Having enjoyed dinner at Red Feather before—and being a long-time fan of Bittercreek—I was optimistic that brunch would deliver the same locally sourced quality I've come to appreciate from their sister spots. We were seated quickly and greeted promptly. I ordered the oatmeal soufflé for my daughter right away, while my husband went for the steak and eggs (medium). I held off on my choice but told them to go ahead and fire the other meals. A few minutes later, our server returned to inform us that the soufflé was sold out, so I switched to the biscuits and gravy for my daughter and eventually decided on the rancheros verdes for myself. Unfortunately, the experience went downhill from there. The biscuits and gravy took noticeably long to arrive and were lukewarm when they did—odd, considering most tables around us had already cleared. The “sausage gravy” lacked any visible sausage, which was interesting, although the flavor itself was still good. My husband's steak came out rare and bloody despite his medium request. After a 25–30 minute wait, he was starving, so when the server offered to take it back, he asked to keep the eggs and potatoes while they refired the steak. When it returned, it was well-done—past the point of medium—and they didn't bother to replate or offer fresh eggs despite the delay and the error. My rancheros verdes were fine but also lukewarm, with an overload of melted cheese that settled into a congealed layer by the time I reached the bottom. For a $75 brunch, the overall experience was disappointing—from execution to temperature to pacing. Red Feather has proven they can do better at dinner, but brunch was a miss.

I thought it was very average food at high prices. I don't mind paying the price when the meal is exceptional and this was ordinary. It was very loud. The service was prompt, but she forgot a few things, like my wine, and lemons for the water.

The food is amazing and I love that they source nearly all ingredients from within 50 miles of the restaurant!

Our server John was really great, super attentive. The drinks were a little slow coming but it was a busy night. My husband and I had salmon and halibut. The flavor was delicious but they were both a little overdone. I let our server know and he immediately offered to make an adjustment to the bill. I declined, my only intent was for him to let the kitchen know. Overall a solid dinner.

Cocktails are never to be missed here! We had two first night on the menu items - a new preparation of the burrata salad which was an outstanding tasty treat. I had the halibut which was new to the menu. Outstanding preparation (ordered medium rare) with ratatouille that was likewise awesome!  Strawberry Rhubarb Galette was a perfect finish to the meal. Service was excellent as always!

Very good restaurant. I wasn't all that crazy about being seated upstairs tucked way back into one of those two tables located in the upper north corner of the restaurant, but it certainly was a bit quieter up there and we had plenty of room at our table. It just felt a little claustrophobic with the ceiling being just above us, and the table across the small aisle also filled. As for the menu, we each enjoyed our drink and our chosen entre. We decided to be a bit decadent and share a dessert - the lemon and raspberry napoleon. Delicious! I highly recommend that item. Check-in at the outside host station was efficient, and the staff there actually checked on us more than once while the first person left momentarily to specifically check on our table. Clearly the staff places a priority on being present and attentive. Overall I highly recommend Red Feather. I don't live in Boise any longer, but I did for a long time and I always felt that Red Feather was a great, quality addition to the downtown scene. It remains a very good choice for anyone who wants a nice evening out in downtown Boise, and wants to be at a place that has some style and a sophisticated menu.

Calamari was very small portion for the price and it was not good at all. Looked like remnants from a frozen bag of calamari. Quite expensive meals compared to surrounding restaurants that we frequent. Wait staff was attentive.
John
My wife's order came out with the wrong side. My order and my wife's order came out cold and had to be redone. Service compared to previous visits was very slow. Background music too loud.
Randy
Great beer list and excellent dinner food (Korean chicken sandwich, lounge burger, fries), very reasonable price, nice atmosphere. We will return!
Kim
Delicious brunch with lots of good options for drinks and food choices. The biscuit sandwich was the best!
Food & service were good. We were seated next to the bar. A table in the dining room would have been more pleasant.
Mitchell
The wait staff was amazing. Very helpful, accommodating and responsive to needs and changes. Oh, and very friendly, too

We have never had a bad meal at Red Feather. We went in to try the St Patrick's weekend offerings of Shepard's Pie and Fish and Chips. Both were the best we have had at a restaurant. Their drinks are also very well balanced, and all staff are friendly and professional.

Came here on a Wednesday night for a date. I couldn't have been more happier with the service we received. Our waiter/bartender was very attentive. Old Fashion was delicious, the cauliflower was amazing and our main dishes where great. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect evening at Red Feather. Many thanks!

This experience happened to me maybe like a year or two ago but I feel like I need to speak on it the staff there was incredibly rude especially the bartender. I had just gotten there and he made me a drink that I didn’t like but I was paying a lot for it so I was going to drink the whole thing and pay for it regardless and he snatched it from me & took it back and kicked me out (called security) because I didn’t like it. He had overheard my conversation with my friend telling him i didn’t like the drink. I didn’t complain. Very unprofessional. After reading the reviews I guess unprofessional rude entitled stuff is normal at red feather.
