At Saint Lawrence Gridiron we pride ourselves on bold flavors, craft techniques, & good times. From origins of starting a food truck in 2012 to a full-service restaurant and bar in the middle of downtown Boise, we smoke all of our meats including brisket, ribs, pulled pork, and fried chicken in-house bringing our Southern-style menu and flair! We believe in a scratch kitchen and to enjoy every meal made slowly and with passion. From coming in for our famous brunch on weekends ( shrimp & grits or brisket benedict are must try items) to having a few drinks during happy hour, or getting a group of friends together for dinner, our atmosphere is fun & welcoming!

You can smell the smokeed meat as you approach. Its a Small space, well staffed, good food and nice happy hour specials. I got the PBR Platter, loved the brisket and ribs. The pulled pork was a little dry. I found the greens a little under cooked and the coleslaw was bland but the pickles and pickled onions were good. It’s a lot of food, so come hungry. Oh and it comes with a PBR tall boy!

This was our second brunch stop of our weekend in Boise, and this was also a great choice. Gavin was our bartender, and he gave us perfect service, while Chris was the server on duty, and he helped out with food recommendations, city recommendation, and everything in between. I had the Naked Sunbather Brown beer, and wife had a French 75, and both were worthy starts to the Sunday. For food, Chris recommended the Brisket Benedict after I gave him my laundry list of possibilities and it didn’t disappoint. One thing I will say. All of the ingredients tasted high quality, but the brisket itself was a game changer. Tasted like it was cooked with extreme care. Wife had the shrimp and grits and loved the dish. The atmosphere was nice and energetic. No TV on for sports, but that is not really the experience at this place. We sat at the bar, but the table experience looked quality too. I spaced on taking additional pics of the restaurant, so sorry about that, but have included two pics of our food. The restaurant is right on 8th, so you are in the heart of everything post-meal. I highly recommend visiting here for a meal or a drink during any Boise fun, and see you there (the next time we are in Boise)…

We had dinner here on a Saturday evening. The service was excellent. We didn’t wait to be seated and we didn’t wait long for our food to be served. I highly recommend the Gridiron burger. The meat is very tender and tasty. I would skip the fried chicken. It could be more tender. The doughnut holes are delicious. I hope to return to try other menu items.

I had high hopes for this spot. I love southern food! The people were very kind and the food came out quickly and drinks were good. But, there were some serious issues with the food. The cornbread was dry as a bone and genuinely awful. We couldn’t even eat it (it was kind of like trying to eat sawdust). The other bread that came with my husband’s meal was just okay (but also not good). They didn’t bring out butter with the cornbread or the other bread, so we had to ask for that. They brought “honey butter,” but it had almost no honey in it (flavorless, saltless butter). I dunno, to be a southern restaurant should have the cornbread on lock. It’s not hard to make good cornbread. Otherwise, we had the fried chicken and the brisket. Both of the meats were just okay. Brisket in my book should come with some fat on it. Ours was very very lean, which makes it dry. The fried chicken was okay but needed more salt. All in all, I don’t think we will be back, because when you are paying $28 and $38 for two meals, you want it to be fantastic in all regards! If the meals were more in the $15-$20 range, I wouldn’t be so picky!

I visited Saint Lawrence Gridiron on 03/24/2023 and it was a delightful culinary experience! This place definitely gets a solid 5 stars from me.

One of the standout items on their menu is the Dirty Bird sandwich ($16.00), and damn, it’s a winner. The combination of tender Fried Chicken, tantalizing Louisiana spices, and just the right amount of chili oil creates an explosion of flavors in every bite. The sandwich is elevated further with the white BBQ sauce, perfectly balanced house slaw, and the tangy house pickles. It’s a harmonious symphony of textures and tastes that will leave your taste buds dancing with joy!

Another must-try item is the Sixth Man Burger ($17.00). The bacon jam adds a smoky sweetness that perfectly complements the grilled onions, while the special sauce adds a unique, zesty kick. The cheddar cheese melts beautifully over the juicy patty, and the jalapeños provide just the right amount of heat. Each bite of the Sixth Man Burger is a mouthwatering experience you won’t soon forget.

Apart from the exceptional food, the atmosphere at Saint Lawrence Gridiron is warm and inviting, with friendly staff who are knowledgeable about the menu and happy to offer recommendations.

The overall dining experience at Saint Lawrence Gridiron is undoubtedly worth a visit. If you’re craving innovative and mouthwatering dishes, make sure to give this place a try!

If I had to describe my experience here in one word, it would be sneaky. Before going, I checked the restaurant’s website and saw they offered Sunday happy hour, but when we arrived there was no mention of it on the menu and our server didn’t bring it up. Only after I asked did he reluctantly confirm it—and then took nearly the entire remaining 30 minutes of happy hour to return and take our food order.

There were five of us, and while we enjoyed each other’s company, the meal dragged on for almost three hours. My fried chicken was decent, though boneless and less juicy than I prefer. The bread pudding was extremely dry—more like a biscuit with whipped cream—and we didn’t finish it.

The biggest issue came with the bill. I was charged for a side salad that I hadn’t been told would cost extra, and the server seemed surprised when I asked for it to be removed. They also added a 20% automatic gratuity despite our group being five people, even though their website states it applies to parties of six or more. Most of us tipped again without realizing until one person caught it.

Overall, the food was fine, but the lack of transparency left a bad taste in my mouth. I wouldn’t return.

The food and drinks are both excellent. You get the impression that there’s a real chef and a real bartender, and that both are passionate about their craft.
The staff is very friendly and professional.
Atmosphere is a bit loud and echoey, but not more than most other places.
