affirmation latte “kind hearted “”

“Tiana was an amazing server! Food was delicious and drinks were amazing.”

“Wally is such a kind and pleasant guy so welcoming. I had the Burger and he even gave me an Empanada so i can know the taste. Both were excellent and good quality i will definitly be back when Im in tge neighborhood.”

“WONDERFUL place! Great acai bowls & empanadas! ( family liked chicken & steak /cheese) very friendly staff ... and helpful with explaining all the varieties to make the bowls. going back today to try more! wish we had this place in Florida. highly recommend. (prices are good too)”

“Great food! Ordered the XP dumpling. Its pretty good for the area. The onion pancake was delish too. I would ask to make it a bit more crispier next time. Overall, a great dining place. A typical taiwanese restaurant with great dumplings.”

“Wow! We came here to check out the ramen wall but ended up getting some bowls off the main menu instead. Tried the beef bowl and the wing bowl with spicy noodle and lemon pepper wings -- the rice was perfectly cooked and the meats and noodles where incredible. The servings are very generous as well, we both left stuffed.

The wait wasn't too bad considering everything was cooked fresh but apparently there's an order ahead option if you don't want to wait as long. They were playing good music and the noise level was such that we could hear each other but didn't feel like everyone was listening to our conversation.”

“Classic 50s Americana and good”

“Fantastic food. I had the black cod, it was light and fresh, I highly recommend. Great service by Kee and the coffee was excellent. This is a great place to meet clients for lunch or dinner because it is quiet and you can probably utilize the lounge areas outside. A great Claremont meeting place!”

“If I could give this place 10 stars out of five I would, I've been eating here for years and it's just as good every time. I always get the Lomo saltado with the potato things instead of fries the green sauce is out of this world. This is some last meal stuff I would recommend anybody come here for any occasion so good I'm so happy they reopened.”

“Delicious food. Their specialty salad is highly recommended. For the appetizer we really liked the ceviche.”

“I have been to Blue Fin Sushi for almost 8 years. I luv their sashimi salad. It is not to over the top and it is not simple. For me it is just right for a sashimi salad. My husband on the other side luv their glass noodle combination.”

“I love Pong great food great aubiance owner and staff are always friendly and attentive great date night place”

“Great food , and fair prices. The best Mediterranean food I had in the inland empire. it’s located in the new part of Claremont Village.”

“AMAZING food! Warm and welcoming staff. Very clean establishment. Fair price and outstanding quality. Al Amir is a must for anyone who loves good food made with a lot of love! 100000000/10”

“Very homey Italian restaurant, with tasteful decor on the walls, ambient music, and dim (but not dark) lighting. Ordered calamari, which was not bad per say, but lacked any crunch- the sauces the accompanied it had little flavor, to the already, fairly bland, calamari.
Although I did not order the salad, I was told that the dressing was pretty good. The salmon bisque was also just okay- nothing really stood out about it.
The sourdough garlic bread is absolutely delicious (though a pain to cut into neatly!). Lasagne and gnocchi dishes were both equally flavorful. Not pictured was the tiramisu with the delicious mascarpone, which is enough to share amongst two.
Although not something that can be entirely controlled for, it can get a bit loud inside from the other patrons.”

“We Loved everything we tried - such Wonderful organic food, prepared to perfection! We also enjoyed the unique old world atmosphere, and the service was excellent ! Thank you John, for a night we will never forget, and food we will have a hard time ever matching anywhere else !”

“Excellent customer service! And, best Detroit-style pizza 🍕 for 1500 miles 😋”

“Was a good time on Sunday evening listing to live music !!!”

“i ate so much boiled fish i feel like im giving birth in the car right now. there is cold air blowing on my face and my mouth tastes like soup. 5/5 i recommend prudence with serving sizes”

“I had the Chilaquiles with Longaniza, yummy they were so good the salsa tested authentic and homemade. My kids got the pancakes. The coffee was hot and fresh as well as the orange juice. The service was excellent they were fast and attentive.”

“WE HAVE NOT BEEN TO GUS'S IN YEARS BUT WITH THE FOOD AND THE SERVICE THAT WE HAD WE WILL BE RETURNING MANY TIMES IN THE NEAR FUTURE. WE MADE A RESERVATION AND WAS IMMEDIATELY ESCORTED TO OUR OUTSIDE TABE THAT WE REQUESTED WITH OUR RESERVATION. SERVICE WAS VERY PROMT AND PLEASANT. JUST A MEMORABLE EVENING”

“The best italian restaurant”

“I've been going to Viva Madrid since about 2008 and I always get a variety of their tapas. Many of the same ones every time. I've introduced this restaurant to more then 20+ people who now take their friends and families. The food is delicious but lately I'm having to ask for extra sauce on the chicken empanada (which is my favorite) and the spicy potatoes. If you don't, half will be without sauce and will be dry. Also try their red Sangria. It's delicious.”

“Came from out of town visiting had a big group of 10 with some kids. They were quick to accommodate, even though they were busy. Service was great, food was great, ambience was great. We really enjoyed our dinner there and we'll be back.”

“Love the family style dining ❤️Great spot for celebrations”

“First time there got there before it closed.I ordered a plate with 2 proteins that were really delicious, chicken and steak. The fire feta and hummus were very good. The price was a little crazy but I really enjoyed the meal. The customer service was awesome.”

“OMG, great food, great service and great experience. Food galore. Kept bringing food for the Sunday buffet time. The champagne was excellent. Drove a distance to get to this place. It was worth it. The front two girls were awesome. The service gentlemen were great. Kept filling up the champagne flutes. Definitely, coming back. Very happy place. Thank you for a great service.”

“Friendly owner and workers plus delicious pastries. What more could you ask for?”

“BEST sushi ever! So fresh and noticeably better/fresher than other sushi. Loved the blue fin Mmm👅 Chill atmosphere. Perfect place, fast service too with plenty of options. They can make it anyway you want it 👍”

“Outstanding ice cream and service!! Loved the options and I will absolutely be back my mom lives down the street! 5 stars anytime ice cream! New summer vibes for summer 2025.”

“Delicious food and friendly, attentive service! I had never eaten Mongolian barbecue before, but their instructions and labels were very user-friendly. I'm looking forward to coming again.”

“Whenever I visit family in California we always dine at this restaurant. The only thing I can say is it would be good have plates made of porcelain instead of plastic . It will make the food taste more authentic and delicious! I love Thai food and have been to Thailand a couple times.”

“ABSOLUTELY love BARDOT! Amazing food and great atmosphere!”

“Great customer service & food. Our family had a very nice time there celebrating our Daughter’s Birthday. 🥳 Can’t wait to go back. 🍻🎂🥂”

“Try the Chicken Quesadilla from the Appetizers menu. Half will fill you up, take the other half home!”

“I visited Wolfe's Market Kitchen and Deli for the first time this week while picking up a customer order.

It is a very clean and busy location.

The employee who assisted me was very nice.

It looks like a great place to order from.
I may return on my personal time to order from their menu.”

“You can always get a great beverage and meal at The back Abbey.”

“Enjoyed the cheese board and a few excellent wines in the tasting.”

“Very good. Excellent service”

“great place to have drinks and relax”

“Su comida deliciosa y mis amigos Juan y Yolanda unas finísimas y amable personas por cierto hoy tortas ahogadas estilo guadalajara los espoeramos”

“This is a hidden in plain site gem !!! If you like wine please support this awesome place. I will be going again very soon…..”

“Delicious. Great portions. Worth it! Would recommend to anyone who wants to try deconstructed sushi.”

“Some places aren’t just restaurants—they’re memory machines. For my dad, this Round Table was the taste of high school, sweat still on his jersey after a game, friends piling into booths, and the kind of pizza that made the world feel bigger than it was. Coming back here for his birthday wasn’t just dinner, it was a return ticket to those nights. This is a franchise, sure, but ownership matters—and this one gets it. The hospitality wasn’t some corporate script; it was human, generous, and real. They went out of their way to make the night feel special. My dad lit up. That alone was worth five stars. And yes, they had anchovies. The true test. Salty, sharp, unapologetic—the topping that separates the tourists from the lifers. Combine that with friendly, attentive service and you’ve got the kind of place where you don’t complain, you just eat, drink, and remember why simple things matter.”

“Very friendly service. The ice cream was delicious! We’ll definitely be back soon to try more offerings.”

“This place is so different, hosting a truly fun and vibrant atmosphere. The food is excellent, and I love their bahn mi, shrimp and pork spring rolls, and vermicelli noodles. It is truly such delicious place that I DoorDash it sometimes! The picture is of a specific kind of vermicelli noodle that I’ve never had before but it was absolutely scrumptious!”

“Loved the breakfast bowl!”

“Amazing taco 🌮 experience”

“I am hooked on the savory honey BBQ chicken and waffles or crepes. I alternate back and forth between the two because they're both so good. Owner is so nice everytime we come here.”

“Such delicious poke! It was so fresh and tasty and the service is amazing! I love that they even have crawfish. It’s so good. Kaeli made my bowl and was so kind and helpful 😊 My friend Shannon and I love this spot!”

“Chefs are amazing and the wine choices are amazing”

“Amazing small owned business! Owners were so kind and helpful. We tried their soft serve ice cream. So soft and smooth. Tried limited edition Dubai & brown sugar boba ice cream cups. Def recommend it, so delicious
And I love their color changing spoons, you can take your time to enjoy your ice cream. Will be coming back to try more on the menu”

“A Daily Delight at This Subway! I'm a frequent visitor to this Subway location, and I can't help but sing its praises. Day in and day out, they deliver an exceptional experience. First off, the food here is consistently fresh and delicious. Whether I'm ordering a BLT or something else from their menu, I know I can count on top-notch ingredients and flavors. What sets this Subway apart is the outstanding service. The team takes the time to make a genuine connection, asking how my day is going and what exciting plans I have for the weekend. It's these little moments of friendly conversation that elevate the experience. The morning crew is always on point, ensuring a smooth start to the day. And when I swing by in the evening, the night crew impresses me with their efficiency and dedication to getting the job done right. In fact, I'm so impressed with the service here that I don't mind going the extra mile, literally, to visit this Subway. It's worth the effort to enjoy not just a fresh BLT with everything but also the warm and welcoming atmosphere they provide. This Subway is a shining example of how exceptional service can turn a routine meal into a memorable experience. Kudos to the entire team for their outstanding efforts!”

“Great food but a very busy place and sometimes the wait can be tough, especially when you are hungry.”

“Everyone at this Coffee Bean was SO NICE. It was like walking into an imaginary world. Jackie took my order and encouraged me to use my app. She was the best! Then Marlene who made my drinks helped me get a carrrier and apologized for the wait—THERE WAS NO WAIT. I asked for the other names to write this review and Alyssa (sp?) who made my matcha was super nice too. THANK YOU”

“Delicious! Just so you know this is a Ghost Kitchen located inside Dog Haus, also every location has a different menu. Got the chili fries and chili burger. Both delicious! Tastes like Tommy's. Also you have to place your order ”

“I love this place, the only thing that could wake me up at 7am on a Sunday is a $2 latte 🤩 their food is also fresh and super tasty, without mentioning those mini donuts! They’re addictive for sure and will make you come back.”

“I'm a pregnant mom and trying to spontaneously induce my labor this place has awesome date and the way they dress up the fruit bowels you barely taste the dates I highly recommend”

“The best customer service we ever had! We were traveling to LA for the Harry Styles’ shows and ordered the cherry pants and added expedited shipping so they would arrive before we had to catch our plane. Two days out and still no pants. Working with McKenna and Katie, they offered to drop off a pair at our hotel when we arrived. Fortunately the pants showed up the day before our flight so they didn’t have to make that trip. I would definitely order from them again, super great customer service and cute cute cute items!”

“What kind of say about anyone choices? It has so many great options for our family. I am more into the sweet side so I love getting my peanut butter and chocolate. My wife is more on the delegate. It doesn’t like her stuff sweet so we get a yogurt based vanilla option for her like I said there’s plenty of options for everyone picky, eaters or not everyone has something to pick”

“Super delicious frozen yogurt! I love the concept of a Coldstone like set up, but with froyo. The prices seem steep, but the sizes are large, which makes up for it. I love all the fun combos you can make and the frequently rotating flavors.”

“They have real glass coffee cups to use on premises.”

“This place is awesome. Super friendly staff that make pretty great drinks. I got the Spanish latte, not too sweet, and had a good spice flavor, could really taste the cinnamon. The place is super cute, and my favorite part is how they donate 100% of their profit to charity. It's not often you see a cafe like that. Also, it seemed like they brought people with special needs in to have them help clean and give them some work, which was really sweet to see. Love this place.”

“I wouldn’t say it was Mexican food! I had grilled shrimp and rice with mushrooms and sautéed vegetables! Everything was so good!!”

“Iced Match Latte is the only thing I get at Starbucks. Thought I'd try it here, but it came in a TALL, which is a TINY cup. And with block ice in it rather than a small amount of chipped ice, the drink was gone in a sip. And for $5.25. Please note that the standard size for this drink is a Grande. With only one size option available, people will expect that size. The TALL is so small. Nice atmosphere and kind staff, so I did not complain as I don't seek to make workers feel bad for something that is not their fault. I will stick to the main stores in the area though, since this is the only drink I get.”

“So delicious!!! I’m a big fan of this place. Tasty, healthy food, with plenty of fun, customizable offerings!

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free, dairy free, and nut free options

Parking: Park at Trader Joe’s. Free 45 minute parking”

“Very down-to-earth group of people that make you feel welcome. Lots of good times all centered around some healthy running/walking together.”

“Cute breakfast and coffee spot in Claremont village. There is an outdoor table but if that is taken there is a ton of small shaded parks with nice seating nearby. I grabbed a table out front of city hall a half block away. The service is awesome, she came outside to take my order and payment since I had my dog with me. My egg and cheese and onion breakfast bagel was tasty.”

“The place has amazing menu options, all the staff were amazing especially Kirklyn was super helpful and lovely!! Made our experience so great🤍✨ Would definitely come back and recommend!!”

“I used to frequent the Claremont location, was pretty excited not to drive all the way To Claremont. First disappointment, this place doesn’t just sell the only meat, either a pita sandwich or a plate, which I need since I made my own sides. Second disappointment after order something I wanted since you don’t sell just the meat, my order was so over cooked and dry, the cooked seems to and extra sauce to make moist again- pretty disappointed. The service was great, just the quality of food was horrible.”

“Love the coffee, great food, and ambiance”

“I recently visited Star Wok in Claremont, CA, and ordered their three-item combo featuring orange chicken, beef with broccoli, and teriyaki chicken. The portions were generous, and every dish was fresh and bursting with flavor. Definitely a satisfying meal that hit the spot. I’ll surely be coming back for more!”
