• Contemporary Southern • North Dallas

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. The décor has a southern influence with antebellum charm & elegant polish, stated most clearly in our reworked air stream trailer parked in the garden for VIP reservations. The whole restaurant will feel like a quirky southern aristocrat’s home…just not exactly what you might think.

Taverna is a warm and inviting neighborhood restaurant that offers a truly Italian experience without having to leave Texas. Our Italian chefs strive to create the perfect menu using seasonal ingredients for their surprising entrees; every day we present a variety of northern Italian delights from simple comforts such as pan seared sea bass to delicate pasta and fabulous risotto.Risotto is indeed our flagship dish. We only use Carnaroli rice – the “king of the rice”; thanks to its particular characteristics and firm texture the Carnaroli grain maintains its shape during the slow cooking required for a perfect and creamy risotto. Our broad offering includes truffle oil and Parmigiano risotto, bay scallops with home made pesto and an inspired Vin Santo risotto with asparagus and prosciutto.A taverna in Italy is a special place where customers become friends and family. Here we celebrate the essence of hospitality and farm-to-table cooking reflecting our authentic Italian style.

Every dish we tried was amazing and the service was excellent. We asked to be in a quieter area and were sat on the 2nd floor patio which was a great ambience and bit quieter than being inside. However there were several families with toddlers and infants near us, some of whom were crying and being allowed by their parents to crawl the area freely. We wished the staff would have discouraged that. There was also a table sat immediately behind ours and there was no room behind either of our chairs (backs of our seats were up against eachother). That made it a bit uncomfortable and loud once that table was sat because the louder gentlemen with that group were essentially conversing right in our ears. Overall still worth it but that took it from being an excited 5 stars to a generously rounded up 5 stars due to the food and service.
