DINING
The talent in our kitchen shines, whether we’re grilling a ribeye steak or roasting a leg of lamb, serving applewood-smoked ribs, or baking up some homegrown Idaho potatoes. Our cuisine is innovative and elegant, yet refreshingly down-to-earth. Using local, organic, sustainable products whenever possible – rainbow carrots and golden beets, morel mushrooms, Lava Lake lamb, charred corn-on-the-cob – Ranch food is made in-house with the highest quality fresh ingredients. Local meats, cheeses, fruits and vegetables intermingle with both international and western flavors to create the unique Idaho Rocky Mountain Ranch culinary experience.
Guests begin each evening on our front porch – the perfect spot to enjoy a cold beer or a glass of pinot, washed down with the incomparable view of the Sawtooth Mountains. Appetizers start at 5:30pm, which is when the bar opens as well. Our sit-down, fine dining service begins at 6:30pm in the lodge (or outdoors, if you prefer!) with menus that are sure to delight. Local musicians provide the perfect backdrop to your evening three nights a week during our casual outdoor dinners. We can accommodate a limited number of additional dinner guests who are not staying with us, with advanced reservations.
Breakfast, picnic lunches and dinner meals are all included in your reservation cost.
Breakfast
A genuine smile, warm mugs and freshly baked pastries will be ready to greet you when you sit down for breakfast. On those cold mornings, our wood-burning fireplace will be there to take the chill off. We have all the essentials, whether you are craving one of our famous cowboy pancakes or a Greek yogurt parfait, freshly baked muffins or eggs-your-way. Breakfast is served from 7 a.m. – 10 a.m.
Lunch
Choose from among our hearty to-go lunch menu, and we’ll make sure it’s packed and waiting for you. Add fresh baked cookies, whole fruit, chips, one of our famous “oatey bars,” or some of our homemade trail mix from the wellness station in the lobby to take with you on your day’s adventure, or to enjoy later at the Idaho Rocky Mountain Ranch Hot Springs.
A La Carte Dinner
Sunday, Monday, Wednesday and Friday feature multi-course meals in the lodge dining room, or outside at the picnic tables, with irresistible menu choices. The children’s dinner program allows parents to enjoy a date night on Sunday, Wednesday or Friday evenings. With larger parties, we can stage outside dining with family-style service so everyone can taste all the offerings for that night. Appetizers along with beer and wine are available starting at 5:30pm with dinner seating starting at 6:30pm. You can relax, enjoy your evening and choose your dinner time. Off ranch dinner guests are welcome with advanced reservations, pending availability.
Family-Style Dinner
On Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday evenings, we offer our guests delicious, shareable entrees and salads without needing to choose a single option. Enjoy our smoked barbecue pork ribs, sliders hot off the grill, grilled salmon, or our curried cauliflower. Live music on the front porch has our local storytellers singing songs about the history of the area, playing lively bluegrass or country ballads, or even a bit of James Taylor to complete the experience.
Beverages & Special Dishes
Complete your dining experience with a drink from our extensive wine, beer and non-alcoholic beverage list. Though we do not have a license to sell liquor, we have an curated and worldly wine list, flavorful Idaho-centered craft beers, and unique non-alcoholic options to complement your meal choices.
Vegan, vegetarian and children’s menu options are always available, and special diets can be accommodated with advanced notice.
