The service was okay, it took a while for our server to ask us what we wanted or to get us our waters, but we didn't mind. The food was pretty yummy! The red oil dumplings were delish but dense (they definitely do not skimp out on the meat in there) and the sauce was delish! The miso ramen was a tad salty but it could be gotten through. The Mala stir fry was yum but it needed a kick. Overall, we did enjoy ourselves and will likely be back!

Not sure if their soup was just undercooked or what happened there. They do have yummy drinks like boba and such. Usually pretty fast at getting food to us as well.

I swear that's why I've always loved tofu! And I'm mostly vegan now the past 28 years, and my mother the past 12. This place is a staple in New Haven and testament to their good food for staying open all these years. When Claire's first opened vegetarian restaurants weren't a thing, and over the years the menu has shifted.. but it's always good. For me it's home cooking style, comfort food.. they have their own style. This place was around before everyone was freaking out about carbs.. thank god! I never leave without a cookie and a muffin for later.. they're the best! I recently got hooked on the Sunbuttter cookie, and also enjoy the Lithuanian coffee cake muffin. Soups and salads come with the classic Claire mini loaf! A delicious buttery(is it vegan? don't know) mini loaf of bread, just as tasty as I remember it from my childhood. Their oat milk Matcha Lattes are creamy and they don't slack on the matcha. The service is always friendly and helpful. The menu accommodates vegetarians, vegans, and gluten free options as well. enjoy!

I have no clue how they can afford to add this much bacon to each sandwich. I'm a person for whom a city is made or broken by their breakfast sandwich game, and if Olmo left New Haven I would probably have to move. Keep going here so they can keep putting insane amounts of bacon on each sandwich. The cinnamon raisin cream cheese is also wild.

Tip: Order online from your phone a few minutes before you walk in. Then mention your order to the first person you see - they'll use their handheld to immediately start your order. Otherwise it will get done and put on a shelf to grab. If you order in person, they'll come outside and call your name and hand you your order. Also, I've always found that if I want a table, one always opens up when I'm ready to sit. If you want one, you will get one - just the endless circle of life, dude There are also a few tables around the corner on Whitney. Great place.

The meat was frozen and defrosted, the broths tasted like water, and it was pretty expensive for the quality you get. The broths looked very flavorful, but it truly tasted like water... No amount of sauce was able to save it. You also can't even make your own sauce, they come to your table with a sauce cart and make it for you... The service was meh as well. Overall very disappointing.

I came here with reservations and still had to wait which wasn't a huge deal. However once we were seated, it took an additional 20 min for the waiter to come greet us and take our orders. When he came back with our dishes they were haphazardly placed on the table without any utensils. It took 3 attempts of asking to finally obtain said utensils. The food is EXCELLENT and the manager- Rippon was very nice and helpful and listened to our feedback, so that was appreciated.

The place had a really nice and chill vibe, really nice decor and a great spot for a somewhat nice lunch. They were serving their lunch menu and I ended up getting the mussels pad Thai, and a chicken curry puff appetizer and a Thai tea. The Thai tea was solid, and the chicken curry puffs were very good. But the stand out was the pad Thai. I've never had a creamy pad Thai and this was amazing. So flavorful. I didn't know what to expect with the mussels but I loved the mussels in the shell and it added a great flavor to the dish! I will definitely be coming back again to order this, and try some of their other items!
