The story
The Narrows Steakhouse, at 501 West Lake Street in McCall, Idaho, is an American steakhouse recognized by Forbes Travel Guide as Recommended in 2026. The menu centers on beef, with lake and mountain views from the dining room.
Beef leads the menu, with cuts from a seven-ounce tenderloin to a 32-ounce rib-eye tomahawk. The kitchen also sources ingredients locally whenever possible. Look for Lava Lake lamb meatball soup, an Idaho red butter lettuce wedge with creamy tarragon dressing, and Pacific cold-water oysters.
Floor-to-ceiling windows face the Salmon River Mountains and Payette Lake, and an early dinner reservation gives a front-row seat to the sunset. The wine cellar seats 16 in a modern-mountain room of reclaimed wood and glass walls, holding a 2,000-bottle collection. Wine Spectator gave the restaurant its Best of Award of Excellence in 2018.
Guests can choose a custom steak knife before the main course: a Laguiole from France, a Shun from Japan, or a Porsche-designed Chroma from Germany. The wine list includes 595 selections.
