28 Best American Restaurants in Ketchum

“First time visiting this restaurant and surely will be one of our top places to dine while in the Sun Valley area. Incredible menu and wine choices. It was hard to choose which dish to try because everything sounded delicious! Excellent service!! Loved everything about this restaurant 😘“

“Great atmosphere! Had claims, and the best with sauce you will ever have. Also fresh local baguette. Highly recommend we’ll go back again.“

“Great service. Nice outdoor patio.Great food and drinks.“

“10 Star Review! We hosted a private dinner for 11 people at The Grill at Knob Hill. Will, the manager was so great to work with. Will, and the chef curated a beautiful Autumn Idaho Dinner. Our guests were from Boston and New Hampshire so we wanted to present the best from Idaho. We started with a Fall Moscow Mule for cocktail, then a beautiful nut, dried fruit, cheese, honey, roasted garlic baguette plates for each guest, then a savory butternut squash soup with basil olive oil drizzle, the Autumn salad with shaved cheese, nut, pomegranate was awesome, the main entree was Idaho trout with an herb butter and wagu steak, rice pilaf, the famous popovers, and finished with Fall home made stone fruit cobbler. The wine choices by Will were awesome. Autumn in Sun Valley - Ketchum, the beautiful golden aspen trees, and a fantastic dinner and amazing staff at the Grill at Knob Hill was the perfect evening.“

“Great atmosphere, great service, and great super food. Highly recommend!“

“Celebrated my birthday there and could not have enjoyed the entire experience more!! The hotel is beautiful with amazing views in a prime central location. The staff is incredibly helpful and kind. I really loved the music on the patio. This is a dog friendly hotel, so we were able to have our 4 legged kids join us for our celebration. We had a place to store our bikes safely and enjoyed the proximity to bike trails. Our stay was very pleasant and we are excited to return soon. Thank you Limelight!!!😍“

“Excellent in ambience, with fresh ingredients including their produce and homemade pasta. We cannot sing the praises of the Covey enough. We booked dinner reservations during the busy Trailing of the Sheep Festival weekend. While this modern elegance meets cozy farmhouse fine dining restaurant would have been an ultimate experience for a date night, our expectations were FAR exceeded with our family of four (including two younger children). We enjoyed the mafaldine, lamb cassarecce, and butterleaf dishes. They accommodated a delightful simple pasta for our youngest one, and encouraged them to create artwork while we waited for our meal. Their artwork was proudly framed and tastefully displayed on the wall by the bar. The evening ended with a delightful sweet surprise by the chef/owner and his dog. We will be back, with our family, friends, and for a date night!“

“The blueberry pancake was okay but the Blackstone Egg and hash browns were superb. Great coffee as well.“

“From the Miyagi Oysters, herbed garlic butter Escargot to the Carpaccio with truffle oil and cheese and the Filet Au Poivre et Morilles- everything was perfectly done
When the owner starts with high quality meats and produce and the chefs prepare each dish beyond what you thought it could be- you are in bliss
We live 3 hours away from you and we will be back.
Thank you
Merci

“Awesome food, R&R jugs a winner. Crissie our waitress was next level highly recommended“

“Loved walking in here. The staff instantly made us feel like we were welcome. They explained the menu and drink orders there, told us all about their brews. Food was fast, delicious, and the staff talked to our kids. Great experience and will 100% stop by next time we are in town.“

“Hi I love this place so much what great service and enjoyable company!! I highly recommend this place!! Great food great service!!“

“This is hands down my favorite coffee shop in Ketchum. I’ve tried pretty much all of them, and this place is just on another level. Great coffee, delicious breakfast, fair prices, and the staff were super friendly. Honestly, if I could give them 10 stars, I would.“

“Been here twice and it was absolutely great both times. They have a fantastic and amazing talent for creating a menu that showcases seasonal favorites in a way that you have never enjoyed them before and likely can't anywhere else. In addition to their culinary talents, their service is equally amazing.“

“Delicious high quality food and great service❗️One of the best lunch spots here in Ketchum😋 Or possibly THE best❗️“

“Absolute best lobster bisque soup anywhere. I wish they can ship some. Great friendly staff always and people just need to chill out or stay home. Great place to eat.“

“Pretty good, affordable lunch option. Felt healthier than some of the other meals we ate while in town. Not much seating inside; so we got our wraps to go and went back to our hotel patio across the street. Can order half a wrap but can only customize full size. The wraps we tried were good. The turkey one was pretty heavy on lettuce; however it was still ok.“

“Best sandwich in town, Solid old school staff, solid owners, in fact it couldn’t have been taken over by a better set of brothers. One of the only solid original locals joints left in town that isn’t pretentious There’s not enough I could say about Johnny G’s without sounding like I’m over fluffing them and sounding like a brown noser. The DelBello is the go to. Tip them well they deserve it“

“Food was excellent, staff was friendly & timely. Great dinning on the deck.“

“Excellent service and great food!!!!“

“Tired from a 12 hour drive - great food - reasonable and we got to have the dogs on the patio!“

“Absolutely beautiful building and architecture. Very friendly atmosphere. The cashier was very patient with me when I kept changing and adding onto my order. Thank you! 😊“

“We love taking our out of town guests to Bigwood Grill for the view, the outstanding service and incredibly mouthwatering food. We had the pork ribs on the specials board and they were the best ribs I’ve had since I could remember. Our guests could not stop talking about them 🙌❤️ Thank you everyone who makes Bigwood Grill amazing. You make us look good when entertaining guests 😉. Thankful for you all!“

“I haven't been to the Cafe because I live in Boise, but I buy their bread from Albertsons: AMAZING! I love that the flour is grown locally and there are only a few ingredients, which is how all breads should be! For someone with food allergies, I was thrilled to find breads I can eat safely; when I realized they were insanely delicious as well, I stopped buying all other bread! If you ever expand a cafe in Boise, I will be there every week!“

“Bowl of soul. Awwww…..so good.“

“A sports bar, plenty of drinks to choose from. They ran out of brisket and chicken wings, hence the 4 star. It's very loud and had to yell across the table. For $25 the catfish dinner was a great choice. Three pieces of fish which were thick and not fishy tasting. Came with hush puppies, Mac and cheese, potato salad, slaw. The slaw had no taste and the other two sides were bland. I asked for salt and pepper, never got it. Asked for more water, never got that. The server split the ranch dressing, she said she would bring another, didn't get that. So, the service kinda sucked. They had 49ers, Bears game on, sthat was decent. We didn't have to wait to long for a table, it's first come, first serve. We lucked out that a couple got tired of waiting for their food to come and they got up and left! I don't think we will go back while we are here.“
