    Such a great experience! We got to go in the pen with the goats and chickens. Lisa and Ron are the sweetest. Gave us such a fun tour. I highly recommend!!

    We arrived at 11:00 am just after they opened. Nice ambiance, quiet music, and Melannie, the…read moreserver, was at our table quickly asking for a drink order. We had a free appetizer coupon and ordered the Texas Tonion. For entrees he ordered a 12 oz New York strip steak with baked potato and salad and I ordered the 10oz salmon that comes with seasoned rice, a baked potato, and salad. Fresh bread and butter was served, also. The Texas Tonion arrived quickly: hot and delicious. NOT GREASY! I prefer ranch dressing rather than the dip provided and Melannie brought it quickly. The salads were out fast. Tasty. The entrees were delivered long enough after the appetizer and salads so we didn't feel rushed. NICE! I don't enjoy starting an app or salad only to have my hot entree placed in front of me. Good timing here! So, that being said, my potato was warm not hot. His potato was hot and a little dry. His steak was delicious, seasoned nicely without an overabundance of salt, and cooked medium rare as he asked. My salmon was perfect. Again not overly salted but perfectly seasoned. The rice was good. It was a very enjoyable lunch. The atmosphere is conducive for conversation; we didn't have to yell over the music to be heard. Melannie was very attentive, checking back frequently, and brought another soda before I needed to ask. The only other cons, hence the 4 stars, is that my menu was filthy. I asked for a clean one and the hostess found 2 more that were dirty before handing me a clean one. Also, his fork had food stuck to it and my steak knife was greasy before I used it. I was so busy I forgot to take pics of the entrees. Sorry! They looked good. Take my word for it.

We…read morestarted with the warm bread and butter (always a win) and ordered the stuffed mushrooms to share. I had a margarita, Caesar salad, and the filet with a loaded baked potato. The bread and salad being included with the meal was a nice touch. Service was very friendly and our food came out surprisingly fast, especially considering how busy it was. The restaurant was very clean, with western-style décor and low lighting inside, which I personally prefer. There's also plenty of parking. Overall, a solid experience. I'd definitely recommend LongHorn Steakhouse for all ages. Great steaks, and plenty of options for people who don't want steak too.

    Came here for the first time since moving to the Valley. We had been to TRs in other states. We…read moreknew it was popular so we got there when they opened at 3 pm. Despite being a Tuesday, the place got busy, very quickly. The ambiance is casual steakhouse, with wood tables and booths. It is a good sized restaurant. We were part of the first group to arrive, but it still took about 5 minutes to be seated. They tried to put us at a table for two, but my wife very nicely asked if we could move to a bigger table, and the hostess was nice enough to allow it. I could see why TR is popular: you can get a steak at a very reasonable price. They have a M-TH special up until 5 pm. $12 for one of the listed entrees, including the two sides. I had already looked at the menu before we came and my choice was on the list: a 6-oz sirloin steak. My wife got the 12-oz ribeye, still only $24. We both got salads and I got the green beans. We both got sauteed mushrooms on top of our meat and the three shrimp added to our entree. You pay $4 for the shrimp; I was surprised to learn that they charge $2.29 for the sauteed mushrooms. I must have missed that. Still, if I had to do it over, I'd still get the mushrooms. They were great. The meat was grilled perfectly, the salads had croutons, cheese, a hard boiled egg, and tomatoes. Yummy. The green beans had a nice flavor, with bacon bits added to them, but they were mushy and in a juice that wasn't really to my liking. Of course, the complimentary buns and honey butter are to die for. Our server was Brooklyn. She was very nice and attentive, frequently asking us if we needed anything else. Our water glasses were not refilled. We did feel a light pressure to not linger at the table. Nothing overt, just subtle. Maybe I imagined it. Overall, the service was great. All in all, a very nice experience. We will be back.

    Everything started out exactly as expected. The food was great. The rolls disappeared before I…read morecould pretend I was only having one. Our waitress was awesome. Then it was time to pay with those little tabletop computers...because apparently we've decided that customers should also work the register. That's when things took a turn. Ursula from the little mermaid was the "neighboring waitress", who by the way has the personally of a sock drawer, and was all inconvenienced that the iPads got switched around and I paid for the wrong meal. I mean, it's literally your job to bring me the food and then bring me the check. And now it's a complete meltdown - almost as if i asked her to tear down the restaurant and rebuilt it while I watched. Competed joke. Shelia, or Shayla or something like that was her name. I didn't love her. But I love the rolls. So soft. So buttery. So amazing. Ursula was not that. If we get her as a waitress, I will absolutely ask for another or to be moved, or maybe just get it to go. It's literally not worth watching her have a complete meltdown because the technology didn't work and she has to actually do her job.... Maybe work at a gas station, or Walmart? Or Dairy Queen. The expectations are much lower there.

    I knew Natural Grocers when they were Vitamin Cottage. If you visit, you can faintly see the…read moreVitamin Cottage logo to the left of the Natural Grocers sign on the outside. Natural Grocers was the OG. Before Whole Foods, Sprouts, and before the Boise Cooperative, it was Natural Grocers. It's a great story, look it up and read about Margaret and Phillip Islely, their $200 bucks, and their dream. I've visited several times, and while it may still have a following, it gets lost in the ever-expanding sections of your traditional grocers. It wasn't long ago, that you would NOT see vegan cheese in the cheese aisle, or plant-based meats in the meat section, but now they are there, whether it's something you eat or not. The vegetable and fruit section is smaller than the Co-Op at the Village but sometimes it's good to have a second chance. The vitamin section as well as the community hang-out section to the right when you walk in should not be missed. One thing that often gets missed is that some shoppers see these grocers as vegan or vegetarian. While it's true that they stock vegan and vegetarian items, they also have organic meats and meat products. If you're looking for organic, grass-fed meats and such, check out Natural Grocers TIP1: Check out their website as it has a bountiful amount of information about Sustainability, Deals, Recipes, Events, and more. Natural Grocers is located on Milwaukee in Boise, across from the Home Depot, and is open most nights until 8:30 pm excluding Sundays.

It has everything I need and then the fun nutrition isles are my dessert for my visit... my reward. I must say, try to practice being disciplined or else you'll end up spending way too much money on really cool things or food. Be good to your body, shop here. (Or don't and that gives me more wiggle room.) (Tons of parking, friendly staff, and fun community room! You can use the meeting space for non-profit meetings (check their website for details), and demonstrations!)
