Roosters Landing

Passing through Lewiston, the whole town is a bit of an experience. One of the most pivotal points on the Lewis and Clark expedition, this formerly beautiful valley is now a papermill industry town, with the air and landscape befouled by manufacturing and mining (I'm being literal - the air stinks and old-school mining companies dug holes, piled up rocks and then moved to the next hole). Maybe the city managers have lost so many battles to put a polish on this historic gem of a location, they have just given up.

Given the environment, none of which is the fault of Rooster's Landing of course, Rooster's Landing was a nice experience. The service was friendly, attentive and down home -- our waitress was Megan and was a pleasure, making jokes and keeping us watered, wined and well fed.

The service deserves 4 stars -- Lewiston deserves 1 star -- but rating 4 stars none the less because the steak was prepared as requested, the steak was very good, and the cheesecake was home cooked by owner. Great job to Megan, who really was helpful and great.

This restaurant is almost like the Idaho version of Joe's Crab Shack. It is themed and decorated.  However, because its in Idaho its a little more low key.  Our large group was easily accommodate and the waitress was awesome.  She brought us a ton of water without us pestering her and got all of our orders right.  We even got fast delivery emergency french fries during the meal.
Try the Hot Crab Cheese dip.  Its amazing.

Food- Ok, Location- On the river with available outside seating, Good menu selection including beer selections.  Our fries seemed stale and luke warm.  Inside of restaurant was nice with many things to look at including plenty of fish tanks.

Conclusion- We would go back if we were not very hungry and wanted a few drinks outside on the river.
