“I will have a hard time paring down all of the good things I want to say about AltaVita. The food is excellent. You can get a healthy -meal- that will energize and fuel your body instead of weighing it down for the same price as you could get a bag of grease, fat, salt, and carbs at a drive-through. Not only that, but Ray (owner) is so genuine and real! Plus he’s super thoughtful. He noticed that I was slimming down, too, and helped me with my choices so I could stay on plan. He even offered several substitutions , that I happily accepted, to make sure I was on Plan. The menu has something that everyone will love. It’s in a great location, and the owner is amazing. It’s a fantastic place for a lunch meeting for friends and work.“

“This really is the best breakfast in Idaho Falls. A cool diner vibe that has been upgraded to a brighter modern feel while still maintaining its classic charm. A very clever feat. Everything is pretty basic dining fair tuned to a more classic palate, but the sourdough pancakes are next level. Made daily from an ancient sourdough starter... you haven't been to Smittys without a plate of these. Just order an omelete, it comes with a shortstack on the side, plus warm syrup. While you're eating the omelets let the butter and syrup soak in. I wouldn't say Smittys is classy, but it IS a blue-blooded classic.Vegetarian options: You can order an build your own omelete with a large selections of veggies and filings.Parking: Never a problemKid-friendliness: Kids menuWheelchair accessibility: Easy front for access and parking“

“My wife and I have gone here twice and were impressed with how good the food was. The first day, the service was a bit slow, but they had a lot of new staff and faced a good amount of adversity with kegs going empty in the middle of a rush. The server was upfront and honest and was pleasant to see the owner/managers help their staff. The burger I ordered was spot on and the Japanese BBQ sauce with the wings is addicting. The atmosphere is nice and very comfortable with large TV's for sporting events. We did come back a week later (day before St. Patricks Day) and had their specials for the day which was shepherds pie and smoked lamb which were both amazing. If any staff and owners read this, please consider adding the shepherds pie to the daily menu. No ones makes an authentic shepherds pie like yours in Idaho Falls (perfect with a pint of Guinness). The service was a lot quicker the second time we went which tells me the first visit was truly an anomaly. We will definitely be back and one day hopefully conquer the burger challenge there!“

“Well as a fellow business owner, if it's one thing I can appreciate it's the difficulty it takes to create a certain atmosphere. Your business setting, the care people get from your employees, it all plays into what people see and feel when they do business. Well at the Rusty Lantern Diner they did so well with it all! I feel like I was transported to a time long ago when things weren't so complicated! Nice waitress, amazing food, good prices and off course an incredibleatmosphere. It's a 5 star place that I'm sure took this 5 star owner a long time to build, I can't wait to get hungary again!

“Unbelievable food. I mean, expert chef level. So, how can a small bar (it's a bar, first and foremost, dim and loud) have a huge, broad menu, yet execute on that variety so skillfully? Blown away. Right down to the flavor of the beef patties. The BLT was perfect. I need to try their breakfast menu. Whoever is in the kitchen needs their names on the menu as recognition. The bartender who served us (I wish I remembered her name) treated us like VIPs and had a great sense of humor. You gotta try it.Parking: Unless there's a lot I didn't see, there's only like 10 stalls out front.Kid-friendliness: Over 21 only. Otherwise they'd love the food.“
