One of my favorite spots to eat in Boise due to the food and the atmosphere. The exposed sandstone walls and legislative/supreme court theme is fun.
I've been there many times with many people and nobody I've been with has ever had 1 complaint. The Borah Burger with the balsamic reduction is easi...

This was our second time there and second review. The first review was glowing. Not so good Friday night. In all fairness, the food was superb and our personal server was nice. But the evening did not start well. I had made reservations but did not realize they had any bar height tables and chairs w...

We celebrated an anniversary here last week and loved it! The restaurant itself is unique, with beautiful stone walls and furnishings with a local political flavor. We were treated quite well by the manager and server, and the chef offered complimentary tastings of a delicious soup. We ordered the S...

Valentine's Day/Retirement special occasion dinner....Sat down right @ 5:00 reservation time. Seeing later tables being served, had to ask for a server @ 5:15 to get cocktails which were good. Got red balloon glasses for a chard. Server poured away, no tasting that $100 bottle. I ordered lamb chops,...

My husband and I were in town for the night as he was covering a game. I found this place on Yelp and was really excited to give it a try!

We were seated promptly and (unfortunately) were next to a loud, rowdy, very drunk group of women. We couldn't hear each other talk across the table because o...

Ambiance is fantastic, appetizers were good, entrees were underwhelming, service was great. Restaurants are about the food first and foremost, so I weighted that aspect more than the others. We would return for drinks and apps, but we get few dinners out and we probably will not do another full d...

I couldn t wait to try this restaurant the atmosphere is very nice and cozy. We ordered an appetizer first and waited at least 40 min. Another couple came in and sat behind us they ordered their meal and also an appetizer. They had already gotten their appetizer and then their meal and we still had ...

Valentine s Day s prefix menu was most disappointing. French onion soup should never be so broths with crunchy onion. Prime rib should be served with some flavor without having to smear raw horseradish just to void grainy rare meat.
I had a high expectation but I am sorry to say, I was highly disg...

We don't get into town for dinner that often and when we do, we've had our share of over rated new venues. Our Boise friends who invited us down for a show, know their way around the local eateries but had not tried yet tried out Capitol Cellars. We were all delightfully impressed! The limited m...

Two couples for an early pre-event dinner. Hostess, manager, waitress all super friendly and helpful. French onion soup and Caesar salad both great. Prime rib and salmon as well. Bass and pasta just ok. Other couple had Irish coffee, which they do often. Said it was the best they have ever had. Whip...

I don't normally write reviews, but is worth the time. I came here for breakfast,l. Best egg, ham, fondue cheese breakfast sandwich I've ever had. Breakfast is usually pretty simple, but they didn't forget presentation, preparation, or service. I'm about it.

Here is a hidden gem in Boise. A political themed menu in the basement of a downtown building. Great staff and excellent food. I was quite pleased with my entire dining experience. I will go back and looking forward to bringing friends for a lively debate over some delicious Idaho based food

Cool atmosphere in a great downtown location. Wait staff were friendly, but actual service was subpar... Took our order, came back 5-10 minutes later to retake our order and then still missed several items, the appetizers came at the same time the meal came. Food was well plated, but lacked flavor -...

Stopped in at the end of lunch one day and couldn t be more happy with my experience. Food was excellent, delicious French onion soup and sandwich. Service was attentive, but relaxed and I was able to work for a hour with their good WiFi. Cool space downstairs.

A unique and pleasant fine-dining experience. Tucked away just off the beaten path under an unassuming stone apartment building, Capitol Cellars offers modern local fare presented unpretentiously as real food, rather than meals of reconstructed cubes, flakes, pools and drizzles that have largely su...

My only complaint (and more my hubby's) is that they only serve beer and wine, no liquor. The food was unbelievable. We stopped in in the last night of a 10 road trip and I had the Ways and Means (pasta with pork belly) and hubby had the daily Steak of the Union. Both amazing. Would definitely stop ...

As we quarantine, we need, now more than ever before, the comfort of good food. While Capital Cellars is on our regular round of dining, we also consider it a special occasion spot. After checking out their special Easter menu, my bro and I decided it would be a good choice for our Easter dinner.

The sandwich was nothing special to write about. Unfortunately the sandwich was delivered with a heavy hand of aioli which took away from the sandwich. The fries were ok as they got very soggy quickly given the herbs they added to the fries. The jambalaya was not jambalaya imo. The rice...errr..riso...

The food is mediocre. $24 for a sea bass, some bland rice and 8 green beans. My waitress was ok. I order a soup and salad for me, I said I will have a soup and salad, and she took off and didn't take my wife's appetizer order. When she came back I had to say that was just for me, my wife needs to or...

I went to Capitol Cellars recently with a group and had a lovely time during happy hour on their patio. The food (Halloumi fries) were pheromonal! And while we all sipped on different beverages, I enjoyed the 2C pinot gris. It was refreshing and hit the spot after a long day of work! Will be back so...
