    Poutine. The gravy was rich and the cheese curds amazing! Everyone dove in before I could take a pic it was that good. Highly recommend!

    We ordered Fish & Chips, The Reuben and Poutine for and appetizer. The service was was perfect. The food was well presented and the flavors amazing. The Reuben was great but could use more pastrami stuffed in there. Worth getting none the less. The fish & chips were fantastic. I cannot wait to come back here. The service was perfect and friendly. We had a great experience. The vibe of the restaurant checks all the boxes to feel like an authentic Irish Pub. You won't be disappointed coming here.

    Great place to come to eat or drink. Atmosphere was great and gave you the Irish vibes. Truth be told I must have come in a t a perfect time as they were playing Flogging Molly and Drop Kick Murphy in the background. The red ale in house was really good, and the corn beef cabbage dish was absolutely spectacular. Definitely one of my favorite spots I come to when here in Idaho falls for business. Staff has always been great here and always making sure you have everything you need. Great place to come too.

    First timer tip: it's a seat yourself establishment. They would be wise to install a sign. This is a dining jewel located in downtown Idaho falls. It's located in a beautiful old building with stunning stained glass windows and a lovely Celtic carved bar. The food is delicious. We had the cottage pie and the bacon jalapeño Mac and cheese. We don't drink, but the bar appeared very well stocked. They also have several mocktails available. Our server was also excellent and kept our drinks filled. If you want a delectable meal in a moody old world atmosphere, look no further!

    Fun location in downtown Idaho falls. Super friendly service and great authentic food . Parking can be a little tricky , so read the road signs.

    I came here for drinks and squeezed into a seat at the bar. As the name suggests this is an Irish pub and there are themes of four leaf clovers and some of the workers wearing kilts. I ordered the Big D's negroni ($10) and the bartender realized after he started making the drink that they did not have campari, so he subbed it with an orange liqueur. The funny thing was that a little bit later I was looking at the spirits and spotted the campari in the back but couldn't at first because my seat was right behind the taps and they were blocking my view. I pointed it out to the bartender and he remade the drink which was good. I also ordered the jalapeno peach margarita ($10) which was your typical margarita with a slight kick. Overall this is a decent watering hole.

    A major move in 2021 to Idaho Falls gives me the ability to explore new businesses. It is exciting for me to be able to review these offerings on Yelp. This place is wonderful and full of comfort food. We've enjoyed many of their offerings and all have been well prepared, tasty, seasoned well, and good portion size. To start with their beer selection is overwhelming. It takes me about ten minutes to read the offerings and try to imagine their taste before deciding what I'm in the mood to enjoy. Once that has been settled I can turn my mind to food. And the list is long. The happy hour sliders are a good choice to enjoy with truffle fries. We order our Wagyu slider rare and they try to oblige. We've enjoyed their cottage pie, their Ruben, and others I can't remember at this time. It's become a gathering place for us in Idaho Falls. I have only had good meals at this restaurant. It's why I continue to dine here. And they are dog friendly in the summer. They have an outdoor seating area where we can let our dog enjoy snacks on her snuffle mat while we eat a meal. It's a win/win for our family.

    IDAHO FALLS DINING VARIETY CHALLENGE: Having recently moved here from Boise, we realize the variety of dining opportunities could be smaller. We hope to show there are many 4-5 star restaurants of various cuisines to be enjoyed as we experience them ourselves. IRISH PUB - We've been to the Celt multiple times in 2021, as it is simply a comfortable place to go with good beer. We've enjoyed corned beef & cabbage, shepherd's pie, sausage charcuterie, fish & chips, reubens, corned beef sandwiches, wagu sliders, and did I say beer? The service is friendly and usually prompt. We also have sat outside quite a few times, as having a one year old pup makes that necessary - but she's welcome to be there. We can't say we've been there during their live music times, but they sound quite interesting and we hope to be at some of them soon. We think the Celt is "great".

    We were in Idaho Falls for a concert at the new local event center. I am vegetarian while my husband is not, and we often struggle to find vegetarian-friendly eateries. I had the hummus plate which was very tasty and came with a generous helping of hummus, veggies and crackers. Hubby had the fish and chips, which was cooked perfectly. The décor was fun to look at, with all the soccer banners and other Irish memorabilia. Humungous bar with what seemed like hundreds of bottles. There were several nooks that had tables and comfy chairs. Soccer banners hang from the ceiling and were right above us, but appeared to have dust on them, so that was icky and I prayed that a gust of wind didn't blow while we ate! Our wait person was friendly, smiley and attentive. The bartender seemed to have a regular sour puss, but maybe he has resting bartender face, I dunno. The bar, and the rest of Idaho Falls downtown area, seems to have had a very generous amount of money invested and the result is beautiful. We would definitely return to this charming establishment. Agree with another poster that parking is a bit difficult. We lucked out and found a street spot across the main street in the shade.

    Food was OK, not bad or great, server was ontop of things on a busy Saturday night. Go for the atmosphere and a good black and tan.

    I really like their Irish menu. The corned beef hash is always a win here. I've liked almost everything. I've tried here.

We walked in to a live band of jazz and felt like we had been taken back in time. Soiled Dove in Idaho Falls is a hidden gem for those craving hearty comfort food with a Western twist. Nestled in a cozy, rustic space adorned with vintage decor and warm lighting, this spot feels like a cross between a frontier saloon and a modern eatery--ideal for casual dinners, date nights, or post-adventure refueling. Perfect for a date night or just an out of town get away like we had. The drinks are ANOTHER LEVEL. I was boring with a smokey old fashion that left my hair smelling amazing the next morning. The man on my arm got a soiled dove #2 and it was tasty if you like a lot of sweetness. We met someone outside the place named Shawn who was a local there and he said the food was life changing. His go to: the meat balls and feta salad. Shout out to the boss babe who clearly either owned or lead the establishment. Total Sicilian Mob Boss vibes. You inspire me, Sis. From your outfits to the way you carry yourself, you are it girlfriend! Your staff made us feel at home and the security was tight. We will be back next Sturgis trip.

    Let's start with the service. It's 10/10 every single time. The food incredible. The drinks even…read morebetter. Great place for a date night or to bring friends. We love it here.
