Creative, inviting menu. I chose recommended popular dish of green something eggs, and it was delicious. Pleasant to sit outside, where it was easy to hear each other. Plentiful portions, nice service, tasty fresh food.
Amazing service and food. Menu selection is not overwhelming and a good selection is presented. Coffee is good and they make their own inhouse coconut milk. The vibe is very friendly with humans and dogs allowed outside. Great place for family/friends or small breakfast date....If I was in the area I’d definitely go there again.More
We came here for breakfast. The wait was almost an hour which was fine for us to wait. Good food and excellent coffee. My only critical note is on their buttermilk biscuits. Too thin, came sliced and burnt. They should have kept whole and not...grilled.More
It's always great to find a spot that is simple and does what they do extremely well. Claire's is one of those spots. We came for breakfast and it was excellent. It's the type of place, I'd return to multiple times if I lived there.
This place has something for everybody. Even your four legged friend is welcome here. We did not have to wait and sat outside at a picnic table. No frills. Just amazing food and friendly service. We will be back.
we have stayed in solana beach multiple times and have been wanting to go here for a meal but this was our first time....won't be the last. wait time was tolerable (10 minutes),ambiance was a 10...a beautiful restaurant with multiple seating areas. the lunch menu...is incredible. i had the peruvian chicken sandwich and consumed the whole thing. my partner had the mahi tacos and didn't leave a crumb. fabulous flavors. service was excellent. there is a downside however. no dessert. you actually have to get up and wlak th 50 feet to clare's too, other side of the drive to get some of the best pastry this side of the moon. i had a chocolate chip macaroon that barely made it out of the parking lot. we leave california in another week, so yes we will be back to clare's. it is indeed the best in townMore
Cedros Ave is the main drag in Solana Beach . . . Claire's epitomizes the laid back, friendly vibe of Solana Beach with healthy choices.
Excellent for lunch! We went after hiking on a Tuesday and were seated immediately! The staff were very helpful in menu information, along with having a cheery and kind disposition. Our food was so superb! The Salmon Fennel salad has a ton of toppings and...the steak was cooked perfectly. My only criticism is that the bathroom was messy.More
Our new favorite breakfast spot. The dishes were fresh, tasty, and fairly priced. Plenty of parking. Service was great. The only confusing thing is we checked in online but when we arrived we still waited nearly 15 min just to get to the hostess. People...were being seated as walk ups even though the app told us it was a 45 min wait. Odd and a bit frustrating.More
Clare’s food & service is excellent, BUT the reason I did not give it 5 stars is the FLIES! We were constantly shooing flies away from our faces and food. Something needs to be done about this! A whole bunch of flypaper strips, unsightly as...they are, would be way preferable to being constantly pestered while trying to enjoy our meal! They are not sanitary! Better yet, the back patio needs to be screened in, as well as the windows and front door! Flies in the food is NOT acceptable!More
Had a fabulous breakfast. Possibly the best pancakes I have ever eaten. Omelette was outstanding. My wife had the vegetable tacos and they were great. There was a small mixup on her order, not a big deal at all, and they fixed it and then...they ended up comping the entire breakfast!! I told him they did not have to do that but they insisted. we will definitely be back for sure.More
Visiting Solano Beach from The east coast recently. Checked this place out for breakfast. Even though it was busy we were quickly seated. First time I had the most amazing delicious stuffed French toast with berries and ricotta. Almost licked the plate. It was so...good we went back again. Second time had the quinoa bowl with poached eggs for something different. It was so so good. Tried the biscuits and gravy. Delicious. Service is good. Ambience is perfect. Go there.More
This is a popular lunch place only. They have more tables outside in the back in a pleasant patio space. It is standard sandwich and salad fare as you would expect, but also has breakfast dishes as well making it good for a weekend brunch....They do have a full bar (for a Bloody Mary) which is unusual for many typical lunch establishments. The food is very good. The service is always friendly and attentive. I have never had a bad experience with the latter. There is a takeout bakery and coffee shop next door where we have purchased good croissants in the past. We will be repeat customers.More
I’ve been coming to Solana Beach for about eight years and kept hearing about Claires. I was just never able to stop for a meal. My friend and I were out walking and decided to stop for lunch. My sandwich and salad were fresh. Our...server was very pleasant and we had a very nice time on the back patio. I wish Claire’s would be open for dinner.More
