We had a reservation for a birthday brunch on their patio, and it was truly beautiful. The photos online don't do it justice at all. The space is fully covered, so you can enjoy being outside without the sun hitting you, perfect vibe. A few people in our group ordered sangrias and other drinks, and everything was great. But the real standout was the Peruvian ceviche such a hidden gem. Super fresh, flavorful, and honestly one of the best dishes we had. Our server was attentive and really helpful, and the food came out quickly, which we appreciated. I just wish I had taken pictures of everything because it looked as good as it tasted. Definitely coming back. read more

Ambiance: 6 / 10 There's indoor tables around the bar as well as giant headboard booths for a more private feel and they have a large covered patio with great community views for those desiring to dine al fresco. A little older on style but quaint. Im sure at night with fire-pit nearby and giant lamps on, wonderful & cozy Service: 8 / 10 Attentive, checked on us, offered suggestions that worked out. Surprised us with birthday cakes!! ( Mother in-laws & mine) Food: Duck Tacos - 8 / 10 Surprisingly great flavor and would order again for quick bite if I came back Tuna Tartare - 5 / 10 Happy they chose to pair with wonton chips, but the sauce and the flavor altogether just missed the mark. Shocked to say that Lime & Salt & even Yard House blew this app out of the water. Manila Clam Chowder: 7 / 10 Chunky, creamy, but too Salty. They added bacon not chopped up in the chowder, but instead thrown on top as if it fell onto the bowl on it's way out of the kitchen prep (see pic) Calamari: 7 / 10 Basic breading and could have been better if sauces paired were complimentary but they were not. They offered 1 sauce that just tasted like a watered down Zested shallot, the other I think is like a thinned out marinara. Both did not enhance the app, but actually made it less appetizing. Fresh Pappardelle w/Chicken: 5 / 10 Great portion of protein to pasta, but heavily lacked flavor. I've had pasta with no sauce, just simple olive oil, but this dish...not like those. Unfortunately, tasted bland. Wild Alaskan Salmon: 8 / 10 It was crispy but not sure if that was what they were going for or it was a tad overcooked. But the flavor was great, quinoa pairing worked. I get the need for colorful presentation too, but they could have gone w/less tomatoes and instead more of the mangos & perhaps added cucumbers for a more fresh & colorful approach Chilean Seabass: 7 / 10 Description was "Pepper crusted..saffron Asparagus Risotto...Orange Glaze w\Vanilla Bean cream sauce" First bite was like a basic white fish. 4 bites later, then I finally tasted a hint of pepper crust (not all over as I hoped because it enhanced the flavor so much!) The Asparagus risotto base was a huge disappointment--I would have enjoyed this fish more with roasted veggies, because I was hyped up to experience an 'Orange glaze w/Vanilla bean cream sauce " in the risotto, but instead tasted like bland porridge with 2 bits of asparagus chunks that I think they could have left out. It was a shame, I also did not taste any orange glaze anything. *For such a high price point on these main entrees and salads-- I had expectations for their dishes to be refined & elevated. This would work best at a $22/plate experience not the $50+ range they are charging. read more

Service and Ambience: 5/5 stars - our waiter was kind and on top of it. Nice patio and bar, too. Food: 3/5: The lunch special (salmon and salad) came with old, rotting lettuce mixed in with fresher produce. Come on. $30 for a salad and this is the type of produce you're serving? The fish tacos were underdressed, and the mac and cheese is like boxed macaroni with cubed ham you find in packages at the grocery store. Meh all around. Was expecting a lot more from this place. And a note to the manager: it would be nice of him to check in with the average customer rather than only go schmooze with the people that look like they have money. You offering them a drink on the house so they can leave you a good review is a cheap move. Don't forget the regular people are your customers, too. read more

Bardot - My Great Dane, January...wanting those duck tacos! So good. - New American Near Me - Claremont, California

I love all the eateries in Claremont but Bardot is one of the favorites. Super cute patio dining area for dining al fresco or a more intimate dining indoors. Our brunch was data stick and Emilio our server was friendly, attentive and gave great service! Perfect spot for a girls day, date night or group gathering. Must try the Oscar Benedict! Superb! read more

My friend said this was the best meal he's had in a long time! The lamb was perfectly cooked and well-seasoned! My friend said the min jelly was good, and the mashed potatoes were buttery! I had the portobello sandwich, which was so fresh! The burrata was amazing! We both thought the truffle fries were too subtle and the garlic aioli didn't have much flavor, but at least they were crispy and not oily! Service was wonderful :) We had chosen to have the first-available table and were informed we would be seated at a high-top, but they actually upgraded us to a nice outdoor table with a great view! Our waiter was helpful with recommendations for how to cook the lamb, and said he would choose the slightly more rare option so they could cook it more according to our tastes (it ended up being perfect!) A server came to refill our waters right before we needed! Wait time on a Saturday night at 6pm was about 30-45 minutes, which wasn't too bad! read more

Went here for a birthday. Surprisingly enough you can get happy hour from wherever you sit. And each week night has a special theme. We happened to be there on taco Tuesday. I didn't grab many photos since this was an event and not so much a dinner exploration. Our service was phenomenal and I would go back for that alone. Drinks were great and I only grabbed half our parties entrees. I also had a bowl of clam chowder which was thinner than expected but very good none the less. read more

I ate at Bardot years ago, and had a good experience. We returned to have a little afternoon bite to eat and a round of drinks. Bardot is located in downtown Claremont, right on a corner. We were able to easily find a parking spot on the street right around the corner. Parking can be more of a challenge during prime time. They have a real nice covered outdoor patio, two different dining areas inside, and seating at the bar. We were greeted by a very friendly host who seated us immediately in a booth per our request. It was a nice surprise to see that they still have a special Christmas cocktail menu in effect. I had the Rhub The Right Way (Vanilla Cream Cheese Vodka, Rhubarb Liqueur, Cinnamon Vanilla Syrup, Strawberry, Lemon, Egg White, Graham Cracker Rim, $18). The vanilla and strawberry flavors stood out to me with some creaminess. It has a nice level of sweetness ,and it definitely drinks more like a regular cocktail, than a desert drink. The bartender stopped by to see if I liked it since it was his creation. I definitely enjoyed it. She had the Under The Mistletoe (St. George Spiced Pear Liqueur, Vanilla, Cinnamon Syrup, Champagne, Soda Water, Glitter, Cranberries, Rosemary, $18). This was light and refreshing, and not overly bubbly. The champagne, pear, and cinnamon flavors were noticeable. The Goat Cheese Lollipops ($14) definitely caught our eye on the appetizer menu. The plate comes with four panko crusted lollypops on a bed of honey and roasted almonds. The goat cheese has a nice tang, and the sweetness of the honey pairs with it perfectly. The panko crust and almonds give a nice little crunch. We also had the Crab Cakes ($24). The crab cakes were good. We added a little salt on top which made them a little better. They come with a pretty good sized serving of coleslaw on top for some freshness. Our server, Roger, was very friendly and provided good service. We told him we were just hanging out enjoying the afternoon and in no rush, and he checked in on us just the right amount. read more

Been coming here for years... These days im a sit at the bar and get a Paloma made. Bartenders are always very cool and full of conversation if it permits. They read the room well. Scallops were cooked perfectly, flavors are almost required and fresh. Usually other places will take a rich tasting approach and I always love how they have balanced this with their particular style of scallops. All in all it's still a great go to place in the area. read more

Today was Mothers Day. This is one of my favorite restaurants and the experience today was mid at best. The food took an extremely long time. The table next to use ordered the same time as us, they received their food and were almost finished before our waitress came over and jokingly said oh you ate all your food already. Once she checked said the fries is what made the order delayed. When I received my order the fries were incorrect and the server grab the fries off my plate and walked away. Our server checked on us one time through out our meal, the check was not brought to use until we had to ask someone for it. There was an employee in the restroom while my mother when in and was taking up the entire sink area. I understand it's Mother's Day, it was also my birthday and it was disappointing. If I wouldn't have had previous positive experience I would be be coming back. read more

Bardot - Chicken club. It was thrown together, fell apart and was more tomato then anything else - New American Near Me - Claremont, California

This is one of my bestie's favorite, local spots, and is quickly becoming one of mine. Service is always excellent and the food and drinks always hit. We usually enjoy a few of the appetizers and maybe an entree between the two of us... and of course a few cocktails or mimosas. Those fried goat cheese lollipops with the slivered almonds and honey is something I think about fondly. Thank you to the management team, and most importantly the chefs, line cooks, servers and bartenders for maintaining such a wonderful restaurant!! read more

I love this place! Their food is high quality, the environment and ambiance is outstanding, the prices are very fair for a fine dining experience. I enjoyed the New York steak and my fiancé enjoyed the filet. Both were cooked to perfection- medium rare is how we like it. Our waitress was super friendly, fun and made us laugh. We enjoyed the heating lamps outside because it was a chilly night and they created the perfect temperature for us to enjoy the meal and also be outside. Definitely can't wait to come back again! read more

Beautiful brunch views of downtown Claremont, the restaurant is cutely designed and situated on the corner offering nice patio brunch seating. I love sitting here in the patio enjoying my favorite eggs Benedict. They perfectly pouched the egg, crisped the bacon (I replaced instead of Canadian ham) and the egg muffin perfectly light and toasted. The breakfast potato's could use a longer cook on them. The Gouda burger juicy, flavored, with cheese and truffle fries. Tried the crème brûlée waffle which was large and needed help sharing all our dishes with friends. Waited a bit for the hostess, but once she came out no wait on eating outside on patio. Ate here twice and will definitely return for the 3rd time. read more

Finally stopped in after coming to Claremont for many years. There was already a line before opening but bar seating was open. Cute restaurant with a great vibe. Nice outdoor seating area. Mega-mimosa and truffle fries were my choice today. Drink was perfect and fries were crispy and perfectly cooked. Staff were friendly and patrons at the bar made the experience a lot of fun. Looking forward to trying other menu items on my next visit read more

Came here originally for brunch but didn't realize that was only for Saturdays and Sundays. Wish they had a mini special brunch menu for the weekdays as well! There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating to choose from. You will need to make reservations for their booths however since those seem to all be claimed in advance. I ended up trying one of the drinks on the holiday menu instead and honestly I should have ordered a second one! I tried the "Rhub The Right Way" drink (alcoholic) which is a vanilla cream cheese vodka, rhubarb liqueur, cinnamon vanilla syrup, strawberry, lemon, egg white, graham cracker rim! I look forward to going back and trying more off this limited menu. read more

We had a reservation here for our anniversary. Abe as our server. We enjoyed the baked brie appetizer and hubby got the burger and I got the vegan gluten free pasta. I am not gluten-free or vegan, but the vegetables in the dish were really catching my eye. We ordered a side of grilled asparagus. The baked brie was really good, It was a little loaf and it had like crispy light flaky dough wrapped around it then baked, totally delicious ...I've never done that before. Also, it came with a delicious salad that was tossed with balsamic vinaigrette , and it had diced fuji apples. We got the flourless chocolate cake and it was yummy, light and fluffy. I ordered a glass of the cabernet (I forget the name) it was nice, our server recommended it. I ordered a coffee at the end and the coffee was lukewarm... :( but everything else was really delicious. I liked the ambiance and the staff was nice and the vibe was very mellow and it was busy but not so bad it was stressful. For a Wednesday evening it was busier than I anticipated but still it was a really nice dinner. I loved the booths with the high backs. And candle light. Very cute place in the charming down town Claremont. We will back. Thank you! read more

We went for lunch and when I got there the hostess had a bad attitude. She told me two hrs then looked at me and changed her mind and said 3 hrs. I feel like she judged me and decided she didn't want us there. I will not be going to this establishment again! read more

I love this place as well as their other restaurants. We went fir brunch on sunday and I decided to try something different. I ordered the steak and eggs. This was a big mistake and I wont make it again. The steak was tough and too grizzly. The potatoes were not hot. Eggs were good. French toast was good. But 35$ for a cheap cut of steak isnt worth it. Service was good. You cannot beat the ambiance. I will continue to eat here but wont order the steak and eggs again. read more

Bardot is located right in the heart of downtown Claremont, and it definitely nails the ambiance. The space feels nice and cozy--great for a relaxed meal or casual night out. The service was amazing as well: attentive, friendly, and consistent throughout our visit. We ordered the truffle fries, tomato bisque, goat cheese lollipops, the portobello sandwich, and a gluten-free pasta with veggies. While everything looked good, the food overall was lacking in flavor. Nothing stood out or delivered a real "wow" factor, especially considering the price point. We actually had food left over that we didn't even bother taking home, which kind of says it all. Overall, Bardot is a solid spot for ambiance and service in downtown Claremont, but the food didn't quite live up to expectations for the cost. read more

I've heard such good things about Bardot and was so excited to finally check this restaurant out on my birthday this year! Bardot has indoor seating as well as a nice indoor patio. The patio was full when we went so were seated indoors upon our arrival. Our server greeted us right away and was very attentive! We ordered the truffle and Parmesan fries as an appetizer and also split the French onion soup. Both were delicious! I loved the truffle aioli the fries came with, and the French onion soup was one of the best I've had. For my entree I ordered the Gorgonzola burger which was so good and had many different flavors. My husband ordered the chicken chipotle sandwich and said it was incredible. It was also whisky Wednesday when we went so there were specials on the whisky drinks! I would definitely recommend Bardot for a special occasion or even just a date night out! read more

I've been here several times and it's always been good experience. We moved to the area about three years ago and Bardot quickly became one of our favorite spots. It's really become my go-to bunch spot, but it's great for lunch or dinner. I love coming here on a Sunday afternoon with friends. They have great options that can really please even the pickiest eaters. We've come here with large groups and everyone always finds something they like on the menu. My go-to that I almost always crave is their ceviche--it's fantastic. I could eat it by itself as an entree. If I'm feeling like brekky, I go for the eggs Benedict and a burger if I feel like lunch, if I'm in between, I go for the croque madame. If you're in the mood for some adult-beverages, there are a ton of fun, creative options. Service is usually pretty good, but this is also a great spot to enjoy with friends. They have a nice atmosphere outside and it's great on a Sunday afternoon after the Farmer's Market. Definitely stop by if you're in the area. read more

Had this on the bookmarks for a bit. Finally came in to try it out. Service and staff were great. Had a protein style que paso burger with grilled Anaheim chili, sunny side up egg and gorgonzola burger with melty gruyère, arugula, a nice toasty bun and side of fries. Quite tasty. Great spot when strolling along the downtown area. Limited street parking available or parking lots nearby within walking distance. read more

Nice outdoor patio style dining with nice ambiance and service. The food is good, small portions.

On any Sunday morning, the farmer's market can be found along the street next to Bardot. This is a college town atmosphere and has a great food selection both indoors and outdoors. The food was prepared fresh and hot and service was excellent. I had the kitchen sink burrito, which was everything you could find in a breakfast burrito. The wife had a beautifully made waffle with a brulee sauce and fruit decorating the quasi breakfast/dessert item. When in Claremont, I'll certainly come back! read more

If you're craving one, COME HERE! they do not disappoint. I'll definitely be back for this treat, good ambience, not too rowdy but just loud enough to unwind and have drinks w your friends. We didn't try the food, so for that I'll give it 4 stars. But I'll be back. read more

I use to frequent Bardot back in the day but had not been back in a while. Last week was my mother's birthday and we decided to go here for brunch since it has a nice outside patio. Not sure what has changed but we did wait about 15 minutes before someone came to take our drink orders. When we finally placed our orders it took quite sometime for our food to arrive and when it did it was not our order. No problem they took the food back and we waited for the correct order to come. The food itself is delicious no complaints on the food. I proceeded to order a ginger ale when the food arrived and did not receive it until we were ready to get the check. As I mentioned before, I use to frequent this place because the service was spot on and the food and location is great but it seems the service has took a bit of a dive. I'll be back to give it another try I hope it was just an off day. read more

It's in Claremont where a lot of restaurants and stores are so parking may be a bit difficult. We had a bit of trouble looking for parking. We got seated pretty quickly which was nice. They had a live band playing while we were enjoying the night. It was a wonderful night and such a great place for drinks and food. read more

We have gone here a few times now & enjoyed it every time! The 2-3 times now, the staff already recognizes us and have sat my bf when I was shopping knowing he was with me!! We've enjoyed their brunch menu, dinner menu & regular changing seasonal specials. The staff is SO attentive!! We have sat and they've gotten us & the two dogs all individual waters, constant refills & plate changes, etc. Brunch- the ceviche was incredible, grilled pears came with a fully dressed plate of arugula and prosciutto (was more than we expected). We've enjoyed the eggs Benedict as well! Dinner- EVERYTHING was great but we definitely were blown away with the goat cheese lollipops as such an unexpected flavor. Sometimes you will be added to a text waitlist & every single time they have beat the time they're quoted me & it is absolutely worth the wait. Trust me- the staff is working hard to get you seated and get your food to you quick. Do not skip this spot! read more
