Ida Claire
This quirky Addison gem serves up Southern classics with a twist -- that goes for the food and drinks. Ida Claire, which has a retro, down-home theme, is dishing out plates like sweet potato chip duck confit (made with goat cheese fondue), remoulade crispy catfish, crawfish corn beignets, and a Southern tasting board: house-cured meats, low country ham, pimento cheese, smoked mustard, jam, and Ida's biscuits. The knowledgeable staff will help you pair whatever meal you choose with the proper cocktail, whether it's a modern gimlet, Collins, or G&T.

Comfort foods galore await at this Addison staple bursting at the seams with southern hospitality and whimsical charm. It should go without saying, but opt for Ida’s Biscuits and drench them in bacon gravy or housemade jam to stop the tummy rumbles before moving on down the list. Chicken Fried Ribeye with sunny side eggs, Fried Green Tomato Benedict, and Chicken and Waffle platters will satisfy your weekly allowance of deep-fried goodness while providing a solid base for enjoying a trio of large-format cocktails: Hurricane, Strawberry Fields, and Blueberry Mule.
