What a great find the "Salmon River Brewery" in downtown McCall, ID. I had the Ahi Poke Bowl my friend had the Curry Bowl, both were excellent. Mine was the best. Awesome! Just, loved it. Can't say enough good things about having warm rice, cold salad and cold ahi tuna with a little spice, excellent. Behind the bar and our servers for the night were Luke and Kyle both very friendly and attentive. Will definitely come back the next time we're in McCall.

Stopped here for an early dinner. We both ordered the ribs. I was a bit disappointed as they were tough. Not the usual fall of the bone. They had a good flavor but I prefer them more tender. The Mac and cheese tasted excellent and the French fries were great too. Our server Parker did an excellent job. The super shiver IPA beer was tasty. This restaurant has some parking. It’s also pet friendly

Smaller restaurant with a cool vibe. I had never eaten here before so I was curious to what they offered. They had a great selection. I was recommended the Tacos but the chicken was a bit dry. My wife got a wrap and that was super tasty. Looks like they have a huge selection of drinks even though we didn’t get one. Hospitality was spot on. We loved our waitress. She did a phenomenal job. I think if I would’ve gotten something different I may have had a better experience. Other than the dry chicken it was good. I would come back to try something else.

First, the girl who seated us was very cute and friendly. Our server was great, very friendly as well. Our experience walking into the establishment was less than stellar. As a business owner myself, I could suggest some things that would raise the experience to a 5. Several staff walked by us without smiling or acknowledging us in any way. A simple "welcome, we'll be right with you" would go a long way. There was a gentleman in front of us who I asked if he was waiting for a table. He seemed a bit annoyed as if he'd been waiting awhile. The fish tacos (3) were very good and filling. My husband ordered the poke bowl and said it was really good as well. I have a thing about chips & salsa. If you are going to serve it...don't just buy cheap chips from the store. Get a really good tortilla chip. There are plenty of really good store bought chips out there for a reasonable price. Make the better choice. We loved watching the sunset over the lake and it was a beautiful calm night.

There are 3 different experiences to choose from - the bar (with waitress), the quart yard (no server), or the rooftop. We sat in the bar room. The food options are wonderful. I got the Thai beef basil bowl and we also got the elk burger. The fries are soooo crunchy. Yum!
Natalie — Google review
Always a good spot for the beer and their cocktails. The view outside is fantastic, overlooking the lake. The staff is very attentive and quick to suggest a beer to pair with the food. On that note, the food is not as good as one would expect. The only dish that is excellent is the cheese curds, those are to die for. The elk burger is alright. The beer is definitely good, their dragon milk I believe is called is their stout and it’s fantastic.

Stopped by on a busy Friday evening, the place was packed but got seated within 10-15 minutes, which gave us time to sample some of the beers. Beers were tasty and food was quite good and service was impeccable! For how busy they were, food came out fast and being checked in on regularly. While we’ve been to McCall several times, this was our first visit and regret not coming here sooner!

Love this place! Best beer in McCall hands down… and they have incredible staff too. Have been in many times and always had such great experiences with Zack, Emilia, Avery, Kristin, Marilyn, John, Jen, Stacy, and Cher.

Nestled in McCall, Steamers Steak & Seafood offers a delightful dining experience with its rustic charm and funky decor. The menu boasts an array of delectable starters such as steamed clams, baked scallops parmesan, and pan-fried oysters. Known for its perfectly cooked steaks and fresh seafood, this upscale restaurant is ideal for special occasions.
I used to work here 10 years ago. I loved it then and I love it now. Service is exceptional, food is amazing. We ordered the scallops probably the best thing on them menu. I'm a bit biased but they're mashed potatoes are heavenly. If I didn't live so far away I'd eat here for every occasion.

Excellent food and service. High quality all the way around. Yeah it’s expensive. But there are cheaper options in town if it’s not for you. This is one of a kind for the area. Enjoy! Scallop bake was good, cheese bake on top was slightly over done. Good soup and bread

Of all the visits to McCall, we have not eaten here. The wait was half an hour for a party of 5 and 1 child. Feels more like a European eatery with course meals rather than timed meal placement. They did forget 1 entry order. However, the bison steak was delicious!!! Seafood all around for everyone else. Lamb, bison and fish had good flavor. After a two hour meal we all left satisfied.
Spud Q — Google review
I came in with a group of 9 and our experience was pretty bad. Several of us made the mistake of ordering the ribeye. For $45, I was expecting something great. They were the thinnest ribeyes I have ever seen in my life. All of them well done despite most of us asking for medium or medium rare. The seafood looked pretty good though. Also it was incredibly hot in the restaurant, and our food took over an hour to come out. The server was nice though. Moral of the story, DO NO ORDER STEAK HERE. It is a complete scam and unbelievably overpriced.
Caleb H — Google review
DELICIOUS FOOD! Everyone loved their meals. Great fresh seafood and steaks. We were a little cramped in a corner, but it was very busy on a holiday weekend, and the place was SO POPULAR, that's to be expected. I'd go back for the pan-fried halibut every night if I could.

I'm a frequent diner at restaurants in the area, and Steamers Steak & Seafood has become one of my go-to spots. I recently had another excellent meal there that deserves a rave review. We walked in without reservations on a weeknight (Mountaineers Hockey Game) and were promptly seated by the very friendly hostess. The restaurant has a great location on E Lake Street with plenty of parking options so it's quite convenient. Inside, the dining room has a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. Our server was extremely attentive and helpful throughout the evening. Despite the crowd, the food came out fast. We started with the Soup of the Day that was NE Clam Chowder - delicious and we have spent a lot of time in Maine. The main dishes were the Bison Filet, cooked to a perfect medium rare w/ mashed potatoes. The bison was so flavorful and tender. Our friend ordered the Idaho Trout, which was light and delicately seasoned, while my wife had the Scallops. The scallops were absolute perfection - large, sweet and seared beautifully. Everything we ordered was clearly made with care and high quality, fresh ingredients. Even the side dishes shone. Throughout the busy dinner service, the staff remained fast, friendly, and attentive. I highly recommend Steamers for the total package: friendly service, speedy kitchen, cozy atmosphere and - most importantly - outstanding food. Two enthusiastic thumbs up!

We had an amazing dinner while visiting McCall. Not on the water and a bit more rustic, however, the food and service were excellent ! We were interested in a light meal so we shared the steak bites appetizer with a red wine dipping sauce and cowboy butter sauce (deliciously tender) and the grilled salmon with a Caesar salad was perfect!

The restaurant also offers generous portions with daily lunch and dinner specials at convenient prices.

I have eaten here several times and it is always amazing. This last time my family and I went out to eat and it was packed as usual but we were served, seated, ordered, and food brought out very quickly. I have no bad things to say about this place. I had the pollo a la crema, we also ordered the chipotle enchiladas, carne asada tacos, carne asada and camarones, and enchiladas in mole to go (best mole I’ve ever had). I should have ordered a cup of just the mole sauce to go it was so amazing. Their margaritas are delicious too. Seriously if you haven’t been here you should go.

We had an amazing experience at Pueblo Lindo in McCall. The waiter was friendly, kind, knowledgeable, and helpful! He recommended for me to try Sopa Azteca and it was outstanding! I even came back the next day to have the same soup again! My husband had fajitas and they were also very delicious. Would definitely recommend this place and we will come back there again.

Pueblo Lindo feels like home. It’s by far the best option when it comes to Mexican food in McCall! The food is fantastic, reasonably priced, big portions for leftovers, the atmosphere is authentic and welcoming. As a cabin owner in McCall that comes up dozens of time a year, we always find ourselves picking Pueblo Lindo over all the other options. I will say winter is our favorite time to go because it so warm and cozy with the fire inside.

The food was very good, not very spicy, but the staff was very helpful and accommodating. The prices are so much less than eating down in the main area of McCall. I would definitely go there again. If you want a belly full of yummy Mexican food, this is your place on a budget. I much prefer a giant plate of Mexican food for $14 rather than $30 LOL ❤️

Nestled amidst towering pine trees, Toll Station Pizza and Grill has been a beloved local gem since 1981, making it an ideal destination for families seeking fun and delicious food. With its vibrant outdoor patio perfect for people-watching, this lively eatery offers a diverse menu that caters to all dietary preferences, including gluten-free and vegetarian options.
I am gluten free. The gluten free spinach dip with gluten free bread was wonderful. The gluten free pizza was alright, similar to other gluten free pizza places. The most important thing for me is I didn’t get glutened and sick. Very happy with that. My husband ordered lasagna which he said was good. Our server was awesome. He made me some butter with crushed garlic for my pizza.

The Toll Station has been here for as long as I can remember and has always had some of the best pizza and pasta in McCall. They have a variety of things on the menu, from gluten-free, vegetarian, and everything in-between. It's worth the stop if you're ever in the area. The staff is friendly, the atmosphere is great and the food is delicious. They have outdoor seating weather permitting. Afterward, take a stroll down town and see the amazing sights and activities that are happening year round.

I don’t know why I haven’t eaten here before- the food is delicious! We had the McCall special pizza and I got the chicken fettuccine alfredo and boy, was I impressed! The pizza had a nice thin crust with generous toppings (reminds me of Lucky 13 in Boise). The pasta was a real treat because the Alfredo sauce was very flavorful and the chicken was grilled and delicious. Usually I’m disappointed with Alfredo because it’s often runny or bland sauce but not this time! The staff was very friendly and attentive for such a busy weekend! I’ll be going back!

Talk about a surprise place. We almost came for pizza, which looked amazing. But the moment we saw sandwiches go to another table, I had to get one. The prime dip sandwiches were absolutely amazing, the flavor spot on. My dad tried the fish and chips and said they were really good as well. My wife tried the chicken sandwich and it had so much flavor. The prices were extremely fair as well, making this a place we will certainly try it again next time we come to visit. Great food!
Daniel F — Google review
We ordered a medium chicken popper/Walter pizza and an order of loaded fries. I'll start with the fries because they were phenomenal! The alfredo sauce on them was amazing. They were perfectly crispy and so delicious! They even held up being a takeout order and didn't get soggy or cold! Had we only gotten those, this would be a 5-star review. Now to the pizza. The chicken popper comes with a hot honey "drizzle," but whoever was responsible had a very heavy pour! The entire bottom of the pizza was completely puddled and saturated in the honey. This completely ruined the entire pizza. We were so sad because the pizza looked amazing until we pulled the pieces up. My husband's piece of pizza was so drenched in it that all of the toppings slid right off of the crust when he attempted to pull his slice out of the box. Our hands were so sticky and covered in honey.

We've been going to McCall for a long time. I thought the atmosphere was really nice, compared to going here in the past. It's much lighter, and more inviting. The menu is robust. The service was good - our beer was clearly flavored with cleaning product, but the staff brought out a substitution readily. Our food was the sticking point - the otherwise good experience was ended with soggy pizza. The flavors were good, and the salad was quite tasty. For an established restaurant in McCall, I thought it was alright but not amazing. Probably will give it another try. It's a staple.

Absolutely love! Been here twice! The servers are wonderful! Especially with kids! The food is amazing! I got the Fettuccine Alfredo with chicken and it was delicious! They also give you alot! So come hungry! For a family of 6 we spent 130 so not to bad either!

We spent the week camping in McCall and while in town decided to try the pizza at this location. I have the gluten allergy and always concerned about cross contamination. Ordered the gluten free vegetarian with added items and my husband got a separate regular pepperoni. This was absolutely the best gluten free pizza I have had in a very long time!! Highly recommend Toll Station.

Honestly, my favorite breakfast cafe so far that I've tried here in this area. Such a cute little place, very quaint and simple. The chocolate muffin was incredible, and bagel sandwich was really damn good. Had a pumpkin latte which didn't really taste all that great though, probably should have sweetened it myself.

Great food but a little pricey. We enjoyed our breakfasts and an apple juice but I was surprised to see that the bill was over $40.00. I skipped the hash browns with my eggs Benedict and my husband had one of the breakfast specials. You order at the counter and then a server brings your food to your table. At those prices I am used to full service.

The atmosphere was interesting — kind of crowded, you seat yourself and order at the counter. We weren't greeted when we came in, so we didn't really know if we had to wait to be seated or not, and we sat at the table for about 10 minutes before realizing we had to go up to the counter to get menus and order. The food ended up being really good, but the rest of the experience was kind of a flop.

Ate there just today, around 1:30 pm. Hubby had a BSTA sandwich and Irish Cream cold brew; I had a turkey sandwich. The pannini bread was fresh, as we're the ingredients. The chips and orange slice were fresh. This is a café, not a restaurant, so the customer service is slow, not always accurate on the deliveries. Spendy, but this is McCall!

Horrible experience and food poisoning. First they gave me the wrong sandwich (Tuna Melt instead of Tuna sandwich). Then it comes with potato chips that were stalled, same for my wife. No wonder that 4 hours later I got food poisoning. If their tuna melt ingredients were as expired as their chips, I have eaten spoiled tuna or mayo. So far it has been the worse experience I had in McCall, by far.

Nestled in the heart of McCall, Idaho, Hometown Pizza & Pub has been a beloved local gem since its inception in 1995. This cheerful and laid-back eatery is renowned for its diverse selection of pizzas, including convenient take-and-bake options that make enjoying a slice at home a breeze. The menu also features mouthwatering wings, hearty sandwiches, and fresh salads crafted from homemade dough and sauce that elevate every dish.
We went as a family to grab a quick lunch before heading off to do other activities. This was an unplanned stop (brewery was closed) so I was nervous about trying it without looking at the menu beforehand. I did not need to worry, because this pizza shop was delicious and really nice. There were a lot of options and plenty of places to sit for dine-in. We especially loved the fried haloumi cheese appetizer. The pepperoni pizza was especially good, and we all ate way too much. One note: this place is mostly "serve yourself". You order at the counter, grab your own plates/silverware, and clear your own table. The only thing the staff does is cook and take pizzas out to you. I don't mind that at all, but McCall is the type of town where certain people expect more service. If you are one-such person, this place is not for you.

McCall Brewing Company, the second oldest brewery in Idaho, has been a local favorite since its establishment in 1994. The cabin-style microbrewery and restaurant offer a genuine pub-like ambiance where visitors can enjoy handcrafted ales and ciders alongside gourmet burgers and other high-quality pub food. The brewing process is on display at the center of the building, providing entertainment for patrons as they savor their drinks.
Stopped at the brewery for some food and drinks. We Sat upstairs in the outdoors terrace. We both had the Hazy Jones IPA and it was delicious. Service by Peyton was great. The food was ok. We decided to try the fish and chips and the finger steaks. I didn’t really care for either one. I’m not a lover of fried foods so that may have something to do with it. I like that they sell some t-shirts and other souvenirs.

Great spot, beer was very good. They do combination beer as well with a couple of styles that taste fantastic. Only stopped by for a beer and a sample. Did not try the food but it did look good from what other people near by got. Close to the lake and definitely stop by if you are in McCall

I am usually not one to leave a negative review, and I honestly feel bad doing it but I was unfortunately unimpressed with our experience here. The food was priced higher than expected, which would have been fine if the food was good. My husband ordered a medium rare steak and it came out nearly uncooked. I would say it came out blue but I fear that might be an overstatement. It wasn’t even edible but he didn’t have the heart to send it back so he took it back to our air bnb and cooked it himself. 😅 The chicken tenders I ordered were probably the best part of the meal, but they came out a bit overcooked in my humble opinion. The only semi redeeming quality here was our server who did not provide great service, but she didn’t provide poor service either. Sub par for sure. Again I hate to leave a negative review, but I was just baffled to pay over $100 for a meal that was not even close to worth that price. Hopefully it was just an off night, and I’d love to give the benefit of the doubt, but we went to this restaurant because it had pretty good reviews, and I feel a bit misled. 😅

This was a bit of a mixed bag for food. The buffalo chicken salad was fantastic, but the chicken sandwich and beer pretzel were just okay. However, the beers were fun to try, the atmosphere was comfortable, and the patio seating was awesome. Would go again for the salad, but perhaps after a bit of a wait.

Walked away with the anniversary cup and shirts as souvenirs for me to share back home. Very delightful experience.

Bar & grill
Lardo Grill & Saloon is a casual American eatery with a Western theme, offering steaks, burgers, and sandwiches in a laid-back setting. The restaurant has garnered positive reviews for its warm ambiance and delicious food. Visitors have praised the mouthwatering dishes and the unique decor, including a large pot belly stove. Situated near Shore Lodge in McCall, Idaho, it offers reasonably priced and high-quality food and drinks.
We ate the $16.59 ranch hand burger (Canadian bacon, egg and salsa) and $16.69 Vic’s Chic (chicken tender sandwich with jalapeños). Both were great and the fries were unexpectedly good? Every place we’ve eaten on this trip the fries are done different. Here they were like thick flat potato chips, so good! And the Buffalo fries were great too. Our waitress was quick, friendly and funny. We loved the music and vibe!

Honestly so sad because I wanted to like this place, so one star for the atmosphere, one more star because it wasn’t the worse food I’ve tasted. Would not recommend the chicken fettuccine. Seemed a bit over priced for the lack of flavor. Our server was decent but for it being so empty it did seem a little lacking. I did politely mentioned that my dish tasted off and was hurting my stomach, but they didn’t offer any accommodations or recommendations for something else. So I really did give it my best shot. Ended up driving down to Cascade to the Thunder Mountain burger place due to a locals recommendation and they rocked! Will be leaving them a 5 star if you’re interested in seeing photos.

This place is very rustic looking. Service was great. Our food was delicious. There were only a handful of people there. We like doing early dinners to beat the crowds. By the time we left, people were starting to show up.

We had high hopes of enjoying this local staple, but felt everything about it was extremely underwhelming. Our food was mediocre at best. The sandwich was tasty, but sides and sauces were not what we ordered. A $19 sandwich did not live up to the price at all. Our second meal was further overpriced. We received a small portion of chicken tenders (some torn and a few were quite small) for $15. They were served with a few sprigs of cabbage. It was an embarrassing meal. I nearly requested this be struck from our bill, but did not think the restaurant really cares anymore. We will not return.

I hadn't been here in years but remembered good things. We were not disappointed. We ate on a Friday night and arrived a bit early (5:30ish). We were seated immediately and dinks and our order were quickly taken. Our salads were delivered very fast and the main course right behind it. The service was so good. I had finger steaks and my partner had the cod. The fingersteaks were amazing. The house sauce was so tasty too. In the past we have struggled to find a place that properly cooked fish. Typically it comes over done. In this case it was the perfect golden brown, and also delicious. The place was clean though aged a bit beyond just the rustic vibe. For example the logos on our water glasses were nearly worn off. Overall, highly recommended!

A true McCall staple, a must stop if you’re in town. The walls are covered in great art and town memorabilia. Get the finger steaks - especially if you are in from out of town! They are a treat!

Update 12/2023: As always, another fabulous time at Lardo. This restaurant is seriously underrated. There’s nothing quite like one of their 1/3 pound, 100% ground beef patties with their signature Lardo fries (the best cut EVER) dipped in delicious house made fry sauce. On my most recent drop-in, husband and I ordered the Ranch Hand Burger (fried egg, Canadian bacon, salsa, $15.49) and the Jalapeño Burger (with Swiss, $15.49). He said his burger was delicious. There was a decent amount of salsa, so it was pretty messy but the combination of the egg and bacon with juicy burger was unbeatable. My jalapeños didn’t quite pack the punch like it had previously, but overall it was still very, very yummy, especially with a lil dab of their fry sauce. I swear this is the best version I have yet to have. Can’t wait to be back again very soon! 06/2020: I could go on and on about how much I absolutely love Lardo's Grill & Saloon. Like I could probably write an entire freaking book about it I love this place so much. The food, the service, the atmosphere. This place has got it all. We'll start with the atmosphere. Awesome. You walk right in and typically get seated right away. The interior of the building looks rather run down and cluttery, like an old barn house, but that's the aesthetic and it adds to the experience. Servers are always very kind. They check on you enough when you need more fry sauce (which I could rave about all day) but not too much to where you can actually enjoy your meal. If something is wrong, they'll take it back right away and fix it for you. Finally, there is nothing more satisfying, more delicious, than a juicy thick hamburger and fries drenched in fry sauce after a week long backpacking trip in the mountains. Each and every bite of the burgers I get here is like meeting God. I mean, really. It's that freaking awesome. I've had nearly all the burgers on the menu, most recent had a bacon burger that brought me back to life and a jalapeño chicken sandwich that not only filled me up but cleared my sinuses. Hands down my favorite eatery in little McCall. I am looking forward to further experiences at Lardo's. I think I may need to try some of that spaghetti that looks oh so good...

Great place to eat. It was an upscale restaurant for the area. Drinks were delicious. The server was very knowledgeable and attentive. I ordered the elk meatloaf, and it was just ok. The carrots within the meatloaf were hard. Great flavor, but I couldn't get over the carrots. Everyone liked their dishes. I recommend this restaurant.

Some of the best sushi I’ve ever had! The service was outstanding and so friendly. We sat out on the patio and watched the sunset over the lake. I asked for the Spring Fever roll off the menu and told the waitress to surprise me for the second. They brought out Moe’s Special roll and it was beautiful and delicious! I’ll be coming back without a doubt. 11/10 HIGHLY recommend

The rice is good but the fish is kinda small pieces and the specials aren't that great. Needs a ton of local salmon instead of what every they get from the distributor. The tuna is block tuna not fresh from Oregon and Washington. If anyone upped the sushi game on them they would have to step up or bow out. They're calling the basic Atlantic Salmon King Salmon 🤦‍♂️ Despite midz game it's still pretty tasty sushi. I just feel it could be done a lot better. Happy hour doesn't really help on the bill either. Nothing fantastic on that menu deal wise. The local grocery store sushi is just as good. You can get Saba, Hamachi and Unagi here though. Just pretty basic.

I’ve never complained about poor service, or write reviews in general, but our server was awful. She had brown hair & tattoos, probably 30 or 40, was wearing a short tube top, didn’t get her name, but we paid for the drinks and left after 10 minutes instead of ordering food. My sister and I are both servers so we’re usually pretty understanding (but we would never intentionally make guests feel this unwelcome!) we were shocked by how nasty this woman was towards us. was super excited to try this place too! The table next to us also noticed how weird this was.

Our server walked right by us three times before he got to our order. He served others who came in after us. Real rude. I'm sorry but I hope they didn't put fresh catfish in my meal. Yes they serve catfish. About an hour after getting home I was on the john getting rid of dinner. Not good, we will not be back.

I have made it a point to come to the Bistro 45 on both of my last two trips to McCall. The spinach and artichoke dip is AMAZING! The veggies soup was also great and the tomato and mozzarella salad was so fresh. The warm spiced red wine was also a treat! I highly recommend this cozy spot. And if you are into wines they have a great list or by bottle at reasonable prices.

If you can avoid the crowds on the weekend this is absolutely one of the best places in McCall to meet with friends or just hang out and read a book.

This place was adequate AT BEST under the old name but it's way worse for some reason. It's still the same people running it. This "chef" should really consider a different vocation. We picked out our bottle of wine and sat there without glasses for 10 to 15 minutes while he struggled to put our order into the computer. We ordered a caprese flatbread for an appetizer to share among us and the tomatoes on top of it had been placed on after it was cooked as they were cold. Skip it. We waited an hour at minimum to get our entrees and they said they had an oven issue. After we got our entrees, the mixed vegetables were barely warm and a loaded baked potato that does not come with sour cream and butter should not be sent out. There are better places in McCall, skip this place.

Nestled in the heart of McCall, Idaho, Bistro 45 Wine Bar & Grill is a charming spot that beautifully marries community spirit with an elevated dining experience. With its stunning waterfront deck offering breathtaking views of the lake, it’s hard to resist enjoying a glass of wine while soaking in the scenery. The interior boasts floor-to-ceiling windows that ensure you won’t miss out on those picturesque sights, even during snowy winters.
You can't beat the location for a restaurant in McCall, enjoying a bottle of wine along the lake front is hard to complain about. We didn't order anything crazy (chicken breast panini and a burger) but the food was great. Our server Dina was awesome. An excellent visit, surprised to see so many bad reviews for this place. It's always a good "go to" while dining in town. In my book, well worth it.

Truly excellent food and friendly staff. Wine offered was high quality as well. Great atmosphere, including a nice outdoor seating area for when the weather is good. Slightly non traditional service model. You seat yourself and order at the counter, then they give you a card and bring you your food. I didn't mind this at all, but could be off putting if you were expecting full service. Would definitely eat here again next time I'm in McCall!

Honestly, the best thing about this place is the view outside. The issues started with the hostess. At first, she seemed short and somewhat annoyed, but we brushed it off. We informed her that we had a reservation for outdoor seating, and she told us there would be a wait. No problem. While we were waiting, another couple arrived and told her the same thing, but they chose to sit inside. She seated them indoors, and about 5 minutes later, she moved them outside. That was a bit surprising, but we didn't make a fuss. Finally, she returned after 10 minutes and seated us outside in a sunny area, despite several open tables in the shade. My son has autism, so the sun made him uncomfortable. After a few minutes, we asked the hostess if we could move to one of the shaded tables. She appeared very annoyed. When my wife asked if we were bothering her or making unreasonable requests, the hostess responded with an attitude, "Just move, do whatever you want." My wife was shocked and asked to speak with the manager, but the hostess walked away. My wife followed her, and when the manager emerged from the kitchen, the hostess pointed at my wife and said, "She is mad at me." My wife looked at the manager and asked, "Is that professional?" The manager apologized, and the situation was resolved. Now, onto the food. We ordered the Tuna Poke Tacos, which were okay but nothing special. The avocado was not ripe yet and was hard. I would give them a 2; I've definitely had better (sorry, it's the only picture I took). The main course took about 40 minutes to come out, if not longer; we lost count. Fortunately, our son's food came out quickly; he had chicken fingers and fries, which to me, they were the best part of the meal. While waiting, we noticed a waitress who seemed lost, bringing the wrong food to tables and appearing annoyed and disinterested. My wife ordered the Shrimp Pesto Pasta, which she enjoyed, but I wasn't a fan. I had the "Shoemaker Ranch" Bison Ribeye cooked medium rare. It was okay, but it was overcooked and under-seasoned. The mashed potatoes were bland and lacked flavor. In the end, they offered us a free dessert to make up for the hostess's behavior, but we declined. The manager ended up removing the cost of the two lemonades, which was a 'nice' gesture, but it left us questioning their approach. On our way out, the hostess apologized. As I mentioned, the view was the best part overall. However, in my experience, the food and service weren't worth the money. There are many better restaurants in McCall.

Food ranges from croissants, soups, panini sandwiches and some dinner plates. The pesto salmon plate is delicious & simple with neat presentation. The salmon was presented on a light bed of orzo pasta surrounded by sun-dried tomato sauce/paste and paired well with the dish. They also have coffee and wine. Seating is open at tables as the facility is a converted shop which allows for overhead doors to let light in & be opened during good weather. Overall the atmosphere and food options are really needed for this area.

First of all, the biscuits and gravy are so/so. Small flat biscuit. Gravy is funnier than average. The outdoor seating is interesting listening to traffic. Had an old gentleman kinda playing, and kinda singing. Difficult to tell with tourist traffic, harleys, diesels, and side by sides blowing by. 2 B&Gs and 2 coffees was over 40 bucks. Probably not something that will be done again. Everyone faints over Topple. And maybe he's great. But I think we'll go across the street to the shell station. Good food. Great prices.

Food was good. Nice outdoor seating. My complaint is about a sign inside. It basically demeans men by saying women need to beat men into something worth having dinner with. And it was not presented as joke or funny, but serious. I and my girlfriend were highly offended. Imagine if those things were said about women. Both men and women deserve respect.

Yacht Club McCall, located at 203 E Lake St, McCall, ID, is a historical establishment originally constructed in the 1920s during the westward expansion facilitated by the railroad. Although it suffered a fire in 1942 that led to the loss of its original stucco design, gambling halls, and bowling alleys, it was rebuilt three years later.
Let me start by when I heard we were going to the Yacht club for drinks, I was thinking fancy boats ect. so I was a little confused as we were not in our Sundays best! Anyway, we had a great time. We were there on a holiday weekend and it was full of "kids" 20 year old. They were all super great with our group of all ages! We will be back, if back in the area. Also a great place to watch the sun set

We ordered the Calamari as an appetizer. It tasted like it came from a frozen bag. We asked the waitress if it was fresh and she said, "No. We're in Idaho" My husband had the shrimp scampi with home fries and I had the halibut. When our entrées arrived, the fries were the star of the show. The shrimp was well cooked, but the scampi sauce was bland and watered down. On the halibut plate, it was hard to find the halibut amidst the sea of home fries. Very disappointing. For $150, one beer, one house wine, appetizer and 2 entrées. We do not recommend, nor will we go back.

Easy walk from the hotel. I liked the sidebar cocktail. The shrimp skewer appetizer was the best thing we had. That’s all we can say positively. The rest of the food was mediocre, at best. You can make it better at home. And it’s so overpriced for what it is. The service is extremely slow. The hallway got very smoky from the kitchen at one point. The area is beautiful and friendly, but we won’t be back to this restaurant.

Me and my family went here expecting good food and to try something new. The place was amazing and the music was very calming. The wait for us to place our orders took forever. We arrived at 7:30 and were served our food at 9:40, the couple that came in after us got their food before us which was very confusing. My father got the fish and chips, when his food came out his fish was very good but his chips were burnt to a crisp and where so hard you couldn’t eat them. My mother got the prime rib it was very good but her veggies looked very pale and not good what to ever. For myself I got the Alfredo fettuccine, now when you get Alfredo you expect to get the sauce on it but my Alfredo was not made with it what so ever it tasted like it was made with actual cheese and like the craft Mac and cheese, it just tasted like absolute trash. My mother also got a Bloody Mary and the vegetables looked so pale like the where diseased. Do not eat here what so ever it was a terrible experience over all.

Nice looking place from the outside. Inside was charming as well. Food was a disgrace and I cant believe the chef and waitress sent it out. Wish I would of photographed for proof but if you read the reviews of past customers,they were spot on. I asked local businesses if they ate there,taking a consensus of the town,and most said it has not been good for years and management won't listen. Now for the food. First over priced even for mccall tourists area. Girlfriend had sad dried out trout and rice with no flavor. Asked for a tarter sauce and was given a resemblance of a horseradish type sauce. I would suspect this poor trout,who gave it's life,was frozen for a long period of time,not to be served fresh and delicate and flaky. I had the chicken,who also sacrificed it's life to become a dry,hard over grilled bit of leather. Oh Idaho the place for potatoes literally grown everywhere. I was served an uncut unprepared 2 day old at least potato. When serving baked potatoes to a customer, presentation of a nice sliced open potato with large slab of butter and sour cream on top looks fantastic. Salad was good and ice tea was delicious. Wait staff was very understanding, I tipped a 5 spot as a thank you for the waitress and meal was not charged. Please management/owner listen to reviews and correct deficiency to make your establishment successful . Good luck to you all.

Had a very weird experience there. Found a piece of plastic rope and when we called the owner, instead of apologizing, he was asking me what I wanted to do about it and questioned me if it was in the food or I just had it from somewhere else. I was taken back with this kind of response that I took from the owner. It makes me wonder what hygiene they will be having in their kitchen. Although that didn't charge for that dish, I left with a bad experience and a lot of questions in my mind.

The Cutwater on Payette Lake is a must-visit spot during the McCall Winter Carnival. Located at the Shore Lodge, it offers fine dining with a beautiful setting along the shores of Payette Lake. The restaurant has received high praise for its excellent food and warm atmosphere. While the main dining area may be closed during midday, there's a hidden gem downstairs—a lesser-known bar area that serves lunch.
Went to share a dinner before we got married. Such a beautiful view. Our server was fantastic, her name started with a B (sorry I can’t remember!), and she seemed to be a good trainer for a newer waitress. Our food was amazing. Dessert was even better. Ask to try the strawberry shortcake. They surprised us with the best chocolate cupcake of our lives. Will for sure make this a must stop next time we’re in town.

This is an elegant fine dining restaurant. The food took a little bit of time, but you would not want to rush this kind of perfection. Drinks and appetizers came quickly, and the wait for the food was well worth it! We ate on the patio, right next to the water. The atmosphere was amazing. And the food was well worth the fine dining prices.

I’ve been here a few times, but this time the people working did a phenomenal job and the food choice was excellent. We got the pizza with a Cobb salad and everything was amazing. We also got two virgin bloody Mary’s that were well done. Normally this place is reserved up but we got lucky and they were able to see us within 10 minutes. A great place to go if you have under eight people and want to enjoy a good view of the lake. I would recommend this place. Belen did a great job making us feel special. We told her we were pregnant and she wrote us a cute note❤️

Wow! Celebrating my birthday, my husband and I had Sunday brunch with a front row seat at the window. I had the French toast, which was delicious, and my husband ordered the French Dip sandwich. Service was excellent and the view was to die for. Highly recommend reservations as they saved the window view for us.

We were reluctant to dine here based off reviews. Don’t listen to the reviews. This place is amazing. The service is amazing and the food is incredible. Sean was our waiter and I’ve never met a more competent service person. He recommended bacon wrapped asparagus and they were insanely delicious.

We stayed at shore lodge for the weekend and cut water was less than desirable. Really beautiful view and the breakfast sandwich and traditional eggs Benedict were absolutely delicious. For the price we would expect a little more effort on the hash-browns, no seasoning. They could add onions or peppers to make it worth the money. My wife ordered Diet Pepsi, it was served in a mason jar, cool idea, but when she finished it we realized the glass was never cleaned well. No change to our bill when we mentioned it.

Restaurant
Nestled within the stunning McCall Golf Course, Banyans on the Green is a delightful dining destination that opened its doors in early 2018. With a fresh modern mountain aesthetic, this restaurant offers an inviting lodge-like atmosphere complemented by breathtaking views of Ponderosa pines and rolling fairways. The menu is diverse and enticing, featuring everything from hearty breakfast options like Breakfast Wraps to classic dishes with eggs, sausage, bacon, hash browns, and toast available on weekends.
Best clam chowder ever. I have ordered New England Clam Chowder all over the West US and this is the best. Clams were firm and not chewy. Soup is thick and not grainy. Perfect potatoes, not too many and just the right size. The Ceasar salad was good and fresh. The Lasagna Rolls were unique with a good Bolognese sauce. This is on the McCall Golf Course so the view from the restaurant is amazing. I ordered 2 bowls of the chowder to go. I will go there again as soon as I am anywhere near there.

I’ve never experienced worse service. I feel like I’m really good about giving people the benefit of doubt but the service here was so bad. We made reservations ahead of time for 22 people. Half of the restaurant was empty. When we arrived they split our tables and only acknowledged half of the party. After waiting about 30 min, half the party had food and drinks and the other half hadn’t even had a waitress stop at the table. We asked for menus and then ended up grabbing our own. They finally asked what drinks we wanted after 45 min. They wouldn’t take our food order at that time. 15 min later they grabbed more drinks for us, still wouldn’t take our order. The other half of our party was done eating. They finally took our food order. We told the half of our party that ate to go ahead and leave without us since we had plans later on in the night. Then after being there for 1 hour and 45 min they told us that they were out of half the things we ordered. We found out that they only had one of our meals done at that point. They didn’t apologize once. The bartender was talking about us to other costumers, how we walked in without notice and had screaming kids. Which neither was true. Literally the worst service I’ve ever experienced and no apologies or even acknowledgement that we were waiting.

Service was terrible. Food was worse. The fish came out of a freezer box. The clam chowder was cold and watery. My wife ordered a Caesar salad and it was made with head lettuce. The fish tacos are spicy, but the menu doesn’t say they’re spicy would never recommend this place.

Sorry. We came here and wanted to enjoy ourselves. The management needs to train people so they know what they're doing. Don't come for the ribeye special since you won't get it. But the table next to you will. Our server was lovely, but it was his first night. He asked for help from the other server and bartender several times but they gave him bad information. We had overcooked fish instead of steak. Once we could NOT get the rib eye special as we were told the website needed updated and they didn't have that, only to hear the next table order and get the rib eye special 30 minutes later. We ordered pasta with RED sauce and got white sauce which our friend can't eat. We made a reservation on Saturday for our dinner tonight (Thursday) and we looking forward to it. What a disappointment.

Too much great food! I could only sample my appetizer, caesar salad, and the incredible mushroom stuffed ravioli entree. The food was great, our dining tour guide, Shane, was exceptional, and the view out the window was gorgeous. My second experience in a week did not disappoint--it just reaffirmed the quality experience.

The food is wonderful, but the service is painfully slow. I've seen 3 sets of meals sitting on the rack for over 10 minutes. Its Mothers Day, 2023, and the place isn't anywhere near full so I can't figure out what's going on. Last season, I placed a phone order for a burger before a round of golf. I arrived only to find out they had forgotten to enter my order in the computer. Not thrilled, but the burger was comped upon receipt. I'd recommend this place to anyone looking for good food, with plenty of time to kill.

Just happened to find this place in McCall Idaho. Greeted with a friendly smile and kindness! The sandwich I got was delicious! Coffee was great and presented beautifully. Sat in a well lit area with internet and plugs for my phone and laptop. Totally recommend! 🙏🥰 UPDATE: Came back for breakfast and... very good. Even though it was a bit busy the team was friendly and helpful. Great place for families and just to hang out on a warm McCall day for a cool drink or iced Late. Thanks so much for being amazing!

Was really apprehensive to write a review on this place because I love it so much and don't want it to get any busier. But they deserve a ton of kudos as they hit it out of the park. Went there for lunch on 2/12 and just amazing food once again. Meats, breads, everything just super fresh. Can't wait to be back in McCall just for this place. Update Dec '24: Yup, still hitting it out of the park. I am quite particular with sammies, and they continue to impress. You can't go wrong with the 208 with turkey. The bread, veggies, meat...fresh as fresh can be.

Loved this restaurant! We stayed in McCall three days and ate here twice - it was that good. My wife and I ordered something different each time enjoyed them all. The menu has a lot of unique items and we wished we could have tried everything. Our favorite was the huevos corn-cheros... it was amazing. I would definitely recommend the cafe and will absolutely go back next time we are in town.

This is our go-to place for breakfast in McCall. Great location and setting with great views of the lake. Very friendly staff with fast service. We appreciate the laid-back atmosphere. Very clean with lots of seating inside and on the beautiful patio. What am I forgetting... Oh yeah, the food! Our breakfast came out pretty fast. The food was served hot and with very nice portions. My wife and I shared the Classic Breakfast. Scrambled eggs, my favorite kind of hash browns, sourdough toast, and three of the best sausage links that I can remember tasting. The portions are perfect for us. The coffee was hot and bottomless. Next visit to McCall, we look forward to trying something from the lunch menu. The menus offer a great variety of items, so there is something for everyone in your party. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Came here absolutely starved for a massive breakfast/lunch. Was met with a pretty epic menu sign outside the door that shows us what exactly we could get, while examining the options I noticed that there were no classic pancakes!! However there was one meal that caught my eye, the classic breakfast, this breakfast was served well after a 30 minute wait the eggs were bland with no flavor and the hash browns were the same, the sausage was ok but tasted bland without absolutely smothering it with ketchup and other mysterious jams. However the fam let me try some of their foods and oh boy the avocado toast was great! Same with the burrito above. Overall was a pretty sick spot and cured my hunger so 4 stars 😀

Bar
Located at 304 E Lake St, McCall, ID, Forester McCall is a historic downtown bar that has been in operation since 1947. The venue offers live music and a full bar menu. It is known for its lively atmosphere and excellent drinks. Customers appreciate the high vibes and ambiance provided by the staff, making it a favorite spot for many visitors. With its rich history and vibrant energy, Forester McCall stands out as one of the best bars in McCall.
This is the best bar in McCall. Don’t even bother going anywhere else. They have the best drinks and the best bartenders. Lots of classics and they have good seasonal drinks as well. They always have something fun going on from live music to bingo to trivia. They have free popcorn always and pizza as of fall 2024. The pizza is so good! The crust is perfect, not too much dough and it’s crispy enough to be crunchy but not overcooked. The flavors are so yummy. The pepperoni is top notch and they have different special every night. You can get a whole pizza or just a single slice. They also have a ton of bar games like cornhole. Bartenders are so nice and helpful. Plus they have cool merch. They’ll also help you get a ride home if you’re not good to drive - safety is a priority.

Stopped in on a beautiful September afternoon because all the ice cream shops in town are closed for the season . Booze is the next best thing, right? Our bartender made us really great gin and tonics so we decided to try one of their specials, the Gravitron. It was fresh and tasty and hand crafted with huckleberries. I wish I had gotten his name because he was super friendly and helpful, he made some suggestions for stops on the next part of our road trip. The bar has fresh popcorn, corn hole and one of those huge connect four games. The atmosphere is just really terrific and there are a handful of outside seats that belly up to the bar through an open window. Apparently they have trivia nights, bingo and live music as well. I’m sorry to miss those because I’m sure they’re fun!

Place is owned by a huge management firm out of Seattle. Drinks are overpriced. Food is trash. Seating is miserable. Made the mistake of going during some cheesy bingo night. They felt it necessary to blast this guys voice on giant speakers so that you couldn’t even talk to the person next to you it was so loud. For bingo of all things. Not music. Bingo!!

Bartender Alana seemed half drunk and far more interested in flirting with the men at the opposite end of the bar, with her back turned, ignoring the rest of the bar, than doing her job. Finally got her attention to make a second drink order after waiting for 20 minutes, and after waiting even longer for the drinks, she forgot about us entirely. Had to intervene her flirting to cash out. Great drink, absolutely terrible service.

One is reminded of the 1980 "Miracle on Ice" when one devours the new pizza menu at Forester. How in the heck did these cats come up with this brilliant, most-tasty in Idaho pizza when so-called nearby specialists can't rate a 4 in the field??.. It's as if Bruce Springsteen suddenly dropped a white paper on Quantum Computing.. Gosh. And on top of that, the best bar, the best game / music scene in town. Count me a fan.

Nestled within the picturesque Shore Lodge in McCall, The Narrows Steakhouse offers a sophisticated dining experience that beautifully marries refined Northwest cuisine with breathtaking views of Payette Lake and the majestic Salmon River Mountains. This upscale eatery has quickly become a sought-after destination for those looking to indulge in exceptional steak and seafood dishes, all while enjoying an inviting atmosphere. The restaurant boasts an impressive collection of over 450 wines, meticulously curated to complement its exquisite menu.
Our server was great and I felt like everyone was on top of everything here. Very comfortable and it overlooks the lake. We got the French Onion Soup (not too frenchy and not too oniony. it was just right) , Grilled Peach Salad ( loved it. I ate the arugula, cheese, and prosciutto together and all the other stuff together), Bison Ribeye with garlic and truffle butter (this is really good and not gamee at all). The palette cleanser sorbet was excellent and so was the bread, butter, oil, and balsamic. I also added shrimp and asparagus separately which were both fresh and great quality but a little bland on the flavor side so that’s the only reason I did 4 stars on the food. Overall we loved the food and experience! Definitely will go back!

The appetizer, soup and my wife’s entree were 6 out of 5 stars, giving this place a 5 for value, but there is a lot of work management should tailor to make this a 5 star experience for everyone that visits. I called ahead and got the table closest to the lake with windows on two sides. The view was great, but a couple hiccups with an unnecessary follow up call and text to try to confirm, was total overkill. When I call to make a special reservation I don’t need multiple follow ups. I’m a professional and hold myself accountable to my appointments, I don’t need multiple attempts to ensure my visit. Total value was great for my wife and I. $200 for a6course meal and a couple drinks each, pretty fair. I’ve had lobster bisque in 7 western states and this was the most delicious lobster bisque in my opinion. The jammed pork bellie appetizer was amazing with a perfect sear on the fat and the oven bake to finish made the fat melt in your mouth like jelly. I will definitely be back just for these two dishes. Desert was really good and entrees were both good. My rack of lamb was so delicious I finished it, but the crust on the sear was over and had a strong noticeable burnt taste. I provided the feedback to the kitchen. The atmosphere was beautiful and calm. My wife and I had a very peaceful experience, but I see an opportunity to make some improvements to truly make this a five star restaurant. Prices should remain the same, but management needs to hold a 95% perfect excellence standard rather than the current 85% excellence standard that was presented. Service staff performed great, Bart was a pleasure and really took care of us.

Delicious, tender steak. The sides were flavorful and complemented the meat perfectly. I got the surf and turf and the carrots and asparagus were amazing. Every course was a work of art. Our complements to the kitchen! But what really made this a wonderful experience was the view over the lake and our server, Roman. Roman was friendly and always available right when he was needed without hovering. Drink refills appeared as if by magic and the bread platter was never empty. My husband and I highly recommend The Narrows.

Was told I had to try this place as my sister had one of the best steaks of her life here. Side note she has traveled a lot and eaten a lot of nice meals. My girl friend and I had an appetizer salad and two entrees. The majority was good however one of her scallops was a little undercooked. The real star was the bison ribeye that I ordered. It was the best steak my girlfriend has ever had and one of my top 10 steaks I have had. We happened to go in on Sunday and there was one server (Matt if I recall) and he did an excellent job with the five tables he was working as the only server. Thw support staff also did a wonderful job as well. Overall we were satisfied with the while experience.

We came for our 30th Anniversary (I mentioned this in the reservation request). We were seated by the windows as requested. But we were surprised no one even said "happy anniversary" .

Lovely place to have dinner. If you can get a seat next to the window so you can take in the view of the lake. Tables and chairs are very comfortable to tuck in to and enjoy dinner and drinks with your loved one. Jordan was amazing! She was hugely attentive and accommodating! So much fun to chat with as we went along in our dinner adventure. At the end of the night she remembered that we had two poodles we were taking our leftover steaks home to as a special treat. She drew the cutest poodle on our take out box! Such a beautiful touch! We will be back! Thank you Jordan for being so fantastic!!!!

I ate here with a friend while staying at the Shore Lodge. We had a reservation on a Saturday night and were seated immediately. Our server was friendly and attentive. The bread service was tasty. I got a Caesar salad, and my friend had the lobster bisque, both were delicious. We split a larger steak as we didn't want to have leftovers in our hotel room, our waiter had no problem with this and even had the kitchen split it onto 2 plates for us. The steak was great and cooked well. We skipped dessert but they do offer sorbet between courses as a palate cleanser which is always a nice touch. If I was ever back in McCall and wanted a steak, I would absolutely come here again.

Nestled in the heart of McCall, Payette Dream Coffee House and Diner is a delightful spot that promises to kickstart your day with its exceptional coffee and mouthwatering breakfast options. Open bright and early at 6 am, this charming establishment offers a cozy atmosphere where you can savor everything from hearty breakfast burritos and fluffy omelets to delectable waffles, soups, and stews. The inviting vibe makes it an ideal place for both locals and visitors alike.
Wonderful place - we were welcomed by a very kind and chipper staff who checked on us regularly. They politely refrained from giving us our assigned table until they were sure it was spotless. The food is very good and offered a nice taste of my southern hometown during this trip in the frigid northern landscape. The restaurant is very clean and well-kempt with eye-catching decor. My only small warning is that the tables are Sharpied on with biblical scripture and the choice of music is Christian radio (however it's not played too loudly); if this makes you uncomfortable you may not enjoy the environment as much, but regardless of where your spiritualism lies, the other wonderful elements will quickly distract you. This place is certainly a dream to me.

I don't believe there is any management in place. Watched a young teen get hired on the spot while I was eating. As I left I saw he was already busy serving ice cream on the coffee shop side with no apparent training. Waitress only spoke to us to get our order drop it off and drop the check off. Never even asked if things were right. Forgot our waters, coffee and left the bell peppers in my wife's loaded hash browns. Good thing she isn't allergic. Ultimately this place needs to be a tighter run ship with better training for staff. We couldn't even wave the waitress down because she was overworked and was handling the coffee shop next door as well.

The vibes of this place are perfect. The directors chairs are amazing and the Initial Attack is worth leaving the ski hill to order. There’s a large space, enough room to host yourself or a large group. The covered outdoor area is enclosed and has fire pits which make it cozy.

We heard the food truck was good too but didn't try that. Next time.....

Always love stopping off at Broken Horn for a pint or two while visiting McCall. Love the back seating area that places you right next to the brewing equipment. Newer food cart serves up smash burgers and wraps that is top notch!

An awesome place! We went for just one beer and ended up grabbing some lunch and came back for another round. Even though it's been around for eight years, it's off the beaten path so it's easy to miss. Which, according to some of its patrons, is how they like it. Definitely more of a "local" vibe than other breweries in town and that is what makes it so great. Everybody (and their dogs) were super friendly and willing to share some local knowledge of the area that we rarely get anywhere else. It doesn't hurt that the beer was excellent, too! Just make sure you call to see if they're open before you go. Because it's only outside seating at the moment, their hours are dependent on the weather. Check out their website for more info. Definitely our new favorite place in town!

I cannot say enough good things about this place. I did a flight sampling plus an amber seasonal beer topped off with a burger from the food cart and amazingly talented live music!!! My first stop in McCall and it did not disappoint!!! Give this place a try you won't regret it!!!

Extremely disappointing... we bussed own own table to have a clean place to sit. We saw a ton of pizza boxes and everyone in place was eating pizza. We ordered and it was the single worst pizza we have eaten anywhere in the world. The dough was raw as in white and still chewy, it was slimy. Toppings were disappointing but what would you expect on a raw pizza which took 28 minutes from order to table and 5 minutes from table to trash. I wouldn't wish this food on my worst enemy or inlaw... stay away.. stay far far away.. the box cardboard was better than the pizza attemot.

I’ve been in McCall most my life, the “cafe” at the ice rink used to be incredible, whoever owns this new restaurant has no ambition to clean, make good food, or give good service. It’s one of the grossest kitchens I have yet to see. I’ve worked in food service for 10+ years and have seen what customer service SHOULD be like. I was grossed out even getting hot chocolate from there to watch a hockey game. It took them 10+ minutes to get hot chocolate. The “owner” or “manager” was sitting on the couch yelling over at the lady serving us behind the counter “do you need any help over there?” Instead of just getting up and helping. Lazy people, bad service, gross kitchen (needs deep cleaned BAD, you can see the grease pile up on the ceiling - it’s yellow). Would highly recommend someone to contact Valley County health inspector- not sure how they are still in business.

I miss the restaurant that used to occupy this space. TJ’s was so delicious and well-kept!! Big Country’s food is icky and the seating area is unsanitary. I would not recommend it unless you are ice skating and you need a quick, bottled drink.

Stood at the counter for a couple minutes and the guy working never saw us. He was having a personal phone conversation with someone where anyone standing at the counter could hear his conversation. Not impressed. Maybe it's better when it's super busy but he was not paying attention to what was behind him. We promptly left and took our business elsewhere.

What an amazing place to eat. After the three day weekend in McCall we decided to grab breakfast for heading home. This was by far our favorite place we ate. The food was fantastic. The fancy coffee drinks were great. The atmosphere was pleasant. The service was terrific. Overall will ear there again when in town. Prices are very reasonable for the location.

Such a beautiful place with patio seating. I had a huckleberry latte that was to sweet for my taste but was good. Hubby had the Mountain Man and LOVED it with eggs, potato, and chicken fried steak all with my side of biscuit and gravy. He couldn't stop raving about that biscuit! I had the ham omelet that was huge and very good. Lovely experience!
Kym — Google review
First time coming here and the out side seating with the view is awesome! Buuuuuut, the batter they dip the French toast in is different and kinda un-flavorful, and couldn't be cut with a knife. The pancakes were the same. I'm not sure what oil they used to cook stuff in, but it all tasted different and I still can't put my finger on it. One older lady was serving which was great, but the younger ones couldn't care less to be there.

Brunchette on the Lake in McCall, Idaho exceeded our expectations and left us thoroughly impressed. We were initially referred to this charming eatery by fellow campers who spoke highly of its delectable breakfast offerings, and we can confidently say that their recommendation was spot-on. Upon calling for reservations, we were fortunate to secure a table promptly, as they happened to be experiencing a lull in business. The Ham Renaissance Omelet was the highlight of our meal, and we decided to split it between us. Even with sharing, the portion was incredibly generous, leaving us happily satisfied. To complement our meal, we indulged in a refreshing carafe of Mimosas that were poured generously, adding an extra touch of delight to our dining experience. The breathtaking views of Payette Lake only added to the charm of Brunchette on the Lake. We couldn't help but be captivated by the serene ambiance as we savored our meal. The staff members were friendly, welcoming, and always ready to offer recommendations or answer any queries we had. One aspect that impressed us was the ample amount of food we received. The omelet and the side order of biscuits and gravy left us with enough leftovers to enjoy the following day, making it a great value for money. The combination of delectable food, scenic views, and attentive service made our visit truly memorable. Overall, we highly recommend Brunchette on the Lake for a delightful breakfast or brunch experience in McCall, Idaho. Whether you're a local or a visitor, this charming establishment promises a satisfying meal, friendly staff, and picturesque surroundings that will leave you wanting to return for more.

This restaurant is SO cute and everything was amazing! The prices were reasonable, the portions were big, and EVERYTHING was amazingly tasty! Our waitress was fantastic and we were so impressed! I ordered the breakfast burrito and it was amazing! The home style potatoes were also SO good! My friend ordered the classic breakfast and the chicken sausage was super tasty! We also loved that it came with bread pudding as a side without an up charge-and it was delicious!

The mimosas tree is a fun thing to take with a group, you can choose up to 3 flavors and they were all good! Also fresh pressed orange juice is available if you want to have classic mimosas. My friend was right and they really have one of the best French toasts l had in my life. The waffles were fluffy, maybe a little too much fluffy. We enjoyed our brunch and l hope next time the terrace will be open bcz it’s the second half of may and it was not open yet (maybe it’s a staffing thing) anyways would love to come back and try other things and l highly recommend! 🥰

The fresh squeezed orange juice is just an amazing touch! The orange juice is that good, combined with very friendly staff and an amazing atmosphere, this place is everything we were looking for in our visit to McCall! Very generous portion sizes for the country fried steak and classic Benedict and both were amazing. If we lived local this would be our go to spot, we will be coming back!

Nestled in the heart of Seattle, Starbucks has become a beloved coffeehouse chain that captures the essence of cozy café culture. Known for its signature roasts and delightful light bites, this inviting spot also offers complimentary WiFi, making it perfect for both casual meet-ups and productive work sessions. Located conveniently upstairs in an Albertson's supermarket, it's a hidden gem where friendly baristas craft exceptional drinks that keep customers coming back for more.
Treated myself to my first peppermint mocha of the season after skiing Brundage all day. I was so shocked to see this Starbucks was on the second floor of an Albertson’s. There was a roaring fireplace, perfect view of the Christmas tree down the street through large windows, and plenty of clean seating. The barista was working totally alone and was really sweet. She made my drink quickly and it was perfect! I think whenever I get my usual iced coffees there’s just so much room for error with ice levels, coffee color etc so getting a hot peppermint mocha was so easy and enjoyable 🎄☕️

I knows it. Gotta support the Little Guy. The Mom and Pop (or is it now Parent and Parent?) But gosh, what a fine surprise, this relatively dim-lit cafe upstairs from the fluorescent grocery. Realized later it has its own entry via stairs from parking lot. Super setup, you almost feel you’re in a lodge, and are briefly thankful for the far-reach of the great Seattle coffee power..

Anchor Restaurant is a hidden gem nestled by the lakeside, offering a delightful mix of seafood and hearty chops. This casual eatery features a spacious deck where you can enjoy live music while soaking in stunning views of Payette Lake. The menu boasts creative dishes like popcorn shrimp and tempura-edamame rice, alongside classic favorites such as tacos and fish n' chips for those who prefer something familiar.
We stayed in McCall for a week and ate at the Anchor restaurant almost everyday. This place has a great selection of plates and all of them are delicious. This place makes it easy to order a plate, some drinks and watch the boats go by. Definitely recommended after a day on the lake!!

Walking in this restaurant smelled very clean. The patio was nice with a great view and access to go walk out to the lake. We ordered the chicken salad and the flat iron steak. I was not overly impressed with the salad for the price the lettuce had not been picked through and chicken tasted/seemed to be microwaved. However, the steak was prepared perfectly. The flavor of the vegetables and crab sauce that accompanied it was amazing.

The most underrated place in McCall. It’s tricky to find because it’s below the Yacht Club, but definitely worth your time when you visit. It’s easily some of the best food in town and the prices are reasonable. Love their creative takes on some of their dishes but if you’re also feeling less adventurous, tacos and fish n chips are available. Our waitress (wish I remembered her name!!!) was incredibly impressive. They were slammed and it appeared she was the only head staff there and she was crushing it. Attentive and giving every table the love they deserve but was quick and efficient. Truly some of the best serving skills I’ve seen! She was brunette, maybe mid 30s?? If this sounds familiar give her a raise ASAP!!! Can’t wait to come back.

Great local bar! Clean environment, friendly staff. Beautiful view of Payette lake, bar overlooks the lake. I had a Long Island iced tea, and it was very generous on the liquor. I could only get through one fourth of the drink before it got to my head. My friend got an old fashioned and it was spot on. Definitely going again the next time I am in town.

The service was very slow. There was only two waitresses running the whole place. The waitress was at least nice.The food for the price point was terrible. My husband had the huckleberry salmon. The presentation was poor and the rice was undercooked. The only thing I liked was the calamari fries. Everything else, Expensive and tasteless.

I wish I had more good things to say about this establishment than that the view of the lake is spectacular and the cocktails were well done. If that's all you have there, you will probably enjoy the experience. To be fair, we didn't try the appetizers or bistro plates so cannot comment. The entrees were really bad. It was clear that the food was not freshly cooked--dry, stale, canned just begins to describe it. The pairing of (incredibly salty) sea beans with lamb shanks just doesn't make any sense but without getting too Gordon Ramsay, Please Mr or Ms Restaurant Manager, take charge of your kitchen staff before you become one more resort restaurant cliche.

Came here for an early dinner on Saturday night before Christmas. We were the only people in the dining room and we were served by the owner. Food was excellent. I had the appetizer Gaucho Baguettes, it was perfectly seasoned and prepared. My husband loved his tacos. I also had a blended large strawberry margarita which was also very good.

It was OK. Service was slow. We had to wave them down for refills and to order. The were only 2 other tables and 2 servers. So poor service isn't acceptable. Food was good. We ordered cheesecake for dessert and it was a small slice (so don't share!). It had a nice atmosphere.

I am from outta town and I was just passing through. I decided to stay in McCall over night and wanted to have a few drinks and dinner so I ended up in the South side grills cantina. I was greeted by a friendly bartender who I found out later had just began working there a month ago. I had best experience in a restaurant that evening than I can remember. The food was great, the drinks were not weak but not to strong. The bartender/ server was extremely polite and friendly. I will definitely go back next time I am in McCall. I hope that bartender is working there still.

$14 per plate for a buffet that is really only 4' by 2'. Very sparse. Only a shell of the restaurant I remember a few years ago. The aircraft is even gone off the roof! Best of luck to you.
