    It was a busy Sunday morning, and Lakefront Bar & Grill was packed! Thankfully, we didn't have to…read morewait long before being seated. The restaurant is in a beautiful location right by the lake and golf course, making it a great spot to enjoy a meal while visiting Cascade. Everyone working seemed genuinely happy, friendly, and helpful. The restaurant was clean and bright, and our order was taken quickly. We enjoyed our cocktails while we waited--mimosas with just a teeny-tiny splash of OJ and a Bloody Mary. No complaints here; they were made perfectly! The food didn't disappoint either. My friend and I shared the steak sandwich, while our husbands ordered breakfast dishes. The steak was cooked perfectly to medium-well, and we opted for the sweet potato fries, which came out hot and delicious. I would definitely visit Lakefront Bar & Grill again the next time we're in Cascade!

    The desk clerk at our hotel recommended this restaurant. It was a Monday, and they are closed on…read moreMondays. So, we came tonight, Tuesday, at about 6:15. The place was very busy, and there was a wait. However, their system for handling new arrivals was disorganized. An older woman stood at a counter, and everyone lined up behind her. But, she never said anything, chatting with an employee, and no employees took charge. I walked to a register and was given a buzzer. Other people came after us, and also lined up behind this woman. Confusing and annoying. We waited about 15-20 minutes, and were seated. This was the only part of our experience that was good; a view of the lake. We waited close to 10 minutes, and our server came over, a young woman named Kiley. All of the servers were hustling, and I suspect they had too many tables. So, while she was doing her best, we received only average service. My wife being the generous, compassionate person that she is, we still tipped her 20%. The food was the worst part. We both had the surf and turf, an 8 oz sirloin steak and four jumbo shrimp. It comes with soup or salad (we chose salad) and two sides (we had a baked potato and fruit. Our salad and entree came out at the same time, which is a first world problem. Still, salads usually come out first and I prefer it that way. The baked potato was good, as was the salad. On the other hand, I was looking forward to grilled shrimp and these were breaded. Bummer. The fruit was like a canned fruit cocktail. Really? And the absolute worst: the steak. We asked for medium. It was dry, tough, and chewy. Essentially inedible, though I tried, but ultimately left a good portion uneaten. My wife did the same. This was the fourth place we ate at since arriving yesterday morning, and the only true disappointment. I'm not counting the hotel breakfast because you know what those complimentary breakfasts are like. No high expectations there. It is very possible that on a different day we might get good food and service. But, we'll never know.

I love the vibes of the restaurant, and it's awesome that there's an outdoor deck to sit on too. First of all, the food is great! I haven't had a bad bite at Two Rivers. During both visits, my family had the pork chop, and both times it was amazing. So juicy and tender! The prime rib is also delicious, and I love the fresh grated horseradish. The halibut was amazing as well, and the marion berry cobbler was awesome. The crust was perfect, and the filling was not too sweet. Top it off with a scoop of ice cream, and our meal was perfection. Like I said, not a bad bite! The service was really great both times, and the owners are so nice! I'm not in the area often, but I'm so glad we made a special trip to eat at Two Rivers Grill again!

Both had a good taste. The jelly sauce for the prawns was interesting. Kinda wished it was a cocktail sauce. Starters came out really quick. The sourdough bread was good. My ribeye had a good taste to it. A little tough to cut but a good portion. Offered dessert but did not try. Price was surprisingly a little on the high side. Would return again.

    Ever hear of Keep It Simple Stupid... They have it down pat. Small menu so you won't spend ten…read moreminutes agonizing over what to have. Burgers are generally one of two kinds, A smoosh burger eschews vegetables and is lots of meat and cheese sometimes with grilled onions and bacon. The second type is a crunch burger with pickles, lettuce, tomatoes and onions, usually all cut on the thick side. Think of a very basic salad on a bun that they tossed a patty and cheese on almost as an afterthought, it crunches and makes noise as you eat it. I am definitely in the crunch burger camp, so weight everything else accordingly. This is definitely a smoosh burger place, their main burger, available in single, double or cripple, is meat, cheese, and bacon forward. I asked for pickles, lettuce, tomatoes and onions on mine and the cook is obviously not a crunch burger fan as they were there but sparse. Lettuce is shredded, onions are thinly cut. This said, I did notice something, there was essentially zero Mallard Reaction on the patties. If you do steak, pretty much any meat, Mallard Reaction is when the surface browns and you develop that wonderful flavor. This would have ben a much better smoosh burger with that sear on it. The french fries are closer to what anyone who has traveled to Europe would call Frites... this is a VERY good thing! Not sure how they prep their fries here, but frites are typically half fried, pulled out, go back in the freezer, and are finished later. This given a very crisp exterior, but a center that is very soft and moist, delightful! I have never met a person that dislikes fries like this. This method also leaves the little surface bumps as seen in the picture. So... Good smosh burger but maybe ask for it well done so you get the browning Just okay when turned into a crunch burger unless you are very clear about wanting lots of veggies. Heavenly fries (frites) Yes they have fry sauce, its to the left of the counter in the mini fridge Coke beverages Yes I will be back... for anther try at a crunch burger!

I could not have been more impressed with the food, probably the best German style Schnitzel I've ever had! The cutlet was pounded perfectly thin with a fantastic breading that was crisp and perfectly seasoned. The Spaetzle was perfect, can't wait to try the other varieties on the menu. We had Oma's almond cake, which was as light as a feather with flavors of nutmeg and cinnamon, it was perfection. Tante Emma is coming to downtown Boise this fall, and I can't wait to become on of their regulars. There are few German offerings in the Treasure Valley, and as a person of German heritage, I crave the food. I can't wait to introduce them to my in-laws who are also German. The place is cute as well, and offers great German wines and Beers. Don't miss the pretzel, it comes with three different dipping sauces and was hands down the best damn German pretzel Ive ever had, perfectly hot right out of the oven and delicious.
