Best part was the tortilla, the tortillas are handmade and delish. The fish was cooked well, standard tilapia or something similar, which isn't my favorite, but no complaints on preparation. Really liked the cabbage toppings and it was full of them. Ordered the pupusas later, I liked it (a tad greasy), kid likes the stuff back home much better, but a filling lunch for $15 you can't beat. It's 3 for $15, we had beans and a loroco and a jalapeno. Kid had the tacos - steak and chicken and really liked them. Better price than Despo's, better tortillas, but not a restaurant like Despo's and closes earlier. Service was super friendly.

Thai food is never my favorite, but I will eat it. It was a gal in our vacation group's birthday…read moreand she loves Thai, so we found this little gem on Yelp based on the good reviews. The secret is clearly out, because even for an early dinner in the off season there was about a 30 minute wait. They offered us wine while we waited which took the edge off. There were seven of us and they seated us at a table that was probably too small, but it was better than continuing to wait. The dining room inside is small, and there is also outdoor seating, but I overheard people complaining about bugs outside. I was happy to be crowded inside rather than bugged outside. We were told the dishes tend to be small and to order plenty, so we did. With the small table it was a little awkward to place and pass everything, but we managed. We ordered a lot of dishes (see photos, though I still think I missed a few). The standouts for me were the dumplings and the noodles.

Rickshaw is super popular with the local Ketchum crowd, and for good reason. Located downtown just…read moreoff the main drag it's an easy walk from just about anywhere in town or from one of the many bus stops. This SE Asian-fusion restaurant is small and there's frequently a wait, but they offer outside seating and have a few spots at the bar which is where we sat. Plan ahead and enjoy the fresh, mountain air while you wait. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable and made great recommendations . Most of the dishes are tapas-style, small plates. Great for sharing and trying a number of things. We had the cucumbers, chili oil noodles, Andrea's potstickers, Korean Fried Chicken (aka KFC) and green curry chicken. Everything was original, served at the appropriate temp and, of course, delish. I wouldn't have minded a little more heat but each dish had lots of flavor. I appreciated that there were some vegan/vegetarian options. Our server said they are happy to sub tofu in for chicken or other protein whenever possible. We've been staying at the Sun Valley Lodge for a few days which is great, but I appreciate that Rickshaw offers world class food in reasonable portions at fair prices. With a glass of wine and two mocktails our dinner was only a little more than our poolside lunch at the lodge (one sandwich and two drinks). We're coming back to Sun Valley next month with family. Rickshaw is on our short list of places to eat.

This experience was freaking awesome. We were within feet of Britt for our whole meal. We made reservations for the Chef counter and got to watch Chef Britt run the kitchen.... And it was amazing!! The menu changes monthly, the food is delicious!!!! We got two appetizers, two entrees, two desserts, and we each had a couple drinks. The bill wasn't as bad as we thought it was going to be....

Everyone was pleasant, our waitress Michelle was awesome suggesting great options for our meal and drinks....

What a disappointment. After reading glowing praise in national food magazines, I was genuinely…read moreexcited to treat my moms to a special birthday dinner here. Both of them are chefs, so I'm very intentional about choosing restaurants for occasions like this. Based on everything we had read, we expected an exceptional experience. The smoked bread arrived first. It was interesting -- subtly smoky and intriguing -- and it made us curious about what would follow, though slightly cautious about how heavily smoke might feature in the meal. Unfortunately, when the Brussels sprouts were served, our excitement quickly faded. The first bite was overwhelmingly smoky to the point that it tasted like an ashtray. They were simply inedible. We politely shared this feedback with the manager, whose response was surprising: "Yes, a couple people have mentioned that tonight." That was the extent of it. There was no offer to replace the dish, remove it from the bill, or extend any gesture of hospitality. At this price point, I expect both culinary excellence and attentive service. The remainder of the meal was underwhelming and did little to recover the experience. We were seated next to the chef's counter and noticed that the owner/chef kept her back to the guests the entire evening, interacting only to hand over plates. For a restaurant that positions itself as elevated and experiential, the lack of warmth was striking. Overall, the evening felt cold -- both in hospitality and in execution. Sadly, it did not live up to the reputation. There are many wonderful, welcoming restaurants in Ketchum that deliver both excellent food and genuine hospitality. I would recommend exploring those instead.
