Excellent service! Great atmosphere. Gave it 4 stars because the steak was overcooked and dry. Will go back again.
Went back again and the lunch menu was very limited. Got the chicken alfredo and wasn't that great.

Had a meatball sandwich it was cold and the bread was harder than hell, great service from waiter, place over priced.

My husband and I went here tonight for dinner and it was a great disappointment from the beginning to the end. Once we were seated at a table, we waited 15 minutes before we saw our waitress. She told us that nobody told her that we were her table. There is some bad communication between coworkers which results in terrible customer service. We ordered the shrimp bruschetta for an appetizer and it was just okay. The grape tomatos that came with it were all wrinkled and old. My husband got the soup, which he said was fine and I got the salad and it was old. The iceberg lettuce was brown and pink and the green leaf lettuce had become dark brown and shriveled up. I seriously cannot believe they served that. I showed the waitress and she couldn't believe it either. She took the salad and told me she would bring me a salad with fresh lettuce. Well, it was not fresh. It was better than the last salad, but it was still old. The lettuce had started to rot and the tomatos were all shriveled and wrinkled. Not to mention, the ranch tasted like watered down hidden valley ranch. When I am paying $80 for a meal, I expect it to be fresh and tasty. It was far from either of those. For our main course, my husband got sausage pepper tortilini (I can't remember the name) and I got grilled salmon with potatoes and veggies. My husband didn't like his meal and I hated mine. My salmon had no flavor whatsoever. The potatoes tasted as if someone sliced a baked potato and put no seasoning on it, and the veggies were very oily and they tasted like nothing. I had my husband try my meal and he agreed. We barely ate a thing, paid and left. That was the worst experience I have had at a resteraunt in a very long time. What a waste of $80. I will not be returning and I will warn others of this place.

I've dined here 4 times now as it is a great location to break up a long drive. Every meal has been excellent and service stellar. The crawfish bisque is a must! The Blackberry and Brie flatbread was an excellent sweet and savory dish. I've also had the Grilled Trip-tip small plate, Shrimp Bruchetta, Italian Club Panini, Tuscano Shrimp Penne, and Shrimp Alla Vodka. All have been superb and I am intentionally trying a different dish each visit.
Server Marissa on the latest was absolutely busting tail, hustling across all 3 sections of diners and making sure everyone was taken care of in addition to busing and cleaning tables.

Amazing Italian food. Everything I've tried is super delicious. If you need your meal altered just be sure you clarify before the order gets to the kitchen. Our only problem has been a modification not being heard or remembered.

The tri tip was tough, the food was cold. The server was very friendly. I wouldn't recommend for the price.

Waited for food for two hours after placing the order just for it to be cold, waitress did what she could but totally unorganized restaurant

Had a large group of a dozen or so which can be challenging. Service was quite good despite our size and the waitstaff was very professional - skillfully handling the service as well as multiple requests from various members of our group. Kitchen handled the load well with everyones' meals hitting the table at the same time. Food quality is good.

Allen Turner

Great ambiance and service. The food was better!!!

Don't be fooled by the convenience store, the restaurant is there. Great food and great service, this is our first time in Idaho and it's a great start. I had the Oven Baked cacciatore.
