The Coeur d’Alene area offers an extensive array of dining choices...from pizza to four star cuisine. It seems there’s something exciting happening every week with familiar faces opening new places and newcomers bringing another taste to the table of culinary selections. Successful restaurateurs are doubling their fun with expansions while old favorites are invigorated with new owners and updated menus. The biggest challenge with dining out these days is deciding where to go!
