Few weeks back, my friends and I went to an escape room. That was a first for me. Had always wanted to do one. So it was kinda cool it finally happened.
However, that will obviously be a separate review seeing as this review is about a restaurant. A restaurant that we all went to after the escape room.
I had never even heard of this place. It's in Meridian. I live in NW Boise. So if I can avoid Meridian...I will. At any cost. I hate it lol. It's so overcrowded with traffic and it gets worse by the day.
ANYWAY, this restaurant was kinda like right as you head into Meridian. So I agreed to go hahaha! It's before you hit Eagle Rd. So basically, you don't wanna drive off the road to fuck you're in this area because traffic isn't AS bad.
As mentioned, I had never heard of this place. All my friends live in Meridian and Nampa. So they had all been here and seemed to like it.
I enjoyed it as well. Was it the best place I've ever eaten at? No, but it's a cool place to go to with a bunch of people. It's very spread out. Nice large restaurant so you aren't cramped at all. Very high ceilings too. Not sure why I noticed that and am mentioning it, but yeah, I guess maybe because you don't really see such high ceilings in restaurants lol.
Ok, so I'm the pickiest eater on the planet. I'm a big kid who eats like a small kid. Yes, it's pretty pathetic lol. It was nice to feel like I was 8 again when I ordered the chicken fingers. I never really eat deep fried stuff. However, I never eat early like this and wanted something that wouldn't totally fill me up for later.
It was decent. I mean, nothing to write home to mama about lol. I did not however like their fries. I just wish restaurants would have regular fries rather than these house fries. Or at least have another option to choose from. These were not crispy, they were soggy, salty (obviously to be expected. Remember, I'm picky lol).
So yeah, just kind of a mediocre meal, but not bad enough to say OMFG I HATED IT! Hahaha!
My friends seem to think the same of theirs. If I'm with people, I always tell them I'll be doing a Yelp review and need pieces of feedback from them on their meals or experiences or both. They said they enjoyed theirs, but that was kind of the extent of it. No rave reviews.
I think the company is what made our time there a great one. We were there for close to 2 hours and in true form, I of course entertained them with my unbelievably great sense of humor hahaha! Nah, it was just a great time with them.
The service was excellent. Our waitress was super nice, very attentive, checked on the table regularly, that rarely happens anymore at restaurants. Overall, it was a great time. Little pricey tbh tho. Can't find many places these days that are reasonable thanks to inflation (heavy eye roll and talks under breath of why inflation is so bad lol).
Also, anywhere in Meridian will be more expensive. Tons of out of staters moving there. So costs continue to climb. It's like that everywhere in Idaho. However, Meridian has gotten ridiculous.
If you haven't tried this place, regardless of what was said here, lol, I do recommend it. It's not a bad place. It's just kind of like one of those places you head to that seems familiar or you want something that's not over the top while definitely not wanting shit food from some fast food restaurant like.. In n Out or McDonald's lol.
Not much else to say. Sorry this wasn't like the best review. I definitely write more in most reviews than I have here. I know many who have gone here, love it and I'm sure ones who will go for the first time will enjoy it. Ok it's like a really nice Dennys or something haha!
Thanks for reading, Yelperz!!!
Cheers!
