I'm never disappointed when I go to the lemon tree! Ordered online and got our sandwiches relatively quick(they were busy). Today we got the sausage and pear sandwich which is a little on the sweeter side, and the Peruvian, which is more on the savory side. Both sandwiches were delicious! We opted for the half sandwich and we picked the lemon tree salad as our side. The lemon vinaigrette is so good! If you're downtown on a lunch date this is the perfect spot! read more

I was looking for a vegetarian sandwich. The menu had lots of interesting options which made it hard to choose. I went with the massaman curry banh mi. It was pretty good but not like any banh mi I've had at all. No pickled veggies and the sandwich bread was a far cry from a banh mi baguette. Great bread though! I just thought the name was very misleading and it would've been better to just call it a massaman curry sandwich. I really liked the spiced yam slices, but I felt like the peanut butter almost overpowered the yam sometimes. Could've been lighter on the PB. I ordered the combo meal which was supposed to be a 1/2 sandwich plus a side. If the sandwich portion I got was only a half, then the full size must be huge. I kind of suspect I got a full sandwich. I had the beet salad for my side. It was tasty and fresh, and also pretty sizeable. The staff were friendly and enthusiastic. The wait time for food was reasonable given that they seemed busy. The loft seating was nice. read more

Lemon Tree - Massaman curry banh mi + beet salad - Sandwiches Near Me - Boise, Idaho

Stopped into Lemontree for a quick lunch to go. Walked in and it was not busy yet which was nice! I will be able to get in and out. Ordered the sausage and pear salad without the sausage. Hung out for a bit and my order was ready. My salad was beautiful! I got a huge container of fresh greens. It was garnished with a hearty amount of goat cheese and pear. I appreciate that they give me a good amount of salad dressing. My salad mix was so fresh. The greens were so crisp. The goat cheese was buttery and added a creaminess to the salad. The pear was perfectly ripe. It wasn't too soft or too hard. The salad dressing was sweet and was a nice addition to the salad. I was surprised at how much came in my bowl. I ate at it a couple times and still have half left over. Going down the menu list and I have enjoyed everything so far. I love that they use fresh and clean ingredients. Looking forward to coming back and trying other items off their menu. read more

The Peruvian was to die for.. I was skeptical.. fritos on a sandwich? But my goodness.. the sandwich was delicious! The side beet salad was delicious & the raspberry limeaid in the little clear pop can was delicious as well ( & cute presentation). I am definitely getting this one again. read more

Lemon Tree makes a good sandwich. Located right downtown the sandwiches have decent bread. The service was quick and the staff will bring your order to the table. I enjoyed the soup which is one option for a side and you still get a full sandwich. I recommend you sit outside on a warm day and enjoy the ambiance. This is more upscale than some of the large chains which I appreciated. read more

Loved this little corner breakfast, lunch and afternoon pick me up spot in downtown Boise. The staff welcome you in and it feels comfortable immediately. **The Lemon Tree Company **eatery is two stories. You order as you enter and can choose seats downstairs or better yet upstairs. While second floor requires taking the stairs is is like being in a loft at a friend place. Multiple tables with views of the street (and the first floor) that is a quieter area than downstairs. Restrooms for customers are by the kitchen under the stairs. The whole restaurant is Intimate, cozy, casual, trendy and fun. Perfect to meet family and/or friends and enjoy good, unique creations. The food was Divine! I came because I heard about the pear & sausage sandwich, various lemonades and Lemosas. Those menu items alone are worth checking out. The Pear and Sausage sandwich is a combination that I would never make or order until now but it was so tasty! The fennel jam and pear vinaigrette, fresh pear & sausage pieces with mixed greens were so delish. Every bite was enjoyable. We all wanted the tomato basil soup but it was out already at lunch. The Peruvian sandwich was good as well especially for meat lovers. The Lemosa is a must try drink. Just pick a lemonade and they add Brut sparkling wine. The different types of lemonades were so fun and fruity. Everything we got was consumed and enjoyed. You have to try this if you are in downtown Boise before 4pm read more

We ended up here by accident since next door was packed and waiting list was 45 minutes. They got us right in and served. The 4 star rating was because the food was cold. We could have sent it all back but we were rather hungry. The place was upbeat and fun. I would return. read more

Very cool little spot in downtown Boise. Order from the blackboard at the counter and leave a name. There is a nice room upstairs that has tables, tunes, and toasty warm temps on a cold day. I had the half sandwich (Rueben )with a can of seltzer and a beet and goat cheese salad. The half sandwich is really a whole! It's big and comes on a sizable roll. The beet salad is tasty. The menu overall is unique in its offerings and definitely not "classics " in the deli circle, but it suits them well. read more

Lemon Tree....a hot spot among millennial hipsters that love the odd fig jelly and uncommon greens on their Sammy. Looking for a solid deli sandwich? Well this ain't it. Want a standard tastey samich that doesn't leave you guessing what it was you just processed in your mouth hole? Ya, not it. However, these are delicious lunch structures filled with not so common cuts and complimentary condiments. Sweet, salty, savory they got it goin on at lemon tree. The bread is artesian of course. Is it the kind of sandwich this manly man usually wants? No....but I think that's okay you know? Because it's still very good. Not in a Gen X slap your mama with my callused hand sort of way. But more of a gentle Gen Z, I hardly have the grip strength to hold this sandwich together so I'll structure it in a way to help you....kind of way. It's good. You should go try it. Just don't let it change who you are and eat up Boise. read more

Amazing delicious sandwiches! Such creative and tasty options. Can't wait to go back!

Kind of on the fence about this one! I really enjoyed the strawberry basil lemonade. I had the "boursin" sandwich and I'm not sure which part of the sandwich played to my downfall but I did have an allergic reaction (allergic to peanuts - did make mention of it, but there's always a risk for cross-contamination since their menu does contain PB&J). The service was pretty speedy and the cashier had some great suggestions for me as a first-time guest. There were a lot of people sitting outside, inside was pretty bare just the staff and people waiting for their orders/Ubereats, but it's a pretty trendy/cute spot. read more

Lemon Tree - Turkey Boursin Sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - Boise, Idaho

See all

I would actually give 3.5 stars for my experience, but I erred toward 3, rather than 4. The restaurant is cute and the staff was friendly. The food came out at a reasonable wait. There are many vegan and vegetarian options on the menu, in addition to "omnivore" options. Creative sandwiches where you read the ingredients and think, "I wonder what that tastes like together." I should have ordered one of these creations. The sandwiches are LARGE, served on ciabatta bread and with a small side salad, soup or chips. They're $15+. You can also order a half sandwich (I recommend, unless you're sharing, starving or taking the other half home for later), but this option is $16-18 and comes with a drink of your choice. I ordered the turkey Boursin both because it sounded good and because it was a favorite. I am a fan of Boursin, but had to keep reminding myself it wasn't goat cheese on the sandwich. (I'm also a fan of goat cheese. I just didn't like the combo here.) the sandwich was dry and lacking in the interesting flavor combo I was hoping for. I got the beet salad on the side and, although it was good, the greens were past their prime, so I didn't eat much of it. My daughter got the mushroom artichoke sandwich, which she really enjoyed and my husband got the Peruvian, which he reported was delicious. So, it could have just been that I made an unfortunate choice. If you're looking for a more basic turkey sandwich, get the turkey Boursin. I would still recommend giving this place a try. Maybe I'll come back sometime and try something else. However, read more

Post hike one of my favorite things to enjoy is a nice sandwich so definitely had to try Lemon Tree! It was bookmarked so quickly after reading a lot of Yelp reviews and articles of places to eat in when in Boise. It was an easy decision to make but we totally forgot the weekend lunch rush. Luckily it wasn't too long of a wait but they have a compact space with some seating on the main floor and upstairs but during rush it can be pretty sparse. We were lucky to catch a group leaving and got their table outside so we were able to escape from the cold. For the meal we ended up getting their well loved turkey boursin, cup of soup, and prickly pear lemonade. I really enjoyed the sandwich with the in house boursin cheese and the cherry spread was a unique touch to your classic turkey. The bread was wonderful as well and everything held well together. With the extra bread I was able to dip it in their tomato bisque and it was yummy. The bisque itself was smooth and the perfect side to the sandwich. Lemonade is always a treat but it was great to find prickly pear! Whenever I see it on a menu I tend to try it since I love it so much. If you're not feeling prickly pear be sure to check out their lemonade menu as well. read more

An absolute gem here in Idaho. Came here a couple of weeks ago for the first time. Not originally from here, but their sandwiches are FIRE. It's an absolutely amazing sandwich spot filled with great vibes and tasty food. I, also highly recommend getting the lemonade if you ever get the chance because it's very tart and sweet. As for what we got from the menu, we got the PB&JJB w/ tomato soup ($12) and Peruvian sandwich w/ chips ($14.50). Overall, I would say we were highly satisfied with our meal and for what we paid for. The staff also made our experience much more enjoyable. read more

Lemon Tree - Salami artichoke salad - Sandwiches Near Me - Boise, Idaho

This place was definitely a hit. There are so many vegetarian and vegan options. Even some meat options. I'm not a vegetarian or a vegan myself, but it is great to have the options to not eat meat. The sandwich itself was so yummy. I got the bahn mi. The peanut butter sauce really made the sandwich stellar. The tomato soup had texture to it. I am not a fan of super smooth tomato soup. I actually really don't like tomato soup at all, but this was really good and I'd get it again. I would come back and try all of the other non meat sandwiches. I might come back once a month or so. If you don't get the half sandwich and soup, the sandwich itself it really big. So it can feed two people. I also got the prickly pear lemonade. My only complaint about that is that I didn't get enough of it. Now, a huge negative is that one of the guys making the food come over and helped on the register. He had his gloves on and didn't change them touching the screen. Working good service you are supposed to change your gloves any time you touch something else. I hope that that is seen and That they are more cognizant of that. read more

Lemon Tree - Massaman Curry Banh Mi Sandwich and Creamy Tomato-Basil Soup - Sandwiches Near Me - Boise, Idaho

I've been venturing to Lemon Tree for some time now and I'm always impressed with how delicious they can make a vegan sandwich taste. As Boise's premier spot for artisan sandwiches, I have high expectations which they continuously exceed, more so with every visit! The sandwiches are definitely one-of-a-kind. You won't find anything else like it in BOI! During my most recent trip I enjoyed the wonderful Massaman Curry Banh Mi (roasted yams, spicy house made peanut butter sauce, cucumber, jalapeños, pickled carrot, daikon radish, spicy curry aioli and cilantro, $12.99). I will shamefully admit that I am one of those individuals whose taste buds turn away from most menu items that presents as *vegan.* Not sure why, it just doesn't appeal to me! However, I wasn't in the mood for meat, and I had a gift card so I thought, "Okay, let's give it a try." If you're a meat lover, this may not be the 'wich for you. But I would recommend it to anyone looking for a great sandwich. First off, the bread is absolutely amazing. Each bite delivered a satisfying crunch it was like music to my ears. The yams, wow, were delicious! Soft and tender, it paired so well with the crunchy bread. The house made PB sauce provided a sweet kick, and the curry aioli plus jalapeños sent my tastebuds straight to heaven. What an awesome freaking combo. I'm so excited to try some of their other sandwiches. I think I have my eyes on the Toasted Fluffernutter next. If anyone's given that a try I'd love to know what you thought. Can't seem to find many reviews on it here. read more

While traveling to Boise I was desperate for a sandwich. Found this place on Yelp and am so glad I popped in! They have such a unique menu and I found it hard to choose. I got the sausage and artichoke sandwich with the vegan tomato soup. Both were delicious but I realized after that they had a half and half which would have been the perfect portion... I only ate half of each because they were so big! I also got a prickly pear lemonade, which was so refreshing. Would definitely go back to try other items. read more

I found this place on Yelp, and the reviews were very encouraging. But when Boise CM StaciLei recommended it too, I had to try it, and I was not disappointed. I ordered a Massaman Curry Bahn Mi with a Lemon Tree salad on the side, and a strawberry-basil Lemosa, what a trio! The bread, which is 80% of any sandwich was fresh, crunchy outside and soft inside. The combination of the smooth peanut butter and heat of hot green peppers is what makes this sandwich. The Lemon Tree salad was great, loved the caramelized onions and walnuts, and the Lemosa was very refreshing. I definitely recommend this place. read more

I live out of state but travel here a bunch on business and make it a point to grab lunch or an early dinner here each time. Love the food so unexpectedly good. Was kind of put off by the "healthy food" kind of vibe thinking it was going to be twigs and granola but could not be farther than the truth. Everything is so good slowing eating my way down the menu love the turkey and the peanut butter ohhh and that beet salad - yes beet salad who knew. The only downside is they get really busy and if you don't call ahead you can wait a good amount of time for your food but always seems worth the wait as I munch it down. read more

This is located in downtown Boise. Very cute little spot. Urban decor inside. The menu has lots of wonderful items to choose from. It was difficult to decide because everything sounded great. Everything is freshly made there. My favorite was the sausage and pear sandwich with the lemon tree side salad. The sweet and savory taste went very well together. The portion of the sandwich is very large and I saved half the sandwich for dinner later that night!! The prickly pear lemonade was very sweet. Would be night if there was a little more tartness to it. They have a cute upstairs portion for seating which has large windows to give you a nice view of the city outside. There wasn't a long wait to order or to get the food. So great place for a quick lunch bite. read more
