A little chilly. Food was quite good. Not sure why shiitake mushrooms were featured in an Italian dish, but otherwise a grand dining experience.

Our dinner was exceptional. The She crab soup was delicious and the shrimp and crab linguini was amazing. The restaurant ambience was cozy and intimate. You can have a conversation without lots of noise. Prices are reasonable for the quality you are receiving. We will be back and will tell friends and family about this experience.

Update MAR2023: We went back! Every visit to Claire's has been a treat for us. We enjoy the food, the ambiance, and the professional staff. We recommend this restaurant to anyone in a 50-mile radius to take the time and visit. You will not regret it.SEPT2022: Marvelous and fantastic staff! We stopped here for my birthday dinner before traveling north and I found the hostess was also celebrating her birthday that day. Great place - a must try!

Claire's is overpriced and overhyped and I think it's because of the lack of food options in Warrenton. Service is great. Ambiance is nice but a bit loud. Food is okay. I think they do appetizers and salads best. Their mains are mediocre. I had the filet and it was nothing special. My husband ordered a boneless ribeye and ended up cracking his back molar on a bone shard so bad that he had to get a root canal and a crown. I don't think we'll ever go back.

What a gem!! Everything was lovely, from the menu (I had a hard time choosing from the yummy options) to the service to the food! It's been a while since I've been so happy with a restaurant experience. Get the she-crab soup! It's awesome

Excellent restaurant, wonderful ambience, delicious dinner, and knowledgeable and friendly staff. The coconut shrimp and cucumber salad appetizer was a hit with everyone. We each had different dinners which were all exceptional - steak with mashed cauliflower (instead of truffle fries), the salmon, the half roasted chicken special, and the bourbon shrimp over pasta. For dessert we shared the crème brûlée which was amazing. The wines were delicious but a bit pricey for a glass. As a special treat we met the owner Claire who greeted each dining table. We are looking forward to going to Claire's at the Depot in Warrenton again real soon!

Exceptional dining experience set in what used to be former railroad Depot. The staff we're highly professional and really understood customer service the food is an incredible culinary experience. Though I spent more than I usually do it was well worth it.

We were there for Valentine’s Day 2024. They had a fixed menu with great options. The price was $100 per person plus drinks and tip. Our expectation was to have a quaint dinner for two in a relaxed setting. We ordered the baked oysters, which were barely warm when they got to the table, the salads were ok, the bread came out late, we ordered the filet and the halibut both were good. The wait staff were scrambling around, they were grabbing our plates when we were barely done with the bite and putting down the next plate. We ordered desert and before that arrived our bill was put on the table. We felt very rushed which with the cost of the dinner going over $300 was very frustrating. We got our dessert but felt to rushed to have an after dinner drink. We were extremely disappointed with entire experience!
