Holy Cow Idaho!

Just had food delivered. The fish was super crispy and absolutely delicious. The fries were the same. My husband had a Reuben and side salad. The only problem with any of it was that I forgot to get him extra ranch. He likes a little salad with his dressing. Would definitely recommend this place.

Holy Cow – Nampa, Idaho The wife and I stopped by Holy Cow and were seriously impressed. We tried the Sam Elliott Burger and the Mac & Cheese Egg Rolls, and both absolutely delivered. The sauce on the burger was next-level — rich, flavorful, and perfectly paired with the patty. But the real standout? Those Mac & Cheese Egg Rolls. Hands down one of the best appetizers I’ve ever had. Crispy outside, creamy and cheesy inside — just perfect. The atmosphere is just as memorable. It’s got a rustic base layered with this modern, funky 90’s throwback vibe that makes it feel both cozy and cool. Whether you’re in it for the food or the experience, Holy Cow nails it on both fronts. We’ll definitely be back.

Holy Cow the food is delicious! This was our first stop after getting into town and wow our group was thrilled! Despite the busy condition, we were sat right away and service was fantastic. The gal who served our table was friendly and made great menu recommendations which we all enjoyed. Started with the Mac & cheese egg rolls, they were the right amount of spicy, good texture and not too filling shared amongst the table. Each of us ordered burgers and were pleased with the flavors. We had a mix of tots and fries at the table and all agreed they were equally good. Burgers were generous in size and allowed for us all to take home leftovers. Restaurant was bright, clean, and an overall nice atmosphere. Good experience, great food.

I feel in my honest opinion this place is just ok. Not super good, but not terrible either. The wings were the best of the day for this trip! I loved that for being "buffalo" they weren't swimming in a traditional Buffalo sauce. The mac and cheese egg rolls were great as well. I got the special which was a cherry jalapeño sauce and it was good.

The food was absolutely amazing. The atmosphere was open and nice. The service wasn’t horrible, but never had the server check back until we were done. But nothing bad, she was professional and nice.

Have heard about this place for quite a while so finally decided to give it a shot. Went there for lunch for the first time today and i was not disappointed. The Reuben sandwich was outstanding. Lots of meat and grilled onions. Very flavorful. Bread was grilled and crispy. Dynamite. Fried pickles were excellent too. I will be back.

My husband took me to dinner here and I had no idea what to expect. The service was insanely good! The whole staff worked seamlessly together-- it was impressive! My husband and I both got burgers and we just about food-gasmed...SO freakin' juicy. I'm still recovering. I got a side salad and veggies were beautifully fresh with my favorite, picked onions YUM! Highly recommend... TOTALLY worth the drive from Boise, 100%! Also, I would have taken photos but I was too busy stuffing my face 🤭

Awesome place! Tots over the fries! Had burgers, fish tacos, codzilla for our family and everything was very good. Fry sauce is a must! Wish this place was on Seattle

This was a really enjoyable American style restaurant. It was a fun and open atmosphere with interesting art work. We were seated as soon as we entered and had our waitress at our table right away to take our drink orders. And she was always available. We tried the elk sliders and they were amazing, and the tater tots were cooked perfect. We tried a few of their local IPAs and they were served cold in a cold glass. Our overall experience was good. They gave you a lot of food and everything tasted good. Seating is spaced well so you are never sitting next to others. The music was not loud so it was easy to have conversations. I would recommend this place for families or couples or even if you are by yourself. They have an enjoyable bar area with seating. We were traveling and felt lucky to find this restaurant.

GF Burger and brussel sprouts( not GF). Yum! Quaint atmosphere. Lunch or dinner. Friendly servers.

Great burger and the fries/tots are very good. The servers are very accommodating and knowledgeable with the menu.

Arrived at 8:20 on a Wednesday night. The signs clearly showed they close at 9. The front door was locked. People inside ignored us. We tried to call and the call was not answered.

I come here from time to time. In can be a little hard finding parking but its worth the drive. I like to order a burger and tots. It is always cooked well and the fries are always well seasoned. The holy cow cause is great and it has great flavor. The waiters are always nice and so it the cashier. They get us seated in a timely manner. The holy cow has great merchandise in store and it feels cozy. I would recommend coming here for lunch. Its when its least busy. Great spot.

This place was delicious, I recommend the spicy chicken sandwhich! Can't wait to go back and try the rest of the items. Update I've been back since and had to add the Rude Boi to my list. Not my go to order, but I was shocked at how fantastic this burger was.

Trying new restaurants, we had heard good things about this one. Reviews were right about the good food. Have eaten there twice now trying different things. Very tasty! Our food was delivered to our table within a short time and the place was busy. Staff is friendly as well. Will continue to try different items.

Really good burger! Could use a bit more seasoning on the patties but the veggies on it were fresh, crisp, and delicious. Buns were good. Fries were delicious. Staff were friendly and attentive. I hope their appetizer special of poutine with the cheese curds (forgot what they called it) will become a regular item!

Food was amazing and the service was even better! The atmosphere was so inviting! I would totally recommend this place and will definitely be back!

The Sam Elliot was 10/10!!! We also tried the egg rolls and they were good too. Loved their fries as well and our waitress was very sweet. Would highly recommend the Sam Elliot!

Servers are to busy at the bar to serve or check on your dinner! Ordered both our dinners but only one arrived! Server never checked on us after taking our order! Restaurant was not busy. Duty manager didn't care and made excuses!

I've been back twice now within a couple months and I find the location wonderfully Convenient in old town Nampa, the staff are all super nice and efficient and the interior is way cool. But both times my burger has been so overcooked that it's grey inside. They don't ask how you like it cooked so this time I made sure to especially request medium rare but it was still cooked well, just like others at the table. We had made another request and that was overlooked too. So, even though I want to love it, I just don't want to return for a grey beef patty. :(

Food was great! This place knows how to make a great burger. The tots were tops! Nice people too.

Food was really good but it is pricey, one of the more expensive places when the whole family goes out. Waitress was ehh and seemed annoyed to be there but the food runners were friendly

This place went down hill very quickly after having a great start.... They might be closing soon for their crappy young service!!!!!! Their staff is just rude, unhappy and unpleasant!!!!!! $16 burgers or more with a La carte everything, save yourself the headache!!

If you want an amazing burger and delicious, crispy fries, come here to eat! The service was excellent, and the restaurant is decorated very eclectic. They sell merch and other small trinkets as well. The peanut butter chocolate cake wasn't very good, but everything else was!

Im a bit of a burger connoisseur. I'm pretty selective on where I get burgers from. Holy Cow was recommended to me so I went out there today with my wife and a couple of friends to try it out. I ordered the Sam Elliot and all I can say is HOLY COW!!! What an amazing burger!!! We were seated fast! The service we got was exceptional. Our order was taken quickly without being pressured, our food came out fast and was cooked on point and our drinks were regularly topped up. We were tended to for anything we may have needed regularly without being a nuisance. I was happy to leave a very generous tip. The waitress deserved it!

Stop wasting your time & money at In & Out and have a REAL burger! A friend in Nampa brought me here a few weeks ago and I've been dreaming about bringing my husband ever since who is a burger critic In all honesty, I don't love burgers! In fact maybe have one only a few times a year but the Rude Boi is sooooo good I could eat it a few times! My husband went with a more simple choice of the Delixe but said it was still amazing! I LOVE the fries too and he loved the tater tots! The side you walk in to is more of a storefront shop feel with windows all around! The other side is more of a saloon feel with a very large bar! The service is great from the time you walk in and I already can't wait to go back!

Best burger joint! The rude boi is my go to and it always hits the spot. Kandi was an excellent server, too! Thank you!

First time visiting, and I am absolutely impressed at everything about this place!!! Great decorations, perfect for conversation pieces, and they even have cute little knickknacks to buy...but...the menu... was literally out of this world!!! Their burgers melt in your mouth with such incredible flavors you never want it to end! The tater tots are perfectly crispy and we had fish tacos that are literally some of the best I've ever had in my whole life. It was very enjoyable, very palatable, they do an appetizing display presenting you you your food and we definitely will return. The hostess at the front was so kind and helpful with answering all my questions, even gave some really good suggestions for a first time visitor!

The Cobb salad was excellent as were the wings. They arrived in a timely manner, the delivery person was very gracious.

Super fun atmosphere. We were seated, our orders were taken and food came out fast and hot! . There were 5 of us. We had the popcorn chicken, Sam Elliot, Reuben, SweetHeat and the Holy Cow! All of it was delicious! I highly suggest the SweetHeat burger. The sauce is fantastic. And the Holy Cow is HUGE! Loved the tots. Great, fast and personable service. They took great care of us! Highly recommend this place!

It was just OK. With all the talk surrounding Holy Cow, I had pretty high expectations, especially considering the prices. Everything on the menu sounded delicious and well-crafted. The burgers are made from locally sourced wagyu. I landed on the Rude Boi Burger (1/2 pound beef patty, charred jalapeno, house made pimento cheese, bacon, roasted jalapeno aioli on a toasted brioche bun, $17.50). I wasn't asked how done I wanted it cooked, and I should have made a comment because this sammy was dry af. Even in the very middle. The meat was definitely high quality and it probably would have been a delicious burger if it was cooked to my liking. The jalapenos delivered zero heat. I didn't hate it, but it was just an ordinary burger. It was very good dipped in fry sauce. The fries were good but nothing extraordinary. My husband ordered the Sam Elliot, which came with pulled pork and bacon, American and cheddar cheese, BBQ Sauce and "cowboy" mayo ($18.00). When I asked how it was, he said, "Meh." He, too, would rather have been asked how done he'd like it cooked. The service was pretty good! Our service did ask how everything tasted to which I responded, "It's alright." She took the time to ask about my concerns and I appreciated that! I suggested they consider how doneness can really make or break a burger and kindly ask their patrons. She was incredibly receptive to the feedback and said she'd take it to the chef. :) It'll be a while before I return but I believe I will. Everyone deserves second chances and I would love to come back in a few months ready for a five star review!

Wonderful food and atmosphere! We go just about every time my daughter has a competition in Nampa.

What a gem! The ambience and service were really great. The little gift shop was perfect to look at while we waited for a table to be open. For an appetizer, We had the fried pickles and Mac Egg rolls for appetizers. Both of which were really good. The fried pickles were a mix of pickles and I absolutely loved the spicy pickle chips that were in the mix! They also weren't bogged down with a heavy batter. The Mac egg rolls have a sauce on top that didn't really seem fitting, it was way too sweet and had a weird taste. I didn't care for it too much, neither did my company. If I get the chance to go back again I'd get it on the side or omit altogether. Other than the sauce, the Mac egg rolls were delicious. For dinner, I got the rude boi and my company got the classic. The rude boi was so good and the perfect amount of spicy. They have an extensive draft list and was able to try out some local brews. Really loved the Mother Earth beers they had on tap. Overall, really enjoyed the service, staff and food at Holy Cow in Nampa. We had a great time and would highly recommend

The food was just delicious and the right portion for the price. A bit different than the norm when it come to tacos which made it enjoyable to try the different styles. The server was very patient with myself being a deaf customer that came in with a disabled client. We came right before the lunch rush so we were able to enjoy our surroundings and leave before it got too busy.

Amazing food, excellent service. I like the lay out of the restaurant. It's has really fun decorations.

They had me at Kung Pao Brussel Sprouts. While visiting Boise, I made the drive to Nampa to eat lunch at this special restaurant. Opened just a few months before the plague shut everything down, I'm happy to see they are thriving and expanding. The Kung Pao Brussel Sprouts, as promised, were terrific. They were a great side to my cheeseburger (and probably the first time I passed on fries with my burger). If you aren't a fan of Brussel Sprouts this could probably change your mind. And my Classic hamburger with blue cheese was delicious. I don't know what cows eat, but apparently these 1/3 pound burgers came from cows who ate grass. That must be a good thing because these simple patties tasted beefy and made for a perfect hamburger with a brioche bun. With a large assortment of beers and ciders on tap and bottled, I would have absolutely no hesitation recommending this restaurant.

Second time here, the first visit was shortly after it opened and it was just okay. The squeeze and I shared the Rude Boi burger with onion rings. Very good burger, pretty spicy but not too hot for us. The onion rings were very good with no pullout, if you know what I mean. One burger filled us both up. A tad expensive, but everything is now. Service was excellent.

I know you're thinking the same thing as I was "Mac & Chz egg rolls"? One of the best odd ball apps I've ever enjoyed!!! Outstanding service!!! Quick responses for refills and sauces. Will for sure become a new regular.

Everything was great! Service was good, food was good, environment was good. Burgers do not come with a side, so keep that in mind when you order. We were not asked how we wanted our burgers cooked (maybe they don't do that?) but they came out medium-medium well. Tiny bit of pink. They were juicy and tasted great. Fries are yummy and came out super hot. All appetizers were really good. The Mac and cheese egg rolls have bbq sauce on them. I would order them without next time but they were really good either way. The strawberry ice box pie was like one of those strawberry crumbly ice cream bars that you get from the ice cream trucks. Really good!

The classic tasted like a good backyard burger, very good. The Mac and cheese rolls were delicious ofcourse but next time I'd leave off the bbq sauce drizzle.

I'm so happy we have a local burger joint that meets our needs. The variety, flavors, portions and pricing are all on point.

Four stars for the food but 5 stars for service. Veronica took care of our big group like a pro! Thanks so much, Veronica! Great ambiance as well!

This place was delicious! I ordered a cheese burger with a gluten free bun and it was really good! Their tater tots were cooked perfectly and were so yummy! The atmosphere was great too! Next time I find myself in the area the area I will definitely be coming back.

I'm doing a quick update here. My first review was back when Holy Cow was still pretty new. These days, this place is my "go-to" burger place in NAMPA! I really like this place, and have had many great meals here!

I have been wanting to try this place since moving to Idaho and yesterday was my chance...I am going to be a little gracious on the star ratings because I get staffing problems l, but if that's the case don't open up the whole restaurant. We walked in and despite having empty tables were told it would be a 20 min wait or we could sit at the bar right away. It's was only 2 of us so why not...that's were the annoying part came. A simple trick to customer service is to reset customers minds by a simple greet and will be right with you. That was almost 10 mins just to get someone to acknowledge us. After this the experience got much better. To be honest I was almost ready to walk out.. After ordering our drinks and food in fear that no one would come back...I had the Rude Boi burger which consisted of jalapeños, pimento cheese and other great flavors. The burger was delicious I will give them that but as soon as you add on anything here it costs at least $18-20+ for a burger then you have to pay for any kind of side like fries, onion rings etc...the funny thing is none of these are homemade. We had both fries and rings and you could tell both were frozen processed food. The 3 star is for the awesome tasting burger and the loss of stars is for charging for everything, lack of service, beer out of can and horrible tasting red wine...inside the place is very cool with great decor and ambiance, but staff needs to work on the whole experience.

Great food, great location and service. We ask for a change on a menu item and they gladly granted our request. It was delicious.

We finally had an opportunity to patronize this downtown Nampa restaurant. Truly enjoyed the meal and the atmosphere. The place inside is actually a lot bigger than I anticipated. We started off with two orders of the Mac n Cheese Eggeolls. A couple of our party liked them but was not sure about the BBQ sauce. I, on the other hand, loved them. It's a very interesting appetizer I've not experienced before. Suggest giving them a try! Three of us had the Pollo Fuego, and one had the Pit Boss sandwich. No one was dissatisfied. I had the Fuego, and the chicken portion was much bigger than I expected. The flavor was good, but I did expect it to be a bit spicier. I like me spice. The fries I ordered as a side were also very good. We will get here again someday for another visit and to try other options. The menu has lots of choices. They do have a full bar as well, so drink options are plenty.

Absolute banger place to eat. From the Classic burger to the Sawtooth steak melt and the mac n cheese egg rolls.. 10/10 Weekly-monthly regular customer.

We're from out of state and every time we come to town we've always made it a point to eat here. Today is the last time we will ever give business to them. I went in with a group of 5 adults and two children, we all ordered food and drinks but one child wanted a slice of pizza so my brother went next door to Messengers to grab her "one" slice. He walked in with it and the waitress (rudely) did not let him bring it in. We told her it was only one slice for our three year old and she said (rudely) "doesn't matter." Keep in mind we also ordered a kids meal from them as well so it's not like they were losing out on anything. Our child really just wanted a slice of pizza. We canceled our order, paid for our drinks, walked out and enjoyed our dinner at Messengers. Who denies a toddler a slice of pizza?

Local hotspot with great food! Stopped in for dinner on a Friday evening while visiting friends. It was quite busy, but we were seated timely. We ordered several different burgers, and each one was delicious. Portion size fit the price point, and the staff was very attentive. The modernesque interior was apportioned well and very clean. We didn't visit the restrooms.

We love it here ! Definitely on our top 10! The burgers are to die for ! And the atmosphere is amazing ! Can't beat downtown!

Came here on a Thursday around 4 pm. Ordered the fish and chips. Fish was kinda dry and was not seasoned. Batter is crispy. Tartar sauce was bland. The chips are super crispy and had a nice batter to it. I gave this review less stars because of atmosphere and service. We had to actively ask for service to order refills on drinks or order more food. There were so many flies buzzing around our table the whole time which was annoying and kinda gross. Makes me wonder if there's flies all over the food in the kitchen.

Great burger joint with some very creative appetizers and burger names. Bit pricy for a family but great place for a date night or evening with friends! Would 100% return and bring people with me!

They used to be pretty good. Lately, not so much. Greasy, soggy fries, tasteless expensive hamburgers, horrible fish and chips. Used to love the kung pao brussles sprouts but even those have suffered. I can't recommend this place.

I had the Sam Elliot Burger and it was amazing!!! The French Fries were very good as well. Holy Cow has a very fun atmosphere as well.

My family and I have been coming here for years and love that there's something for all of us. Tater tots are always a hit and so good. Recently discovered a few of their appetizers and they're good. Husband and I love when they have the apple salad not sure what the name is but it's only brought during a certain period. Service is always good & ambiance is fun. It is on the pricier side so just beware we do come here only when we want to splurge a little on a burger.

I really keep trying to like this place. The food is good but not exactly worth the prices they want. The last few times we have been in the hostess was just standing there with another waitress talking and took a few minutes to even acknowledge us. Then after being sat we wait for at least 4-5 minutes for any server to approach us at the table. They seem more rushed and impatient than actually trying to set a good experience. Being in a customer service job myself it definitely lacks in the friendly atmosphere. I have tried this place multiple times and keep getting disappointed so I couldn't really say I would recommend this place to anyone over some of the other restaurants around the same location.
