"Tres bons burgers"

- Barbara Z.

"Schmidty's might've just ruined every other burger joint for me Roman and I rolled in just looking for a quick bite... left in a full-blown food coma. Burgers? Unreal. Chicken fingers? Crispy perfection. Onion rings? Dangerous. Fries? Gone before they even cooled off (thanks, toddler reflexes). And that ranch... I'm not saying it's life-changing, but I did consider buying a to-go cup of it. So yeah, Schmidty's is officially our secret spot... but don't tell anyone, I don't want a line next time "

- Alex S.

"Not only at there burgers some of the near in town but their fries and yogurt had their fish and chips. One again very good and service. Is excellent for a restaurant that you order at counter. We hand bananas foster forgot to take a picture but it was delicious even to go."

"A destination classic+more burger place. Just ask for what you want; they were quite flexible! I like double pickle, grilled onions, on sourdough. No extra charge. And the sweet potato fries... Best Ever. My sweetie's fish'n'chips also wonderful. "

- MrPete

"Had our first visit there today, and it did not disappoint!! Super good burgers and fries. I had the bacon cheeseburger, and let me tell you, it should be called the life changing bacon cheeseburger! The bacon on that baby is *life changing*. I don't think I have EVER had bacon that good. It was thick cut, and was so smokey, it blended perfect with the burger. I need to know where this bacon comes from "

"Alright, buckle up buttercups, because you're about to hear from a real authority on the matter. As a Schmidty by birthright (yes, it's a tough life, constantly upholding the family name in burger excellence), I approached Schmidty's Burgers with a healthy dose of optimism and an even healthier appetite. Let me tell you, the "Schmidty Burger" isn't just a namesake; it's a culinary coronation. This isn't your average patty palace - this is burger royalty. The fries? Forget about them being a sidekick. These crispy, golden batons deserve their own standing ovation. A solid 10 out of 10 - they're the kind of fries that make you question all your past fry-related decisions. But hold. The. Phone. While the burger and fries were a triumphant duet, the Pineapple Upside-down dessert... well, that was a full-blown operatic masterpiece. Life-changing isn't hyperbole; it's a documented fact in my newly revised personal history. Seriously, if the rest of their dessert menu even whispers the same level of deliciousness, skipping it should be classified as a misdemeanor, possibly a felony in states with good taste. Turns out, my previous Coeur d'Alene visits tragically landed on Mondays, a day the Schmidty's reserves for... well, not blessing us with their presence (Cause they are closed on Mondays). Consider this my official vow: I will sooner attempt to swim the length of Lake Coeur d'Alene in January than darken the door of this fine city on another Schmidt-less Monday. So, in conclusion, fellow food enthusiasts and Burger fanatics, if you find yourself in Coeur d'Alene, make a pilgrimage to Schmidty's. Order the Schmidty Burger or the Mrs. Schmidty (obviously), worship at the altar of their fries, and for the love of all that is delicious, DO NOT - I repeat - DO NOT skip dessert. Your taste buds will send you a thank you note written in pure joy. You're welcome."
