We sat on the back patio on a beautiful Saturday for lunch. The food was delicious. We all ordered the hamburger and fries. For dessert we had cookies they were homemade and very yummy. The landscaping in the back is beautiful and so peaceful. We even got to see a helicopter land for lunch! The service was great, the establishment was clean and all the staff were very friendly.

What a wonderful treat to find in Sweet! The short ribs and romanesco were divine and the setting sublime! Well worth the drive from Boise to experience this unique steakhouse. The surf and turf was delicious, though my husband didn't care for the cinnamon in this dish, a heads up in the menu might be helpful. Waitstaff could be more knowledgeable about the menu.

My wife and I went here last minute with no reservation. Upon our arrival, we took a chance and was warmly greeted by the gentleman at the door. The hostess was awesome did not turn us away and made arrangements to get us a seats. Our server, Ivy, was excellent. She was friendly and attentive to our needs. The Cowboy Prime Rib was masterfully prepared and tasted amazing. We also shared Crab Cake appetizers which was fantastic and ended with the lemon cake dessert. The entertainment for the night was "Good Time Charlie Music." Charlie did not disappoint and topped off the atmosphere with his country music. This was an overall truly fine country dining and I would highly recommend Anderson Reserve.

A perfect retreat for a special occasion, and very much worth the drive! My husband and I visited for our wedding anniversary and the experience was nothing short of perfect. After we were escorted to our reserved table, we were greeted with champagne!For an appetizer, we couldn't decide between the Crisp Halloumi and the Burrata Di Mozzarella. Our server's personal recommendation was the Crisp Halloumi. It was topped with a berry puree and balsamic reduction. IT WAS PHENOMENAL. Next time I plan to try the Burrata Di Mozzarella, but I'll probably have to order some of that amazing Crisp Halloumi too!!I had the New York Strip Oscar (topped with blue crab meat and bearnaise sauce), service with garlic mashed potatoes, asparagus, and baby carrots. The steak was cooked to a perfect medium rare and the addition of the crab meat brought it to a whole new level.My husband had the 24oz Cowboy Bone-in Ribeye, also cooked to a perfect medium rare and served with garlic mashed potatoes, broccolini, baby carrots, and a bourbon peppercorn sauce.Everything was cooked extremely well and very delicious.For dessert, we opted for the cheesecake!On the way out, we decided to purchase some of their house-made chorizo. When we cooked it with eggs for breakfast, it was delicious! I do feel it was slightly under-seasoned, but the meat quality is superb.

Quite a drive (over an hour from Nampa) but worth it. Our 21st anniversary. Property and restaurant are beautiful. Everyone there were very kind and helpful. Great service and atmosphere. Split the 16oz bone in New York Oscar steak with my wife. Cooked to perfection! One of the most flavorful steaks I have ever had. Bernaise sauce and crab were fairly bountiful and excellent flavor. Complimentary champagne for our anniversary was a nice surprise. Appetizer and dessert was good. Definitely a little pricey. Even splitting an entre, salad, appetizer, and dessert added up pretty quickly. Definitely would recommend a trip out there for a special occasion!

Wonderful environment and amazing food. The live music was high quality. Steaks and appetizers were incredible. The deserts are not as impressive since they are not locally made but they are still good. Would definitely recommend this for high end dining.

Dining at Anderson Reserve felt like time stopped from the beautiful drive, to the perfectly cooked food, and the serene setting. If you appreciate excellent food and are wanting an experience, this is it. We felt special from the moment a staff came out front to take our photo. I shared the New York Strip Oscar and sampled the lamb chops and short rib...you can't go wrong. Service was impeccable. Be sure to make your reservations well in advance. Note the seating upstairs may be a bit hard on old bones. We don't normally spend this much eating out but so worth it...more than any other steakhouse. Can't wait to try Sunday brunch!Dietary restrictions: Had gluten free options.

Anderson’s was great! Family run by great people working hard to provide an enjoyable experience. The food was impeccable. Yes, some may think it is pricey but the amount of food you get is incredible. I have eaten and paid much more at high end steak houses around the country and they are easily in the top three. Service was top notch. Ritchie was our server and he was attentive, fun and easy on the eyes per my wife. Highly recommend Anderson’s Reserve. Thanks for the great time, food and momma’s yummy cinnamon rolls.

Fantastic find just 30 minutes from star Idaho! We dropped in for lunch and had the “steak and frites” on their lunch menu. They were kind enough to substitute a small wedge salad for the fries for me, and also included a bourbon peppercorn sauce, which was excellent. The food was incredible! If you’re looking for a special occasion restaurant, this is one of the best that we’ve ever been to! atmosphere was relaxing and friendly. Richie our waiter was perfect in every way. Highly recommend!

We had a great experience at Anderson Reserve. Just a short beautiful drive from Boise/Meridian area.The owners are very sweet and we felt very welcomed. We felt like family as soon as we stepped through the doors.The ambience of the resteraunt and decor was perfect. The scenery around the place and the rolling hills was quite the site.The servers were very busy, but they still made sure our table was taken care of.Had the ribeye and it was very good! Great flavor and nice and tender. Loved the mash potatoes as well. Sea bass and the filet mignon was a hit as well. A bit spendy, but the experience and food makes it worth the drive and the tab.As we left, the owners gave all of us home baked cookies for free. Thanks for the great evening.

The atmosphere and service was top notch. The dinner from the appetizers to the desert was amazing. The cigar and whiskey silo is over the top..Way to go Paul and family you rock.

Very special place! Absolutely a stunner of an establishment in Sweet Idaho. Prime grade and dry aged meats, wonderful apps, fabulous desserts. We enjoyed our visit here so much. My only critique (the reason for 4 stars) would be that the sweet lady that served us was not really up to speed on the menu and pricing, not readily available, and didn’t have a service level of the establishment and price point. For a meal with this price tag I would hope for first class service. Would definitely recommend you visit though! We drove up for an evening and it was dark…. We cannot wait to try a brunch and enjoy the scenic drive!

This restaurant is by far the best we have been to in Idaho. Not only is the food and the drinks impeccable but the folks that own and run this are fantastic. Not only will we be back but we will frequent. As soon as you walk through the door, you feel like you are home. Absolutely the BEST we’ve had!

I've been meaning to check this place out. It was a pretty snowy day today and was half expecting them to be completely closed so I called in. Happily surprised I got the burger to go and it was honestly in the top 3 burgers I've ever had. I also really appreciated the fancy flaky salt used on the fries. Wonderfully nice people and very homey atmosphere. I'm glad I got the shirt to parade to my friends. I look forward to actually dining in and getting some nice cuts of meat.

On 1/18/20, KM and I visited Anderson Reserve for dinner.We started with an appetizer of Rocky Mountain Oysters with a Dill dipping sauce ($16). My maternal grandmother came from ranch and family, so this was not my first experience eating this dish. Are the presentation was beautiful, I found this version bland and dependent upon the dipping sauce for flavor.KM ordered USDA Dry Aged Prime Rib, slow roasted and served with Au Jus and Horseradish Crema ($50). I ordered the USDA Prime Grade Fillet, pan seared and topped with Candied Bacon Wrapped Jumbo Prawns and finished with Smoked Tomato Butter ($45). Both entrées came with Twice Baked Potatoes and Sautéed Seasonal Vegetables. In addition, we both ordered a Garden Salad ($7) with Blue Cheese Gorgonzola dressing.Our meals were beautifully plated and topped with micro-greens. Unfortunately, the emphasis on plating over function made it difficult for KM to cut her steak. She enjoyed her prime rib, but it was not the best she’s ever had, though it is certainly was the most she’s ever paid for one. KM’s steak was not as tender as it should have been, given she paid a premium for dry-aged meat. I later learned Anderson Reserve dry ages their beef for 3 days, which is not dry aging. I enjoyed my steak. Neither of us cared for our twice baked potatoes, which were dry. We were liked the sautéed seasonal vegetables, which were very flavorful.We wanted to order dessert but decided to skip it after learning it was not made in house, and our server was unable to tell us the source.Anderson Reserve does not meet ADA guidelines. The only way to access the second level is up a narrow set of stairs. If you have mobility issues, I recommend you reserve a table on the ground level.While we both had an enjoyable evening and enjoyed our meals, we felt they were overpriced.

We pretty much loved the entire experience, with one small complaint. I'll start with the complaint first- we ordered two cups of black coffee with dessert, pretty sure it was Foldgers. I think a place like this could have had a better after dinner coffee. That's the worst it got for us!Everything was cooked to perfection, service was on point, great cocktail and whiskey menu, several desert choices. I don't even like Brussel Sprouts, but my side of bacon, parmesan brussel sprouts was divine. Made me kinda like them lol.We will be back for sure!

As unique a place as you can imagine and what a beautiful setting and facility. The food was fantastic - they butcher and dry age all of their meats! We celebrated our anniversary and had a wonderful time. We were fortunate enough to meet the owners and compliment them on their great place and divine food. This may be off the beaten track but we’ll worth the effort.

Just a fantastic building, grounds and wonderful family owned eatery. Wife and I went for the brunch, thats a tasty and filling 3 course brunch mind you. I grew up hunting the area, but dont get around Sweet/Ola area much anymore. Really enjoyed the whole feeling and vibe of the place and sort of going back in time for me. Fantastic people running a fantastic restaurant. Quality ingredients only. Love it A+Looking forward to the next time already.Word is they are building a seperate bourbon/scotch/cigar store/tasting room? Next door. Look forward to it.

The restaurant is adorable. Love the building and town of sweet. Owners are really welcoming when you arrive. Unfortunately we had bad service. We only saw him a few times. The flies were awful . So many flies that we spent our dinner just swinging at flies. I went to bathroom and you see right into kitchen and the potatoes were mashed in circles on a tray on bottom shelf next to the floor and bathroom. I had just eaten some of those. My Husband steak had a tangy strange taste to it. He spit it out into a napkin. My t bone was ok but definitely not tender. We took our parents and raved how good it was going to be so a bit disappointed. Just lower your expectations a bit and bring a fly swatter. Beautiful scenery.

My husband and I usually pick Anderson’s Reserve steakhouse as a place to go to for special occasions. They have good food and a great view with friendly staff. But they have a birthday tradition that really made me feel uncomfortable. We had went there with a couple of friends for my birthday last night, and I learned that at the end of the meal they were going to make me bend over the railing of the restaurant and have the male owner spank me with a large paddle in front of the whole restaurant after singing happy birthday. I get that birthday spankings are a common joke, and that this idea seemed funny at first glance, but when I found out that they have it structured to where the husband that owns the restaurant is the one to spank the women I couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable. I’m not accusing him of anything, I just felt uncomfortable. I feel that if you’re going to have something like this in place you need to understand that that is probably crossing a line for most people, and if they say “no” than you do not push back on their response in order to peer pressure them into taking it. Once I told the waiter that I wasn’t doing it he told me I didn’t have a choice in the matter, to which I reminded him that I actually did have a choice. Then the husband that owns the restaurant came over and said he was going to come “paddle me after my meal”, to which I informed him that he would not be doing that. He ignored it and said he would be back anyway. I feel that this was supposed to be a light-hearted and funny experience, but being a 30 year old female I really didn’t feel comfortable with this at all, and felt very frustrated that they kept trying to force me into a position that could very much be taken inappropriately. My husband went downstairs and finally told them to not do it, which they finally listened and just gave me a free dessert. I don’t know if I will be returning for any special occasions after my experience last night. I’m am very disheartened.

Anderson Reserve is one of my favorite places to go to for a fine meal.. outstanding service in a beautiful setting.Update....After several years of going to Anderson Reserve, it remains my favorite place. Great location to go to for an afternoon utv ride down Johnson creek trail. The staff are friends after one visit. The chefs have changed a few times but the outstanding quality of the meals remains the same. The back patio has been enlarged and is completely covered now. The new cigar bar is going to be amazing.. Take a nice drive and have a great meal with great people.

We had a great brunch. Nathan was our server and he was just wonderful. The food was amazing and the brunch selections were good. Coming back in 2 weeks for a triple mom and daughter brunch date!Parking: Parking is just a gravel lot, be careful when wearing heels.

We finally got out for a nice dinner and we celebrated my birthday.  I have heard great things about this restaurant, but everytime I thought we could check it out, we couldn't make it work.I am so glad that this time we were able to.  This was one of the greatest nights and highlights of 2020.Location:First, it is located a little out of town, but well worth the drive.  The restaurant and grounds were beautifully lit. The parking lot is dirt/gravelAmbiance:Upon entering, you realize this is not your typical fine dining steakhouse. The servers are wearing flannel and the crowd is mixed between nice clothes and boots and hats.  There are beautiful lights with a country feel while being elegant.  It was a great mix.Service:We were greeted fairly quickly and checked our reservation for 2.  A table upstairs was getting cleared for us. The sight wait gave us time to talk and admire the environment.  While we were waiting, we chatted with the owner for a while.  He was super friendly and funny.Once to our table we we're given water and menus.  Our server was very knowledgeable with the wine menu(only beer and wine) and the food menu. She gave great suggestions for both!  The water was always kept full and the place was perfect. Not too slow, but you never felt rushed.Food:The food was amazing. We started with an appetizer, then salad, main dish, and dessert   The filet was cooked perfectly rare.  The sides were fabulous and the dessert was creamy cheesecake.Final thoughts:We had great discussions with the owners and our servers throughout the evening.  You really feel like family when there. I didn't want to leave and can't wait to return.  If you get drinks an appetizer and main dish expect to pay around $100 per person.This is a fantastic experience, and fantastic food.

Arriving to the restaurant is a beautiful experience, the building and surroundings play off each other very well. The interior ambiance is also very nice and brings that rural farmhouse feeling.The tables upstairs are all high stools around a barrel with a glass tabletop. This setup is very uncomfortable because the stools are too high for the table. I had to slouch over to eat. See the photo of my hand on my knee compared to the height of the table.The drinks we ordered were very weak. I ordered a double Tito's and soda and could hardly taste the vodka. My wife ordered a specialty cocktail and hers was also very weak.The wedge salad was pretty average. They use Ranch dressing instead of bleu cheese, and for the price, it is very small.The dry-aged NY steak I ordered was made as requested, medium-rare. However, the vegetables and potatoes that accompanied my steak were cold. The plate presentation was nice.My wife ordered the Cajun Shrimp which were average. We both couldn't taste any blackened seasoning and the quinoa was a little bland.Overall, the atmosphere is nice but the rest leaves more to be desired.
