If ever you are visiting the totally charming town of Salmon, Idaho, be sure to stop for dinner at the Nook. You’ll be joining what seems like the entire town at the bar around back. Its so popular, you’ll be challenged to find a seat! But no worries, there are plenty of tables in the Nook’s other rooms, where you’ll be welcomed with some of the best service you’ll find anywhere. And did I mention the food? Try the trout. It is some of the best fish I’ve ever eaten. Delicious! Oh, I forgot to mention the steamers. If you’ve had steamers back east, you’re in for a treat. The Nook’s steamers are SO much better than anything you’ll get in Boston. If I drowned in the sauce, I’d believe I was in heaven. Yum!!!

Our dinner at Shady Nook was delightful. We started with the Steamer Clams. Yum! And so many. I had the ribeye, which was cooked to perfection. He had the Nookie Burger, which after a single bite, he declared was “the best burger I’ve ever tasted.”

Service was attentive, and I really like it when people are obviously proud of the restaurant where they work.

Stopped in for a light dinner + drink.. 💫🍸 The Caprese salad was absolutely DELICIOUS — so fresh and flavorful, and the lemon basil vinaigrette on top was the perfect touch. 🤩 I could honestly come back just for that! The clams were delicious too — a little bit of crunch, but still had great flavor! The service was amazing, and the bartender was so sociable, sweet, and attentive! 🖤 Overall, everything was fantastic — great food, great people, and a place I’ll definitely be returning to! Theee coziest lil place during fall! ✨🕯️🍂

Great food, especially there Shrimp Cocktails. It’s a meal in itself. Best Margaritas within 175 mile radius!!! Very friendly atmosphere. Nice and clean, no smoke orders to deal with!!! Great choice if you happen to be driving through!!!
