Best Quality Daughter houses a vibrant, chic décor and new, unique Asian-American menu. In 2018, chef Jennifer Hwa Dobbertin, wanting to address the sparsity of Asian-American female chefs in South Texas, developed a new concept through a series of pop-up dinners called Best Quality Daughter with fellow chef Anne Ng and artist Jennifer Ling Datchuk. Today Best Quality Daughter is located in the historic Mueller House at the Pearl Brewery. Curated by chef Jennifer Hwa Dobbertin, Best Quality Daughter's menu takes inspiration from her travels and the comfort food of her youth as a second-generation Chinese-American.

Ida Claire is a funky, southern influenced restaurant & bar open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The food is notched up southern but has influences from different regions. You’ll most likely see dishes you’ve heard of before but with little twists here and there. Our sandwiches will be served on biscuits & we’ll have chicken & waffles on every menu. Brunch is obviously southern & will be a big part of what we do. The drinks are takes on classics like the Mint Julep but revved up & including a lot of house made ingredients.

    Went for Valentine’s Day, not crowded at all the service was great, food was good,drinks were strong🙂 but small and the value was great for a complete date night. Place is underrated and the crew was attentive and friendly. Only downside is that the entire menu online wasn’t available because of the fixed items available for Valentine’s Day’s night, would definitely go back to try the dishes we were looking forward to tasting!

    The food is always excellent (highly recommend the "famous" green beans and the Don Po pork belly) and comes out SO quickly. Recommend a reservation to speed up wait time, but definitely worth the wait!

    The meatloaf was deliciously mouthwatering, paired with the perfect sides (whipped potatoes and charred broccolini! My husband had chicken fried steak. Fried to perfection with gravy and also very good. He had the same sides as l did. To top it off with deserts..Pecan pie with scoop vanilla ice cream and Chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream. Scrumptiously delicious. They don’t hold back on the portions. Will definitely go back!

    In terms of brunch food, but the price was fairly reasonable.  It was easy to get in and out of the hotel and the Saint Anthony is a beautiful, downtown, historic San Antonio Hotel. My only complaint is that it was a bit noisy, and the server didn’t even refill our glass of water. I’d go back for the ambience and it’s in walking distance of the Majestic. So it’s a great choice before show.
