About

Once upon a time, two friends were having a week and indulged their curiosity on the west bank in New Orleans. Yearning for a slice of country in the city, they discovered 1300 Richland Road and the idea of Saint Claire was born. Drawn to the banks of the Mississippi River and the property's majestic live oaks, the two purchased the property in December 2024 and opened their doors a swift six months later on June 26, 2025. 

Cassi Dymond and Melissa M. Martin together have over forty years of experience in special events and restaurants. They've brought together a dedicated team of hospitality professionals and are thrilled to invite you to their piece of heaven. 

Saint Claire is a full service restaurant and bar located on the west bank of the Mississippi River in New Orleans, Louisiana. Nestled under an old oak grove that ensures a magical and inclusive space for events of all kinds, Saint Claire wants its guests to lose themselves for a moment in what seems to be an impossible property in the city.

Come have a drink on the porch, in the courtyard, or on the expansive grounds. Come and dine at the restaurant with a revolving menu of our favorite foods. And come and celebrate special occasions of all kinds at Saint Claire. We want you to see her as a refuge in a city that we love.
