    Updated HH menu 7/2026
    Carolyn R.

    Tonight a group of 16 met for an early dinner and reserved the Merlo room well in advance. While the setting is beautiful, I will not recommend this room for a large group. The room absorbed no sound whatsoever, and I felt like I was at a concert trying to hold a conversation. Service was pretty good, although as someone who drinks a lot of water, there was no one refilling my water, I had to ask and I had to wait, but I get not being a priority when drinks will get them $12+ each. Dining as a group definitely creates a longer experience, from first drink orders, to apps, entrees and then the dreaded checks if you are splitting. Be prepared to wait a while. The food within our group was overwhelmingly so delicious! One guest ordered a ribeye med-well and it was served to him med-rare. Quite a difference. Food temps and doneness seems to be a continuing struggle for these cooks. Do they have a meat thermometer? Other than that, food was pretty amazing and had beautiful presentation. The women's restroom leaves a lot to be desired. Only 2 very generic stalls, 2 sinks when I feel the restaurant is a good size. As an upscale place, there was nowhere to primp make up or hair, no shelf, additional mirror or a place to set a purse. Do your business, wash your hands and get out was the feeling. Although I will not dismiss this very lovely restaurant, I don't think personally I will be back. I will have to lean on "there are so many other choices" excuse.

    Forgot to take photos of the food!! But here's the receipt!

    4/21/26- 4.5* walked in with our work attire on and even though it is a fancier restraunt, nobody seemed to mind. Our waiter was Robin and she was awesome! She was there for our drinks, waters, appetizers, and entrees with no wait and didn't miss a beat. She served all four of us on four different tickets with no confusion and it was very impressive! I'll speak on my order only as majority thought I had the best meal of the night. I got the surf n turf which was a 8 oz Waygu teriyaki top sirloin with 3 tempura prawns with coconut sauce and mashed potato. I asked for medium and it was perfect red center and the teriyaki sauce on top was perfect and all the guys agreed. The prawns are the same prawns as the appetizer just 3 with the plate, but the coconut sauce was great! Creamy and coconuty! Mashed potatoes were really good no complaints, soft and not buttery but still tasty. The guys I was with got the vanilla bean crembrule and the chocolate lava cake and there was nothing left so that tells you how good both were! I'm usually on top of it for photos but forgot this time and only have receipt as proof, looks like I'll just have to go back.

    Ambiance!

    Nice, steak and seafood restaurant. Food: 4/5. The drink options are great. I had the surf and turf, which was as expected. The coconut sauce for the shrimp is delicious! The meats tend to be a little less cooked than requested. The mashed potatoes were just ok. I really loved the Thai Noodle salad. Spicy and delicious! We got the cheesecake to go which was Oreo and it was pretty good for to go. Service: 5/5. Our server was really great. Friendly, quick, and knowledgeable. Environment: 4.5/5. I really enjoy the inside of the restaurant. It's a clean, warm vibe. There is a patio that looks really nice as well, however it is right next to the very busy Eagle road.

    Outside, very modern restaurant, I love the fire places outside and inside.

    Got to dine in today and Land Ocean didn't disappoint! It's a beautiful, modern restaurant, the bar is set in the middle with comfortable couch sections to sit around and some tables for different types of parties. Beautiful fire lamps around the restaurant, inside and outside. Our server Jaqueline was very attentive and helpful, she took great care of us. The food was excellent. The steak was delicious and tender and the burger was very flavorful. We had salads and clam chowder as well. The lava cake was delicious! My husband enjoyed his Pinot Noir. Definitely recommend!

    Non Local here! I come from Nevada and it's really difficult to find a place that has delicious food and great service combined! When you enter, you can see the entire dining room. I love the open concept. The decor is beautifully modern and has a warm aesthetic. The server we had was awesome! She enjoyed telling her stories and was friendly at doing so. Now theeee food. Well, I ordered the filet mignon, medium rare. Which was made to perfection! It came with double baked mashed potatoes, asparagus and sautéed mushrooms. When I say this was so good, it was sooooo good. The mushrooms were amazing! I shared the mignon with my brother because it was close to 7-6oz. It was larger than most mignon and that is ok! Last but not least, I saved room for dessert. I enjoyed their lava cake! Sweet and yummy! When I return to Boise. I will definitely be back! Thank you!

    We were in town celebrating a milestone birthday for my mom and Land Ocean turned out to be the perfect place for a special dinner, even on a very busy Friday night. Our server, Chris, was fantastic from the moment we sat down. He had our drinks out quickly. Appetizers arrived at just the right time, he perfectly paced our meal. We shared the calamari, crab cakes and poke tacos at our table. All of the apps were good. The crab cakes seemed to be everyone's favorite though. They were generously packed with crab and finished with a beautifully crisp exterior. Both the crab cakes and calamari had the same spicy aioli which everyone enjoyed. Since we were celebrating, I had the Land Ocean which consisted of a petite filet and lobster tail with bearnaise and asparagus. My mom had the same plate but with the twice baked potato. She raved about her meal. Seeing her enjoy her birthday meal made the night even more memorable. Chris surprised our table with a birthday dessert, a thoughtful touch. We ended the meal by sharing a tasty creme brulee. Land Ocean helped make my mom's birthday dinner truly special, and we were grateful for the warm service and excellent food.

    Teriyaki Wagyu Sirloin
    Kristin G.

    Starting with the ambiance when you walked in the door, to our server Robin who was spectacular; friendly, personable, and knowledgeable, we had an incredible experience! One of the specials was Swordfish and I've had the Chilean Sea Bass before and loved it, so it was a hard decision. Robin provided the details needed for me to decide on the Swordfish, which did not disappoint! The coconut rice with a very light mango sauce topped with a cucumber slaw elevated this swordfish in ways only a 5-star chef would know how to do. My husband had the Teriyaki Wagyu Sirloin and it was cooked perfectly. We completed our meal with a stellar dessert. We leaned on Robin once more as all the desserts sounded wonderful. Her recommendation was the seasonal cheesecake which was a Cafe Latte flavor. Oh My Goodness! Soooo delicious. Treat yourself... you won't regret it.

    Creamy Blue Cheese Dip

    I was expecting better especially since I had my bosses in town. While we didn't have a reservation for a Monday we were made to feel like we needed one. We sat in the back and a view of the entire restaurant and perhaps I was mistaken. Land & Ocean is an upscale seafood and steakhouse yet it didn't look like one. I'm not sure what it looked like. Very odd interior design choices. Our waterboy seemed to like he was fresh off a hit of wacky lettuce and server Gabe while pleasant seemed to be distracted. I was expecting more seafood and steak options but there seems to be more sandwiches and burgers on the menu If L&O is going state that they have a dedicated vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free menus and go through the motions to get it and then come back say "  we have the impossible patty "  that's not a dedicated vegan, vegetarian or gluten free menu but rather disingenuous. The seat mates burger was not made properly and cheese was left off of another dish. Which brings me to the blue cheese dip. It's not blue but green. I've have eaten blue cheese from France and from several well know companies here in the NW. I'm not sure what L@O did to the blue cheese but I do know they ruined it. The French bread appetizer is a joke. Here's a pro tip. Work with ACME or Gastons's bakery for real French bread. All in all. I was very disappointed not only for me but for out of town visitors.

    Happy Hour Wellingtons
    Danielle B.

    We have been coming here since they first opened and have never been disappointed. All of the food has been delicious and cooked perfectly. Their land and ocean was amazing. The steak is melt in your mouth tender, the chicken is cooked prefect with amazing seasonings, the cheesy bread.. so so good. I tried the beef wellington happy hour appetizer. The pastry was light and puffy, meat was tender and the sauces brought the dish together. Everyone has always been very polite and the decor is relaxing. They make very well balanced drinks. My favorite, so far, is the coconut monitor. Safe to say we like coming here and look forward to do so.

The food is always good, fresh, and satisfying, and it's a nice casual place to grab breakfast or brunch. The service is great ! My only complaint is the flies! There always seem to be quite a few flying around, and sometimes you feel like you have to fight them for your food. LOL! I really wish they could find a way to get that under control because it definitely takes away from the dining experience. Other than that, we enjoy coming here. Good food, good brunch spot, and clearly we like it because we keep coming back!

This place is phenomenal and seriously one of the best breakfast places in all of Idaho. I hesitate to say that because there can definitely be a wait because of its popularity, but facts are facts. My wife and I went to Moe Joe's for breakfast recently and man was it good. I ordered the chicken fried steak and was stunned at the amount of food. Where to start. The steak was incredibly tender and enormous. The homemade biscuit was flaky and perfectly baked. The sausage gravy was meaty and flavorful. And the crispy hashbrowns seemed to cover half the plate. Then there are the house-made jellies. Who does that and how can I get more! The service was prompt and friendly with a great wait staff that made everything easy. The vibe of the restaurant is "friendly neighborhood spot" and feels like home. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. These folks know how to do breakfast right and I cannot wait to go back.

(I mean, some of it is greasy and the syrup is gloopy and a bit nasty-- it's better if it's warm-- but overall the food is good). So before I tell you the BIG issue at Joe Momma's, let me first set the scene. JM's looks like a misty mountain cabin come to life. River rock and pinecone and foliage lanterns greet you as you walk up ... log walls and a massive stone fireplace whisper of times gone by as you enter, and hens adorn the dark wood walls. You could easily picture the Fellowship of the Ring sitting in a booth across from you. It's truly charming. So what's the problem with Joe Momma's? The music! It's AWFUL and completely bizarre given the atmosphere of the restaurant. But hey, if blasted mid-2000's Rihanna and Katy Perry songs on a loop (we counted more than 4) is your idea of a good time at 8:30am on a Saturday morning in a log cabin, then you'll love it. I have a feeling Samwise and Frodo would not though and neither did we. The music is loud, very loud. And sounds more like an LA radio station playing Pop's Top Hits from 19 years ago. Which would be okay, I guess, if the energy of the restaurant matched it-- you know, modern architecture, crisp lines, sleek furniture and color design-- think Snooze in Scottsdale, Az which is basically a breakfast night club. But alas, Joe Momma's is beloved because of the misty mountain feel. The upscale Cracker Barrel vibe. The charming, rustic beauty. And the abrasive, bad pop music ruins the whole thing. It's is truly so freaking weird! Maybe they could keep the Pop for the lunch rush, but PLEASE Joe Momma's, for the love of Frodo, leave breakfast alone and come up with a playlist that matches your beloved establishment!!

They got lemonade and orange juice while waiting for my husband and I to arrive. After we got settled in, an apple juice and cold brew was ordered. My husband's juice got dropped off first. It did take a minute for my cold brew to arrive. I got a sugar free vanilla cold brew with some half and half on the side. I don't know who is in charge of making their cold brew but what I got was not cold brew. The coloring had no depth or richness to it. It looked like a very watered down americano. Cold brew is rich in color and bold in flavor. Colorful and bold was not this drink. I usually add a few portions of half and half to cut the bitterness of the coffee but I needed only 2 for my watered down mess. So, for 4 bucks or so, it was not worth it thier version of a cold brew For brunch I got the Omni omelet with peasant potatoes. My husband got a cinnamon roll to start and pancake sammy. The kids also got the country fried steak and the lobster Benny. For my daughter and I, we both got a side of country gravy for our potatoes. My husband and I started off with the cinnamon roll. It was heavily topped with frosting which was great! The cinnamon roll was good but you can tell it was not fresh. After being spoiled by local bakeries in town that sell fresh cinny rolls, you know when they aren't fresh. And that's the situation in this case. The texture of the cinny roll was not fluffy and airy. My omelet was good. It was loaded with all the goodies inside. The potatoes were lacking color to them. It looked like a pile of semi seasoned steamed potatoes. I got a little ramekin of gravy. Probably the smallest portion of country gravy I have ever been given. These ramekins are used for ketchup or pancake syrup so to have my side of gravy be served in this was humorous. My husband's pancake sandwich was not a sandwich. It was two huge plate size pancakes with bacon and eggs on top. I guess when you have a description of pancake sandwich that doesn't look like a sandwich, it will throw your customers off. We received our bill and as usual, I looked over the check. I know there's a charge for country gravy, it's like paying for any other extra. Please tell me why a small portion of country gravy at this joint is 2.50?!? The ramekins used are 2 Oz. It holds that much pancake syrup. Mind you, with a denser fluid like country gravy, it's more like 1.7ish oz of gravy. Like what!?! So, 5 bucks for less than 4 oz of gravy is what y'all charge for gravy. I asked the hostess about the charge and of course she directed me to a manager, as she should. The manager needed a hug and a smile. Before even having any type of interaction with her, she looked miserable walking through out the dining area. So you can only imagine how happy she looked when she approached our table to talk to me. She told us the following. "You are charged for the first portion of gravy. But if you want a second portion, it's complimentary." Well, why not give the customer the full amount of what they are paying for? So I'm paying for half of what I'm getting? Why was I not informed about this so called complimentary portion? Our server did not tell us nothing about this complimentary side. So basically, you're ripping customers off with these small side charges. Not letting your guests know about this invisible complimentary secondary portion. Mind you, you were going to make 5 bucks off of less than 4 oz of gravy. That 5 bucks increases the percentage of the servers tip and you're profiting off of gravy which is pennies to make. You add that to as many tables through the day, week, month and year.... I can only imagine how much extra your business is gaining. After the manager was so kind of admit that she was wrong about having two portions of gravy being charged, I would advise her to get her info correct before coming at a guest. I have been in the food industry way too long to have any kind of bs thrown my way. Our server never filled up my nephew's lemonade. Was gone for long periods of time. Honestly, it was busy but it's never that busy to check up on your guests, to make sure their drinks are filled and that they are OK. So, for almost 90 dollars, I believe it was not worth having brunch here today.

The eggs were actually poached perfectly. Seriously, my mouth is watering just reflecting on the food. The toasted single ciabatta is something that I liked versus a couple English muffins. The smoked ham a tad salty but paired with the hollandaise very well. Ripe tomatoes. The greens for a side was my choice versus potatoes. I'll have to try the potatoes next time because this day was going to be hot and smokey, so I needed to keep it light. I drink coffee black, and the coffee was really good. On the service, as some have complained about, I can't really speak to that. I went in before work, so I was there at 7. By the time I left at 7:45, two more tables came in and one had already left. 9 or 10am on a Sunday is probably different. So the service was good for me. The decor was an updated nautical theme that I seen before. A few decades ago, I went to a First Watch in a land far away. When it was brought to the Boise area, I thought it would be interesting to have that seasonal approach option compared to fixed menu Cisco approach. And if you're good with a standard pancake, maple flavored syrup, a couple slices of bacon, and two plain scrambled eggs - do that. If you like something interesting, First Watch.

This proved to be the best breakfast experience we've had in years. Before you question this - we'll start with the service. Our server was cheerful, knowledgeable and just a pleasure to speak with. She listened to my friend, who wanted a fancy coffee, and made him a s'mores coffee that wasn't too sweet but very flavorful. My friend ordered an omelette, which was outstanding on its own. But it didn't come close to being on the same level as the breakfast enchiladas. The red sauce was flavorful and paired so well with the cheese and egg filling. And the hash browns are coarsely grated fresh potatoes with the perfect crust. Honestly, I was a little sad when the meal was over. I'm sure everything on the menu is great - but do yourself a favor and get the breakfast enchiladas. You will not be disappointed. It's probably a good thing we don't live nearby - or I'd need a gym membership because I'd be eating here at least 3x a week.

    THE CHICKEN AND WAFFLES WERE AN ABSOLUTE DISGRACE! I've been eating breakfast longer than some of…read morethese cooks have been alive, and I can assure you this wasn't it. It tasted like something a 10-year-old could throw together after watching one cooking video online. I could've stayed home, saved my money, and made a better breakfast in my slippers! Now, I'll give credit where it's due--the service was lovely. Bless those workers. But then they sat us at a table covered in onions! ONIONS! There were onions all over the table, and to top it off, my chair was sprinkled with onions too. I came for breakfast, not to marinate like a pot roast. Needless to say, not a breakfast place I'd choose again.

I'm not really in favor of having to give your cell phone number to feed into their app so you know when your table is ready, but there you have it. The inside is pretty cool if you are into that "converted warehouse" feel of exposed beam crossed with a country kitchen feel. Tables aren't crammed together, definitely a sense of space. There are booth options as well. And as I prefer, no TVs. There were 2 groups of 14 that were served during our visit, so they can definitely accommodate larger parties. Our server rarely checked in, took 10 minutes to refill coffee after we requested a top off (she forgot), and never ended up refilling out water. The coffee we did get was good though. As always, I'm a hollandaise connoisseur as the foundation for perfect Benedict - my go to breakfast item. So I asked for a sample before I ordered, and I'm glad I did. The Griddle's hollandaise was curious. It was clearly about 25-50% powdered mix (which tastes like nasty beef gravy) with the balance being added clarified butter and a very strong dose of lemon. It was marginal, but good enough. So, I went with the crab cake Benedict. The crab cakes were a bit "fishy," so the strong lemon flavor was a plus. After flagging down our server, I requested a new poached egg as one of them arrived hard boiled. (I want runny yolks as hard boiled are too chalky for my taste.) The replacement egg was delivered very quickly. My guest had the banana Texas french toast special with added bacon and scrambled eggs. Bacon was nice and thick, nicely cooked. Scrambled eggs are pretty much just that. The french toast did have great body to it, but I'm not a huge banana fan. Still enjoyed it though. I would consider this an option for a revisit.

The place just opened and we had a lovely patio booth. We had a fantastic meal here! I ordered the flat iron steak salad, and my partner got the Cuz I'm a Cowboy Baby 1/2 # kobe burger. Both the steak and the burger meat were cooked to absolute perfection (a true medium rare). The lettuce and veggies in the salad were incredibly fresh and crisp, and it was tossed in a delicious, Greek-style dressing that complimented the dish perfectly. My husbands burger was topped with a cheesy fried tatertot and his onion rings were perfectly finished; the batter didnt slip off when taking a bite. I think the price was very fair for this filling luch. ​Our server, Sara, was wonderful--attentive, friendly, and great at her job. Highly recommend!

Then they didn't have any more of the syrup to make more. We ordered chips and guacamole, but the guacamole looked like there was just random stuff thrown into it, and sadly it was flavorless. The main dishes were okay. I ordered a sandwich and the meat was really full, but again, flavorless. I was so disappointed after really looking forward to a meal here. The wait staff tucked us in a corner and it felt like they forgot about us for the most part. We were asked how things were when we ordered or food was delivered to the table. The next time we saw them was for the bill. Sadly we won't be back.
