Great Food! Stopped by on our way to another destination to watch the game. Amazing drinks! Had Key Lime Dream and was one of the best cocktails I've ever had and I'm from Portland where there's some great drinks. The chef makes good fish and chips and tartar sauce along with yummy falafel not in run-of-the-mill balls but patties full of flavor and moist. Stopped here you won't be disappointed read more

Who doesn't love watching college football and eating some good food! We had the soup of the moment (loaded potatoe) as well as the French dip sandwich and classic burger. All good! read more

My friend and I stopped there for lunch last Saturday and it was so great. The ambience is casual, but the food was wonderful. We ordered the Bang Bang Shrimp which was a great starter. The sauce was excellent and the shrimp was cooked to perfection. We had the Salmon BLT which was a terrific choice. The salmon was cooked exactly as it should be and the bacon was thick, but crispy. Our server was very good and we didn't have to wait long for our drinks or food. Give it a try! I don't think you'll be disappointed. read more

Needed a night out while staying in a vacation rental over the holidays, and glad we found this spot. Our friends had been here before, and it definitely has a more upscale vibe compared to the other local joints if that's what you're looking for. Service was good, we were seated and served quickly. We ordered: drinks - marshmallow old fashioned, regular old fashioned, lemon drop martini, and a huckleberry mule; apps - truffle fries and fried pickles; entrees - cheesesteak w/ chips, French dip w/ garlic fries, and Mac and cheese. Everything was super tasty, least favorite were the pickles which was a bummer - I expected dill but I think they were the sweet kind. Nice place in a small town, we'll definitely be back next year! read more

Passing through Cascade for the night, my wife and I were craving something local--but with standout flavor. Palooza did NOT disappoint. We rolled in on a Friday night after battling the Boise traffic, and were greeted and seated right away. That's when we met Jeff, it felt like reconnecting with an old friend. Friendly, welcoming, and clearly passionate about the menu. At his suggestion, we both ordered the grilled peach, prosciutto, burrata, and honey sandwich. I mean... who doesn't love the magic of sweet seasonal peaches, salty prosciutto, creamy burrata, and a honey drizzle to bring it all together? HOLY $#!+--it was next-level good. We were so glad we didn't split one! And the homemade potato chips? Crispy, perfectly salted, and absolutely addictive. Another treat you won't want to share--but probably should (if you're feeling generous). We finished with the warm salted chocolate chip cookie and ice cream. That perfect hit of salt elevated the rich, melty chocolate in all the right ways. It was the kind of dessert you don't want to share--but somehow still do. If you're anywhere near Cascade and want real food made by people who get how flavors should work together--GO HERE. You'll leave full, happy, and already planning your return. read more

Our waitress was awesome, she was always asking how we were doing. The ribeye was cooked to perfection and the sides were very tasty! Love this place, very clean and the interior very inviting. My new favorite place to eat when we come up to our cabin. read more

The food was good. The place is well spaced out and decorated nicely. The service was slow from wait staff to food getting out. The owner and cook put good effort into this place though and are willing to work at the establishment. Always a plus in my book. Overall 4 stars. Could be a star 5 if portions were a little larger for the cost or cost is just slightly less for the amount. Overall, I'd go back and try it again on occasion. read more

We love Palooza! Our son can't get enough of the buttered noodles and pretzels. The food is outstanding for such a little town.

You need to go here and have a Rueben! I've eaten Ruben's across the country and the food here is so far above anything else! The ambience, service, etc is top shelf. I also had an espresso that was perfection. The owner is such a nice, down to earth guy. We definitely enjoyed this lunch! read more

Excellent service, both Janelle and Gwen are so warm, welcoming and attentive. The food was amazing especially their Asparagus Soup and Pesto Chicken Sandwich . The ambiance was cool, more upscale and interesting. We will be back, as this restaurant is one of , if not the best we've found in Cascade. read more

Amazing eatery! This is not your normal restaurant. This is what all restaurants should strive to be. The craft beer was amazing! We had their Jalapeño beer. I was throughly impressed! The food here is stellar. The cheesesteak was tasty as was their 1/2 pound Blue Burger. The house chips were made to perfection. This is one of the best restaurants I've eaten at in Idaho. We drove up from Nampa to rent snowmobiles. After a day on the snow, this was the perfect ending to a great day. The service was tops in its class. The server's were extremely friendly and attentive to what we needed before we even asked for it. I 100% recommend that everyone gives this place a try. It's the best meal I've had at a restaurant in Idaho in a very long time. read more

Dinner at Palooza last evening was amazing. My steak was seasoned and cooked to perfection. The side dishes were a perfect match. Only problem was I couldn't eat it all. The service could not have been any better, the server was so friendly and was there checking often to see if she could help with anything more. I highly recommend this restaurant with no hesitation at all. read more

we waited to be seated for 15 minutes. Some locals came in 10 minutes after we did and got seated right away. we left and will never go back. read more

French onion soup was a lot of onions. No cheese on top. Broth was pretty good. Probably wouldn't have again. Cheesesteak sandwich was ok maybe a little dry. Better when dipped in soup Waitress and service was great! read more

Definitely a favorite spot when we come to town. Great food, great drinks, very cool ambiance and super friendly staff! You won't be disappointed! read more

This restaurant doesn't Welcome local Cascadians. I heard them state they are hoping to serve Donnelly or McCall people passing through Cascade. We experienced way Over priced food, too long wait for service 45 minutes and miss represented food items Don't order Huckleberry cobbler- it's apple cobbler with one or two huckleberries in it! Their 1/2 chicken is 1/2 of a very small Cornish game hen, barely an appetizer! read more

Really enjoy how refreshing Palooza is, a real gem in the small town of Cascade. Food is good, service is great.

Crazy kids here. Good beer and food. Stopped by on the way to Donnelly and glad we did. read more

I'm a local, I love Palooza. Please give them a chance. They have great food & a great bar! Jeff is putting all of his efforts into this beautiful community, he just wants a chance to show us why he chose our beautiful little Cascade to open his restaurant. Let's face it, we need options. I thank Jeff for taking a chance on us! read more

The Food was amazing! The gluten free bread was delicious. The service was fantastic. The owner was so awesome! The fries were great! I can't wait to go for our anniversary. I would love to stay at their bootcamp suites. read more

We were on a girls trip to the area, and we had a terrific time at Palooza's! There were 6 of us, and we all enjoyed our yummy food, terrific drinks, and the friendliness of the owner. Will definitely return when we are in town in the future! read more

Wow! What a wonderful find. Was here for a weekend adventure and while browsing through the small town I found this gem. What wonderful staff and they offer amazing mouthwatering specials. The owner was a pleasure to talk with about fishing and about the town! Everyone was so friendly and felt welcomed. Ended up having a great time at a music event over Labor Day weekend! I highly recommend going to this restaurant and if you have the opportunity to stay I would because I wish I did! read more

Ate here with a large group. The service and meals were excellent. I highly recommend the seabass. It was cooked and seasoned perfectly! The steak eaters cleaned off their plates read more

This restaurant is conveniently located on the main drag in Cascade. It's a cozy place with hard tables and chairs and an open seating area. Lots of echoing noise. Service was good, not great, and I liked my dish, but my family did not care for theirs. My wife had a salad that was just mediocre, two of my sons had the barbecue pulled pork and it was OK, the fries were really good, the brussels sprout appetizers was pretty good, and my other son had the fish and chips which she said we're good. We couldn't help but have a sickening feeling when only 24 hours after we visited we received a message that our credit card had been stolen. We hadn't used it anywhere in the past three or four days so we had an uneasy feeling here. We did end up returning on our way back down to the valley and used our new credit card, but we were very careful not to hand it to anybody in any business. Overall, it was very expensive for an OK meal. We had the opportunity after these two visits to return, bringing our out-of-town guests here as well, and we chose against it. I think our lunch, three sandwich, plates with fries, a fish and chips plate, and a salad, came to about 140 something dollars for a family of five. read more

Delicious! This hidden gem is right off the highway in Cascade. With a fabulous menu, that has something for everyone. I really enjoyed the Ruben with fries. The service was great and the space roomy and local. Highly recommended. read more

Modest assortment of beers on tap that seem to change regularly. My wife and I shared the bison meatloaf that came with mashed potatoes and asparagus. Delicious. We were there around 5p on a Monday and had no wait to get seated. Service was a bit slow but we were in not hurry. I think they are needing more wait staff‍ Prices reasonable for food quality and portion size. read more

Excellent tacos today for Cinco de mayo. Always good food and the service was good. The assorted Margheritas were great

Stopped in for lunch and met the owner Jeff, and what an AWESOME experience! The vibe was great, complete with a beer tap fountain - so cool! Our server Veronica was very attentive, and the kind of person to help you clean up when you're crying over a spilled Pilsner, and then she'll bring you a new one;) the food was EXCELLENT, highly recommend the taco trio/margarita pairing, and the poke nachos were fabulous! Also do yourself a favor and try the huckleberry vodka mule, a perfect choice on a sunny day! All in all a wonderful experience, highly recommend! read more

Food taste great but the service is poor and the drinks are the shortest pour I've ever had. Went back a second time to see if the drinks pour the first time was an anomaly- unfortunately it wasn't. Out of most of the specials by 7, took forever to get my drink, forgot to bring me water-after asking. Took ten minutes to get her attention to get me my check. Bummer. Could be a regular stop but won't be. read more

We normally really like this place but the service was awful and our order was wrong so we didn't get our food until after everyone was done eating and they still charged us 20% gratuity because we had 6 people (2 of which were kids) we won't go back read more

Great food. I had the salad with candied nuts, fried goat cheese and a delicious dressing. My partner had the pulled pork sandwich. We didn't have any drinks because it was lunch time, but the bar looked fully stocked and would definitely go back for dinner to enjoy a beer or cocktail with our food. The service was also fast and friendly. read more

Terrific spot and best restaurant in Cascade hands down. We stop here every trip to Cascade and McCall. Delicious food, great decor and spotless. We always look forward to it. They serve everything from burgers to upscale entree's at reasonable prices. They also have a nice little wine selection. You can get a good bottle of wine without feeling like you're being gouged. The Stoller Chardonnay was $30. a fair price! Jeff, the owner and chef always makes our visits special, taking the time out of his busy restaurant responsibilities to have a few minutes to chat. His staff is always attentive and friendly. I can't recommend this spot enough, the food, ambiance, and the feeling that you are visiting a friend always keeps us coming back. read more

We sat outside in perfect weather. The menu was varied and the food delicious. We had the homemade gnocchi and apple crisp. Chef /owner Jeff was warm and friendly, great find! read more
