    Ham and Chzzzz

    Stopped into Lemontree for a quick lunch to go. Walked in and it was not busy yet which was nice! I will be able to get in and out. Ordered the sausage and pear salad without the sausage. Hung out for a bit and my order was ready. My salad was beautiful! I got a huge container of fresh greens. It was garnished with a hearty amount of goat cheese and pear. I appreciate that they give me a good amount of salad dressing. My salad mix was so fresh. The greens were so crisp. The goat cheese was buttery and added a creaminess to the salad. The pear was perfectly ripe. It wasn't too soft or too hard. The salad dressing was sweet and was a nice addition to the salad. I was surprised at how much came in my bowl. I ate at it a couple times and still have half left over. Going down the menu list and I have enjoyed everything so far. I love that they use fresh and clean ingredients. Looking forward to coming back and trying other items off their menu.

    Lemon Tree makes a good sandwich. Located right downtown the sandwiches have decent bread. The service was quick and the staff will bring your order to the table. I enjoyed the soup which is one option for a side and you still get a full sandwich. I recommend you sit outside on a warm day and enjoy the ambiance. This is more upscale than some of the large chains which I appreciated.

    Loved this little corner breakfast, lunch and afternoon pick me up spot in downtown Boise. The staff welcome you in and it feels comfortable immediately. **The Lemon Tree Company **eatery is two stories. You order as you enter and can choose seats downstairs or better yet upstairs. While second floor requires taking the stairs is is like being in a loft at a friend place. Multiple tables with views of the street (and the first floor) that is a quieter area than downstairs. Restrooms for customers are by the kitchen under the stairs. The whole restaurant is Intimate, cozy, casual, trendy and fun. Perfect to meet family and/or friends and enjoy good, unique creations. The food was Divine! I came because I heard about the pear & sausage sandwich, various lemonades and Lemosas. Those menu items alone are worth checking out. The Pear and Sausage sandwich is a combination that I would never make or order until now but it was so tasty! The fennel jam and pear vinaigrette, fresh pear & sausage pieces with mixed greens were so delish. Every bite was enjoyable. We all wanted the tomato basil soup but it was out already at lunch. The Peruvian sandwich was good as well especially for meat lovers. The Lemosa is a must try drink. Just pick a lemonade and they add Brut sparkling wine. The different types of lemonades were so fun and fruity. Everything we got was consumed and enjoyed. You have to try this if you are in downtown Boise before 4pm

    Had lunch and saw an employee texting and making sandwiches - it's disgusting. Not to mention the floor had gloves and is filthy in this photo. Sad to see this place spiral cause I left 5 stars a few years ago. I'm disappointed in you Lemon Tree Co.

    Very cool little spot in downtown Boise. Order from the blackboard at the counter and leave a name. There is a nice room upstairs that has tables, tunes, and toasty warm temps on a cold day. I had the half sandwich (Rueben )with a can of seltzer and a beet and goat cheese salad. The half sandwich is really a whole! It's big and comes on a sizable roll. The beet salad is tasty. The menu overall is unique in its offerings and definitely not "classics " in the deli circle, but it suits them well.

    Lemon Tree....a hot spot among millennial hipsters that love the odd fig jelly and uncommon greens on their Sammy. Looking for a solid deli sandwich? Well this ain't it. Want a standard tastey samich that doesn't leave you guessing what it was you just processed in your mouth hole? Ya, not it. However, these are delicious lunch structures filled with not so common cuts and complimentary condiments. Sweet, salty, savory they got it goin on at lemon tree. The bread is artesian of course. Is it the kind of sandwich this manly man usually wants? No....but I think that's okay you know? Because it's still very good. Not in a Gen X slap your mama with my callused hand sort of way. But more of a gentle Gen Z, I hardly have the grip strength to hold this sandwich together so I'll structure it in a way to help you....kind of way. It's good. You should go try it. Just don't let it change who you are and eat up Boise.

    Turkey Boursin Sandwich
    Briannah R.

    Kind of on the fence about this one! I really enjoyed the strawberry basil lemonade. I had the "boursin" sandwich and I'm not sure which part of the sandwich played to my downfall but I did have an allergic reaction (allergic to peanuts - did make mention of it, but there's always a risk for cross-contamination since their menu does contain PB&J). The service was pretty speedy and the cashier had some great suggestions for me as a first-time guest. There were a lot of people sitting outside, inside was pretty bare just the staff and people waiting for their orders/Ubereats, but it's a pretty trendy/cute spot.

    I would actually give 3.5 stars for my experience, but I erred toward 3, rather than 4. The restaurant is cute and the staff was friendly. The food came out at a reasonable wait. There are many vegan and vegetarian options on the menu, in addition to "omnivore" options. Creative sandwiches where you read the ingredients and think, "I wonder what that tastes like together." I should have ordered one of these creations. The sandwiches are LARGE, served on ciabatta bread and with a small side salad, soup or chips. They're $15+. You can also order a half sandwich (I recommend, unless you're sharing, starving or taking the other half home for later), but this option is $16-18 and comes with a drink of your choice. I ordered the turkey Boursin both because it sounded good and because it was a favorite. I am a fan of Boursin, but had to keep reminding myself it wasn't goat cheese on the sandwich. (I'm also a fan of goat cheese. I just didn't like the combo here.) the sandwich was dry and lacking in the interesting flavor combo I was hoping for. I got the beet salad on the side and, although it was good, the greens were past their prime, so I didn't eat much of it. My daughter got the mushroom artichoke sandwich, which she really enjoyed and my husband got the Peruvian, which he reported was delicious. So, it could have just been that I made an unfortunate choice. If you're looking for a more basic turkey sandwich, get the turkey Boursin. I would still recommend giving this place a try. Maybe I'll come back sometime and try something else. However,

    Strawberry basil lemonade
    Heidi A.

    It's a very cute place and felt like the food is relatively healthy! The staff was friendly. I enjoyed the strawberry basil lemonade and the side salad that came with it. The sandwich wasn't bad but I'd rather have a different one. If I ever go back to this place, I'll try something else. I also thought it was interesting they didn't have any coffee there.

    It says it's wheelchair accessible but it seems that there's a step into the restaurant. How accessible are we really talking here?

    The lower floor and patio is accessible for wheel chairs. Upstairs dinning is not.

    The place looked pretty decent for a pub-style restaurant serving food and beer. Met James, who was…read morethe morning bartender. He was very informative about where to go and places to check out in Boise. I ordered one of the local beers and their flagship meal, the Santa Maria Tri Tip Sandwich. As you can see by looking at the photos, the tri-tip was cooked to perfection. It had tomatoes, poblano, and chimichurri sauce on it to add to the flavors of the tri-tip. The bread consistency was great, not too soggy, and with a great crispy texture. I wish they had spread the tri-tip out more to make sure every bite was being celebrated. I also ordered the mac and cheese as the side per the instructions of the bartender, James. Let me say that was one of the best mac and cheeses that I have ever had. Truly amazing creamy texture and full of rich flavor. Everything melted in your mouth. Definitely worth it. I eventually ended up talking to a fellow bar sitter, and he ended up being the co-owner of the place, TJ. He also filled me in on the places to go and, most definitely, the places to travel to, to experience great beer. He was refreshing to talk to since most people don't have the passion for beer that we both represent. I would highly recommend this place for the staff that is there the solid pub style restaurant that they have created. Super easy and relaxed kinda of place.

I came here for a late lunch around 2 pm after arriving in Boise. They weren't crowded at this point but business wasn't dead either. My waitress was very friendly. Inside has a lived-in, intimate feel, but it was pretty dark, so much that I wasn't sure they were actually open as I was opening the door. I had the French dip sandwich with a side of tomato basil soup. The sandwich was delicious and tasted homemade in the best way. The "meat" of the sandwich was seitan. I don't THINK it was a perfect meat replica (but I've never had a real French dip), but it was very flavourful. I loved the flavour and the thick cut of their bread, but it didn't have much structure and fell apart easily as I was eating which made the sandwich very messy. The tomato basil soup was a little different. It was slightly creamy but brothy and a little chunky - not a smooth puree. Again, it tasted great and was nice and light, which was a good contrast to the very rich sandwich. It was a little slow, especially considering they weren't that busy. I didn't really mind since I wasn't on a schedule, but this is something to be aware of - don't come here for a quick meal. Not cheap, but worth it for the quality.

The next day when we were departing, she offered it to me for my drive home. The service was ok, it wasn't the friendliest. Prices were a little steep. If I lived nearby, I would come back and give another try.

The service was fast, as we didn't wait the full 45 minutes before being seated. Upon walking in you see an upscale modern atmosphere, and date night ambiance. I felt underdressed as usual in my shorts, but was welcomed nonetheless. We ordered the potato fingerlings, because when in Boise you order potatoes. However I wasn't much of a fan, tasted more like grocery store potato wedges. The other appetizer was the meatballs, which is served with a garlic bread I wish I had an entire loaf of. It was really good and though it seems small it was good enough when cut up, maybe it could've done with 1 more meatball and definitely some more bread. For dinner the kid had a half cheese half crispy pepperoni pizza, which of course he didn't like, not like the chain pizza shops he's used to but I had some and it was delicious. He did like the crust, and still ate a couple sliced. I shared a half Bronco, half Honey Badger pizza with the missus. Everything was good, but the honey badger's grilled onions overwhelmed the taste. My favorite was the Bronco which our California transplant server recommended. It had a nice spice to it that hits the back of your throat just enough to wake you up but not enough to have you reaching for a drink. I already recommended this place to friends that live in the area. That's this critic's review, until next time, I'll be eating.
