    The food, the service from Johnny he made the experience of your restaurant real good. The ambience was perfect. I had a really good time and I will definitely come back. Thank you for taking pride in your restaurant it shows.

    Still doing well. Busy restaurant with good service. Cocktail menu is great and a good wine list. Satay appetizer was ok. I like my satay more well done than this. Peanut sauce was delicious. Clam/Oyster app was excellent and the broth was spot on. Everyone liked their entree. Salmon was the highlight. One of our go-to places.

    Look at the hair  My brother is bald, my buddy is blonde, and my hair is not that long...

    Never make yelp reviews but this was one was too much. Service was fantastic. Food... took over an hour and a half. Finally got the food and the burger didn't have fries. To top it off there is a comically large hair in the food. (Picture attached)

    We love coming to this restaurant, they have the best happy hour! Plates are really good and affordable for how much you get. Also they have a patio outside where you can sit down and enjoy the sun while you are having lunch

    Club sandwich

    I have been here twice recently - once on a Saturday afternoon and once on Saturday evening around 7ish. I really like the ambiance of this restaurant as well as the food. Both items I have had - club sandwich and bbq burger have been fantastic. Great quality and taste is excellent. The only thing stopping me from giving this establishment is the service. Service is super friendly, but it's slow. On both occasions, service has been super slow. Takes awhile to get greeted, have drinks served, for food. Again, everything is great it's just slow. It won't stop me from returning, just worth a mention.

    Tavern has always been a special place to me, so it was a no-brainer when picking a place to celebrate with a friend. I was surprised there was no wait when I walked in. Was greeted by a friendly host. The interior has a classy vibe and dimly lit. We were seated by the bar in a booth even though the place was almost empty. Slightly inconvenient as there were plenty of talkative bar patrons and louder music put a damper on table chat. Our server was very nice but infrequently visited the table. Had to ask for water refills and wasn't asked if I wanted another happy hour drink. Ordered the fried chicken sandwich with fries. Friend ordered the bleu cheese burger medium well with veggies. Our food came out relatively quickly, though my sandwich was with my friend's veggies and her burger was with my fries. Easily fixed as we grabbed each burger and switched plates. Unfortunately her burger came out medium rare, which is an issue only because it's difficult for her to eat rarer meats. She could barely make it through half her burger. My sandwich was incredibly over-fried and after two-bites, the sandwich almost completely fell apart. Was pretty disappointed that I barely got any fries. We decided to get some dessert since my friend didn't get to eat all of her meal. The rock-slide brownie sundae was pretty scrumptious, though the berry sauce seems almost out of place. Service was not to the standards I've had before there. Food was mostly mediocre, which was not what I've experienced in the past. Still a place I'll visit just feels like there's some backsliding here?

With its varied menu and delicious happy hour selection this place could be a favorite for a wide variety of the local population. Classy, welcoming with engaging staff. While the selections of taps are diverse and smart for diners, it is the kitchen that is the real star here. We tried the Happy Hour fare (3-5 pm). See the pics for details. We also tried the Kobe sliders, but they fell short of the Chicken Sliders with their tender, juicy cuts of breast. The lineup of drinks are on full display at the bar and with scannable menus. This is a solid place for bringing friends or family for a gathering - yes, like the name suggests "Common". If anyone in your group cannot find a drink and meal to their liking, then you need to replace that person from your social circle or family. 2 hour free parking directly behind the building makes this location much better than the downtown businesses in the liberal ghetto of Boise where they will soon tax the air you breathe. Here, the pricing will not require you to take out a second mortgage as the Boise elites would have you do for eating in their downtown. It is no surprise that more quality dining places are opening in cities like Eagle, Caldwell, Nampa and Meridian where Idahoans can enjoy life.

My mom wanted a burger, specifically a Guacamole Bacon Burger and fries, and we were in the neighborhood, having just left Rave. We went through the drive-thru and placed the order. We were shocked at the total, which came to nearly $17.00, but understood that in this economy and with grocery prices, it was what it was. We arrived at the window and waited, and waited, and waited. I knew that they cooked everything to order, but it felt like an eternity had passed since paying. Finally, the order was ready and we went home. Not only was I disappointed with the burger, but I was upset that what we paid for and the time we spent did not equal what we received. The amount of Guacamole was like a spread, and there was no deft to that burger. For the amount that we paid, that burger should have been loaded. My mom made the most appropriate comment, " Honey, Somebody shrunk my burger!" We won't be back, but at least I have my memories of a time long ago, in which Main Street made delicious burgers made with love and care and stacked with all the fixings just like in my pictures.

Sometimes it can get busy at lunch and there are only so many tables to be had. The menu is short, but they have been delivering great burgers for a long time. Stopped in today and split a burger with the main squeeze. We had the Five Alarm burger. The burgers are 1/3lb and the meat had great flavor. No real heat for us, but some could find it spicy. Pickled jalapenos are hit and miss for heat anyway. Toasted bun and a good amount of toppings on the burger. The onion rings were tasty and fried perfectly. Buying a soda gets you one refill. Plenty of food for two seniors, I think.

He used to frequent this joint when it was off of Fairview so he knew what kind of service and food to expect. It was my first time so I was excited to see what they had to offer. Walking in, the place was bright and clean. I headed to the counter and this sweet gal greeted me. I got my husband his usual which is a grilled ham and cheese sammy. I ordered a bunless double cheeseburger with jalapenos and grilled onions. Of course I got a side of fries and a vanilla shake to go with my husband's sammy. You gotta have fries with a burger! Since I recently got my new kidney, I have to be really careful with utensils, condiments and lids that are communal. I have to be so careful with germs that could possibly be on these common items. I told the sweet gal behind the counter about my new kidney. The gal was sweet and let me grab what I needed out of the boxes behind the counter that no one had access to. I appreciate that she was understanding and kind about my safety. Didn't question it one bit! I got my utensils, ketchup packets and napkins. My burger was so tasty! I was only able to finish half of it. So, next time I will definitely just get a single patty. There was plenty of cheese, jalapenos and grilled onions. The fries were hot, salty and crispy. I did enjoy the soggier fries, the soggy ones are my favorite. The fry sauce and ranch were both great dipping sauces for the fries. My husband did not share one sip of that vanilla shake and he finished the whole thing. I'll take that as a great shake! From the service to the food, everything was great! I appreciate the gal behind the counter for being so kind and considerate about my health needs when she didn't have to. The fries and burger that I had was killer! I say that ranch was some of the best I have had. We are never really on that end of town but if we are, I know where we will be eating! You can never go wrong with a good burger and fries.

    Family run and great bang for the buck. Burger, fries and raspberry shake were great.read more

We were close to the area and we finally were able to visit and I'm sure glad we did. The restaurant is located in a nice shopping center on the corner of Eagle and Overland, immediately on the other side of 84. The location is nestled towards the back of the center and can easily be missed as it's tucked in the corner of a small lot. We were greeted with a huge smile and swift seating to a booth in the larger dining room area. Even though it was barely 11:30 am on a Saturday, the dining room was already filling with hungry customers and the kitchen was notably bustling. We had Kaitlyn as our server. She arrived with a sunny disposition and eagerness to get our orders going. Downside, due to cost, tomatoes are not available. I have to say, that kind of broke my heart a little...tomatoes, in my eyes, are a requirement for every burger. I ordered the Bleu Bacon single burger and hubby had the cheeseburger. We ordered a small fry (1/2 pound) for us to share. Food did take quite a while to come out, but our server did come by several times to check on us, refill drinks, and give us updates (apparently a large to-go order backlogged the kitchen). The burgers came out first. I was a little underwhelmed with the small burger plate and cheese that was obviously cold when added to the burger and had become a tad sweaty from being steamed instead of melted. I had little hope....but then I took my first bite. The Kaiser hamburger bun was soft, burger patty was nicely seasoned and the bleu cheese was punchy without being overwhelming. The bacon sung through. The fries quickly followed. We were surprised by the home cut style, thick and irregular...rustic and perfectly cooked. These suckers are huge. But with every fry, it was crunch-tender on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I really enjoyed our visit, but the place seemed to be a little understaffed. Several tables had plates stacked or cleaning supplies atop the tables. That aside, service was attentive and the food tasted great, even without the tomatoes.

First Observation: This place is filthy, crusty, and gross! There were 2 parties there, 1 party of 4 and 1 party of about 10, (so not busy considering there were 2 servers working) and every other table was filthy. There was food all over the floor and on the tables along with dirty dishes. A bottle of cleaner was left on top of an in cleaned table, which seemed crazy to me. Why would you go to all the trouble of bringing a chemicals out to clean a table and just leave it there? In addition to the less than clean dining area, the restrooms were dirty too. And one final note...maybe servers should consider NOT wearing their PJ's to work. It's just off-putting.
