I ordered the turkey club, which was made with freshly roasted turkey rather than deli meat. The portion was generous, and I ended up taking half of it home. My daughter ordered the eggs, bacon, potatoes, and French toast, and her meal was also a great size with plenty of food. You could tell everything was made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. I highly recommend giving this place a try!

THE CHICKEN AND WAFFLES WERE AN ABSOLUTE DISGRACE! I've been eating breakfast longer than some of…read morethese cooks have been alive, and I can assure you this wasn't it. It tasted like something a 10-year-old could throw together after watching one cooking video online. I could've stayed home, saved my money, and made a better breakfast in my slippers! Now, I'll give credit where it's due--the service was lovely. Bless those workers. But then they sat us at a table covered in onions! ONIONS! There were onions all over the table, and to top it off, my chair was sprinkled with onions too. I came for breakfast, not to marinate like a pot roast. Needless to say, not a breakfast place I'd choose again.

I had the Chicken and Waffle Benedict and can I just say... WOW. The chicken wasn't overly breaded; it was perfectly light and crispy. The waffles were nice and fluffy, and the hash browns were crisp just how I like them. I came with my neighbors, and they were just as happy with their meals. We also tried the mimosa flights with different juices, and they were so delightful! They have two different options, so I tried one and my neighbor tried the other. Let's just say they had us feeling great after. If you're looking for a breakfast spot to catch up with friends or family, this is the spot. Try it -- you'll love it!

I'm not really in favor of having to give your cell phone number to feed into their app so you know when your table is ready, but there you have it. The inside is pretty cool if you are into that "converted warehouse" feel of exposed beam crossed with a country kitchen feel. Tables aren't crammed together, definitely a sense of space. There are booth options as well. And as I prefer, no TVs. There were 2 groups of 14 that were served during our visit, so they can definitely accommodate larger parties. Our server rarely checked in, took 10 minutes to refill coffee after we requested a top off (she forgot), and never ended up refilling out water. The coffee we did get was good though. As always, I'm a hollandaise connoisseur as the foundation for perfect Benedict - my go to breakfast item. So I asked for a sample before I ordered, and I'm glad I did. The Griddle's hollandaise was curious. It was clearly about 25-50% powdered mix (which tastes like nasty beef gravy) with the balance being added clarified butter and a very strong dose of lemon. It was marginal, but good enough. So, I went with the crab cake Benedict. The crab cakes were a bit "fishy," so the strong lemon flavor was a plus. After flagging down our server, I requested a new poached egg as one of them arrived hard boiled. (I want runny yolks as hard boiled are too chalky for my taste.) The replacement egg was delivered very quickly. My guest had the banana Texas french toast special with added bacon and scrambled eggs. Bacon was nice and thick, nicely cooked. Scrambled eggs are pretty much just that. The french toast did have great body to it, but I'm not a huge banana fan. Still enjoyed it though. I would consider this an option for a revisit.

I split it with the Mr and he said tasted a little bit like dirt (you know, that beet earthiness lol). But I thought pretty tasty. On the pricey side but filled with goodness so worth it. Next had the breakfast sandwich with plenty of creamy avocado...pretty good addition!

It sounds like a good deal that I got all that (except for the bacon), but there wasn't one thing that was good. The over easy eggs were not over easy, the potatoes tasted like grease and some were not cooked. The fruit was sour and some pieces were hard. I asked for bacon and I tried to eat it but it was so shiny and greasy I couldn't stomach it. I ended up eating the eggs and the piece of toast. Not worth, the $40+ we spent.

A little far from us but a really good meal!…read more We live about 45 minutes from Star so getting to Rare Steakhouse was a bit of a drive but it was so yummy! The funny thing is, we were actually on the other end of the street for dessert and decided we needed something savory for dinner (not just ice cream). So, we wandered on over to Rare Steakhouse. The atmosphere is somehow both very laid back and Idaho-upscale. If you know, you know. The staff was incredibly friendly and we were tucked into a corner where we could watch the Boise State game on TV. No major appetizers on this trip but I did ask for my clam chowder to come out first. And ya'll...this is the best clam chowder I've had in the area. I honestly was not expecting to like it as much as I did. Highly recommend! My husband and I shared the prime rib and it was also very tasty--and a good cut, too! Easily enough for both of us with a few yummy potato sides. The only reason for knocking it down a star... The water was kind of weird. Our waitress assured us it was triple-filtered but it had an off-putting taste to me. If we're ever in the area again, I'd honestly probably bring a water bottle. Nonetheless, the food was the star and that's the most important thing.
