50 Best American Restaurants near Star

“We love to go to Proof. We are always satisfied with the quality of food and their service is impeccable. They go out of their way to accommodate your requests. We haven’t tried eating outdoors as yet but we find the indoor dining to be cozy and even when it is crowded, you can still carry on a conversation without raising your voice. Just love their pizza and sandwich selections. Very yummy! We also enjoy the mimosas and IPA choices.“

“Best food i have ever had Service is a little slow but the food is fresh atmosphere is relaxing with the lights. I would get there club sandwich it is so spot on“

“Sullys is still a favorite in Star for dining and drinks! Nice atmosphere, great pours, and the food is always good! Reasonably priced! Kelly and her staff are awesome!“

“My “ranch boss” sandwich came served with just brisket, no chicken, no ranch. I took it back and they put chicken on it, still no ranch. The brisket was shredded into tiny pieces, making it hard to eat. Flavor was good but lacked ranch.“

“We went to celebrate my grandmas 96th birthday and the only seating was at the bar. We almost left but decided to eat at the bar. Jayden was our server and she was AMAZING!! I mean AMAZING!! The food was outstanding, drinks were top notch. Thank you Jayden for the amazing experience and service. We were very happy.“

“I'll be back every saturday for the breakfasts. It's on the second floor overlooking the planes and runway. The chicken fry steak was excellent and the coffee was good.“

“Service and food were fantastic. Jessica and Kyle were amazing. The checked often to see if we needed anything and if everything was as we wanted it. The chef is amazing. The salmon and cod were perfectly cooked.“

“We enjoyed the small restaurant atmosphere where one can get to know the chefs (Mike, included). Food was excellent…have the Tempura green beans and then the Brutus Salad is excellent with chicken or salmon. The Atlantic salmon was grilled to perfection (medium with delicately medium seasoned saffron rice). Try the saffron infused Creme Brulet for dessert and enjoy live Jazz and after-dinner drinks at the Sidecar. However, make reservations if you want a table for dinner and after-dinner entertainment…take out available.“

“The food is always excellent, everyone of the staff are the most cheerful and welcoming of any number of breakfast eateries! My go to place for days off and weekends.“

“Good was so good and the waiter that was serving us was on top of his game.“

“The food and drink at JaKs Place is excellent. It is close to our home so feels like a good neighborhood bar. The service has been quick and pleasant and the entertainment is fantastic. Highly recommend JaKs to anyone that hasn’t tried it yet.“

“I have to give Dylan credit amazing server in a lot of fun. We had some strange cheese appetizer that I would’ve literally thousand pieces of if I could get away with it. My main course was fettuccine Alfredo with chicken. I find myself eating a lot of the bread too. Lol please please please very great option for lunch. Affordable how are you my company? Enjoy the side salad with soup and I really had to tell you, you should order the nitro cold brew with cream if you need to wake yourself up. Again, compliments to the service, and the amazing layout of this restaurant I’ve been away from Boise for 15 years, in a very pleased to see some of the new additions as well as an eagle Cheers! Thanks again !“

“Fantastic food! Our first time going there and everyone in my ground loved what they ordered. They have a pb and j burger which is my absolute favorite! Also there is a table for kids with some toys which was perfect for us.“

“Came to this establishment when they were extremely busy. No issues with this establishment they promptly took our order and had all of our food within 15 minutes. Everything tasted good and was hot. Waiter was very attentive and was a gem. Should have gotten his name for a shout out... but definitely a very nice establishment with good service. Really this place I would give a 4.5 as of the time I am writing this...“

“Our server Buffy was awesome, she suggested drinks that both my wife and I loved. The bartender, Josiah made my wife's huckleberry lemon drop perfectly, my wife loved it. My cider was amazing. My wife has the classic burger with fries and I built my own burger. They were some of best burgers we've ever eaten. Definitely going to be a regular stop from now on“

“The Wisconsin chain made it to Idaho. Good too! The place is clean as a whistle, the food is fairly priced, and salads are no-cost alternatives to fries. Make sure to order a frozen custard. The staff go out of their way to be friendly and helpful too. This place is a winner in every way, except that the area's traffic is terrible.

A second visit was enlightening. I was early for a lunch date. The manager let me have a solo cup for a drink while I waited. Then I skipped the cup when my lunch date showed up and we later ordered our meals. Very nice customer service.“

“absolutely delicious 🤤 one of my favorite restaurants now.“

“This place is the best in Meridian! The staff knows what customer service is, especially Alec and Emma! The food and choices are great! I’m not much of a drinker so go the there strictly for the food! and the service and vibe! Have and will recommend to everyone I know!!“

“I love Their FISH TACOS! The best!“

“We had a great dinner at Harvey’s! My boyfriend’s parents live in BanBury and we have never seen it so packed on a Friday night. There were a lot of new staff training and they handled it exceptionally. Our food was wonderful, I can’t complain about a single thing. We are picky drinkers and they accommodated every request. Shoutout to our server (I wish I remembered her name but she was cute and had dark dark hair) and shoutout to the chef for getting all of our orders out correctly and tasting fantastic. 10/10 tonight guys ✌️“

“Great place for a date night, we went to celebrate our anniversary which happens to be a couple of days before Valentine’s Day. We choose Crave as a suggestion from friends Ana family and because it had the red romantic vibe (we thought). The lights outside weren’t red like the photo, they’re blue, I think maybe they alternate colors? We ordered a couple of drinks, spinach & artichoke dip, short rib dumplings, oysters on a half shell, lobster crab roll, Thai steak and noodles. Everything was good, except the dumplings which were a bit doughy for my taste. Overall I can see why this is such a popular Eagle restaurant. They’re good for a lot of different occasions.“

“I just had to write a review to acknowledge the great lunch we recently had the pleasure of having at Marie Callender's in Meridian. My friend and I were on our way home (to Council) from Salt Lake City and were looking for somewhere to have a good lunch, well this was definitely the place to go! It was the best meal we had in the last 2 days and it didn't cost us an "arm and a leg". and we each had a slice of pie!!! When in this area next time this is where to go!! Great staff as well!!“

“First time at Terri's Cafe. Food was great with general amounts, service was spot on and our waitress (Lyalka) was enjoyable.“

“My family and I went to eat here on a Sunday evening for an early dinner. I highly recommend calling ahead to see if there is a wait. This seems to be a popular place. We went around 4-5pm. As the evening goes on, it becomes busier, and it was nice to enjoy the quieter setting before things pick up. Their wait staff are attentive and kind. They work hard and make sure you are taken care of without over bugging you! The style of the restaurant is unique and clever, including artwork with cows, aliens, and a mix of farmhouse. The misfit and retro style seems to work for them. When the weather permits, they have a roll-up door in the front half of the restaurant that gives you a nice breeze of fresh air. I love their atmosphere. I had their Pineapple Express burger and fries. I 10/10 recommended this burger (personally I take off the mustard aioli or have it on the side)! This burger has so much flavor between the burger, ham, pineapple, and I like it with the pickles. Perfect hidden gem for Nampa!“

“Great Breakfast choices! Delicious food.. Small restaurant but cozy. Worth the 30min. wait to be seated.“

“we were in there Tonight about 7 pm , we Ethan he seemed to get upset when we took a couple minutes to order , he was flipping his Hair which was not up at 1st , then he laid his head on the counter ,as if to say Hurry up, he did put his hair up finally . Very unprofessional , didnt set a good Vibe , Food was awesome as usual ,but Ethan needs some Guidance .“

“I had breakfast there with my Mom this morning. The hostess Jess was very engaging with not only us but other customers as well. Very nice demeanor as well as accommodating.“

“OMG !! So I just had the best customer service from the manager tonight at Applebees, I wish I got his name anyway, he was awesome . I had my food delivered from a different service and my drink was missed and I called just to ask what happened, not a big deal by any means it’s just a drink, right . Well I told him it was all fine and not a big deal just wanted to figure it out. Didn’t know whose fault but The manager at Applebees 100% made it more then right, I appreciate him very much thank for doing what you did i hope you see this because you are doing Awesome ?“

“Been four times in the past two months since discovering the place. Food is fantastic.... service is hit or miss. Just left after waiting five/six minutes without acknowledgement by any staff after being seated, watched others getting served almost immediately after being seated. Please work on this.“

“amazing burgers! the trailer trash is an absolute must have along with incredible service“

“the food was fantastic and our waitress knocked it out of the park LOVE THIS PLACE“

“5 of us stopped in the end of July.Had our drinks and left.Loud,horrible rock type music and the bar menu that day was limited,unappealing. Some in our group go there often,rest of us no.“

“This is a great place for BBQ. They are tucked away in downtown Nampa and are worth trying out.“

“wonderful bar well kept awesome owners friendly staff“

“Absolutely love Janet’s Cafe.. I use to always go to the ones in San Diego. I’m so thankful they are up here in Idaho now !! The cafe is decorated so adorable and the staff is friendly.
Food is muah chefs kiss kinda good !
I love their granola, French toast, and they’re gluten-free muffins. Highly recommend“

“Amazing burgers and so many flavors of yogurt! I love holding paint classes here! ♥️“

“Let me begin with a disclaimer: I have lived a full life. I have kissed mouths that were made of sin and stardust. I’ve tasted truffle risottos in overpriced restaurants where the waiter looked down on me for asking for more bread. But none—none—of those experiences compare to what happened between me and Chili’s Baby Back Ribs. First bite? Instant goosebumps. I closed my eyes and saw my ancestors nodding in approval. The meat is so tender it practically slides off the bone like it’s trying to seduce you. And the sauce—oh God, the sauce—is like a smoky, sweet whisper in your ear saying, “You’re never going back to dry chicken breasts again, baby.” I was knee deep in bbq sauce. Let’s address the elephant in the Chili’s dining room: Yes. The Office. Yes. “🎵 I want my baby-back, baby-back, baby-back…” was sung. Yes. I wept a little imagining Kevin Malone wiping his mouth and going back for more. This isn’t just a meme—it’s prophecy fulfilled. This wasn’t dinner. This was foreplay. This was therapy. This was my Roman Empire. If loving these ribs is wrong, I don’t want to be right. And if this is the best thing I’ve ever put in my mouth (and trust me, the competition was stiff), then so be it. My mouth has spoken. And it speaks only the gospel of Chili’s. Amen. Pass the wet wipes.“

“I love the breakfast there and a large menu as well as the shopping after.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (and an extra ⭐️ for Lucy!)
We were seated immediately, and the food was delicious. Best part was our server, Lucy! She was on top of everything from start to finish and clearly had our entire experience in mind. Her helpful suggestions made the meal even better. Lucy deserves 6 out of 5 stars!“

“Ok 2nd time at Rudy's in Meridian and service both times was amazing, food was hot , fast and good and priced reasonably. Definitely worth trying...I personally love the Rueben, perfect mix of tart sauerkraut and thousand island dressing on marbled Rye, fries are crisp, Onion rings are perfectly cooked. Crispy wings are great.“

“amazing burgers with the most delicious French fries my favorite spot when I'm traveling up 95!“

“I had a great experience at Big Al’s thanks to our server, Logan. He was friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect throughout our visit. Drinks stayed full, food came out fast, and he checked in just the right amount without being overbearing. It’s clear he really cares about giving great service and making customers feel welcome.“

“Our company used the Meridian, Idaho location to cater breakfast to our office for over 160 people. All I can say is WOW. Everything was still hot and delicious. They were on time to the exact minute they said they would be here. We are very grateful and will certainly use them in the future. Shout out to Sarah and the Meridian Managers!! Thank you.“

“Of all the Golden Corral locations that I have been to, this has to be one of the better locations I've been to. The only reason for it not being full 5 stars is the fact that it's still just corporate chain restaurant food. Keep it up though. This is way better then most locations.

Vegetarian options: Great salad bar“

“Love this place! Great food, great entertainment & great service! Customers and staff are always friendly! My top favorite staff are December-Rose, Meagan, Teagan, Anna, & Derek! and of course, all the weekend bouncers!“

“I got the chicken stripes and husband got a burger everything was really good and we sat outside 👍“

“I have visited the Meridian RAM off and on for close to 2 decades. Recently the staff is outstanding ( the trainees are works in progress) My favorite server is Lindsey ( dark beautiful curly hair) - she is all business. Now if your lucky to be there on a day Stacy ( works in bar area) she is the smartest and most knowledgeable- she will make sure your shit is right! Greg is the pizza and drink master, any drink - he knows how to make it Look and taste even better! I would suggest you ask him for a ' G - shot ' one of his specialties. The food is solid, pizza crust the best ( when they don't run out) but overall, you can't go wrong stopping in a place where the management and staff care. The food and atmosphere are good if your looking for a good night out, ask about the specials - Tuesday happy hour is one of the best in the valley ( Giggy D's better) Enjoy!! Ill be back again soon #99“
