In a microservices project where service A calls services B, C, and D to respond to a request, should each service have its own declarative HTTP client, i.e., a FeignClient interface? Is this the better approach or an alternative such as RestClient should be used?

It's really up to you, Feign is pretty nice as is removes a lot of boilerplate and the interfaces it creates make it really developer friendly.
Using the RestClient gives you more control
It really depends on what you're looking for and what problems you might have that one or the other might not be able to solve.
You could use both too
I'd recommend Feign though personally
