The Quarter Creole Cuisine - Claremont, California

Great service, amazingly delicious food, and flavorful (and strong to boot) cocktails! Our party was super happy w/ our overall dining experience here (and we’ve been to NOLA!). Definitely a favorite now for genuine creole cuisine in the area! 🤤

The food was delicious, much like what you'd find in New Orleans. The service was excellent as well. I would recommend this place to everyone.

Food is good. It is rich and has a healthy dose of cream and butter. I would say it’s close to Creole cuisine as it can be having been to many restaurants in New Orleans, LA.

Service and atmosphere are both great!

I have been here three times now and the only critic I would have is it would be nice to have a menu change —or a weekend special.

Main dishes are a healthy portion! Desserts are also decent portion again rich, buttery and delicious!

It was recommended to my wife and I to come here on a Tuesday night due to live music. We took our friends and when we walked in, we didn’t realize how live the music was. A band named Gumbo Child was there and they were amazing. You couldn’t hear the person in front of you but it was definitely a vibe. People were dancing the entire time and really into it which made for a really fun experience. My buddy, who has been to New Orleans, said this was very similar to the food he experienced there. Started off with a Lost on Bourbon St. cocktail which was delicious. Similar to an Old Fashioned. We got the Seafood File Gumbo appetizer. I loved it except for the oysters but that’s just me being picky. The Shrimp & Grits was phenomenal - would definitely get it again. And the Quarter Catfish was really good. It didn’t taste too fishy, which was amazing and kind of odd, right? Really light and tasty though next time I would try the Catfish St. Charles.

The desserts were really, really good. The beignets are incredible. I’m not a big bread pudding guy but it was good - the rest of the group thoroughly enjoyed it. The service was really good, especially with the noise level. Very patient with us as it was our first time there. And the decor was awesome (I attached one picture just so you can get a sense of what it’s like). Would definitely recommend this to anyone. It’s fun, it’s excellent food, and great service.

The food was great, and the service started off strong. We arrived when they opened, and our waiter was very attentive. However, about 30 minutes later, a large party of ten was seated in our section, which slowed down the timing of our food delivery. It became a struggle to get our waiter's attention to order dessert and had to wait an additional 20 minutes for the check.

Despite this, everything we ordered was delicious. The St. Charles catfish was fresh and well-seasoned. The oyster appetizers were delicious. I usually don't care for fried oysters, but these were done well. The crawfish biscuit and beignets were amazing, though the bread pudding was overpowered by the bourbon—a bit of a heavy pour. We will definitely return and hope the service matches the quality of the food.

YES CHEF! Exquisite is an Understatement 🤌🏾✨

The Quarter does what so many other creole restaurants attempt to do. The execution of each dish is done in such a way that you will not only measure every creole dining experience to The Quarter, but you will measure every dining out experience to them.

• The preparation and presentation of each dish is done masterfully.
• The Flavors!!…the flavors of every dish will give you pause to savor the depth in each bite.
• The Drinks are also held to the same standard as the exquisite cuisine.

I have been here on multiple occasions and the staff was accommodating, the experience was incredible and the food is always a cut above the rest. I have tasted nearly everything on the menu. Here are my suggestions:

Popcorn Shrimp
Frog Legs
Red Beans and Rice with Sausage or Fried Catfish
Seafood Filé Gumbo Bowl
Hangar Steak w/ Jumbo Shrimp
Garlic Salmon
Fried Catfish
Sautéed Quarter Catfish
Bread Pudding w/ bourbon sauce(Get this!!)
Beignets

**Lighting could be better in the evenings over each table. It can be very dark in the restaurant

Came here a a belated birthday celebration. So we ordered the foi gras, crawfish étoufee and the catfish fish all the fixings. The foi gras was good but the bread that was served wasn’t crunchy but rather a bit soft. The étoufee was a little thick and not too much crawfish meat in it. The catfish plate was the winner of the three. Combination of grilled catfish served over rice, grilled veggie with clumps of real crabmeat and top it of with the thick sauce and a large shrimp. To top it off we ordered the bread pumping with the buttery bourbon sauce and it was scrumptious. The wait staff was excellent. The place give you a hint of what N’awlins folks would experience.

Thank you Quarter Creole for the experience. The food was amazing and the service was top tier. Our server Daniel was on top of refills and questions. Thank you for your dedication and working on your birthday. You represent the restaurant very well.
