So surprising to find such a gem so far away from a major city. Worth the drive so it shouldn't be missed. Owner opened the front door to welcome us in, his wife was at the hostess stand. Great, great service all around. Beautiful day so we sat outside on the patio so we could take in the view and beautifully landscaped grounds. One of the coolest cigar bars that I've ever seen. Prices are on the high side but not only do you get quality, you get all the sides with it so it all equals out. Beef Wellington was excellent. Cooked perfectly, delicious mushroom tapenade, and flaky crust. delish! The sides were all excellent and cooked excellently. Salmon was the just as good. Just wish it was closer to Boise! read more

From the minute we arrived we fell in love with this cute restaurant/location. The staff were so welcoming...our hostess walked out and offered to take our fam picture before we even walked in. Made us feel so special. Food...drinks...dessert....outstanding. All of it. We started with a Reserve Lemon Drop (to die for!). Then we moved on to the Glassed Brussel Sprouts (I could've just done these and had been satisfied...outstanding once again). Then the wedge full salad came to the table and knocked our boots out of how yummy yum yum that was as well. We ended the night with the T-Bone plate, Prime Rib plate and the kids steak. Chefs kissssss to all 3. We couldn't leave without trying a dessert...we got the chocolate delicacy cake along with ice cream. So glad we did. Everything was perfect. read more

Beat my expectations - worth the trip. Fantastic location in the mountains, amazing ambiance, great service, and creative food and drink choices. Other guests arrived by helicopter! Britney was our amazing server, Dennis (the "older gentleman" ) a gracious host - and future Kia owner (maybe). This place is special. read more

Great Sunday Brunch! Outstanding service, brunch selection & live music by Blake Warr.

Not impressed in the slightest. First off, the dining area was two steep levels up , which wasn't easy to deal with at our age, weather permitting you could sit outside on the patio. Food was ( in our eye's) extremely overpriced , and not worth the price. Actually, my husband and I wanted to split our dinner because we don't have huge appetite's and the charge was $25.00 to split. Needless to say, we won't be back. So dissapointed. read more

Beautiful place, great food, awesome service! I got a filet and it was delicious, so tender and perfectly cooked. Burrata was so good also! Looking forward to trying brunch read more

Was absolutely wonderful! The place is absolutely gorgeous! The owner greeted us and we had a great conversation! The waiter was wonderful and the food was amazing!

I do not do aged beef well at all. Tastes Rancid to me. I prefer a fresh steak. Service has always been excellent. Ambience is extremely Pleasant..! I've dined there 3 times. I'll be sure to ask about a FRESH NOT AGED steak next time. read more

A True Hidden Gem for Memorable Moments Anderson Reserve isn't just a restaurant it's an experience. I've celebrated birthdays, anniversaries, and special events here with family, friends, and colleagues, and every single time, it delivers something special. Paul, Dennis, and his wife have created more than a dining destination they've built a warm, welcoming environment that feels like coming home. From the moment you arrive, the vibe is peaceful and inviting. The rolling hills, the open skies, and those breathtaking sunsets never disappoint. Sitting out on the patio before the heat of summer sets in is a ritual I look forward to it's calm, beautiful, and perfect for meaningful conversations. The food? Absolutely worth every penny. Yes, it's priced higher than your average spot, but this isn't an average spot. The quality, the presentation, and the consistent excellence of the dishes -- from the perfectly cooked steaks to the veal, the fresh fish, and the mashed potatoes -- always leave a lasting impression. It's not just dinner; it's memory-making at its finest. And let's not forget the service the wait staff is always kind, attentive, and clearly committed to making each guest feel special. They enhance the experience without ever being intrusive. Anderson Reserve is a place where time slows down, connection deepens, and the food makes you close your eyes after every bite. I'm grateful to have this place in our lives, and I can't recommend it enough for anyone looking to celebrate life's special moments or just enjoy a peaceful evening in an unforgettable setting read more

I have eaten here in the past and their food is great but a bit pricey. It is a 45 min. drive to get here from where I live. Today we went to have lunch and enjoy the view of the country life. I ordered the prime rib sandwich and was disappointed with how salty the meat was. The waiter asked if I wanted my food boxed since I had taken two bites and didn't finished. I told him it was too salty for my liking. The waiter came back and told me he mentioned to the kitchen of the saltiness of the meat. Andersons Reserve made no attempt to remedy the problem by offering something comparable to what I ordered. I paid my bill, left hungry and very disappointed. I will not be coming to this establishment again nor recommend it since they don't value their customer and lack customer service. read more

I am glad the owner's have finally responded directly to my comment instead of tracking me down, deleting my original comment, then attempting to review-bomb my place of work. So thank you for being direct. I was not given an option to say no to the spanking... but that's probably because I'm not a senator. I am a young woman who just wanted to have a private birthday dinner with her family. Since I have been honest about my experience- I have been both privately harassed in an attempt for silence - AS WELL AS multiple women messaging me with similar experiences thanking me for speaking up. People should at least know what they are getting into or sign a waiver - because that paddle left bruises. read more

10 Stars *********** Unbelievable experience and the food is among the best I've ever eaten. A must-visit dining spot. I also want to address the naysayers; there's always one in every town who complains about everything. They need to stay home. Best regards David www.iconicpremier.world read more

Went for Sunday brunch yesterday. Our first visit. This is probably one and done for me, but I am hoping the management reads these reviews. The good: awesome steak! Expertly cooked and very tasty. Also strangely, the lobster tail was amazing! The wedge salad was fresh and crisp and also tasty. The bacon was amazing! Great service, very attentive. The building itself is a cool refurbished barn. We didn't mind the drive from Boise. The not-so-good: Prix fixe menu of three courses for $40 per person.. two shrimp is not a shrimp cocktail, cup of bisque and then a nice size breakfast platter of your choosing. Not a good deal. Brunch should include some type of bread and also a dessert and drink. It might have been worth the price with these things added. It appears to me that this restaurant is wanting to be a high end place based on the high prices and menu offerings. However the tables are like something you would see in a fast food restaurant... high tables with unpadded chairs upstairs and low tables with unpadded chairs downstairs, with the exception of 2 tables with padded chairs by the fireplace. Why don't you want people to be comfortable? Low, more comfortable tables and table linens and some mood lighting would make for an atmosphere closer to your price point.....The lobster bisque was tasty, but the texture and color were all off. It was very very red and thick and gelatinous. It should be the consistency of a tomato cream soup. The short rib Benedict was very sweet! A Benedict is a savory dish. The breakfast potatoes were mushy. They should be crisp. Try oven cooking them? Conclusion: this is a great concept but the uncomfortable tables and sub par recipes on some items do not make it worth the price. These are easy, relatively inexpensive fixes that could really boost your ratings and your customer count. You want people to come back and tell their friends! read more

Took my dad up there for a cigar and a bourbon. We had it out on their back deck/patio. Nice scenery and a very relaxing atmosphere. Great place if you are a cigar connoisseur and want to sit back and relax. Thanks Anderson Reserve. read more

Ok.... Here we go. While there is some truth to the negative reviews, you're dining in Idaho. And not just Idaho, but Sweet, Idaho. 1) It's a drive to get there, with scenery as gorgeous as anything on the West Coast. 2) The food IS very good, though very expensive. 3) The owners make you feel like you're part of the family. 4) The cigar lounge and bar located in a "silo" is a great reason to show up for your reservation early, or a great finish to your night. read more

I don't know where to even start with this. Absolutely gorgeous restaurant. The grounds are beautiful, the restaurant is beautiful, the patio was beautiful. Just perfect. We sat on the patio and just thoroughly enjoyed the peace and quiet. Our server was wonderful. Knowledgeable, unobtrusive, efficient. Everything you could ask for. The food. The food was unreal. The Brussels sprouts were so delicious. Hot. Fresh. The sauce was so good I could have licked the plate. Crab cakes were delicious and full of crab and flavor. I had the veal and it was tender and flavorful and the sauce was perfect. My friend's Tbone looked fabulous. Desserts were delicious as well. It's worth the drive and by far one of the best meals and experiences I've had on a long, long time. read more

Food was spendy, but delicious! The staff were super friendly and the setting was magical! Perfect for a special occasion.

My siblings and I reserved a dinner here for my parents 44th wedding anniversary and impressed upon the staff how important it was that they be well taken care of. They delivered above and beyond and made such a special evening for my parents, despite some scheduling issues caused by mom at the last minute. We are so appreciative of their attentiveness and will definitely return here for another special occasion. The food is reportedly fantastic as well. read more

On 1/18/20, KM and I visited Anderson Reserve for dinner. We started with an appetizer of Rocky Mountain Oysters with a Dill dipping sauce ($16). My maternal grandmother came from a ranching family, so this was not my first experience eating this dish. Although the presentation was beautiful, I found this version bland and dependent upon the dipping sauce for flavor. KM ordered USDA Dry Aged Prime Rib, slow roasted and served with Au Jus and Horseradish Crema ($50). I ordered the USDA Prime Grade Fillet, pan seared and topped with Candied Bacon Wrapped Jumbo Prawns and finished with Smoked Tomato Butter ($45). Both entrées came with Twice Baked Potatoes and Sautéed Seasonal Vegetables. In addition, we both ordered a Garden Salad ($7) with Blue Cheese Gorgonzola dressing. Our meals were beautifully plated and topped with micro-greens. Unfortunately, the emphasis on plating over function made it difficult for KM to cut her steak. She enjoyed her prime rib, but it was not the best she's ever had, though it is certainly was the most she's ever paid for one. KM's steak was not as tender as it should have been, given she paid a premium for dry-aged meat. I later learned Anderson Reserve dry ages their beef for 3 days, which is not dry aging. I enjoyed my steak. Neither of us cared for our twice baked potatoes, which were dry. We liked the sautéed seasonal vegetables, which were very flavorful. We wanted to order dessert but decided to skip it after learning it was not made in house, and our server was unable to tell us the source. Anderson Reserve does not meet ADA guidelines. The only way to access the second level is up a narrow set of stairs. If you have mobility issues, I recommend you reserve a table on the ground level. While we both had an enjoyable evening and enjoyed our meals, we felt they were overpriced. read more

This steak was everything I wanted. It was thick, juicy, and seasoned just enough to let the natural flavors shine. The outside had a nice crisp crust that added an extra layer of texture, and the inside was so tender. The meat was full of bold, beefy flavor that made every bite so enjoyable. read more

The drive is amazing. Once you arrive to the ranch you see the beautiful white building. I am not a fan of the high table seating. It doesn't make for a comfortable arrangement for a nice meal for over 1+ hour for the cost you're paying. If you bring 6+ people the table setting is very uncomfortable. For dinner I had the steak filet salad and my husband had the cowboy. His came with seasonal vegetables and garlic mash and my husband also got, a side salad. The rolls and honey butter are delicious! The steak was a tad salty, the cocktails are amazing! The bourbon list is nothing short of stunning. The customer service was friendly, knowledgeable and makes me want to come back again and again. read more

Beautiful scenic drive up to Sweet. Restaurant has a nice esthetic & atmosphere. Upscale barn feeling, casual dress. Warm greeting from the owners. Server was pleasant. Potatoes au gratin & brocolini were delicious. Steak wasn't our personal favorite. Didn't care for the demi glaze on top, it over powered the meat itself and lacked in tenderness. It was disappointing unfortunately. Pricey indeed, to be expected for a special occasion. Two meals, no apps, no drinks $185 read more

Once was enough, drove 50 miles to have this weak experience. Way over priced, setting so so, stairs to get to the dining room, service was average, staff not real impressive, have had better food elsewhere for SURE. read more

Their food is phenomenal! And the service was great too! I can't recommend Anderson Reserve enough!

Amazing food, charcuterie board was delicious and steak was excellent! Great service. Staff makes you feel like family.

We received a gift certificate for birthdays. The drive out there from the Treasure Valley was stunning. Highly recommend planning the trip so at least the drive to is before sunset. We arrived a little early and sat at the bar. The cocktails are fabulous and are served in high end Riedel stemware. Griffin the bar tender was very friendly and attentive and offered entrée recommendations. My one slightly nit picky feedback for the drinks was the lime in my drink was from a bottle and not squeezed from a lime. Indoor seating is all on the second floor in a loft. All these tables are high tops with glass tables. This is all form and no function. There's no foot rests or purse hooks and I'm not certain the space is accessible for anyone who cannot use stairs. We made a note for returning to request outside seating because we were overall uncomfortable during our meal. We both had a wedge salad which was delicious. My partner had the Cowboy cut ribeye. I had the prime rib and added a lobster tail. So they don't give you actual steak knives. Our guess because they pride themselves on having steak that cuts like butter. This was not the case for our steaks. My prime rib had nice flavor but overdone and slightly tough. The Ribeye was undercooked and tough- noting here this is a $98 steak. I noted that the lobster tail ($28) wasn't served with clarified butter. Looking at the yelp photos it looks like we missed being offered fresh rolls and butter. For dessert we had some kind of chocolate thing. I wanted a more traditional chocolate cake so it was just meh for me. We will return and make sure to have different seating and also try the short rib entree that the bar tender recommended. Overall for a fine dining steakhouse ($$$$) with a helipad for VIPs, there were certainly a lot of misses. read more

Anderson Reserve - The Sun Also Rises - Steakhouses Near Me - Sweet, Idaho

Disappointing. Really wanted to like this place. Overpriced for mediocre food/experience. The lamb chop was undercooked and had more gristle than meat. Prime rib was overcooked. Appetizers were fine. Cocktails 50/50, first was great, second was half full. Iced tea is 2.50 a pop for mostly ice and there's a fee for using a credit card. Seems a bit nickel and dimey for a $300 meal for two. Server seemed distracted and forgot one of our dishes. Just not the premium experience they're charging for. read more

The drinks and appetizers are great. As well as the facilities, very attractive layout for sure. This was the second time we have gone for a meal, lunch this time, Dinner last time and the food, the meat, was grossly overcooked. We ordered it prepared Medium Rare, on the rare side, and received well done steak. Yes they replaced the steak with another, but overcooked as well. This will be the last time we go for a meal. Service on the other hand was good, Jim was professional, and very nice. Get a cook that knows how to grill steak, it's your main attraction, well maybe not. read more

We took a nice drive out her for our anniversary dinner. We had heard mixed reviews and decided we would try it for Sunday brunch. What was good: atmosphere- we sat outside and it was a beautiful day. The candied bacon was delicious - they should sell this! The cream brulee cheesecake in the biscuit was also good. The hostess and most staff top notch! What wasn't good.... Our food came out Barely warm and the ribeye had no flavor- tasted like cardboard. The appetisers were teeny tiny like 2 sugar cubes. It was very pricey for what you got and overall disappointing. This could be a great place if the food was revamped.... read more

Oh my, Anderson Reserve isn't just delicious food but hygge experience. This is the perfect place for family, friends and special occasions

My wife and I celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary at the Anderson Reserve restaurant in Sweet, Idaho. We started out toasting with a flute of champaign that was FREE, then some shrimp prongs, a salad, and the main course was a filet. We finished with dessert (chocholate cake & lemon smash cake) topped off with a cup of coffee. We met the owners Dennis (Master Butcher) and his wife Phemia who were both very nice and welcoming. The server was excellent, and the entertainment was top-notch. We have been to many five-star restaurants, and Anderson Reserve is definitely in that class! read more

We went for Mother's Day brunch! We had reservations at 3:15! We arrived 45 minutes earlier! We asked if we could be seated now! They said no even though they had plenty of open tables! We didn't realize the brunch ended at 3pm which they should of told us especially since it was Mother's Day! Bad management and owners of this establishment! I will definitely not support the Star location! The ambiance was the only good experience! read more

Do not celebrate a birthday here! They have a disrespectful tradition of bending female guests over a railing and hitting them with an oversized cutting board. They memorialize this practice by displaying the signed boards on their restaurant wall. It's a sick practice that completely caught us off guard. We were treating our daughter and her husband for her 30th birthday dinner and expected to celebrate with a wonderful meal and great wine. The food was good, but at those prices, it met our expectations, but not more. Our experience was ruined at the end of the meal when the owner, along with his wife, came to escort their guest to the balcony, where she was asked to bend over the railing in front of the entire restaurant then struck with force on the bottom with a huge wood cutting board. There was no consent. This was not a joke. This backhanded action may be thinly veiled as a playful birthday tradition, but it was an assault, and this restaurant makes you pay for it. I wonder if we were celebrating my husband's birthday, if they would haul him up in front of the restaurant to spank him? I think not. I'm disgusted. read more

Service was amazing! Thank you Jeffrey for the Champagne on our Anniversary! The Anderson Family never disappoints. The youngest Anderson (I think was 9) Made my wedge salad and it was delicious.

Ambiance was wonderful, beautiful property and friendly service. We really really wanted to like this place. Unfortunately, the food was just okay and for the price, it's absolutely not worth it. I've had much much better for a lot less. And I've paid the same price and been blown away. My steak was so overwhelming seasoned with rosemary and thyme, it was hard to eat. Sides were fine but nothing special. Shrimp cocktail was good. Best part of the meal was the lobster in the surf and turf. Both of my husband's drinks were very watered down. Highlight of the night was the bar and cigar silos next door. read more
