Nestled in the heart of downtown Boise, Saltbrush is where elegance meets adventure, and every dish tells a story. Located at 506 W. Grove St., Boise, ID 83702, Saltbrush has quickly captured the hearts (and taste buds) of locals and visitors alike with its elevated cuisine, warm atmosphere, and a sprinkle of something… magical.
Big Flavor Meets Big Vision
Saltbrush isn’t just a restaurant; it’s a love letter to food, wine, and Boise itself. Born from the passion of Neil Grant, a Cape Town native with a knack for crafting unforgettable dining experiences, and Erik Johnson, a Boise local turned California wine country chef extraordinaire, Saltbrush is all about blending world-class flavors with Idaho roots.
The two culinary masterminds met at a wine event in 2020 and realized they shared a dream: to bring a fresh, elevated dining experience to Boise, one that’s rooted in community and brimming with personality. And boy, have they delivered.
Food That’s Fresh, Local, and Full of Life
At Saltbrush, the menu doesn’t just change with the seasons—it sings with them. Imagine Duckfat Potatoes with sauce gribiche that melt in your mouth or a Mibrasa Roasted Half Chicken with peri peri sauce so good it practically dances off the plate. Every dish is designed to showcase the freshest, most vibrant local ingredients, turning simple moments into unforgettable bites.
And here’s the kicker: the menu is always evolving, so every visit feels like a brand-new culinary adventure.
