★★★★★ 5.0 Saint · Dec 2025

Highly recommend coming here! The ambiance, service, and food were all top-notch. I loved the cast-iron cornbread appetizer, as well as the Caesar salad to start. For entrées, my partner and I enjoyed the short rib and skirt steak—both were cooked to perfection and packed with flavor. The balance of flavors was clearly well thought out and really came through in each dish. We didn’t try the mocktails since we took advantage of the BYOB policy, but overall this was a fantastic experience. I highly recommend it and would love to come back again.

We enjoyed our 1st visit to St Clair. Nice to see both the Exec chef and sous chef are women. The corn bread is a must- sweet and salty served in a hot skillet. Ceasar salad was ok- polenta croutons nice touch. Short rib was amazing. NY strip was nicely done- served with a green chile sauce- nice touch. I must call out the bus staff. I dropped my napkin from my lap and a bus person saw and quickly replaced- nice observant service. (it’s BYOB- Amanti Vino wine store right next store- a great place with excellent selections and helpful staff.)!

Came here for a moms night out and it did not disappoint! We had a reservation and were taken to our table right away. Hosts were friendly and welcoming. Our server was amazing and the food was great. My steak was cooked perfectly. Loved the decor as well because, let’s face it, anywhere that recognizes Leo DiCaprio’s Romeo and Juliet knows what the millennials want to see.

Had brunch here for the first time on New Year’s Eve and was not disappointed! Tried the $32 prix fixe lunch (soup or salad plus main entree). Started with the Saint Claire salad with honey vinegrette which has refreshingly good and paired with the Crispy Fish Tacos which was surprisingly quite filling. My wife also had the same salad paired with the Faroe Island Salmon with honeyed carrots over farro which was delish! Ended it with a heavenly tasting honey-crusted apple with vanilla ice cream on top. Saint Clair is BYOB so we brought a bottle of prosecco and they provided a carafe of OJ for our mimosas! Shout out to our server Ashley who helped us with our choices and took great care is us throughout our dining! Highly recommend!

Came to Montclair to try this trendy spot. Made a resy for 2 for lunch without any problems. Ample parking at the Crescent garage a block away. Arrived on time promptly seated Indoor dining room. We started with a few cocktails which were refreshing - Sporty Morty Spagliato and Full Monty Clair Mule. Apps - cast Iron Cornbread and Lump Crab Salads are a must. Duck Fat Tater Tots looked great but could have used a little more flavor for my taste. Delicious nonetheless. Mains - Dry Aged Beef Burger was excellent and Crispy Fish Tacos were also nice. Finished with dessert if Devils Food Cake which was wonderful and not overly sweet. Overall great lunch, not to crowded on a week day. Special props to our server Christina for taking excellent care of us and making sure we had everything we nee
