Had an amazing meal at Chandlers. The food was spectacular, music was amazing, and the service impeccable. Garrett did a fantastic job, and timed the meal perfectly. Thank you Chandlers for a wonderful dining experience. Also it’s really nice when you have a reservation and they take you right back.

An exceptional meal! Service was superb. The only reason I gave it a 4 for atmosphere was that we had to eat at the bar at a high top table (not their fault, already fully booked due to no availability). It has been a loooong while since I’ve had a great abalone and theirs was super delicious and fresh! A SURPRISE was the Wagyu steak produced in Idaho! Supremely delicious and amazingly well marbled. True Wagyu! From Idaho???? 😊 This is a definite revisit if I ever come to Boise again. A very well stocked wine list/cellar. Very accommodating for dietary restrictions (reasonable).

Great spot in Boise for special occasions. The smoked ribeye is the best steak my wife has ever eaten. The A5 wagyu was worth every penny. The cocktails and mocktails are delicious. The staff is super friendly and attentive. I can't recommend this place enough for an anniversary or birthday to make it a memorable experience.

My wife and I had a wonderful experience with the steak menu on a previous visit, so I decided to bring my mom for a special treat. While the service and atmosphere remained excellent, the food quality this time was disappointing. We ordered the bouillabaisse, duck two ways, sautéed fresh morel mushrooms, and gratin potatoes. The gratin potatoes were well-prepared, with a crunchy golden crust and a rich, buttery interior. The duck two ways was also nicely executed—the confit leg had crispy skin and flavorful meat, complementing the tender breast cooked to a perfect medium. The wine reduction and cabbage slaw added a pleasant touch of sweetness and tang. Unfortunately, the morel mushrooms were overly salted, which masked their natural flavor. The biggest letdown, however, was the bouillabaisse. From the first taste, the broth had an off-putting, almost sour smell. We quickly discovered that two of the mussels were spoiled and had to spit them out. When we informed the manager, she mentioned the mussels had been delivered the day before and that “this batch may have a stronger taste.” This explanation was not reassuring, as the mussels were clearly bad. Still, we chose not to escalate the issue and politely said we couldn’t finish the dish. To their credit, the bouillabaisse was removed from our bill. Unfortunately, I experienced a severe bout of diarrhea that night, followed by a rash that lasted nearly a week. In my opinion, Chandlers excels with its steak offerings, but seafood and mushroom dishes seem to be more hit or miss. I also wish the management had handled the situation with more professionalism and concern.

Nick is the man! Go see my man Nick! He's a wonderful waiter and super personable. An expert at his craft. Ask for Nick because he will take great care of you. Also... the food rocks! The lobster bisque soup is wonderful! Crab cakes are mostly meat rather than mostly bread. The Ahi tuna kicks butt! The shrimp scampi pasta is wild delicious!!! The veal is Devine! The deserts... amazing! Go here... now! Worth the $$$. A total experience that you will remember for years to come.

I've been to Chandlers multiple times but tonight was rough. The cut of steak we had was hard to finish mostly fat and the temp was uneven. Rare on one end medium well on the other. The dessert coffee and potatoes outshined the steak. Anymore I feel there's a lot better options for Steak in the valley.

Not often do I rate a restaurant a 5 star but Chandlers completely deserves it. My family and I dined there for my birthday celebration and it didn't disappoint. If you like to sit in a booth be sure and make a reservation and request one. The service was outstanding, and the food was incredible, delicious, cooked just right and beautifully presented. It is by far the most expensive meal we have ever had, but also the best meal and an unforgettable evening. Thank you Chandlers!

This is one of just a few really good steak houses in the Boise area. They treat you like royalty and they are very professional. The price point is pretty much what you expect on an upscale place like Chandlers. I would prefer a larger cut of meat but my 6oz was alright and so very tender. They are only open for dinner during the week and not sure about the weekend hours.

A friend recommended we stop in at Chandlers while we were visiting Boise. We already made dinner reservations at another restaurant with friends so we stopped at Chandler's prior for an appetizer and a cocktail. It was just after 5:00pm and they just opened. We grabbed a seat at the bar which was perfect as we could see a 2 price band was setting up to play just off to the side. The restaurant was already busy with diners. I can't remember our bartenders name but she was excellent. Very efficient and professional. The young man who was the bar back was watchful and attentive as well. I would expect this from a high end steakhouse and they delivered. We first ordered cocktails, a gin & tonic and a dirty martini. The gin& tonic was delicious, served in a gin goblet. The dirty martini was served in a proper martini glass instead of a coup glass like so many places do these days. Thank you! A proper ice on the pond dirty martini filled to the rim! For appetizers we shared fries and a shrimp cocktail. The fries came out hot and crispy with 3 sauces. My husband said the shrimp cocktail was very good. We were lucky to enjoy their live band while sitting at the bar. I really enjoyed the vibe at Chandlers and will drop in for dinner next time we are in town.

Visiting my sister here in Idaho we had to come to Chandlers. We arrived a little early, so we waited in the bar for our table and there was a live band playing, which gave the bar a cool jazzy vibe. We were taken to our table and the ambience in the dining area was beautiful. I love a good ribeye and this one was exceptional with a light crust on the outside, which is high end for sure. Of course you pay the price for great food but you have to do it at least once in your life of course I've done it hundreds. What can I say? You only live once!

I think this has to be my favorite steakhouse in the US. They are very high-quality food and service standards. Not to mention they serve fresh Idaho potatoes, which are delicious. It's an elevated and elegant experience with very high-quality food. If you're in the Boise area and are looking for a nice meal, I would highly recommend.

It's really good food but for how expensive it is I don't think it is worth the money, service and Ambiance is great though just a little overpriced

Chandler's does elevated dining so well. From the atmosphere in the restaurant, to the gourmet food, they can do no wrong. There is no bad option on the menu, everything I've tasted has been divine. I got the Alaskan halibut with asparagus and mashed potatoes and it was delicious. Chandler's is the perfect place to celebrate a special occasion! The service we received was next level. They know how to do fine dining well!

I really wanted to like Chandler's but it didn't live up to my expectations. Please do not get me wrong, the food was good, just a little less than the mark I believe they should be at. I ordered the carpaccio as a starter. Carpaccio is thinly sliced raw beef usually lightly seasoned with olive oil and some herbs. This is so you can taste the meat and the seasoning. The carpaccio at Chandler's was drizzles with a horseradish sauce and Dijon mustard. I could only taste the horseradish and Dijon. I really wanted to be able to taste the main component of the dish and it was lost. The smoked rib eye... I asked how it was smoked and if it could be cooked to medium rare. The waitress said it could. I asked about the a la Rossini as I do love a good reduction and foie gras is one of my favorite things. The steak was good, but not medium rare. It was light pink in the very middle... The reduction was a bit sweeter than I like and the consistency of the foie gras was undercooked and a bit slimy. Overall a bit underwhelming. The sides I had included the mac and cheese, potatoes au gratin, and the rosemary potatoes. All were good, but just good. The bread service included sour dough and a leaf bread with a tapenade and herbed butter. Overall, I enjoyed the experience. Though this level of restaurant should blow you away with what they offer, and this did not.

Chandler's is the OG in downtown Boise fine dining. Excellent food, immaculate service and a sexy atmosphere with live music. One of my all time favorite Boise restaurants!

Classy, nice interior with a nice bar. Live music that set a chill mood. Service is top-notch. Limo Salad was good. Excellent food all around. One of the specials tonight was the Wagyu sampler that had a 3.5 ounce cut of three different regions (Australian, Japanese, and American). Japanese won easily with American second and Australian in third. Came with Belgian french fries which were excellent! Halibut and filet were both delicious. A good steak should never need a sauce and this was the case here.

Very nice place. Been there many times and always good. Don't know if I will go back. Party if 8 last night and they charged me $120 to open 2 bottles of wine. Way out of line. Careful if you bring your own bottle

I was taken away of how nice the restaurant looked inside. It's simply decorated with a nice wine bar. The greeters were pleasant, warm and welcoming. The wait staff was unbelievable - they gave you the feeling that they wanted to work there and took pride of the restaurant. Very attentive, knowledgeable, patient and friendly. Coming from San Francisco and being a meat eater, I didn't think much. I felt nothing can compare to San Francisco's Steakhouses. Boy, was I wrong. The food was excellent - cooked to perfection to the way you like it. It was one of the best lamb chops I ever had and I had many. The lamb chops were not overwhelming - the spices brought out the taste of the meat without the lamb taste and after taste. It kind of melts in your mouth as you chew it. I highly recommend this if you eat lamb. The pork chops were amazing. It's one huge piece cut like a rib, about 3 inches high. It was nothing I had ever seen before. The lobster bisque soup came with a tiny glass of sherry that you pour into your soup. The summer salad looked fresh with no wilt leaves. The special fish of the day was excellent - nicely seasoned and cooked just right. Presentation of all dishes were excellent - color, layers/height, smell, arrangement, garnish and served temperature hot. The highlights were the soufflé and chocolate bomb. The chocolate bomb is like a mousse in a chocolate covering. The serve staff prepares it at the table. It's enough for at least 2-3 persons after a delightful dinner.

Chandlers did NOT disappoint! We wanted to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary somewhere special and I made reservations easily through the website. We had high hopes just from Yelp and word of mouth, but had no idea it was this caliber. We were greeted with a warm welcome from the get-go. Valet was friendly and courteous. Checking in was seamless, inviting and welcoming. The decor was classy and cool at the same time, with a moody yet warm dim lit feeling. We we early, so opted to hit up happy hour in the bar. The bartenders were prompt and attentive...ordered the cosmo and it was delicious. Nice touch to have potato chips as bar munchies. We were picked up at the bar by our host, who offered to take our drinks to the table (never had this level of service anywhere before!) with cheerful chatter on our way to be seated. We were quickly attended to by our attendant, then followed by our exquisite waiter, Daniel. Started off with the Huckleberry Lemon drop and a limousine salad with butter leaf lettuce, onion straws and Roquefort dressing. Both were exceptional. I had the corn fed 10 oz filet mignon and Gouda macaroni and cheese. Husband got the 16oz ribeye with truffled frites. Everything came out timely and at the perfect temperature. The steaks literally melted in our mouths, and though the trio of amazing steak sauces (bearnaise, chimichurri, cognac peppercorn) were magnificent, the steaks really didn't need them. The haricot verts and tomato provençal almost seemed unnecessary. Gouda mac was decadent and cheesy to the point of glutinous. Frites were crispy without being oily. If perfection was a meal, this would be it! Service was so wonderful. As a sweet touch, they knew it was our anniversary and we received a complimentary chocolate soufflé. I don't know how we had room, but we made it work. We had an Irish coffee as a dessert compliment. Soufflé was soft and hearty, with a decadent chocolate sauce and whipped cream. The Irish coffee had coffee brewed to order and though heavy, it was a nice cap to the night and dessert. I want to celebrate every day here!

We came here with some friends on a Friday night for some dinner. The service was wonderful and the food was delicious. My steak was dry-aged but it wasn't as nutty as I thought it would be. I ordered the cowboy cut 24 oz for $70 and it was a pretty big portion. It was bone-in and cooked to perfection. I had a taste of my husband's duck two ways and it was delectable and seasoned well. Our friends ordered the lobster and the Japanese A5 wagyu. The a moelle steak topper also wonderful. The ambiance is romantic and really nice. The service was excellent.

Bodie, our server, has done it again. We came back to Chandlers tonight for my mama's birthday and it couldn't have been better. The food was perfect. The music was perfect. Bodie was beyond perfect. He is such a pro, hilarious, FUN and everything in between. He even brought my mom his special desert that was OFF THE CHARTS. We are in the car on the way home as I write this and my mom just said, "Bodie is just the best. Devin is the best. That was the perfect night." I couldn't have said it better myself.

An overall fabulous evening at Chandler's starting with the valet parking and closing with a chocolate bomb dessert! Every food item was perfect, lobster bisque, crab cakes, side salad, grilled halibut, terrific! Our server Bodie was so great, answered our questions, and helped us make decisions on wine and menu items that suited us perfectly! We just couldn't figure out why Emily Stanton's mic couldn't be turned up enough for us to hear how clear and expressive her voice could be! Clearly she can sing and loves to do it, she shouldn't be held back because her microphone only has a low setting! Let her SING! Singing louder would just strain her voice and she shouldn't have to do that to be heard. Overall, we loved the food, service & ambiance and we hope to hear Emily sing next time. Table 37, Julia and Donna

Upon entering i was told there were no spaces available at the bat. Suddenly a more accommodating hostess announced that therr were indeed space. A seafood and steakhouse? The filet I asked for was medium rather than medium rare and couldn't be "charred because of our ovena" ?? Ryan and Datee bar staff were very gracious and helpful. Would not recommend the " wild mushroom soup. I asked for a Belle de Briellet stinger Not available. A beautiful hotel and restaurant but a 4 star want to be.

We recently dined at Chandler's in Boise, and it was an outstanding experience. Our server, Craig, a knowledgeable sommelier, was such a wonderful guy, really enjoyed our experience and we have mutual friend master sommelier Chuck Furuya, Craig and his team did such a great job so passionate what they do. This is more on me, nothing to do with the restaurant, but the way the seating is set up if you're looking for more of a musical vibe with live jazz, asked to get set somewhere out in the open area, not in the various wine rooms. on the other side if you're looking for more of a romantic dinner and the wine rooms are perfect. The food was extraordinary. We enjoyed a Wagyu steak, which was incredibly tender and flavorful, and a perfectly cooked Bone-In Short Rib. The sides were equally impressive. To top it off, we indulged in a Grand Marnier Chocolate Soufflé, which was the perfect ending to our meal--rich, sophisticated, and indulgent. Overall, Chandler's offers exceptional food and top-notch service, making it a must-visit steakhouse in Boise. Can't wait to come back... o

Let me start off by saying, I'm new to the area so simply searched "best steakhouse in Boise" and chandlers appeared so we walked in with that expectation in mind. Very pleasant staff, waitress was a delight and so friendly. The steakhouse has an heir of outdatedness with cutlery and decor which I haven't seen in a long time royal blue tinted drinking glasses reminiscent of decades in the past, along with lace doilies on the serving plates. Started with the bread and shrimp scampi, nothing memorable. Next came salads, beet salad was the best thing all night. Looking around at the patrons they all seemed to be enjoying themselves and loving their food which informs me that this place truly is top notch for the area - steak and halibut up next. Best thing about the filet was the chimichurri sauce but again, nothing memorable. Desert we took home, and wish I hadn't. Unless friends invite us out specifically here again, my money and time is better spent elsewhere.

My husband and I went there for date night as this is one of my favorite restaurants and once again we were not disappointed. My husband had the short ribs, and I had a ribeye steak that was cooked to perfection. It was medium, rare and unbelievably flavorful and was absolutely delicious. We also enjoyed a bottle of wine, which was an Italian Barbara that was delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone who loves delicious food with great service.

Incredible experience as usual, our server Jeff was top notch, sommelier was excellent, and as always the manager stopped by to see how things went. We had a variety of items, oysters and scallops stole the show. Music was great, ambiance was fitting, and pace of food coming out was perfect. Best in the city, and has been for years, keep up the great work Chandlers!!

Chandler's (scale of 1-5) I am a very tough grader. A 5 means the subject in question is among the best I ever had. A 4 means it is in the top 20% of similar items EVER. A 3 means it was good without any significant detractions. A 2 and it just wasn't worth it. A 1 means it's worth suing over.) so, for Chandler's in Boise, this was my experience: Gin & Tonic (Botanist Gin): 4 Halibut: 5 Scallops: 5 Sashimi (the dish was called the black orchid): 4 Flank steak: 4 Berry cobbler: 5 Service (waitress Aurora): 5! This was the best of the best places I ate in Boise, which I found to be a great restaurant town.

After a day reveling in the vibes of the Treefort Festival, my excitement was as high as my hunger level. As a hardcore steak aficionado, I heard whispers around town that Chandlers was the place to quiet the carnivorous call. So, I ordered their New York steak through my hotel's room service, ready for a meaty masterpiece. Expectations? Sky-high. Reality? A crash landing. The steak that arrived was less "New York" and more "New Yuck." It was as tough as leather and as flavorful as a cardboard tribute to beef. Each bite was a chewy challenge, and not even my festival-fueled hunger and a buzz could mask the disappointment. Halfway through, I surrendered, leaving the plate as a memorial to my $100 that could have been better spent on, well, nearly anything else. I really hope this was just an off night for Chandlers, especially since locals sing its praises. Maybe the steak lost its way from kitchen to room service? Whatever the case, it was a letdown this time around. Here's to hoping for a better steak-out next time, or maybe I'll just have to dine in to see what all the fuss is about.

I've been to Chandler's 4 times now and it's been delicious every time. The black orchid is my favorite appetizer, I get it every time. I recommend the grass fed filet, the Hawaiian ahi sashimi, the lobster Gouda mac, and the cheesecake. This time I tried the black cod and got the chocolate bomb for dessert, both were very good. I love the ambience and the service is great. Always a favorite spot to come for dinner.

Absolutely loved our visit to Chandlers! Our server, Bodie, took such good care of us and was wonderful the whole time! I've been wanting to try Chandlers since moving to Idaho because I heard that they had A5 Japanese Wagyu. I wanted to see if their quality was just as good as what I'm used to. My usual birthday tradition is to splurge on A5 Japanese Wagyu, which I would get at Morimoto's in Napa. I was surprised to see that Chandlers' A5 Japanese Wagyu is slightly less expensive per ounce, so I ended up getting the 10oz vs. the 5oz. It was absolutely delicious! So rich and the texture is like butter -- definitely worth the price! Make sure to order it with their recommended temperature. My steak came with two sides, so I got the creamed spinach and garlic mashed potatoes. I was surprised to see that the portions were pretty substantial for fine dining side dishes. Definitely not complaining though -- both were delicious and well-seasoned. My husband got the smoked ribeye which was also good. I'm just personally not a big fan of strong mesquite smoky flavor, but if you're into that, definitely try it! And because it was our first time at Chandlers and were there for a date night, Bodie was kind enough to bring us the chocolate soufflé on the house! The soufflé was so good, especially when topped with their orange zest whipped cream. Great texture, just had the right amount of sweetness, and wasn't too rich for chocolate. Other things to note: typical of high-end fine dining, they start you off with an amuse bouche, which was a great palette starter. They also provide you with some nice warm and damp hand towel after your meal, which made my hands feel soft afterwards. The bread service (upon request) was amazing! I'm not a bug fan of sourdough, but their sourdough dinner rolls were delicious. Their focaccia was also really good, especially paired with their champagne butter. Bread service also came with an olive tapenade which my husband loved. I also got the huckleberry lemon drop cocktail which was sooo good. I don't drink often, but when I do I prefer sweeter cocktails. The lemon drop had just the right amount of balance. Overall, we were very impressed and satisfied with our experience at Chandlers and will be definitely coming back! At the very least, I'm glad I can go back to eating good A5 Japanese Wagyu steak every year for my birthday, haha.

Have been to Boise many times; first time at Chandlers. The mood was so chill and welcoming. Had a great table in the lounge. Awesome old fashioned and devils kiss cocktails to start. We chose from the prix fixe menu. Beef Bourginon was outstanding as was the veal piccata. Wedge salads were delicious though a bit light on the dressing, and the dessert choices were equally delicious and varied. Get the bread. The butter and olive tapenade were delicious. Great jazz combo played at a volume that dulled outside conversations but didn't make personal conversations difficult. The staff were equally lovely. Friendly but not overly so. Attentive but not intrusive. Great team! This will definitely be a favorite of ours going forward.

My boyfriend and I came in with a reservation and it was so busy but we were still seated right away. The staff were so friendly and accommodating. The vibes in the restaurant were so fun, with great music and low lighting. The food was incredible and definitely worth the price. The best part of our experience, though, was our server Aurora. She was seriously one of the most genuine, humorous, and kind people I've ever met. She answered every single question we had in depth and helped us pick exactly what we wanted to eat/drink. She was so talented and definitely made us want to return asap. Thank you for a wonderful, fun experience Aurora :)

This place was so so nice. Had a Capital Grill feel to it. And I love me some Capital Grill! The service was spectacular! We had our waiter, a food runner and then another helper bringing out food. They really know how to give you an experience. The food. Well, this is where it turns. The crab cakes were ok. Not terrible at all, not by a long shot but they weren't great. At all. Served with no lemon? Weird. It needs that citrus hit. And for $33, it should just come with it. The limousine salad was outstanding. That was by far the best thing I ate. It was exquisite. The dressing was divine. It was definitely one of my all time favorite salads. Next up, we had our steaks. Hubs got the dry aged and I got the NY Strip. I guess I'm just used to a different kind of steakhouse. Neither of our steaks had grill marks. I'm probably wrong, but they looked like that fancy French boil in a bag. NOT impressed. Either of us. The leek and fennel au gratin potatoes sounded wonderful. Sounded. They didn't taste great, like they should at a steakhouse. The asparagus was good though. All in all it was wonderful, but I wasn't WOOOOOW'd (cept that salad). For the price point, I wouldn't rush to come back.

We LOOOOVE Chandlers!! We've been coming here for the past 2 years whenever we are in town to visit family from San Francisco; the food and service never disappoint, therefore the 5 stars!! We absolutely recommend experiencing all of their appetizers - most recently, we tried the abalone app. and a plate of oysters; the abalone was mouthwatering - it was tender, breaded perfectly, and the divine lemon/oyster mushroom sauce was out of this world. We also shared a beer salad before our incredible entree's arrived; we like going for the corn-fed filets and then spicing them up with either blue cheese or foi gras (my go-to!). My partner had the side Mac n cheese, which is also a go to. Have not tried it with lobster but cmon, how can that not be good?? Zach, our server, has waited on us a couple times and he is just the best. Anyhow, keep doing what you're doing Chandlers!! We will be back.

Had a reservation on New Year's Day at 5pm. We parked in the parking structure and walked over. We had a drink at the bar first and then we're seated at our table. I started with the huckleberry lemon drop and my husband had one of the whiskey cocktails. Drinks were great! We were then seated and my husband went with the clam appetizer special. They also brought out the rosemary focaccia bread and sourdough roll with champagne butter which was delicious! I ordered the smoked ribeye and my husband had the snake river farms flat iron steak Oscar style. We also ordered fries. All the food was AH-MAZING! Loved all of it! We also received a complimentary anniversary soufflé. We had a wonderful wonderful experience and will try to make chandlers an annual stop on New Year's Day!

The food was very good .. Service amazing .. As someone that eats out often and advertises for the seafood / protein industries I think the pricing was a fair.

Nothing new here, top notch service, ambiance and food. I've been here a few times and decided to stop by and order some light snacks at the bar. An hour later, my wife and I ended up trying out a myriad of dishes: Escargot, Crab Cakes, Oysters, A5 Waygu, Mushrooms and Au Gratin. Everything was great. Service at the bar was prompt, friendly, and professional. Probably the best and most professional service I've received in Boise. Atmosphere was classically elevated while feeling relaxed. Food came out of the kitchen at a great pace. Crab cakes were amazing. The crab tasted fresh and didn't contain an overbearing amount of a binding agent. Flavorful with the crab still being the star of the dish. If I'm not mistaken there was some type of horseradish sauce skirting the crab cakes which added a nice touch. Au Gratin was decadent and nicely layered. I read that there was some fennel in the dish and was slightly apprehensive. I was happy to realize that the fennel was just in the background adding a welcomed level of depth to the dish. A5 Waygu was decadent and buttery as to be expected. To top it off, their Vesper was perfectly diluted. Martini's and the ambiance go together perfectly. Looking forward to my next visit.

Ambience is perfect. They have great music 7 nights a week that really tie the place together. I sit at the bar as much as I can because I love the service. I have never had a bad experience with the wait staff as they are attentive and kind. They make sure to go above and beyond so you enjoy your meal. The food is amazing. I have never had a bad meal and this is the best place in town to get good oysters. The cherry on top is they make the best martini in town for the best price. I try to come here as often as I can.

The food and ambiance are really excellent here. We had steaks in both of our recent visits. Not sure the wagyu was quite worth the price but otherwise they and the sides (lobster mac and cheese) were very good. Elegant, upscale atmosphere with entertainment (at least on the recent Friday night we were there). The service was attentive - even overly so. To the management: suggest you train your bussers to take it easy with their exuberance to clear bread and plates. It, and our a bit pretentious server Kyle, took something away from an otherwise-excellent evening. Valet parking was complimentary but a bit strange. Why do I need to give some rando valet driver my cellphone number and email address?

We booked a reservation for a party of 5 for my birthday. Our server was excellent and the food was beyond exceptional, from the scallops to the organic champagne to the sliders and the chocolate soufflé is THE BEST - even better than I've had in Paris. Logan the presiding manager is a gentleman and the entire staff has such a warmth and knowledge and class to them that feels like luxury from start to finish. Our new restaurant as we look for any excuse to visit!

We went here for a dinner after a wedding and everything was pre-arranged so...take this with a grain of salt but: this is the best food I've had at a wedding. Everything was expertly done. The steak was as rare as it should be. The service was quick but not "in your face" quick, it was the perfect pace. The desserts were incredible. The room had nice ambiance. There's not a single nit I can even think to pick about this place. If you're looking for a steakhouse in Boise, this is the one!

We came here for a celebratory weekend, time with family plus some personal growth. We got in a little early and took advantage of the valet parking, we were greeted when we walked in, and sat in the bar until our reservation was ready. The bar staff was super friendly. I ordered the red light drink which I expected to be sweeter than it was. It had good flavor but it could have used a little something to sweeten it up just a tiny bit. The tequila was delightful! I started my meal with the burrata salad. I was beyond satisfied with that! This was simply delicious! Not one negative thing could be said... outstanding. I could make a lunch out of this every day! For dinner I ordered the 8oz northwest American wagyu. We asked the server about the different cuts and got a little lesson in the art of beef... and decided on this steak ordered medium. The steak came out perfectly cooked and seasoned well. It was very good, but was it worth the cost. This is where I'd have to say I am struggling... I think because of the ambiance and this being a special occasion it was a fun experience 100% but next time I will likely order the usda beef. I didn't think the difference was that drastic than I really good filet. For sides we ordered the leek and fennel au gratin, the saffron and Gouda Mac n cheese and the roasted veggies. All of them were great! The potato's were perfect not mushy, great flavor and so good. The Mac n cheese was creamy and wonderful and the roasted veggies were cooked perfectly! For dessert I decided ok the carrot cake and my sister decided on "the bomb" both were good. I will try others next time I come. I felt like the carrot cake was just your average carrot cake, and the bomb was delicious but maybe to rich for me. Our main server was nice enough. He became more social towards the end of the night right before he brought out the check. Which is just whatever. I think we had enough going on in our lives that it worked for us but was noticeable.
