   We were amazed at this incomparable experience! Beyond all expectations! Made my birthday one we will never forget! Every bite of the food was perfect! The wine pairing was spot on and the timing was perfect. Surprised the staff were all so young? How could they show such originality? Can’t wait to do it again!

   What a wonderful way to spend an evening celebrating our anniversary! We felt a warm welcome when we arrived & throughly enjoyed the innovative, creative, delicious food! The staff was so sweet & fun! And we made some friends during intermezzo! My favorite dish of the night if I HAD to choose was the “ mini-bene” . Thank you all ! We’ll be back !

   This was our second time going and it was just as good as the first. I call it dinner and a show. Everyone must experience this at least once in their life. Chef Dave is special and has created a once in a lifetime experience that leaves you wanting to return each year.

    We waited 8 months for this reservation. The evening far exceeded our expectations! From the moment we arrived we were treated like family. The owner and his staff went out of their way to make the entire night fun as well as delicious. The food and wine were spectacular, nothing disappointed. If this restaurant isn’t on your bucket list, it should be. We can’t wait to go back.

    This is a super fun and unique experience to be had in N. Idaho. Looking for a quiet, romantic evening...not so much. But if you love food, and wine, and laughter, and all of those tied up into a fun night, this is for you. Unexpected, maybe a little bawdy, and seriously delicious!

    Amazing! Love the unexpected over the top culinary experience matched with delightful, hilarious commentary from the chef! Love that it is located in a sleepy little, picturesque town. You will not find anything like this anywhere else. Period. Brought our 3 adult children with us and it was the most fabulous dinner experience we’ve ever shared together. I’m over the moon that both my children and husband ate things they swore they would never eat in the life and savored every bite of it. All of that, paired with phenomenal wine pairings, desserts, port…..oh my!

    The food and wine pairings were amazing, and the chef was funny! His descriptions of the food, stories about the start of the restaurant, and just good old north Idaho humor, kept you laughing through the night. All the staff was amazing and very accommodating. We can't wait to dine here again.

    This was hands down the most amazing dining experience we have ever had. Emphasis on experience - this is NOT just dinner. The food and wine were incredible and you really feel like you are dining with family (sounds cheesy, but it's true!). Both my husband and I have a gluten sensitivity and they were able to accommodate us VERY well. We didn't feel at all like we got a lesser experience with any of the courses. Chef Dave is very entertaining and the team is delightful. We had plenty to eat and drink but not too much. Trust the chef! We also used the limo service to get us to and from our airbnb and we so appreciated that! I cannot recommend this experience enough!

    Eating at the Candle in the Woods was a very special experience. The food, service, management, and atmosphere was outstanding. Unfortunately, due to the high cost of the meal, it will not be an experience that we can repeat very often. If you can afford it, we would recommend this experience for anyone who wants something out-of-the-ordinary. It is nice to have the option of this type of high class dining experience in the area and we wish them well.
