I saw there's a smore ice cream with a map of Idaho so that's the main reason for going but when I got there I was inclined to try more of their menu lol so we ended up getting the prosciutto fig flat bread. Honestly, this was amazing! It was popping in unique blends of flavor which they all complimented each other extremely well. We also got the smoke + fire pizza and the ancho short ribs. Both were also delicious but the flatbread still remained the star of the show. The restaurant is located in the grove hotel. The ambiance feels welcoming and fancy. The staff were also kind and welcoming. Overall, this place is amazing and I recommend! read more

Ciara was our sever and she was so nice and attentive, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was nice. Definitely reccomend.

Pretty rare to me to have a hotel restaurant actually provide a good meal. Came here twice for breakfast and both were very solid. First time I ordered a ham and cheese omelette and a breakfast burrito the next. Both were good and something I'd re-order. The burrito in particular was huge and stuffed with chorizo, rice, beans, potatoes, etc and very filling. Came with fresh pico although would have preferred something more saucy. Both times I got the side of fruit and it was filled with 7+ different fresh fruits. I thought service was OK, for whatever reason, the food pacing here took too long. Not many other tables were occupied, so unless everyone in the hotel ordered room service, I couldn't figure out why the kitchen was slow. If I stay here again, I'd try more items from the menu. read more

An all day rainy day winter solstice called for some comfort food and what better place than Trillium at the Grove Hotel. Best perk of the night is the free valet parking when dining. Always stellar service and ambiance is prefect for date night. Creative cocktails and a fantastic wine list including my favorite Pinot from the Willamette, Adelsheim. The food does not disappoint! A mainstay on the menu for good reason is their beef stroganoff which is nothing like your grandma's. It's modern and upbeat and garlicky and so incredibly delicious that it goes straight to your heart. Please do not ever remove this dish from the menu I beg of you. Tonight we also had the Osso Bucco which comes out in a cast iron bowl brimming with so many flavors it's like a treasure hunt in every bite. Trillium is at the very top when it comes to fine dining in Boise. read more

I asked my friend where he wanted to go for his birthday breakfast and without hesitation he said Trillium. I made us a reservation at 10 for today. I didn't know how busy it was going to be since The Grove is such a popular hotel. I didn't have a bad nor good experience last time so I made sure I came in with an open mind this time around. Walking in, I was instantly greeted by 2 gentleman. Santos let me choose a booth or table. I loved the emerald green love seats at the booth so I sat and waited for the birthday boy. My server was busy with another table so Santos was kind and got my coffee started. Amanda came and greeted us. The birthday boy showed up not much after my coffee was dropped off . She got our orders squared away and more coffee refilled for us. I checked the menu out online and the birthday boy is a regular so we knew what we wanted. Ordering was fast and easy today. I got the classic breakfast today. 2 eggs, sausages and fruit. The eggs were cooked perfectly, I wanted them fried a little harder since I passed on the toast today. My favorite part of my meal was the fruit cup. Talk about an amazing fruit cup. There were your basic watermelon, grapes, pineapple, cantaloupe and honeydew but it also had raspberry, blueberries, cherries, strawberries and blackberries. You got a healthy portion of fruit and it was so fresh. You also get two sausages with your classic breakfast, I had one. The sausage was kinda hard and dry, it wasn't that good. Amanda was sweet and got Tod a birthday treat. He picked orange creme brulee. This dessert was perfection. The sugar crust was crunchy and a little bitter so complimented the sweet orange creme nicely. The orange creme was delightful and rich. I love the fresh strawberries and blackberries on top. The strawberries and orange creme was the ultimate bite. It was an impeccable birthday treat! I appreciate that everyone came and said hi to Tod. Everyone was so nice and helpful. When Amanda wasn't available, someone was always checking up on us. I love that they recognize Tod as a regular and the servers interacted with him. It's transactions like that that make me miss serving so much, the relationships you create with your customers. Today was a good visit at Trillium. I know I'll be back for the orange creme brulee. It was too good not to have again. read more

High hopes and expectations dashed. Service was good (until it wasn't). Drinks, salads good and on time. But then . . . Couple that came in 10+ minutes after us gets served. Server indicates food should out shortly. Then she fails to make eye contact for 10+ more minutes. Finally food arrives. Apparently "we're training new staff". Both meals are over-cooked, we finish neither. To her credit, server tries to make it right acknowledging the wait. Takes some of the sting out, but . . . We won't be back. read more

I had the Croque Madame, my wife had the Chicken & Waffles, and we finished with crème brûlée--hands down one of the best breakfasts I've ever had. The toast on my Croque Madame was incredible. I added a little strawberry jam to each bite and just a touch of Tapatío for an extra kick--absolutely perfect. I also may have stolen a few bites of my wife's hot Chicken & Waffles with lavender honey ice cream and maple syrup... and wow. I couldn't get enough of that either. We were here celebrating our 20-year anniversary and were thrilled to discover this gem tucked away in the Grove Hotel. I'm honestly shocked by how amazing the food is. The service was top notch--John B. took incredible care of us. We even had the chance to compliment the chef and meet Ryan, who made my Croque Madame. Hearing him talk about his experience, his love for cooking, and seeing the precision and care he puts into his work made the meal even more special. It truly shows in every bite. Because of the service, the experience, and the expertise behind the food, we happily left a generous tip--it was well deserved. And for only $18-$20 per entrée, the value is unbelievable. I can't wait to come back and try more items on the menu... although I'm the type of guy who, once I find something I love, it's hard not to order it again. So many great choices--what do I do?! Absolutely loved our experience here. Highly recommend. read more

Great spot for breakfast - terrific server Amanda took care of us. The omelet was delicious and you have a choice of sides. I highly recommend the local Acme bread toasted, accompanied by scrumptious huckleberry jam. The cheddar cheese biscuits and gravy were underwhelming-- gravy needed so much more seasoning and were disappointing., especially at this price point. The eggs were cooked as ordered. Excellent coffee. Weird encounter with the host when we walked in. I asked him if we could still get breakfast because it was a few minutes before 11 when breakfast service ends. He said "No" without any smile so I didn't realize he was just acting out his apparently snarky self. Way to start with a poor impression man! read more

My wife and I came here yesterday to celebrate an early Father's Day. We made reservations for 5:30 pm. Trillium is located in the Grove Hotel in downtown Boise, on Capitol near Front St. We parked in public parking for $6. We didn't realize that the restaurant was located in the hotel. It's a nice hotel, and we made a note of it for future reference, in case we wanted to stay downtown sometime. Turns out that at 5:30 on a Wednesday the place was not busy at all. In fact, in our section there was only one other patron. I liked that we had the place all to ourselves. Our server, and I neglected to get her name, was very nice, very helpful, and provided excellent service. My wife had the short rib entree and I had the bison grilled cheese sandwich and fries. All delicious. I hesitate to recommend the lemon New York cheesecake, because we did not taste much lemon, which I love. We're already discussing coming back to try the fish and chips. I recommend Trillium for the delicious food and excellent service. read more

The service and atmosphere was delightful, definitely a 5 star rating here. The food was good but not amazing. We had 4 different entrees and appetizer. The appetizer was spot on and 2 of the 4 dinners were spot on. The fish and chips had breading so thick it was raw and the spicy Mac and cheese was SPICY! They could tone down the latter and it would make the actual taste better than just all hot. read more

So i reserved and they offered free valet parking, so when i went to leave my car, they told me they don't accept manual cars, mind you, it didn't say in the description. so they told me to find parking somewhere else, food was a little dry, place looks really nice. read more

We tried Trillium for the first time for my birthday and it was the perfect way to celebrate! Delicious food, amazing staff, and a pleasant ambiance. Food: 5/5. Everything from drinks to appetizers, entrees and dessert was absolutely amazing! To drink I had the Huck Rita and the Crime of Passion. Both were great, but I think I preferred the tropical flavors of the Crime of Passion. We started with the smoked trout poutine, which was phenomenal! I could not recommend it more! For entrees we had the short ribs and the steak frites. Again, phenomenal. The grits that come with the short ribs are such a delicious side. We got to torte to go for dessert and since it was my birthday they put a candle in the to go box which was such a touching thought! Service: 5/5. Everyone was very professional and our service was fairly quick. Our waters were filled continuously and the waitress was friendly and outgoing. Atmosphere: 4/5. I really liked the ambience of the restaurant. It felt modern and cozy. It was a little brighter than similar restaurants. Kid friendly: 2/5. Not somewhere I would recommend taking kids. I didn't notice a kids menu or high chairs. Save this place for a nice date night away from the kids. read more

I host a lot of clients and perspective clients for lunches, dinners, and happy hours. I had never been to Trillium previously and decided to take a couple of clients here for lunch one afternoon. The restaurant is located inside a hotel, and of course, there is nothing wring with that at all. The interior is well appointed, and if I had to describe the decor in one word, it would be "conservative". What does this mean? It appears as if a bunch of banking professionals would be very comfortable here...not hip or trendy, just...conservative. The food echoed the atmosphere; safe, predictable, but nothing to write home about of sit up and notice. The wait staff was great - making jokes and read the table very well. In the end, it was a solid lunch but again, no "wow" factor. So, if you are looking for a middle of the road yet classy place to have a predictable, solid lunch, drop on in! read more

I absolutely hate to make mention of this small point , but I thought it best for management to know . We considered meeting family at the Trillium tonight because they happen to be staying at the Grove Hotel . While we waited for thier arrival, we looked at the menu by the entrance . The restaurant was empty, except for two waitresses heavily engrossed in a conversation, one of them , facing us. We then waited by the reservation desk and looked over in the direction of the staff who continued talking . We thought maybe at some point a hostess, or the manager would approach us . We had a quick question as to how late they were serving , we were there around 8:00pm. After no acknowledgement from anyone, and after ackwardly looking around, my wife walked in the direction of the waitresses . One of them broke off to greet us , but we sensed possibly that we may be inconvenienceing her . We asked how late they were open , and the response was appropriate, but slightly distant . My brief thought in that moment was we can all at times have a off day, but it's important to remember that first positive impressions can set the tone for a good customer experience. I have eaten here several times and have enjoyed the food and service , ...I don't expect anyone to stand at the ready for my entrance, however if you want to finish your story with your co-worker , please just remember that customers bring very little expectation other then to just feel welcome when they cross the threshold. Hope this visit was just bad timing on our part . read more

What a nice surprise! We met friends for an early dinner before going to an event at BSU. Complimentary valet parking if you're there to dine so that took care of the hassle of downtown parking! The restaurant is off to the side of the open airy lobby and bar. I was expecting to pay $$$ for a nice dinner and didn't mind since it was a special occasion, but instead found nice it reasonably priced with a small, but varied menu. Staff was friendly, food was very good and pricing was excellent. It was our first time there, but we are headed back soon. read more

I was here in June of this year and had a bad experience. The manager invited me back and I'm so glad he did. My cocktail was delicious and my meal was incredible. My server, Shin Li was so good.

Stayed at the Grove hotel and decided to eat here after a road trip from Moscow. We were both really hungry and didn't stop for lunch so it was convenient that this place was directly in the hotel. I ordered the clam chowder and it was great. It was also really filling without being too rich or heavy. Our server was nice and after 6 hours in the car, the atmosphere was refreshing. Only small complaint was when we were ordering our food, the server asked if I wanted bread with my soup. She didn't tell me upfront if it would be an extra charge so we ended up paying for more food I probably wouldn't have ordered. 9/10 place was really decent but it's hard to accurately rate since I was starved and half asleep. read more

I got the Huckleberry BBQ Turkey + Brie Sandwich and the Farm Girl Drink. If you love ginger and kombucha you'll love the Farm Girl. It was definitely my favorite. 5/5 As for the sandwich, I didn't taste the huckleberry and there was barely any Brie. I would give it a 3/5. I wouldn't get it again. Our server was very kind and attentive and our waters were always filled without asking. The place wasn't too busy and it had a nice volume to it: not too loud or too quiet. I could hear the others at my table easily. read more

Sooooo... this place gets a lot of great reviews and it's not bad, but it's not a 4 or 5 star restaurant. It's in a hotel for starters with no dedicated bar (poor waitresses have to run across the lobby to get cocktails), and no bathrooms (you need to take the elevator to the fourth floor)? The food is well thought out but executed medium. Staff was very friendly. I have a feeling most reviewers are local and for Boise this place is good when compared to Longhorn steakhouse or Olive Garden but that's about it. read more

I stayed at the Grove Hotel for a girls weekend and decided to give Trillium a second try. I have to say, the breakfast was amazing. We stopped in and grabbed smoothies while we chatted and they were fresh, and fruity along with just enough cream. I ordered the kids pancakes for my son. They were light and fluffy. The portion size were large! I had the chicken crepes, which were smoked to perfection. My guest had the omelet. The staff was friendly, and never missed a beat. The chef, stopped by our table with a cheerful personiality and happy grin. I am so glad I stopped in! read more

We stopped by for a Saturday brunch. The valet quickly grabbed our car and verified where we were heading. When dining at Trillium you are allowed 3 hours complimentary valet parking. A nice start. The restaurant was quite attractive and presents well. We were quickly led to our table and drink order was taken as we were sitting down (just tea and coffee). As we began to overlook the menu, beverages arrived. The timing was perfect. We ordered the Belgian Waffle, the Almond French Toast, and an omelette. Our sides were all fruit as no one was on the mood for potatoes. The food arrived and we were delighted across the board. Everything was delicious and accompanied with attentive but not overbearing service. I want to call out the other cell t tea service which is a rare thing in the US. Well done. Overall we were delighted and will return for dinner and future brunches. read more

I absolutely love this downtown restaurant! I have been here three times - once for dinner and drinks, once for breakfast, and once for dessert. Each visit has been incredible. My first visit, we tried the espresso martini, house cheesesteak, and Cajun mac & cheese. We loved it so much that I decided to bring my parents for brunch later that same week. My second visit, we ordered smoked salmon, frittata, huevos, rancheros, and smoked chicken crêpes. They loved every dish. During my recent visit, we just stopped by for desserts. We ordered the fruit cobbler (with oatmeal streusel, an ice cream) and the Idaho huckleberry s'more's (comes with marshmallow brûlée, milk chocolate in the shape of Idaho, ice cream). Highly recommend both desserts! I love everything about this place, and will definitely be back for the incredible food, comfortable and modern ambiance, and accommodating service! read more

A-ok for a hotel restaurant. I ate here just for breakfast on the day I was leaving. I am from out-of-state, and every single server I had at every restaurant was so kind, very polite. Except the waitress I had here. She was very curt and a little on the rude side. My friend and I both chose the continental breakfast (which was very good), and another friend had the steak and eggs. Had our waitress been a little more personable, it probably would have been five stars. read more

Decided to come here after the first restaurant food didn't work out for me. 2.5 hours later I was able to eat my meal for dinner. Trillium is at the Grove Hotel at Front and Capitol street. Parked on 9th and Front street, free parking on Sunday. Just a short walk to the hotel main entrance. I am hoping the food is good here. I tend to be a bit reticent about hotel restaurants. We at least get to hang out in downtown another night while we are in Boise. They have a nice pizza oven for their flatbreads. I ordered was the warm crab salad and the ancho roasted chicken. Ended up only grating the crab salad at the end of the meal. Bill total was $23.32. I should have ordered a cold salad. The warm crab salad takes longer. It's been 2.5 hours since my husband was able to eat his meal I refused to eat at the earlier spot. It's been a half hour and I don't have my salad yet, which I ordered as soon as we sat down. I felt hanger setting in as my blood sugar dropped. The food came out after 38 minutes after I ordered. It was the roasted chicken. Rebekah had no warm crab salad. I asked her where my crab salad was. She dropped off the chicken and said that the chef had to remake my chicken. The waitress thought I had ordered the roasted chicken instead of the crab salad. I did not. I actually came here for the warm crab salad in the first place. She asked if I wanted the crab salad. I said no thank you. Rebekah apologized for the mishap on the order and not verifying if I still wanted the salad after ordering the chicken. She ended up giving me the salad for free. She could tell I was really disappointed with receiving only the chicken. The ancho roasted chicken has some red sauce on it and it's super salty. I couldn't eat more than a bite. I had my husband try a bite to see if it was just me, he too found it to be super salty. I asked the waitress to charge me for only the warm crab salad, which was good. I told her the chicken was extremely salty. The service is really good here and they definitely know what it means to have good customer service. It doesn't seem to be in the cards for me to have a good filling meal tonight. At least I didn't over eat tonight at all. read more

Wow wow wow! Stayed at The Grove hotel (where this restaurant is located) and decided to order room service, wasn't hungry enough for an entree but definitely wanted to try a few things from the restaurant. It most definitely did not disappoint! The Szechwan Cauliflower had me doing a happy dance at first bite. Not a spicy dish btw but the flavors were so great and for it to be a starter it was a huge serving (saved some for later) Stuffed Jalapeños had cheese sauce oozing out of it and HELLO wrapped in bacon yes pleasseee! The nice spicy bite from the jalapeño, great cheese sauce, and bacon all came together very well for a pleasant bite Hot Cobbler was like a nice warm hug, it was so darn good!! (I asked the server what type of cobbler it was and totally forgot what she said) it definitely had blueberries in it If your in the downtown Boise area this place is a must! And to combat the food coma stay a night (or two and check out the breakfast) at The Grove Hotel, neither will disappoint Oh, and you're welcome read more

Great place to have breakfast if you're in Boise. This is a hotel restaurant--in the Grove Hotel. But I have been here for dinner too and it is better than your average hotel restaurant. Our server, Li Shu, and the hostess were very friendly, taking time to have personalized conversation. I had the ciabatta breakfast sandwich and my husband got the avocado toast. Highly recommend splitting a meal, unless you're starving. The breakfast sandwich was the clear winner. Nice blend of textures and flavors, without any being overwhelming. The avocado toast was what I could make at home. read more

As far as hotel restaurants go, fantastic! Are here for the first time and was happy with the food and service. Everything we had was rich and flavorful, and generally great.

Last year we found out that from a family of 4, 3 of us have gluten and dairy sensitivities. Fun. Took a while to adjust to new diet and keep out favorite places in town to keep eating at. Trillium is still our fav breakfast spot on weekends with the kiddos. They still offer all the good things like drawing packets for kiddos and classic breakfast with eggs, hash browns or house potatoes and chorizo on the side. Yum. Filling and gluten and dairy free. They make sure to make the items on the side without added butter and such. We love it. Thank you Trillium! read more

Upscale lunch, rustic modern ambience...high ambitions for flavor profiles, but falls short of expectations. Service was awful. Our waiter was more interested in flirting with a woman from one table than to tending to anyone else. Never asked about our food, never filled our drinks, just ditched the bill... Fish and chips were good, almost great. Chicken and Waffles are a failure. Chicken is dry, over seasoned and not Nashville hot. Waffles, while crusty, lack flavor and really not the best option for the dish...think Roscoe's thin Waffles over the Belgian type. At nearly 30 bucks a plate, I'd expect these kinks to have been ironed out. Seriously, to the waiter, perhaps more focus to a father and his young son than simply to your own hunger? read more

Happy hour is 4-6. All appetizers are half off and we'll drinks and beer is 4$. We decided to get every appetizer they had as a meal. We split it 3 ways, we each had a beer and it was 22$ per person before tax. Everything was phenomenal. Nothing that I didn't like. Everything was pretty large in size and we took home some of everything. There was nothing I disliked. The poutine was my fave and the flat bread was my least fave (I'm not a huge pizza person) but all of it was great. read more

Great atmosphere and kind staff the moment you walk in! Don't be shocked when on google maps to see you have to enter a hotel since Trillium is located inside the The Grove Hotel. As we entered the staff was quick to get us seated during lunch hour and gave plenty of compliments. haha. During lunch there wasn't too long of a wait and we ended up getting seated at a booth. Only thing about the booth was that the table top is slightly higher than the table tops at the standard tables. I'm not super tall so proportionately felt off. haha. As for the entrees we ended up getting the Idaho cheesesteak ($15) and tablerock cod ($16). The idaho cheesesteak was not your average cheesesteak since it was cut into thicker chunks and had an herby potato roll to hold it together. I really enjoyed the mushrooms and white cheddar as well so it really elevated the cheesesteak. The meat was marinated and flavored well but they also include a cup to dip your sandwich in if you want more juices. Got a side of fries since we were also getting a salad and they were nice and crisp. If you're ordering a salad and primarily the table rock be sure to share because it is HUGE. I don't usually see smoked trout so it was a great option to try and they do not skimp on the ingredients. You'll need a side plate since it's filled to the brim to even mix it - not that I would complain! Overall both entrees had really great flavors and were not oily at all. Left satisfied and ready to conquer the rest of the day. Staff was also really great so worth coming back just for them! read more
