Restaurants in Claremont

“Best food ever , I had the hanger steak and my friend had the catfish. Worth the price on both meals . Definitely recommend this place . It’s best to make reservations.”

“Such a fun and engaging show! The actors are incredible and it was a great night! Such a fun puzzle!”

“Good service and good food”

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

“great place to have drinks and relax”

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

“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 !”

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

“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 👍”

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

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

“Very calm atmosphere and the music is loud enough to listen too and talk over on a nice date. Service was amazing they were on top of it with our food. Definitely would suggest going with ur italian bf because i needed the menu explained to me.”

“Overall 4star at best. Went for a date night to experience the Dia de los muertos fixed menu and it was pretty underwhelming. Cocktails are great. Tacos are very good but too damn small. Guac is excellent. Chile relleno very good. Service was atrocious though. Servers were hustling but booked too many patrons with short staff. Owner apologized and made it right by giving us a gift card to come back, which we will. Most times we come service is good. May have been homecoming weekend or something, seemed like an unusually large crowd Saturday night.
Keep making tweeks with the staff, menu and food to get those ratings higher. You guys are on the most prominent corner in downtown you have to stand up to that challenge and be the best. Ambiance and decor have that wow factor now the food and service need to catch up. Good luck.”

“First time coming here with the hubs and pup. We are trying to find more pet friendly places so we can include our fur son.

Sat outside. Super nice weather today. Plenty of shade. It was nice because there wasn't too many people but still a lot of distractions to continue to train our pup (he's 3 1/2 but still call him my pup) in public situations.

Had the cast iron skillet cornbread and it was everything that all the reviews say. Melt in your mouth goodness. I did not try the jalapeno jam but the honey butter was good.

I ordered the fried chicken with the mashed potatoes and collard greens. Everything was great. The mashed potatoes were very creamy. I would have liked some texture in them, but good flavor overall.

Husband got the gumbo. Shrimps were tender. Felt like I there wasn't a lot of protien included. 5 or so whole shrimp, very little sausage and chicken. Mainly veggies. The overall taste was good, just need to add a little more protein.

Will more than likely return since it is dog friendly and maybe try some actual BBQ!”

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

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

“The best italian restaurant”

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

“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.”

“I have lived here my whole life and I have never seen this place before. But once I saw it, we had to check it out. I got the Stawberry Banana Waffle and it was AMAZING! The Spicy Chicken Rice Bowl was SO good as well. I highly recommend this place for all ages.”

“Very good. Excellent service”

“Chefs are amazing and the wine choices are amazing”

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

“Clean kitchen, kind staff, & crepes are SO good 🤯 They also have vegan/ dairy free options 👍 Definitely recommend and we will absolutely be back ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

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

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

“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.”

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

“Shout OUT to Kash $ and Leo for making our first time visit extraordinary! The food was AMAZING along with the exceptional customer service! Definitely coming back for some more scrumptious food! THANK YOU!

MARINA & KEV”

“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.”

“The food was absolutely fantastic—some of the best Indian cuisine I’ve ever had. Truly flavorful and well-prepared.

However, the service left a bit to be desired. I requested knives but never received them, and there was a noticeable push to leave a positive review, which felt a bit forced. The staff also seemed focused on upselling extras, which took away from the overall experience.

The restaurant’s atmosphere is decent but nothing special.

Bottom line: the food alone makes it worth visiting, but service and ambiance could use improvement.”

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

“They have a interesting and unique drink menu”

“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.”

“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.”

“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”

“Came here after a round of golf. The owner was very nice and welcoming. She answered all my questions well. I got the garlic noodles and wings and added a drink and fries.

The garlic noodles and wings were great. I really enjoyed the flavor of both. The garlic noodles had plenty of garlic. I got it spicy and enjoyed the type of spice that it came with. The wings were well seasoned and very large. After frequenting Wingstop, their quality had drastically dropped in quality and size. I found it nice that the wings here were fantastic. I ordered the Soy Garlic and the Korean Spicy. The fries were also great. They had a great crunch to them and taste.

Overall, I enjoyed all of the food, but enjoyed the spicy garlic noodles even more so. I noticed that they also had a ramen setup with different korean ramens. The owner also recommended the dirty fries that comes with different types of fixings. I'll definitely come back to try those the next time.

You can park inside the parking structure and walk over conveniently.”

“✨ The Best ✨Korean fried chicken and don’t miss their pickled radishes ?
It’s take out only but it’s really good

Parking: It’s in a shopping center and there is plenty of spots.”

“Affirmation latte “kind hearted “”

“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”

“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.”

“I have mixed emotions about this place. First, the food is excellent! Buuuuuut, if the older woman who works there can't handle the pressures of the lunch time rush hour, she really should not be working at that time of day. OR, someone needs to step in and help her. It's very obvious that she does not handle stress well. She gets very snappy with the customers, even the nice ones!”

“My wife Lea and I had a great Saturday afternoon at Evolve. Rena Juliar one of the owners spent time with us explaining all their different drink options while we shared a tasting flight. The space has a great feel and look. We will be back for more.”

“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.”

“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.”

“I love spicy food and Ginkgo has the best delicious, spicy Chinese Sichuan food in our area.
The Sichuan Boiled Fish was especially memorable as the fish was fresh and tender. Must try!
Stir Fried Scallion Beef and Mapo Tofu were my kids’ favorite dishes.
We have been here many times and love everything we have tried so far.
The staff was super friendly!
Overall, the delicious food, impeccable service, and cozy ambiance made for a wonderful dining experience here.

Kid-friendliness: Open space”

“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.”

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

“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.”

“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!”

“staff are very welcomed and helpful”

“Classic 50s Americana and good”

“Cute little shop in the village ! They actually have good flavors ube , matcha milk and chocolate ! They gave out free samples and we liked ube best !! It came with a free topping too ! The matcha isn’t too overpowering . I like it as well may come back for more!”

“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.”

“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!”

“Apple pie ice cream, taste so good.”

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

“I’ve been going to El Ranchero for over 20 years. The food is good and the portions are great. I almost always have leftovers to have lunch the next day.”

“Our first time coming to try this Mongolian place & it definitely did not disappoint! Really delicious & amazing service, as soon as you walk in it smells amazing & very clean. Will definitely be coming back.”

“Amazing taco 🌮 experience”

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

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

“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”

“If you’re in Claremont, CA, and craving authentic Lebanese flavors, Al Amir Bakery is a must-visit. This family-owned gem specializes in manakeesh—Lebanese flatbreads baked to perfection. The za’atar and cheese manakeesh is a standout, featuring a harmonious blend of thyme, sumac, sesame seeds, and creamy white cheese atop a chewy, blistered crust. The hummus is smooth and creamy, while the foul (fava bean stew) is zesty with lemon and garlic, served with freshly baked pita. With its warm hospitality and affordable prices, Al Amir Bakery offers a delightful taste of Lebanon right in Claremont”

“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.”

“Located on First St in the Claremont village by the packing house parking structure. Lots of great choices, fresh fruit cereal candy. Great young crowd hangs here next to the starboard shop. Great energy”

“Claremont Village Eatery is delish! I've only ever gotten the breakfast burritos, but will be sure to try other things in the future.
Today, we got the Claremont Loop Burrito (no onion) and the Rhino Burrito. Both were great, and big enough to save half for lunch. Service was simple but kind. Inside the restaurant isn't too crowded, plenty of room to move around, and nice air flow.

Also, huge shout out for their chairs. They seem really thoughtfully chosen. Although they look like they might be the standard uncomfortable metal stacking chairs so many restaurants have these days, they are a nice size, don't cut into your hips, and they slide in and out really nicely (no loud metal screech!) It seems like such a simple thing, but being able to sit comfortably while you eat your meal is so nice!

I've also catered a large order of their breakfast burritos for my work and they were a hit! Definitely a great option if you need a hearty breakfast before a big event.”

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

“First time here and it was really nice. The food was great and it's a great place for a date or to catch up with friends. I'm only giving 4 stars because I had to wait a bit longer for my food to be brought out than my husband's. I will definitely be coming back and recommending to friends and family”

“Stellar speakers! Athenaeum is a part of Claremont McKenna College, a coeducational, private liberal arts with a curricular emphasis on economics, finance, international relations, government and public affairs.”

“We have been customers for over 20 years, the restaurant closed down for around four years, we are happy they reopened, same owner, same great food!, real home taste, great wine options and we never get tired of enjoying their offerings. Today we ordered Lomo Saltado, Sudado de Pescado, Tallarines Verdes con Bistec Apanado and for dessert, crema volteada. We recommend this place!!!”

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

“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.”

“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!”

“We have ordered from this location for many years now & they always provide impeccable service with great quality food!! Thanks to the whole Team, Jasmin, JuanCarlos, Logan, Matt(manager) & everyone, thanks for all the love :-)”

“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.”

“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!”

“Great atmosphere, great food, great service.. First time in California, I really loved the vibe and the food in this place,host was very cool, definitely recommend...”

“Great food, very clean and the decor is 50's cars. waitress was especially nice”

“Ordered a lot of tamales for our New Years get-together, and they were delicious! They even had vegan tamales for our plant-based eaters. Their red and green salsa goes well with the tamales (as advised) as well as their homemade guacamole. This is the place to order tamales for your parties!”

“Fresh food, staff is friendly with smiles. Very nice atmosphere. Very positive.Alot of barstool tables but you can get a table with chairs. If you eat there, you can get permission to use their restroom.”

“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!”

“I want to first preface this by stating that I gave the atmosphere 5 even though it's not a fancy restaurant.
Yesterday after an family Easter gathering I wanted pizza. l opted for the Gourmet Veggie Pizza. Yesterday's pizza was one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had. The pizza was so beautiful, the ingredients were fresh and it was baked to perfection. I can't rave enough about their Gourmet Veggie pizza. Whoever made my pizza yesterday, thank you thank you!”

“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.”

“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!”

“Great location for quick bite, great beer selection and I especially love the chicken wings here! Been all over world requesting chicken wings ..here is the best ..request Extra Crispy ..and side of fries. Youre welcome :-)”

“A very cute crepe restaurant in Claremont with an interior that may resemble the streets of Paris. But of course, you go here for the food. And the food is great! The crepes are very flavorful and the fillings are great. A little on the pricier side, but great food regardless. Check them out!”

“Happy to have one near us!! Yay!! It was nicely stocked, there was a good variety of pastries to choose from. The Employees at the register were kind and friendly!! � Awesome Service!!!”

“This contemporary yet cozy cafe specializes in mini donuts and a variety of drinks - coffee and non-coffee options. I had the Dirty Abuelita and half dozen mini donuts. Nice place to start the day with a bright streetside window and indoor plants.

Service was friendly, and the drink was good, but i would have preferred a bit hotter. I'd come again and try one of their other options.”

“Came in on Mother's Day for a cake pick up and it was very busy. There was only one employee and she had such a positive attitude. My order was not ready but they went out of their way to ensure I received it. Thank you to the employee working in the store and the one who called me to ensure I received my order.”

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

“Wonderful place to go and get some amazing fresh sandwiches. The employees here are friendly and very good at making great sandwiches. I enjoy coming here to have very satisfying meals that are prepared exceptionally well. I would recommend this location to anyone.”

“I gave 5 stars for food and drinks, it really is amazing. However the staff there is so bad. I usually stop by as i go to the gym next to it, and every time is the same cashier, between 11-1pm when i usually go, never says hi, always has an attitude and looks angry! Its a shame how great this place is, but the customer service is atrocious.”

“Very friendly, helpful and attentive staff. We stop at this location on a regular basis after consult with nearby doctor. Recently, I noticed free discarded coffee grounds, tried to load the bag into my car but it was too heavy. The barista noticed my struggle, she immediately offered to load the bag into my car. She was an angel. Hats off to her, wish I had obtained her name. Blessings to the staff at this location, you are second to none. 💗”

“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.”

“Loved the breakfast bowl!”

“Love the coffee, great food, and ambiance”

“My absolute favorite in the Village :) I love the Combination Meat Pad See Ew so much that I've probably eaten it 6 times already here. I also really like the staff because they're always so warm and welcoming. Pretty big portions too for the price. Will probably be my favorite in the Village always 😋”

“food, drinks and staff are excellent!”

“Good food and plenty of it”
