Baxters on Cedar, nestled at 109 Cedar St in Sandpoint, ID, is quickly becoming a standout in the burgeoning American dining scene. With a cozy ambiance that pairs well with friendly service, it promises a memorable dining experience. Guests rave about the lobster chowder, described by Madison Schmidt as "amazing," and the goat cheese burger, which adds a delightful twist to traditional fare.
The menu doesn't shy away from creativity; Vivy Tran Calizon's experience highlights the unique pairing of pan-seared halibut with tangy huckleberry sauce. The outdoor seating offers a lively backdrop for patrons to enjoy their meals amidst the hustle and bustle, making it a great spot for both casual diners and those looking to enjoy a pleasant evening.

The lobster chowder was amazing - would highly recommend. Loved the goat cheese burger as well. The service was friendly and was a nice cozy place for dinner. Would come back!

Really great place. Our waitress was super warm and friendly. We were able to sit outside and people/dog watch. We ordered steamers (the white sauce was so good, I ate it like soup with the provided spoon), paned seared halibut with huckleberry sauce (never would have paired the two together and was tangy delicious) and Hunnie ordered shrimp etouffee. So happy we were able to dine here

3 out of 4 of us ordered the salmon special, and wow, it was delicious! I requested the lobster bisque soup in place of veggies, and I'm so glad I did! Our waitress was pleasant and timely with our courses. We will be back!

I was very impressed with the dinner special. It was pasta with ground beef, spices and sauce. It was phenomenal. I couldn't have imagined it being any better. 6 stars If possible.

Excellent original dishes. I ordered an appetizer and steak. Took one star off of food rating because it came well when I asked for medium rare. But they were quick to correct it and it was very good. I was dining by myself, and I asked to be by the window. The place was clean and organized. The bathroom was also clean. My beer had a good head and was a good temperature. Overall, I enjoyed my solo dinner.

Wonderful experience here!! We did lunch here and I really enjoyed it!! Sat at the bar and the servers were great. The kitchen messed up a bit on the wife's food issues, but my lobster roll was fantastic! They make the brioche role and was splendid...soft, crunchy and light. Yum!! The space is inviting and with the exception of it being a bit on the pricy side, it was outstanding!! Highly recommended!!
