    We're passing through town on a road trip and stopped here for an anniversary dinner. The food was amazing. Beautiful views. A little too cold to sit on the deck. Had a great time with excellent service.

    We ate on the patio and had a great view of the Snake River and Golf Course. I had the Quail which was exquisite and my wife had the King Salmon which she raved about, although she wished she had some vegetables with it. Service was good, but could have been better. We felt our waiter had too many tables to take care off as he wasn't as attentive as we would have like.

    I had the filet and melt in your mouth delicious. My partner half the Thai noodle salad and was equally impressed. My cocktail and also the red wine was perfect! We were able to dine out on the patio and the view was awesome. This is a “do not miss “ restaurant in Twin Falls.

    Ordered the Flat Iron steak and baked potato. Potato was OK but the steak was stringy with little charring. Should have stuck to fish and chips or house salad or burger.
