Quinn’s Restaurant & Lounge

My Fiancé and I went to Quinn’s last night and it was less than desirable. The food was extremely over priced especially for what arrived at our table on plates and our server was inattentive.
I did however learn quite a bit about the server behind us as she was conversing with her table for example her recent move from St. Louis to Boise to be near her Grand mother and Mother. When our server brought our food to us he did not offer condiments, I actually went to another table and asked for their catsup. Later I went to the bar for malt vinegar.
My Fiancé did tip our waiter well in the end, saying wait staff count on tips as part of their wage. Well if they count on it for survival then one should give their best service to ensure financial durability.
In the end I am glad we tried Quinn’s so I can cross this off my list. For the same price or less I could have gone to Tap House or 10 Barrel Brewery and had hand battered fresh fish and chips and my Fiancé could have a scrumptious (as he put it) burger. Next date night we will.

Quinn’s Lounge is one of those venerable historic establishments on the Boise food scene. This was and still is the go-​to venue for late night food after the bars close. I remember everyone would go there after Victor’s Lounge closed in order to eat breakfast in order to soak up all that booze! They also have a great value dinner menu, and brunches at Quinn’s can’t be beat.
If you love to play Pool, Quinn’s back room is «Pool Central». Don’t even get me started on their Artichokes. No one out there makes them better than Quinn’s.

Just ordered the Grilled Cheese Supreme and mozzarella sticks for my fiancé and I and they were delicious! My delivery driver was really polite and friendly also, will definitely be ordering from more often!

We have been going to Quinn’s for years, but the quality of the food has gone progressively down in the past few months. The service is always good and servers are uniformly pleasant. The food, however, is the reason we go there. Today, the lunch took over an hour to get to our table. Corned beef was cold. Cabbage was cold. Potatoes were warm. Two slices of white bread was not toasted and just sat on the plate looking sad. The corned beef was so tasteless that we took it home and fed it to the dogs, who did love it!

Is cheap food ever a good thing?
Short answer: No
Long answer: When you cover frozen food with sauce an crap, it’s still frozen food.
This is just another example of people who hate working and don’t care about food quality or hospitality. Extra star for karaōke night, but it’s still not worth the time.

This place was recommended by a local friend. Ate here several days in a row for breakfast and it was amazing every time. The breakfast platter with corned beef hash was perfect and the house potatoes are filling and full of flavor. Everyone one else’s breakfasts looked good with good portion size. Service was spot on.

Everything was F-​ing delicious, from the breakfast casserole to the corned beef hash. Even the pancakes were beyond good, for pancakes.

Last night I was served the worst Corned Beef and Cabbage I’ve ever eaten. This was Sept. 11/​2014, not St. Patrick’s Day. Hopefully, a restaurant with an Irish name and a shamrock logo would offer a decent version of this classic. Thin, dry strips of corned beef, little potatoes from a can, (I kid you not). Cabbage was flavorless. My server was friendly and professional. Not her fault she had to deliver such a poor product. Price was reasonable, but I won’t be back.

Serviceable food and yummy finger steaks. When the service is good, it is great. But when it is bad, it is horrid!
Plus, the place seems obsessed with the smoking ordinance and posts passive-​aggressive signs about where smoking is allowed. Probably time to give up the smoking fight and move on!

Stopped in with a freind while we were waiting for a tow truck. And she said she had eaten here a few times back in the day and the food was pretty good. Well that’s not the case anymore it seems. Bar food that was just ok. When you bit into a still partially frozen chicken wings… It’s pretty much game over for me. This place has seen better days I think. In need of a good cleaning and updating. As we walked out we noticed a guy singing in the bar that was doing a pretty good job. So maybe a good place to go for live music. I will say the staff was trying hard but when the bill comes and the frozen wings are still on the bill… Well not the place for me. Sorry!

I don’t care what you say, this place is awesome. Great corned beef hash and a free bottle of champagne if you order two full breakfasts. The food is good for the price. It’s comfortable and weird. Good weird.

If you’re in the mood to play the lotto, Quinn’s is your place. Three separate visits have yielded three very different experiences. Our first occasion to Quinn’s was a great experience. We were so impressed we were more forgiving of the second visit (food was poor quality and overpriced). Third visit would seal Quinn’s fate for us… same results. Soggy fries, way overpriced side orders, and mediocre food quality overall. Would not recommend. There are other places in town with much better food, particularly chicken fried steak.

I returned this evening to find that most of the old crew had gone elsewhere and were promptly replaced by a COMPLETELY different scene.
The place was filled with young, late 20 somethings, jarhead Marines and the 4 African Americans who reside in Boise. It was actually a pretty interesting scene.
4 Stars for one hell of an effort and actually pulling it off.
As a side note their is both a disproportionately high number of bouncers and penis in this bar and a decided lack of breasts. Sausage anyone? No thank you…

Horrible food today! Eggs Benny hardly any ham, sauce is a powdered mix yuck! Used to be so good! I will always say the staff is great!

Was surprised with the food it was actually pretty good! I don’t like that you can’t order alot on the menu until after five kind of limits your choices don’t be alarmed when you first go in looks there is definitely deceiving the waitress was super nice and helpful will definatly go back!

Stopped for lunch while traveling since it had good reviews on Unilocal.Was a bit nervous after walking in, but the food was really good. I had a side salad and everything seemed fresh and just prepared and my chicken was really yummy. Husband liked his burger too. It has a bit of a dive, sports bar feel with the TVs and lotto ads, but the service was good and so was the food.

Love the restaurant, but love the Irish dancers on St. Patty’s day the most!

Always good, great prices…

We arrived at Quinn’s on a Saturday at around 4:30. We were able to pretty much pick any seat in the house. Our waiter was awesome, attentive and informative. We both ordered steak dinners — they came with salad and an awesome baked potato with all the extras (sour cream, cheese, bacon, butter and green onions). Both steaks were cooked to perfection and were tender as well as tasty. If you are looking for an established and awesome place to eat, Quinn’s is the place. We also hear that their breakfasts are out of this world and are served all day. Big thanks go to the staff and food at this awesome place! We will definitely be going back!

ok place to chill, grab a beer and nacho’s. Sorry for the short review… gotta eat!
