    What a fun popping place super friendly and the cheese cake is delicious nice to just relax and hang out everyone so super friendly

    What a disappointment. Their "famous Reuben melt" sandwich, made with house-made corned beef, was terrible. The meat was cut thick and was extremely tough and chewy. At one point I had to open up the sandwich to see if there was even any sauerkraut inside. There was, but not enough to even taste it. The bread, a marbled rye, was very good. Just everything else was bad. The fries had zero color to them and were so underdone it was ridiculous. Even their pie left a lot to be desired. The filling was just OK, but look at that underdone crust. The only good thing I can say about this place is that my waitress was cheery and attentive. Good job there.

    SO CUTE!

    The best thing about the Starlite Cafe is the farmhouse local hole in the wall vibe with the oldies but goodies playing on the satellite radio. Not to mention the AMAZING homemade pies! The food was very typical cafe food, and the prices were a little high. 4 out of 5 $$$$. 40$ for 2 meals. Good size proposition. Don't forget about the cozy hometown feel!

    Roadside diner which is "seemingly" in the middle of nowhere...... One of the best burgers I've ever had (rodeo burger)..... Served promptly with a smile and cooked perfectly. What a "find" the Starlite Cafe is ...... You won't be sorry you stopped in. Parking lot filled with locals eating at this terrific restaurant. Great product, fair prices, nice prompt and pleasant service.... In a bit of a "tired" diner setting perhaps, but don't let that stop you.

    Great Burger

    See all

    Updating to note that no grill food is available after 8p. Fryer food only between 8p and 9p. Boo.

    Everything about this cafe is great! Had one of the best BLT's there. Too full to eat dessert, but they looked delicious!

    I had breakfast for lunch and the omelet was great - real people and real food. Great stop between Burns and Ontario.

    If you order anything with gravy it is always cold. We had 3 plates with cold gravy. We later found out the cooks didn't even warm them.

    don't bother ordering ahead for take out. maybe one in ten times their cook will actually look to see in an online order comes in.

    What a cute place to find in the sleepy Saturday night town of Payette!…read more Downtown Payette is what Caldwell once looked like before investors went in and built more businesses. The streets are dark and very few places are open and that makes me sad because this could be such an adorable old town downtown vibe for locals! So don't miss this restaurant towards the end of Main Street and then hop across the street to Hammer Time for family fun with axe throwing! El Kamaron has done a great job with their interior decor, seating layout, has a full bar, and an extensive menu that includes quite a bit of seafood options! It's the Torres Mariscos that sold me on trying this place and it didn't disappoint! This is a menu item that you'd see regularly in a beach town in Mexico like in Nayarit, MX! It was loaded with shrimp, octopus, and crab. I was so excited to just eat the meats that I didn't even want crackers or chips. Just let me feast on the meats with the avocado, cucumber, onion and tomato and I'm in heaven! I'll be back for this item alone! I also ordered a holiday specialty drink called the cranberry Paloma and I loved it. It was beautifully presented with a dehydrated orange slice and floating cranberries with a Chamoy and Tajin rim. I tossed my straw to the side so I could enjoy each sip with the rim! The staff ate so lovely and friendly with smiles and always ask how you're doing and if you need anything! You order at the table but pay at the bar counter closest to the door. There were two birthday celebrations going on and each birthday baby (adults in their 60's) received a cute colorful shot in a champagne flute and the entire restaurant sang to them. It was an enjoyable experience!

    Fried trout appetizer was a good surprise!! Enchilada with rice, refried beans and salad -…read moreexcellently prepared by chef. My wife had chile relleno Enjoyed a Draft Modello and watermelon margarita. All were refreshing and had great taste. Service was fast, friendly and superb while seated at the bar, run by the owner's son. This place has great choice for Mexican cuisine in Treasure valley.
