Have eaten here several times with people who love it and choose to travel 40 miles from Twin Falls just to eat here. I have never had anything special. The food is average and bland. On my most recent visit I had the catfish sandwich with onion rings. The onion rings were greasy. The catfish was ok, but nothing special, and a bit greasy.

I have heard the food was really good at this Hagerman spot. My girlfriend, husband, toddler decided to give it a try after our walk today. My first impression was that the place was gross. Old carpet and dirt/food under every booth. I was really disappointed because I was expecting the dining area to be very different based on what I had heard. The appetizer, the spicy chicken, was good. From the menu description I expected it to be much hotter. The flavor was very good though. I didn't feel I should have any fish or seafood here. Dirty dining area could very well mean dirty kitchen. I had the bleu cheese burger which was surprisingly delicious for what it was. Enjoyed the potato salad as well. My husband's steak was more like "well" than " medium-rare". When he brought that to our waitress's attention she apologized and gave him a free take home dessert. (I am enjoying that right now. Delicious.) My girlfriend said her shrimp was unremarkable. I probably wouldn't go back. Even if a place is old or doesn't have the fanciest furnishings it can still be clean. I just felt uncomfortable.

The first time I came here, we walked out. (and I don't think anyone noticed) It was a busy holiday weekend and we were completely ignored for at least 20 minutes. It was probably a year before I was willing to give Snake River Grill a second chance, but I did and I've actually been back a couple times. When the staff is not overwhelmed, the service is actually decent and the food... also decent. Nothing special. Just decent. But there isn't too many choices in Hagerman, Idaho, so, you get what you get.

Great lunch spot. Kids ate well. My son had a turkey sandwich and mashed potatoes and loved it. Nice salad bar with carrot salad and coleslaw too. Nice homemade taste and great break from camp food. Take the brownie treat to go or have pie or cheesecake there you wil be glad you did.

Snake River Grill is definitely not vegetarian nirvana. But any restaurant that has a Vegan selection at all in a town of less than 1,000 people is definitely going to get a special shout out from me. I had bow tie pasta marinara. I didn't ask for anything special to go with it, and they don't have a "vegetarian" option for that dish on the menu. But when it came out, it was loaded with fresh, nicely sauteed zucchini, asparagus tips, mushrooms, soy beans and other veggies, even capers. The salad bar is small, but everything on it was fresh, and the cucumbers were especially fresh and crisp. No Vegan-friendly dressing per se, but they do have oil and red wine vinegar, which is just fine with me. My husband had a fish platter, which included fresh panko breaded mahi mahi that he says was excellent, and my son's PB&J was made with this nice, thick fresh bread. Yummy! It is a bit pricey, about what you would expect for a restaurant in a small town that caters to tourists, but it was worth it. I would definitely go back.

We had heard lots of good things about this restaurant from the locals. My two sister, and nephew took myself and my husband there for our birthdays. We had heard of the exotic meats on the menu to include crocodile, ostrich, and even Yak. I am an adventurous eater and was excited to try some of the delicacies. We entered the restaurant and seated ourselves as directed by the sign at the door. We must have been seated at least fifteen minuets before we were acknowledged. We were given an extensive menu, and it all looked very appetizing. In fact we had a hard time deciding. We decided to share a somewhat exotic appetizer which consisted of calamari, sturgeon, and catfish. We also ordered our drinks at this time. It took forever to get our drinks. We finally placed our order. the waitress was not very helpful in directing us to any specialties. When asked she would always say, "yes, they do a good job with that one." She only discouraged me from ordering the pork chop served on top of mac and cheese. she informed me that the mac and cheese looked dry. I decided to play it safe and ordered the sirloin steak with mashed potatoes. My partner ordered the "hand breaded "chicken strips with tator tots.My older sister and nephew each ordered the chicken fried steak, and my other sister ordered the "hand breaded" finger steaks. We all opted for salad bars. Before I give you the details on the entrees let me go back to the appetizer. The assorted fish platter was horrible and all looked like a deep fried in distinguishable mess. There was no creativity to the plating what so ever. The waitress pointed out that the long pieces were sturgeon, and that the "odd shaped" pieces were the catfish and the other "things" were calamari. The calamari was thick rubbery greasy and lacking any flavor what so ever, except the taste of the rancid oil it was cooked in. The sturgeon was at least edible and tasted a lot like frozen fish sticks. The catfish was muddy tasting and very mushy. If anyone has eaten catfish, you will know that this is a sign of old, not fresh and most likely frozen catfish. We next proceeded to the salad bar. The salad bar was small and quite basic. The one saving grace was the carrot salad which had pineapple and coconut. The salad bar also included the dried out pre-buttered french bread and store bought dinner rolls. There again at least the salad in a bag lettuce was edible. along with the bottled salad dressings. Next came the entrees. Which I might add came out one by one by one. My steak which I ordered medium came out more medium rare, I did get mashed potatoes, which were plain, I had to ask for gravy. I was given the option or brown or white. Know I understand why they did not specify beef gravy. The brown gravy was just that flavorless and brown. The steak had been rubbed with an indistinguishable spice rub. it did not complement the meat at all. My partner got his so called hand breaded chicken strips and tatot tots. The chicken was flat greasy and dry. the tots were cold with no seasoning. it was apparent that both had come out of a box. My younger sisters finger steaks, were little burn pieces of breaded meat, with a strange flavor. Again, these had to have come straight from the freezer to the deep fryer. Now last but not least , the chicken fried steaks. My nephew summed it up. He said, "Uncle Joe, this tastes like waffles!" he was right. The gravy had an unmistakable maple syrup sweet taste. It was all poured on top of the once again freezer to deep fryer processed meat patty. This was still one of the best birthday dinners I have ever had. It was so so bad it was funny. We are all still laughing about it a month later. It is even more hilarious, since the restaurant ended up featured in Sunset magazine!!!!!
