Trillium

Went here to celebrate my cousin's birthday and we could not be happier. The atmosphere was charming and welcoming. The staff and specifically our waitress, Jill took very good care of us. Friendly and attentive! I highly recommend the shrimp Mac and cheese, cobbler and the chocolate cake. The menu items are pricy but well worth every penny. I will definitely return.

This place was absolutely delicious! Everything me and the wife ate we fully enjoyed. The szechuan cauliflower appetizer was incredible. The iceberg salad was out of this world. Both the turkey sandwich and the Philly sandwich was so delicious. Highly recommend having a nice dinner here. The service was absolutely amazing thanks to are server Lauren. Dont forget to try the cheesecake.

Absolutely unique menu and everything looked delicious! I ended up with the steelhead trout and cheesy grits. This had so much flavor! High quality, fresh, absolutely delicious food! The cocktails are great too! Lots of fun and different combinations from the bar. The service was great too. Everyone was checking on me and getting what I needed. I’d love to come back and try more!

No place is perfect, but here it gets as good as it gets (mostly). Trillium is owned by The Grove Hotel and they work together for an award winning service experience. We did stay 2 nights at the Grove and dinned in the restaurant on NYE. See our separate review for the hotel. We made dinner reservations for NYE and spoke with the manager about our anniversary celebration as well. They sent up a bottle of Prosecco to our room and we decided to bring it to our dinner. Normally, there is a $15 corkage fee, but since the wine was provided by the hotel, they waved the fee for us. Our server, Mallory, was beyond accommodating, professional, yet relaxed with a bright personality. The table was preset with an ice bucket for the bottle we brought and I can't imagine a bad table location in the restaurant. The room is beautiful, the seating large and comfortable with generous spacing between tables and an open kitchen in the back. I believe they have sidewalk tables in the warmer weather as well. See attached photos with descriptions for what we ordered, but I definitely recommend the Szechwan cauliflower appetizer, NY steak frites entrée and don't forget to get the house-made dinner rolls! We ordered a salad to share, which the kitchen generously split for us, as well as the cauliflower app., smoked trout poutine, the aforementioned steak and the potato crusted halibut entrée. Mallory checked back with us just enough to ensure a pleasant experience, but not so much as to be an interruption. The cauliflower hit all areas of the palate. This dish would please carnivores as well as vegans; sweet, succulent, slightly spicy, smoky and crisp. The poutine was not as successful. I can see it being well liked by others, but for us, it missed the mark as the fish was dry and the curds a bit too large and toothsome. No complaints here, just not for us. The huckleberry salad was light, fresh and refreshing, but we didn't notice the huckleberry vinaigrette's signature flavor, yet still a delight of a salad. My steak was seared a perfect medium with ample cognac cream sauce, deeply rich mushrooms and I opted for the Idaho baked potato instead of the russet potato straws, which was huge and fluffy. My husband's halibut was less successful. The entree was entirely too light & delicate for our liking. The cauliflower puree was over buttered and runny, while the fish was slightly dry and had a mild funk to it. He did not inform me of this whilst seated, otherwise it would have been mentioned it to Mallory. There are many other interesting items on the menu that we are sure to return to try several more, as we live quite close by. Desserts were offered on the house for our anniversary. I chose the hot mixed fruit cobbler, which was quite flavorful, but had an unbalanced ratio of cobbler to fruit. I definitely would have preferred more streusel topping to pair with the fruit, as many spoonfuls were just cooked fruit. I did mention this to the server, but also that I was not unhappy, which is true and I was fine with keeping the dish as is. The chocolate hazelnut cake was just as decadent as to be expected, rich and chocolatey. We did have some leftovers and Mallory happily boxed them for us. We were sure to tip well and covered the sparkling wine and desserts in the tip. I must add that this was so far my best dining experience in Boise as you can see from my recent reviews for Richard's and Owyhee Tavern.

Fish & chips for me while the misses had the Cajun shrimp Mac n Cheese. Quick dinner, great atmosphere in a convenient downtown setting. Polite and friendly service that was formal without being stuffy. Food was good. We've been here several times before and the Mac n cheese entre seemed shy on the cheese and mushrooms compared to previous partakings. Three fish pieces were tasty yet small, closer to "nugget" size than filet.

This place is so good. The Delulo is a reuben and it was amazing. The salad is a huckleberry salad and looks very eloquent and tasted really good. I forgot to take a picture of the cauliflower before we ate it cause it looked and smelled so good. If being vegan was like this I would never eat meat again. If you haven't been here yet go it was incredible and the bloody Mary's are Spicey.
