    Half sandwich!
    Cynthia M.

    Still good but the music is getting too loud. Call me conservative but I'm NOT a fan of bright cherry pink hair. I won't support it. That can stay in Washington.

    Mmmm sponge Turkey!

    I love this place! Foods great, good beer on tap, priced well, and the staff is always super friendly. Rathdrum needs more places like this!

    Delicious food and super friendly service! Had the perfect bagel and a bowl of tomato basil ravioli soup- both excellent.

    I love the Local Club. As far as I'm concerned, it's the best sandwich - ever! And the staff are very friendly, too!

    Hi Jen, Can you put a Turkey (no other mixed meats) on the menu? I don't want to pay for 2/3 of the sandwich and not get anything for it. Thanks

    Yes! We do have a turkey on the menu. It’s called a Build Your Own sandwich. You can choose the meat, cheese and add all the veggies and dressing you want for no added charge (except avocado has an up-charge). And…it’s our Tuesday special! So every… Read more

    O.M.G. Bowls,…read morekitchen utensils, pots, pans... everything you could want. First of @ll, my girlfriend is an excellent cook -- trained by chefs throughout the U.S. as a result of her former boyfriend who went from restaurant to restaurant worldwide to help them improve their menus, food selection, methods of preparing and cooking the food and its presentation. She is an excellent cook, always taking cooking classes, watching videos, television cooking shows, etc, etc. If there's a kitchen utensil and/or machine, device, or gadget, she knows about it. We'd spent over an hour in the store -- but, unfortunately, whatever purchase we made would have to be carried back to Arizona in our airline luggage, or shipped home. As we were visiting someone, we were limited in time. As she went from table to table selecting things she couldn't live without, I was close by and made note about what she wanted or thought was very attractive. Having broken one of five of her favorite set of bowls, I was trying to redeem myself in replacing the full set. These bowls were among those she used for everyday use, so she really needed just four bowls. She couldn't make up her mind about which she wanted. I got the attention of one of the staff, who collected the set I thought was most attractive, and asked that they be hidden from sight so that I could surprise her, having the bowls shipped to us in Arizona. I told the staff that they needed to be carefully packed to avoid being cracked or broken by the gorillas that load USPS, UPS, and FedUp trucks... so the bowls were set right in front of the cash register where she saw them while paying for her gadgets she couldn't live without. No harm done. Hope she forgets about them by the time we return to Arizona. Earlier, I went to their pastry counter and tried to make up my mind what to get our group of four for breakfast or a snack. I couldn't make up my mind so I bought eight of three variety of scones, which traveled with us to western Washington. This is a great place for anyone who enjoys cooking -- or having beautiful things for their home, including every sort of dish, vase, pot, bowl, pitcher... you get the idea. There are multiple varieties of every item imaginable, something for everyone. Prices are what they are. Quality costs, especially when it comes to cookware and cutlery. Yanno? The prices, I believe, are reasonable, having purchased a few items for her recently. The staff are amazing, from the own to the smart young man who took my purchases and helped me get them to Arizona. Oh, by way: the scones were excellent. We're coming back in August and September. With a list.

    I used to love this place. We had a group that met every Saturday for many years. We brought in…read morebusiness and were respectful. We shopped there and enjoyed our time together. Then a new owner came in. She told us that everything would be great. We were excited. Once there, felt sort of unwelcome but kept going anyway. We all sat at this little copper table with chairs and they brought us food and coffee. It was the norm and we were happy to have a circle table where we could all chat. We had a new lady join that week and she was told by the new owner that she doesn't want us at that table and to pass it on. It was to be for wine drinkers only. Well, why serve us there the whole time only to tell one person, not even the organizer about it. Owner sent a man over to us and we talked to him about it and we all brought up ideas and talked back and forth and thought it was ok at the end. The following week, a new gal came and didn't feel well. She asked the owner to tell the group she had come and that she wasn't feeling well. The owner asked who the group was and she started badmouthing us to the new girl! Another woman showed up and the new gal told her what happened and they both left. The group now meets elsewhere, but it is a shame that you treated a local group after the owner moves here from Spokane and wants to fit in, like garbage after meeting there for YEARS! Not only that, this establishment now closes early and doesn't stay open for farmers markets or anything local going on. It really is a sad deal that someone can come in and ruin a business that someone else worked so hard to build.

    6.25.26: Love the Caruso's in Millwood and even though this location is closer and I frequent this…read moreshopping center more often--I just noticed this Caruso's tucked away in the back corner. It was our first time at this location and loved how big and spacious the inside dining area was. I've been hooked on their Mac & Cheese lately and went with that and my roommate, to no surprise, got the half Meatball Sub. My Mac & Cheese was brought over literally right out the oven! It was so hot, cheesy, and scrumptious. The breadstick was baked just right and perfect to scoop off the cheese sauce from the sides of the bowl. My roommate said the taste and consistency between the 2 stores was pretty spot on and enjoyed his sub. The ladies working were nice and friendly. I really like that they have sanitizing wipes available near the trash area. I know places get busy, so it's really nice to have the opportunity to wipe off a table if given the ability to do. Now that I know it's here, we'll definitely be back!

    This was my second visit to Caruso's, with my first being 7 years prior. I was staying nearby and…read morejust wanted to walk over for dinner. There were three of us and they were not too busy when we arrived. You walk in and order at the counter. They give you a number to put on your table so they can bring your food out to you when it's ready. They give you your drinks at the counter when you pay. I opted to try one of the hard ciders they have on tap. It was Tieton Cider Works Blackberry Cider and it was very good. We ordered two specialty pizzas to share. We opted for the Smokehouse and the Vinny pizzas. I really liked the smokehouse BBQ sauce combined with the pineapple and chicken. The sweetness was very tasty. The Vinny had a good mix of meats with black olives. I preferred the smokehouse, but my dinner mates seemed to really like the meaty Vinny. I would likely stop in again when I'm in the area and looking for a casual environment with good drinks and tasty food.
