The 50 best cheap eats in Boise

Large menu, fast service. I got the bologna sandwich and the coco shrimp basket. The bologna sandwich was amazing! What a surprise. It was about 3 dollars! The portions are big and there's plenty of seating outside. I wish I went when I was hungry. I shared the items and I didn't have a craving for burgers or a heavy meal.

Classic drive through/in with some outdoor tables. I got the "Famous idaho ice cream potato" which was fun and good. I love the idea. The Best Finger steaks had some tender beef inside but the breading felt heavy, fries were seasoned and delicious. Mostly self serve from the window. The slice of toast and fortune cookie were unusual add ons.

No inside seating but tables outside. We went late around 8 and they ran out of baked potatoes. Too many good things on the menu. Recommend cream soda and the Daddy O Burger (2 patties, 2 slices of ham, 4 slices of bacon) it's a lot but worth. You have to get the ice cream potato too so cool! The place was also featured on Diners, Drive Ins, and Dives.

My partner and I happened to pass through Boise on our car camping trip across America, and we’re so glad we stopped in! Everything was absolutely delicious, perfectly cooked, and came out so quickly. 10/10 — we’d definitely come back if we’re ever in Boise again! 🤟🏼

I had the BBQ bacon cheeseburger. It was a 6-napkin hamburger. So good! Generous size, bacon perfectly cooked. And less than $10. Amazing! Lots of other menu items to come back for: milkshakes, fish and chips, curly fries and onion rings, meatloaf and prime rib sandwiches. Outdoor seating, so dress accordingly or plan to eat in your car.

Obviously the ice cream potato is the signature here, but they also have a pretty impressive menu for the size of the place. It was my first time having a monte cristo and I thought it was pretty good too.

Really good food, generous portions, fair price, and the ice cream potato is so fun and really good too.

Liked the place and atmosphere that’s was it. I went to order asked for the BLT, and Truffle Parmesan fry’s. The lady asked if I wanted fountain drink and I said sure. She then asked what kind of fry’s I wanted and I said what ever goes best with the Truffle Parmesan. I went to go fill my cup from the fountain and it had a soda out of order H2O only. So paid for a soda that was not even available……. Then when I got my food I only had regular russet fry’s, not the Truffle Parmesan ones I asked for. And the BLT had one thin piece of lettuce…. Very disappointing sold item that was not available and my order messed up.

My sister and I went there on a recent trip to Boise. First of all we were delighted to choose what type of potatoes they would use for our fries. We also each got the veggie burger. We could choose a flavored salt and try out a variety of dipping sauces. The young men who work there were all super friendly and the food was outstanding.

A very simple and sweet little place right by the capital! We tried the double wagyu burger and the parmesan truffle fry’s. The burger is really plain and just doesn’t have that push I hoped for but it was a decent burger, the fry’s are obviously fantastic with great texture freshness and robust flavor! They have an absolutely fantastic sauce bar and a great drink selection that really drives home the fry company’s desire to combine great flavor and atmosphere. The restaurant has very nice interior and a great view of the capital. The blueberry ketchup is actually really Good as gross as that sounds.

My family and I was passing through state to state. We came from Oregon and decided to give this spot a shot. We were so glad this was gluten free. I was happy to have my mom enjoy food like us. We all got our burgers and it was delicious. I ordered the Classic with sweet potato fries. The seasoning and sauce bar was pretty sick to see! The burger was juicy and flavorful. The sweet potato fries were crispy and delicious. I especially enjoyed Idaho’s fry sauce. It was sorta similar to In-N-Out special sauce but I think I prefer Idaho’s Fry Sauce instead. It went well with the burger I chose and the fries combined. The staff were helpful to accommodate and prepare gluten free procedures without cross contaminating my mom’s meal. Thank you, and we hope to come back soon.

If you love potatoes PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD GO HERE. The fact that you can choose what potato you want is incredible. I had the Truffle Parmesan fries (using red potatoes) which were incredible. I was licking the tray clean. I love the fact they have multiple sauces and "salts" to put on them. The staff was friendly and extremely inviting. Can't wait to come back!

Got the vegan burger, which was delicious, much better than most. The fries were a generous portion and appreciated that they were not salted. You can choose from a selection of salts if you want. Fun friendly vibes inside.

Day trip to Boise, visited the Boise Fry Company since it was on IG, excellent customer service, the food was high-quality and fresh, like farm to table, burger had no fillers, I had the Classic Burger in a bowl since I'm gluten free, added cheddar cheese, avocado, and bacons since I'm off potatoes right now - the burger came as a chopped salad. My daughter had a burger plus the purple potato fries with Blueberry ketchup, loved it, would visit the Boise Fry Company when in the area again.

I tried the braised beef with a house salad. It was very good, not great. Quality salads, mixed greens. We also had trout, again very good. Also, salad with smoked salmon, very good and the roasted chicken was better than I expected. The outside seating was perfect. Service was good, waiter not much personality.

I had visited once before about a year ago, and I finally got my husband to go with me. This is a great place to bring family, visitors, or even to get together with friends. We had a lunch date and left full and happy. I started with an Espresso Martini they called a Carajllo. It was deliciously smooth. The twist of adding lemon was fine, but I think I'd like it more without it. My husband and I then shared the following three appetizers: -Asparagus 'Fries': These were some of the thickest asparagus I've seen. The breading was great but could have used a bit more flavor. -Tomato Basil Fondue & Grilled Cheese: Honestly, I would change nothing about this dish. It's so fun and tasty. The bread keeps its crunch, which I appreciate. -Wagyu Sliders: These were my least favorite. They were a tad greasy and plain in flavor. I do always love the arugula on sliders, though!

Stopped in for lunch at The Fork and had a fantastic experience. We started with the grilled cheese and tomato bisque appetizer—super comforting, perfectly crispy, and great for sharing. For my main, I went with the smash burger, and it absolutely delivered—juicy, flavorful, and satisfying. It was a little on the salty side, but honestly so good that I think it should be a permanent menu item. The atmosphere is one of my favorite things about The Fork: set right in the heart of downtown Boise with gorgeous flowers surrounding the patio. We grabbed an outdoor table, which was perfect for a sunny afternoon, but the interior is just as impressive—housed in an old bank, with a cool lounge downstairs where you can actually sit in the vault. Our server, Ramon, was AWESOME. Super polite and attentive, making sure we were comfortable and keeping our water glasses full (which was much appreciated on a hot day). Overall, The Fork is a top-notch lunch spot—delicious food, excellent service, and a setting that always feels a little bit special.

4-stars all around. We decided to walk around downtown Boise. Frankly, I was impressed. They did a good job laying out the restaurants and shops around the university area. The Fork was American cuisine done with the farm-to-fork (table) principle. We ordered the wagyu beef sliders 🍔 the fig salad 🥗 braised beef 🥩 and their famed butter cake 🍰 plus cocktails 🍸 of course. All good! Wished we also tried the asparagus fries 🍟 😉 The service was attentive and just right. This is definitely recommended if ever you’re in the Boise area. There are other interesting restaurants there to try to.

A great bar/ restaurant or maybe it's a restaurant/ bar. In any case you will not be disappointed as they hit the mark in both categories!! The chicken waffles will knock your feathers off!! The drinks will tip your scale! And the staff will delight you with good conversation.

The wife and I really enjoyed our lunch visit here. Everything was solid, and the place itself is a really great space to enjoy a drink or dining experience. Wife got a lemonade cocktail and I noticed they had a great selection of local craft beers, and I chose the Sawtooth Idahome IPA. I am a cheesy guy by nature, so decided to have the fondue style grilled cheese with tomato soup. Wife chose the chop salad, and we shared the fries (the rosemary parmesan ones). Both were good, especially mine since I thought it was a good twist on presentation. I was told that I won the food battle for the meal. The atmosphere was energetic but classy, and I could see this place might be a lot of fun at night. Again, everything was pretty solid. I always explain my 4's (and try not to post any 3's or below, because I got on this platform only to broadcast positivity towards establishments), and I think we caught the salad greens on an off day, and we just didn't get the warm and fuzzy from the bartender on duty. It was efficient service, but was missing that welcoming, nice-to-meet-you service. But, this place is still a must stop for your Boise adventure, we definitely WILL come back the next time we are in town, and it is right in the heart of all of the fun on 8th. I highly recommend this place, and see you there (well, the next time we are in Boise)...

One of my favorite restaurants when in Boise. I have visited for both business lunch meetings and with the family. Creative menu, great presentation, and fresh ingredients. I highly recommend!

I went to Bardenay for a lateish lunch. it was self seating. Me and my parents sat down and waited a bit for the server to bring us some water and an extra set of silverware. The food was well prepared but I found underseasoned. This might just be local taste? but I wasn't very impressed. The beer was fine, but the mocktail was good!

Very good food! Went during the basque festival, so very busy, but they still managed to have a seat for two of us rather quickly. The food was fantastic, especially given our entrée was fish, which this far inland is hard to find good fish/seafood of any kind. The service was fast and helpful as well. Highly recommend the sea bass gnocchi or one of the trout dishes. We also had the greek fried idaho cheese, which was to die for. Had no room for dessert by the end, so we will be back to try that next time. The only downside is that it is a very open setting, so kinda hard to hear sometimes when it is busy. Still recommend for a date, get together, or any other occasion!

The food and service were good. I recommend the burger. Beers were great. The only thing I didn't like was the Ahi seared tuna, which I think was cooked too long Otherwise, it's in a great location.

Incredible experience, the atmosphere was fantastic, spooky decorations were fantastic. The staff was fantastic and attentive to group needs and special dietary needs. The Tenderloin Mushroom Pasta was phenomenal. Perfectly cooked to medium.

Good location downtown. Great and fast service. Good beer selection, plus some of their own spirits mixed in with a lot of classics. Food is also excellent.

Great service and the food was delicious. Our cocktails sounded amazing on the menu -- creative expressions with a wide variety of spirits...but in actuality they tasted really basic. Ex. My Forgive & Fernet sounded complex and nuanced, but it was delivered as a simple whiskey sour without even a garnish. Not bad, but not as advertised either.

First time visit. Near our hotel so we could walk. Seated right away. We had made it in time for happy hour. We ordered the wings for an appetizer, Dinner was tenderloin mushroom pasta, this was tender meat, cooked perfectly with the pasta and mushrooms tender and melt in your mouth yummy. Cod and chips, first batch was cold, asked our server for a warm order of this, came back with a fresh made order, fish was hot, nice crisp on the outside and fish was good. Fries were hot, coleslaw was a nice compliment to fish. Lemon drop martini, Sunday paper martini- spicy and old fashioned

Tango's is a critically acclaimed wonder of culinary delight, and we had to stop in for a snack as we made our way through Boise for the last leg of our road trip. We had heard nothing but good about the food and the service, hailed by many as the best empenadas north of the border. We were not disappointed. Staff were polite and helpful, and the space was small but comfortable. The empenadas themselves were absolutely perfect, in texture, flavor, and consistency. I particulary enjoyed the "Rancho", a bean and pork masterpiece. We savored every single bite, so much so that we had to pick up a a few to take with us before we left. You would be remiss to miss an opportunity to stop by Tango's, should you get a chance!

Tangos is the place to be! I’ve never had empanadas before but theirs have me hooked, the breading is thick enough to hold in the juice and filling, but not so thick you feel like you’re eating mostly dough. The filling is packed with flavor, my personal favorite is the Tinga. They also have dessert empanadas, delicious. The young man at the register was very kind and patient as we figured out what we wanted, and the staff that came through were kind and smiled at us. Please visit and support their business.

We loved these Empanadas so much yesterday that we had to return to try more flavors. My favorite was the Chimicarne. I highly recommend this shop!

Oh my God! 5/5 all the way!!!!! I ordered 6 of these absolutely amazing, heavily pastries and it was not enough to fulfill my hunger because they were so good. My first impression was that I couldn’t believe damn big that menu is. Seriously. You’re gonna have a fun time if you didn’t study beforehand because I did and I was still floored over how indecisive I was! After staring at the menu for what seemed like forever I finally picked two beef empanadas ($3.75-$4.00), Gaucho (Argentina original. Ground beef, eggs, olives, onions, bell peppers and spices) and Saltena (from Salta, Argentina. Ground beef, onion, eggs and potatoes). Of the two, the Gaucho was the one for me. It was full of flavor, super stuffed and piping hot! Saltena is great as well, tasted like taco seasoning but authentic. From the chicken menu I picked the Gardel (chicken in light marinara sauce, $3.75). Super good! The chicken was tender and juicy. Whatever spices were thrown in there created a fantastic taste. For our pork option, I chose the Rancho (house made refried beans, in-house Mexican chorizo, cheddar cheese and jalapenos, $3.75). Whew, this was a spicy one. They don’t tread lightly on the jalapenos, FYI. This empanada was exquisite, my favorite out off all the savory choices. Of course, I couldn’t dare skip out on the dessert empanadas. The Chocolate (dulce de leche, creame cheese and chocolate chips) and La Nona (dulce de leche and bananas) are out of this damn world!!! Extremely sweet, I’ve been dreaming about these since I tried them. Tango’s is such a blessing to Boise! I cannot wait to go back so so soon!!

Sooooooo good! We got a whole box full of empenadas and split them up. The Mac and cheese was definitely a favorite! The meats were great! The desserts were great! We will definitely be back here to try more! Quite a good sized menu too!

Very tasty empanadas! Busy place, everyone knows about it, 19 years in biz… Welcome to Argentina in Idaho!

Smal quaint spot on orchard . Fairly steady parking was difficult the lot needs repairs . We ordered the BBQ,lengucia, chimicarne Chilli con Carne with sour cream, and a la plata dessert empenada. The chimi was a staff pick was very wet and the dough was soggy on the bottom kinda sad because the meat was very tender. Yet bland and oily The BBQ was very good could have used a stronger BBQ flavor but the empenada held up and the meat again was perfectly cooked. The lenguica lacked a sauce and when it cooked all the ingredients went to one side so half had nothing in it . And had bout 7 small slices of lengica total . The Chilli was so blend all you tasted was sour cream but the pocket held up to the challenge . My fave was the la Plata it was a strawberry and cream not super sweet so perfect for me and dusted with powdered sugar . That one was the winner for me. Will go back to try some of their authentic flavors but so far the savory ones were bland . As for the prices they are perfectly priced so you can try more than one and not break the bank. And portions were great when sharing to get the experiance .

Small grocery and restaurant. Tapas/pinxtos are made to order, unlike in Spain were they are on display and you just point at what you want. I ordered the ham(jamon) croquets, they looked like tater tots but tasted like warm cheese that melted in your mouth. I enjoyed the wine. Maybe best if you a seeking a basque ingredient. I found it kind pricey for what it was.

This was our last vacation meal before leaving Boise and we purposely toured the Basque museum across the street before coming here and timed it so we would be early (before 11:30am) so we could get a spot on the patio and watch the Paella come together. Wednesday is one of the two days that Paella is made on the patio and there are limited tables outside. He is pictured making 60 servings and you can call in advance to reserve. You have the option to eat there or fill a carry-out container. The patio and restaurant are amazing for their atmosphere. Pictures of the Paella and chef are welcomed and he is super nice with quick wit! I had the Paella and shared tapas with my wife. Everything about our visit, especially the food, was amazing! I highly recommend!!

This was such good food. The patatas bravas were better than ones we had in Spain. All the dishes we had were perfect in every way. Seasoning, balance of flavor, and presentation. The Gildas and Shepard bread were surprise hits that we will always come back for. Service was excellent and the market atmosphere is cozy and well decorated. This is a gem. Loved it so much. Can't wait to be back in Boise to enjoy more Basque treats.

I cannot say enough about the Basque Market's many charms, from the market of authentic ingredients, to the warm, pet-friendly service, to the glorious food you can eat on-premises, inside and out. I would LIVE here if I could. They have a special "3 for $6" pintxos/tapas (small bites) special going on, as well as paella on Wed. and Fri. My husband and I were blown away by the options, especially my shrimp baguette tapa and the patatas bravas that were so crispy and soft and mildly spiced and addictive. My husband marveled at the buttery, crispy chunk of bread served with his beef meatballs swimming in pepper, tomato sauce. I love Marcona almonds but can't find them anywhere, other than specialty shops far from where we live in Twin Falls, ID. Luckily, this market has them, spiced, and MORE (we went home with a Spanish cheese and chorizo sausage, too). We'll be back, often, to try the other dishes.

This place was so good on every level. They were welcoming of our giant pup which was so nice. The patio is great. The stuffed peppers were amazing! Wine was also excellent and staff was so nice and knowledgeable.

I'm going to learn Basque cuisine. Absolutely delicious tapas and quality above the ordinary. Each flavor profile builds up on itself. Every component builds upon the other so you're led on an exquisite journey of delectable culture. A masterpiece... Complete. For more reviews feel free to follow me on Google.

Meat and cheese plate made a delicious and filling lunch while exploring the Basque Block. Almonds and olives paired well with several types of cheese and meats. There was also a large selection of wines as well as cider. Gift shop had many specialty items. My favorite meal in Boise!

Bacon Boise - A Bacon Lover’s Paradise! If you haven’t visited Bacon Boise yet, you’re truly missing out. This place is a bacon lover’s dream, and I’m not just talking about regular bacon – their in-house creations are next level. First, let’s talk about the Beignets – they are to die for! Light, fluffy, and warm, dusted with white powdered sugar, and paired with raspberry jelly. I just devoured five pieces without blinking an eye. Seriously, they’re THAT good. 😋 Now, onto the real star of the show: Bacon Shots. This sampler lets you try all of their signature, made-in-house bacon varieties: • Berryhill Bacon: Their traditional bacon, with a slight sweetness that makes it unique and absolutely mouthwatering. • Spicy Hot Bacon: If you love a bit of heat, this is your bacon. The peppery kick lingers on your tongue in the best way possible. • Maple Rosemary Bacon: Sweet, savory, and fragrant, with the perfect balance of maple syrup and rosemary. If you’re a rosemary fan, this one’s for you. • Candied Bacon: Perfectly sweet and addictive. This is definitely a favorite for kids (or anyone with a sweet tooth!). • Pantry Bacon: The rotating special – which has coffee on the bacon. While not my personal favorite, it’s still pretty tasty and definitely worth trying. The atmosphere at Bacon Boise is cozy and welcoming, with large wooden tables for families and intimate high-tops for two. The menu offers a great variety, from starters to hearty breakfast and brunch options. Plus, their patio is perfect for soaking up the sun on a warm day. Service is excellent and I enjoyed the conversation while enjoying the bar seats. If you’re craving bacon – or just a good meal in a fun and friendly setting – Bacon Boise is the place to be! 🥓. You can also purchase your favorite bacon for about $18 a bag to take with you!

First of all.. EMERSON! (I hope I spelled his name correctly) he was above and beyond with his kindness and customer service! We encountered another employee and she was not as kind. Emerson also went out of his way to make sure we were 100% and more happy and satisfied with our whole experience. The food was fantastic and we absolutely will be back! We ordered far more than we could eat so that we could try more! Very delicious! They have bagged bacon as well, my 10 he old son insisted we buy 3!

Best bacon I have ever eaten. The food and service was perfect! I could not ask for anything better. The staff and atmosphere were also very nice and welcoming. I love this place. There’s also a cool safe in the basement.

An amazing experience! The food is unique, service was quick. We had the bacon flight, French toast, Benny Hill, bacon and cheddar scones and beignets! Highly recommend going for the experience and the delicious food!

Got the “Arizona.” It wasn’t warm. Which is weird for fried chicken and gravy… I asked to trade it for oatmeal (thinking it’s a quick, safe option that’s easy to make hot), but the oatmeal was also cold. The self-serve drip coffee was hot though. So, I’d recommend that instead.

Soooo good! I got the virgin spicy bloody Mary with they're homemade bacon and it tasted like heaven! Pair that with the Benny Hill Benedict with chipotle hollandaise sauce, perfection. Will definitely be brunching here again.

I sat outside on a perfect Fall afternoon to enjoy me time. The patio is clean and the music is peaceful. The staff was really nice and the food is so good. I got the Boise Basin omelet.

This is an old school, greasy spoon, cafe type of joint. If that's your thing, you'll probably dig it. Fast, friendly, and attentive service and fair portions for the price. But there's nothing here that's going to 'wow' you if you're a foodie. *I found the claim to famous biscuits and gravy to be little more than marketing hyperbole... Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with this place, I just wouldn't go out of my way to eat here again.

A True Boise Gem: The Capri Restaurant Saturday morning with four friends turned into a delightful reunion when we ran into two more friends at The Capri. It’s the kind of place where that just happens, a testament to its status as a true Boise institution. This hidden gem on Fairview is a must-visit, and I would 100% recommend it to anyone looking for a classic, delicious breakfast or lunch. Our experience was fantastic from start to finish. Our server was wonderful, attentive, and handled our growing party with grace. The food was absolutely fantastic; a perfect example of home-style cooking done right. Every dish was full of flavor, and the portions were generous, exactly what you want from a classic diner. Beyond the delicious food and excellent service, part of what makes The Capri so special is its welcoming atmosphere and traditional feel. It's a place that feels like it's been a part of the community forever, with a sense of history that's evident the moment you walk in. The restaurant even has a connection to another local icon, with the two businesses often co-branded and even opening a joint location in Meridian. The Capri is also the proud home of Rudy the Rooster, a beloved Boise icon. If you're looking for a taste of old-school Boise with a welcoming atmosphere, fantastic food, and a bit of local charm, The Capri is the place to go. It’s a hidden gem that feels like a warm hug, and it's a place you'll want to return to again and again.

If you're looking for the old 70-80s diner style restaurant this is it. The place is always busy. It's a clean friendly and busy atmosphere. You seat yourself at a clean table and someone will come to get you situated. Our party of two (1st timers here) ordered huckleberry pancakes, sweet corn waffles and biscuits and gravy to share. That sweet corn waffle from their "specials" menu was our favorite. Glad we gave it a try. I want to go back for it before it's gone. Our waitress was delightful and I look forward to returning.

You don’t need a full order of them loaded biscuits and gravy. But you do need some of that loaded biscuits and gravy in your belly.

The perfect diner with great food! I don't think the interior has changed in 50 years. The service is always good and parking is not a problem.

This is a great diner to grab breakfast in the morning, it reminds me of the diner in Seinfeld, the staff is amazing and have all worked together for a long time and it makes the business run smooth, food comes out hot and fast l, and always taste great. I always bring visitors here for a meal and we always leave happy. The waitress’s are literally pros very fast and very sweet and kind no matter how busy they get they will find time to make your visit feel like you are a long time patron.

We absolutely love the Capri as far as the food and service is concerned. What we don’t like is that during our last few visits there have twice been dogs in the restaurant. This morning the dog was sitting in a booth with its owners (I assume). The dog had it’s head on the table more than once. Neither time were the dogs marked as service animals. We are dog lovers ourselves but do not feel it’s appropriate to have them be in an eating establishment.

French fries were the best part of lunch. Ordered the special burger and special shake. Hamburger had good flavors with the jalapeño and bacon but a dry burger and thin bun. Special milkshake was $6 and came in a small cup and looked and tasted like a very thin vanilla milkshake with some artificial peach flavoring in it. Didn’t seem that busy but took a minute for the burgers to come out and everyone was finished with their burgers before the drinks (shakes) came out. Tried to get some water to have something to drink with the food but the water jug was empty.

Service was great- friendly and we were offered refills. Fries were PERFECT!!! Burgers were juicy and delicious. Barbecue sauce had a kick and the fry sauce was delicious. Lots of menu options for burgers, sandwiches, salads, milkshakes. We will definitely go back!!!

Absolutely the best Gyro salad in the history of ever & the Belly Burger was outstanding, as well! My tastebuds have been smiling all day long after eating lunch at this quaint & accommodating little joint! From the excellent customer service to the charming atmosphere, I would give this place a 1000 star rating, if I could!

Always the best burgers and fries! It's at the point that no other burger place in Boise really satisfies unless it's Buger Belly. Incredible food, amazing staff and never mess an order up. Go get your belly fully at Burger Belly!!

I have never left a bad review before, but I just tasted the worst burger of my life! They use the cheapest ingredients possible, and the best way I can describe the texture of the 'meat' is what I think chewing on a flip flop would be. I hope the unpleasant memory of eating this food goes away soon... yuck!!! Also, why 4.5 stars?!?! I am ashamed of all of you, and partially blame you for our experience... do better!

A delicious bacon cheeseburger. Hard to beat the price, for the quality you recieve. Enjoyed a Cherry Huckleberry milkshake. Between the two items my order totaled to be $15. A fair price in my honest opinion. The staff was kind and efficient. Always gotta give respect to the employees that work on Sundays. The milkshake was pretty small but was just the right thing to pair with the burger. Bacon Cheeseburger 8.4/10, Huckleberry Cherry Shake 7.5/10. Overall a Great place to relax and get a bite to eat or catch up with friends/family. Can see myself returning in the near future!!

Really good burger and a generous amount of fries.

Bittercreek Alehouse gets shocking stellar reviews. But it's just not a great restaurant. It's located in a popular tourist area and it's relatively easy to find a table. But the food is quite a letdown. The poutine features a very heavy gravy that is too overpowering, not to mention lacking the authenticity of a good Canadian poutine. The only redeeming quality were the cheese curds. The fries were tasteless and extremely disappointing for a region that prides themselves on potatoes. And while the burgers are incredibly creative, they lack quality.

Strolling along 8th street and found a nice place to eat dinner. We sat outside and was pleasant with the heaters going. We had the Poutine for a stater and then shared the Wild Coho Salmon with Caesar Salad. Food was great and Amaya was a great server.

I stopped by Bittercreek for a weekday lunch and was pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere—lots of seating options both inside and out. We grabbed a spot on the patio, which was perfect for a little people-watching and enjoying the sunshine. I ordered the cobb salad and was impressed by how flavorful everything was. The portion was more than generous, with plenty of fresh toppings and a nice balance of ingredients. My friend had the chicken sandwich, which also looked hearty and well-prepared. Service was friendly and our server checked in on us a couple of times, but it did take about 35 minutes for our food to come out. That felt a bit long, especially since we just had salads and sandwiches. Still, the staff’s positive attitude made up for the wait. Overall, Bittercreek is a solid spot if you’re not in a huge rush—good food, friendly faces, and a comfortable spot to relax. I’d definitely come back, maybe with a bit more time to spare.

Someone recommended this establishment and I’m glad I took their advice. Great beer selection, well-poured cocktails and the food was especially good. A great poutine that hit the spot after a long work day…

Loved the food and service! The poutine is a must try! We came in and asked our waiter to pick us a good beer flight and OMG: all options were amazing! We ended up returning to this place for a second time in one evening!

Huntsman burger was one of the best burgers I have ever tried. The Orange Whip Hazy IPA was amazing. Service was excellent. Only thing I didn’t love was the place is very loud/busy inside (so I sat outside since the weather was perfect).

We had a great time at Bittercreek Alehouse in downtown Boise! The atmosphere is lively and casual, perfect for an evening out. The selection of local beers is excellent — lots of craft options to choose from, and the staff really know their recommendations. The food was tasty and nicely presented, especially the burgers and fries. Portion sizes were good, and everything came out fresh. Service was friendly and efficient, though it got a bit busy at peak hours, which made things slightly slower — but still very pleasant overall. A great spot for good food, local beer, and a fun Boise vibe.

Very smokey and hot inside. Outside was a beautiful night but flies everywhere.. Pizza was pretty tasty (7.8) despite being see-through floppy crust.

Affordable New York style pizza slices where they toss it in the oven to reheat it. I tried a slice of pepperoni and special with onion and olive oil sauce. They encourage folding your slice but offer silverware if you must cut it. Pizza had a crisp crust but lacked a little cheese to get 5 stars. That being said, 2 slices and a soda was under $10!

Heard so much about this place and was severely underwhelmed. First off, the pizza was huge, I loved how big it was and I loved the thinness of the crust, and also the size of each slice. Thats where the good stops. I ordered their red and their white pizza. The red was not too bad, but nothing to rant and rave over like ive seen people do online. It was mid at best. Then came the white pizza, worst white pizza I've ever had. The white sauce was non existent, it was just cheese on dough. Then there was a whole issue with topings. They didnt offer any premium pizzas, just a "base" pizza then you add the toppings you want. The problem comes though when they charge $22 for just a base and then $3 a topping after that, yes even for black olives, or other cheap veggies, all toppings $3 each. I did order online, maybe that was my problem, but still their problem not mine.

It was okay. The pizza was good, but nothing special. We ate outside because the inside was dark and hot. Service was mixed. The girl who grabbed our pizza was really nice. The guy who checked us out was quiet to the point of being rude. Not worth going out of our way to come here again. I'd recommend it if you live within walking distance though.

Was really looking forward to the order after seeing other reviews, but the pizza was dry, unflavorful, sauceless, and about the thinnest pizza I've ever seen. Maybe that's how they do it in New York but hard pass next time. I've had gas station pizza better than this. On the plus side, the folks that work there were nice and there was decent service. But the product at the end of the day is subpar at best.

Small place but really clean and awesome staff. The pizza is amazing!! I’ll be back

This place is a keeper. The pizza is good and filling. The staff working there were stellar in their service. The atmosphere with all the things hanging on the walls give this place a A+ rating. It felt like home and it was my first time being there.

I rarely leave reviews, but I feel like it was necessary here. Cocktails were decent. The food was ROUGH. We go out a few times a week, and just have not had that bad of food for a very long time. The worst part was we asked if the bread was moldy, and they took it back to look at it, then said they were pretty sure it wasn’t, but just in case to eat around it ????!(the moldy/fuzzy part), and still charged us! I was super nice about it but holy cow. Then we tried the mushroom soup, which, for mushroom people… it was a gray thick glob of sadness :,(. Just avoid .

We caught a weekend brunch here, and we are so glad we went. We had limited days in town, and my wife had this as her #1 researched brunch place pre-trip. Fiona was our bartender, and we were her first bar customers. She greeted us with high energy, and her service was spotless for our visit. The food and drink ended up being fantastic too, but she really put the exclamation point on our visit overall. I kept it simple with beer, but my wife had two excellent cocktails while there. I admittedly neglected to write down the exact name of them, but my notes say they were a lavender tea drink and an herby Cosmopolitan. Just ask Fiona or whoever is behind the bar when you go. They will lead you the correct way. Picture of one is below. Anyway, I had the short rib hash and the wife had the eggs in purgatory, and both were incredible. The atmosphere was really unique. It was a cool brunch or nice any-meal place, but you could also tell it might get pretty fun at night. The wine cellar was so cool, and we asked to go check it out. Really cool area. Food, drink, and service were easily five star. We loved our experience here, I would highly recommend you checking it out, and see you there (the next time we are in Boise)...

I stopped at Red Feather to get a quick bite to go. I was a little confused about the dual restaurant thing, half of the building is Red Feather and the other half is Bitterhouse and depending on where you sit dictates which menu. It would be helpful to have a menu for both posted outside the restaurant so the person can see the two options. It’s seat yourself which I imagine is hard on the servers if they don’t see you come in, I sat for a while before someone noticed me. I ordered the meatballs to go. They were pretty good, I would’ve loved some spiciness to them. There were other things on the menu I wanted to try, good amount of non alcoholic drinks too.

We came in as a party of three at 11:05 AM on a Saturday. We were seated at a beautiful outdoor table with an ice heater. We got our drinks at 1145. The coffee I ordered on top of the drink never came. I had asked for it again. We ordered our food at 11:45 1230 rolled around and still no food and no second round of drinks so we left.

Party of 5 for appetizers and cocktails on a Sunday night. Really good selection of everything. Expect to pay $20 for the best cocktails. They didn't care whatsoever about my girls birthday which she loved haha but the service was good otherwise. Atmosphere is chill, check it out if you have money to burn.

Enjoyed a great brunch today! First time at Red Feather and glad I finally made a point to try it. Service was friendly and fast and the restaurant has a cozy vibe even though it is two stories and quite roomy. I had eggs Benedict and a waffle both of which were tasty. Lots of great and yummy choices on the menu. My husband had one of the skillet scrambles and our friend had chicken and biscuits which also tasted great.

Fantastic customer service. I was part of a large group and they were very friendly and accommodating. They had a great cocktail menu. The food menu was interesting and had a wide variety but execution wasn't 5 star, still good. I had a caesar salad, but couldn't really taste much dressing. I also had a pasta dish. The pasta was very oily, but the flavor was good.

Outstanding tacos! Lots of variety. This isn’t what I would call authentic but the different flavors were interesting and tasty. All of the ingredients seemed very fresh and high quality. It’s a popular place so plan ahead if you’re going during peak times.

First time (2 weeks ago photo) was 5 Stars! We liked it so much that we drove 25 miles today for more tacos, only to be so disappointed. Shrimp taco had tails on the shrimp and not the same shrimp, looked like deep fried batter dipped. Half the Ingredients were missing and I wish I had took a photo to show today’s tacos. Staff seemed more focused on talking than making the tacos the way they should be made.

We loved your tacos! Thank you for having yummy food at good prices. Things are so expensive right now but we were finally able to eat out at your place given the reasonable prices. We'll definitely be back! Please build a Tin Roof Tacos in Eagle, Emmett, & more around Meridian!😊🌮🌮🥤

Food is alright. They are very fast each time I go in which is a plus. Small portions especially on the steak tacos- I had to pull out a magnifying glass to find the steak on the taco. My chicken tacos were cold. I would recommend the shrimp tacos out of what I have had.

We use the Tin Roof taco truck for a wedding reception, and it was such a huge hit! April was awesome to work with. Her team was on site and ready to go on time. They had chips and salsa and guac and queso all ready for cocktail hour and set up so right right guests were coming over, Everything was ready. for dinner, guests could come over table by table and order 3 of the 5 options. It only took about a minute because they had a lot of the food pre-prepared and ready to assemble based on what the guest wanted. So no long lines !! April and her team were on it and Quick and really great about getting people through the line quickly so they could eat their dinner This was such a fun addition to our reception and all of our guests just raved how great the tacos were . If you love, language is tacos this is your sign to get a taco truck and have Tin Roof come cater your wedding !

Experience was great, staff were kind and helpful, pretty efficient - but the actual taste and quality of the tacos wasn't what you would expect for a taco specific place. We tried 7 different kinds of tacos and only really "liked" 1 of them. Corn Tortillas, Kind of soggy. Not a lot of flavor. Wouldn't seek it out intentionally to eat there again. They do give a large serving size of Guacamole though for only a few dollars :)

Always a great go to taco place that's tasty and affordable. My only complaint is it's very hard to get breakfast tacos ordered for pickup- i get an estimated wait of at least 2 hours Everytime - which pushes out to lunch period, so at this point it's just easier to go in person if you want tacos as early as me lol

Stopped by The Wylder recently for lunch and was really impressed overall. I went with the fried chicken sandwich and paired it with their house salad. The sandwich was crispy and flavorful, with a nice kick from the spicy mustard & apples and a soft bun that held everything together. The house salad was fresh and well-dressed—a perfect light balance to the richness of the sandwich. Portions were generous, and everything came out looking appetizing. Service stood out as a highlight here. Our server was friendly, attentive, and quick with refills and check-ins, which made the meal feel easy and relaxed. Even though the place was busy, we never felt rushed or overlooked. Atmosphere-wise, The Wylder has a casual vibe but is spotlessly clean and comfortable. The decor is modern but not over-the-top, and it felt like the kind of spot you could hang out in for a while. All in all, a great spot for a casual meal downtown. Solid food, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere. I’ll definitely be back to try more of the menu! —Visited May 2025

On a work trip to Boise and we were told about this hidden gem! Great quality food and tasty drinks. All the food pics are half eaten - bc the food was that good!! I ordered the Italian meatballs and the cauliflower with chickpeas for my appetizers. The meatballs came with fresh sourdough bread and a great marinara sauce for dipping. I ate every last bite of both appetizers. Then I ordered a pizza to go. 1/2 honey badger and the other 1/2 was a seasonal selection. Again, the pizza did not disappoint. I took it for lunch the next day. Great service and a lovely atmosphere. The wait was two hours when we arrived and they did not take reservations. We opted to sit in the bar to experience Wylder! Definitely would recommend if you so happen to be in Boise, Idaho!

We came to this restaurant perhaps expecting too much. Service was great considering the busy lunch hour, wine was good, water tasted very clean and fresh, and the sourdough was excellent :) Unfortunately, the toppings on the pizza were disappointing. The Margherita pizza was oversalted, and the mushroom pizza was sopping wet. I don't think I'll go back, at least not for the pizza.

I took my entire family to this restaurant because my aunt had gifted me a gift card for my recent birthday. The food and service here were excellent. The meatballs were giant, and they made their own tomato sauce fresh. The Harissa Wings tasted like a fresh, slightly spicy orange chicken. Their in-house ranch is also delicious. My adult son, who never likes ranch, loved it here. My friend enjoyed the cauliflower and chickpeas best. It was perfectly cooked and the sauce was tasty. The pizza we liked best was the honeybadger and yaya's house. They also made a great pepperoni pizza (two of my son's don't like to adventure with their food). It is pretty spendy, but you get what you pay for- fresh ingredients that take time to prepare. The parking is difficult, but that's pretty typical for downtown Boise anyway. We all enjoyed our late lunch here.

Wow! Some of the best pizza we've had since Napoli! That crust is next level good. Perfectly crispy, yet flavorful. Well aged. The flavor combinations are unreal. The honey badger was not normal for me to choose, but its popularity won me over. It did not disappoint. The Italian sausage, fresh ricotta, and spicy honey was such a genius combo. Love it! The Margherita pizza with added burrata was perfection. The kale caesar was a surprise hit. Perfectly balanced and flavorful. The wife loved her cocktails (boulevardier). Our server, Kendall, was a gem. She was the perfect host to a perfect meal.

If you get one thing, get the meatballs. Everything else is gravy. Note: pizza dough needs more flavor but love the light delicate cheese pull.

Some of the best pizza I’ve ever had! Easily our favorite restaurant in Boise. The Honey Badger white pie is unreal. They use a 57-year old sourdough starter for the pizza and it shows. Get a side of ranch to dip the crusts in. The buttermilk market salad was also a great starter. We didn’t get the Bronco pie or fried chicken, but if we’re back in the area, this will be our first stop. Dessert was delicious, but we were so full we only had a bite each. Good to go with a group.

What a great place to stop for a huge treat! Flights of icecream is the best invention ever! Share 8 sampling of their homemade icecream with friends. Wonderful treat! Beer and icecream flights are also pretty great idea!

I normally never go to ice cream places because they are so overpriced and the ice cream is just average. I recently became lactose intolerant and have missed ice cream so much. They had five different flavors of lactose and gluten free ice cream and they were all absolutely delicious. For the price to have something that genuinely tasted like regular ice cream was completely worth it. I would definitely come back here again. I tried the raspberry, mango and cookies and cream flavors. I loved them all. The gluten free cookies and cream I still dream about.

I was guided to this ice cream shop by a local, and I just wanted to say "Thank you" random local person. I went solo the first trip. When my wife found out I went on my own, she informed me that it was already on her well-researched pre-trip list (so, we went again together). ANYWAY, this place was great. For my first trip, I had the Marky Mark and the Funky Crunch, the Bake Sale, and the Fresh Powder...all in one cup. Awesomeness. I forgot to note what I got the second time and what is pictured below, but just know that it is ALL good. Even if I said the ice cream was subpar, which I wouldn't, and it wasn't, they had two things that would make them a five regardless. One, their clever flavor combinations. You don't have to worry about going in and choosing between vanilla and chocolate. They live off the beaten path in their creations. Actually, the toughest and most fun part of the process was picking the flavors that would merge well together. Two, I am not sure if they selectively hired energetic kids behind the counter, or if working at the place just made normal kids more awesome, but we were greeted with curiosity, energy, and efficiency each of my times there. They could just go through the motions with their part-time job, but they actually elevated the whole experience. We loved our two visits here, I highly recommend this place, and see you there (the next time we are in Boise)...

If you compile data on the highest-rated ice cream stores across the United States, the STIL (Sweetest Things In Life) in Boise is ranked an impressive 11th overall! Now, theoretically it should be unforgettable ice cream with those ratings! But locals in Boise seem to overrate their eateries, and unfortunately STIL is no exception. Despite an average customer rating of 4.77 on all platforms, the ice cream is shockingly mediocre. It doesn't even compare to decent store-bought brands, much less the life-changing creameries throughout America's top 20. Some of the flavors are creative, and of course ice cream is always good. But the ratings for STIL are way overblown!

STIL was delicious! To have vegan and gluten free options as a majority was a nice change up from the normal. We ordered “Cookies with Grandma” (gf and vegan) which was delicious coconut with cookie pieces and “Nightcap on Eckert” which was a for those 21+ as it’s an espresso ice cream featuring cake and heath bar pieces, and is infused with kahlua. We will be back!

The Stil (Sweetest Things in Life) was sweet! Fresh, delicious ice cream! So many fun flavors to try. The worst part was choosing a few. We had a group of 5 and everyone was happy. Worth the trip.

Yes, the Stihl is awesome!! The music is great the staff is friendly and the ice cream is amazing. Do not miss this experience.

Solid BBQ. I've never been to a place that has vegan BBQ. It's a cool idea although I admittedly only tried the vegan chili (which was actually my favorite part of the meal - SO GOOD). I got the broodwich, essentially a French toast with syrup sandwich that is filled with Mac and cheese and pulled pork. It was a decent amount of food. Friendly service. I'd go there again👍

Was looking forward to a good trip tip sandwich and was slightly disappointed it was chopped beef instead of strips. The bbq sauce and the bread were good. I wish I would have tried the mac and cheese because the fries surprisingly did not have good flavor. The service is amazing and I'd go back because of the friendly service.

The wait staff was very friendly and did an awesome job. Food was really good. We purchased a pulled pork salad and fries that I asked to be crispy and were awesome! Then he got a tri-tip sandwich with BBQ sauce and mac&cheese on the sandwich. He LOVED it. He also got a side of the baked beans that were ok. The milkshake was ok, it was too thin for my taste. I also got the gluten free & vegan dessert, a lemon bar. Which was really good and not too sweet. There were many vegan or gluten free options. Their vegan meat they use is smoked tempeh, and they have a house made veggie burger. The food took around 25 minutes or so to get to our table with very few other customers. So may take longer during regular busy hours. All-in-all, check it out!

This was our first time trying food from Idaho as we’re traveling through. Being able to have traditional Idaho specialties as vegans exceeded our expectations. The scratch-made vegan and gluten-free options were incredible. The service was so friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere was perfect for both vegans and non-vegans.

I’ve been a vegetarian for years so it’s been a while since I’ve been to a BBQ place. I was intrigued seeing this place with quite a few veggie options. A lot of it was tempeh and I’m not a big fan of tempeh so I was a bit reluctant. The tempeh salad was delicious the tempeh was crumbly and functioned almost like a crouton. didn’t really taste like tempeh. The rest of the salad was good and I even liked the spicy cashew sauce. The black bean chili was also very good. Also I didn’t leave the place feeling bloated. The rest of my family isn’t vegetarian and they all liked their meals too.

My brother and I wanted to find a good barbecue place in Boise and this was the only one open at 8 ish on a Sunday night so we came here. The second we walked in we were greeted with multiple smiles and it seemed like all the staff was genuinely happy to be there which was so refreshing! I wasn’t sure if they would be upset we were coming in 45 minutes before close as I feel like a lot of times workers start closing early and are just annoyed or bothered when customers come in close to closing time but that definitely wasn’t the case here. We both got pulled pork sandwiches with sides of their mac and cheese and they were absolutely delicious and the price and portions are unmatched. We’re so happy to have stumbled upon this gem and both agreed this will definitely be a go-to for us in the future!!

Our family is always on the hunt for local spots when traveling and BBQ4Life did not disappoint! We had the pulled pork burger, pulled pork sandwiches, and 2 kids meals (grilled cheese and a burger). All the portions were great! The meats and sauce are 10/10. They have a great sweet tea and the kids enjoyed their strawberry lemonade. It's hard to find good vegan food (dairy intolerance in our family) and this place has THE BEST vegan desserts! We tried 3. Really, they are THAT good. We had the seasonal vegan bread pudding, vegan chocolate cake, and vegan lemon bar. All homemade and it shows <3 Kid friendly, a nice clean bathroom, and friendly staff. We will definitely be stopping here again when we're back in Boise!

This place has such a great vibe! I was thrilled to discover they now have their own ice cream at Albertsons. It's been a few years since I last visited, and I decided to try the huckleberry burger—it was fantastic! Despite the line, our food came out quickly. We stayed a few minutes after closing, and a staff member kindly opened the window to serve a cone to a mother and her young daughter who arrived 5 minutes after they closed the window. I was truly impressed by the level of service, which is hard to find these days. Thanks for the delicious shake and burger!

Fanci Freez is a no frills good old American style fast food kind of place. Walk up to the order window to place your order; when your name is called then go to the pickup window. Prepackaged sauces are available to liven up your fries. The little meal is plenty then follow it up with a soft serve cone and your there!

Just what you'd expect from a business that has been in town since before time began! This is just like a 1950 drive-in. Great burgers and fries and some of the best ice cream and milkshakes you'll ever find. It is ALWAYS busy. That's because it's always good. It's a fun place to go with the kids for ice cream. You can go through the drive-thru or hang out on the patio. It's just like the old days and still looks like it did 50 years ago. Every time I've been there, it's been very clean. The service is excellent, and also fairly fast for how busy they always are. The prices are fair and the people are always very nice. I would highly recommend Fanci Freez Burgers and Shakes. The experience and the old ice cream tastes are worth stopping for!

Love this spot. Huge selection of shakes. Food is great and reasonably priced. The service is fast and the employees are always friendly.

It was a really hot day and I wanted a milkshake. The girl at the window was pleasant, and the milkshake came very quickly. It was so thick you had to work to get it through the straw. What more can you ask?

Fanci Freez did not disappoint! Their fries and chicken strips are amazing. The huckleberry milkshake lived up to the hype of being voted Boise’s best milkshake.

Fanci Freez is a Treasure Valley treat! Fries and a Boston shake are my go-to and can never go wrong. But, this time I ordered the huckleberry burger...ah-mazing!! Just the right amount of sweetness with the bacon, cheese, and pickles. 10 out of 10!

Had to stop in to try the potato slice. It was delicious! It met all of my expectations as a pizza with potatoes. It was like a potato chowder on a slice. Loved it. Great atmosphere and super friendly staff. Thanks for the great visit!

Great fast and affordable eating solution, no thrill, good and fast service. If im need of a "quick carb fix" while im downtown boise....that's the spot;)

I love Thursday night pizza at pie hole. The music is awesome and the pizza is always scrumptious. Maddie is the coolest punk rock pizza making chick in Boise and the pizza always tastes so good. All of us love her, shes always so nice to us when we go. Never had a dull experience when she’s there. Thanks for keeping it real girl 🦇🍕

Late night pizza joint is what every touring band looks for in every city, its a pretty rare find, thankfully the pizza was amazing too!

Great slice and good quick service for a decent price. What’s there more to say? Easy bite to grab while crawling downtown bar to bar, AND they close late? You couldn’t ask for more. No indoor tables as of our last visit, only real seating is a smaller outdoor patio. This is ideally a stop and grab snack for bar crawling!

Loved this little pizza spot, stopped in here for lunch, decided to try something new. Potato, bacon, Alfredo pizza, Delicious! My husband got the Hawaiian, it was also good. Fun atmosphere and super friendly people behind the counter, definitely could tell they love what they do!

There are over 1K reviews for this place and not one of them mentions the concerning number of flies that are leisurely flying around inside, surely landing on all the ready-to-go slices laid out on the counter. Now, I don’t mean one or two. I spotted at least a dozen. Some flying about, others perched on soda machine and MANY sitting on the windows. I was very disappointed with this, especially since the workers were super nice. My husband said the pizza was great, but I could not get a slice for myself once I saw the flies. I don’t see how this is not a concern for the workers or the business owner.

Absolutely delicious!! The gluten free donuts were so light and fluffy it almost makes you concerned they mixed them up with regular donuts! Cute shop and nice workers. The service was very slow and I had to wait in line for over 20 minutes but very tasty! They don’t change gloves or anything though so there is lots of cross contamination.

My sister and I stopped in while visiting Boise for a couple of days. The donuts were fabulous - such great choices! The staff were all helpful and friendly and the space itself is fun and a great place to just hang around. I loved the pistachio and my sister loved her bananas foster donut.

Is it normal for a donut shop to break up your donut just to make it fit in a box? Like… did they run out of smaller boxes for three large donuts, or was this a creative choice? To make things even better, I ordered a chocolate old-fashioned. Maybe I confused the cashier when I asked him to change his gloves after handling cash? They definitely had larger boxes sitting right there—but hey, maybe those are reserved for people classy enough to only order two donuts.

It has been forever since I have had a donut from Guru. I don't think I have been in since the remodel. Guru was a hit at my wedding! Instead of cake I had a variety of donuts. Everyone couldn't get enough of them. It was later in the afternoon when I stopped in. I was in the area. I wanted a sweet treat so it was only common sense to come in. Since it was later in the afternoon, there were still a couple donut options available but not a lot. A couple sprinkled donuts, chocolate glazed rounds, chocolate bars and some coconut ones. Honestly, they all still looked hella good. I snagged a small chocolate glazed donut. It had fun sprinkles on top. The shop was getting ready to close in about 30. I sat at the window and smashed out my donut. I'm sure it was made this morning but it was still soft. It tasted so good! I probably could have had a couple more but I only needed one. I don't remember the donuts being as small as they are. This donut was pretty small but the ones I've had in the past seemed bigger. It has been a while since I have been in so I could be wrong. Eating that donut today brought me back to my wedding day. I can vividly remember how excited everyone was grabbing a donut from the "cake" table. It's amazing how something as simple as a donut could make someone relive some of their best memories. I'm happy I stopped in today. It was a great way to add a little happiness to my day.

Overall this place is great! Great service and lots of seating. Only giving it 4/5 stars though because I didn’t love the chocolate donut that I ordered (a little too dark chocolate-y for me but maybe someone else will like it).

OMG! This pace may have over done themselves! Gluten free and not just one flavor which is extraordinary for me!!! They are cake fried doughnuts and oh so moist! The only flaw is they are a hopping spot so you may need to wait a sec in line but so worth it! Sorry I didn’t snag a pic of my gluten free healthy doughnut or my sea salt chocolate doughnut gluten free… they did separate the regular doughnuts from the rest! It did not disappoint!

My husband and I stopped in this morning and I’m so glad we did! The donuts were outstanding and the bacon egg and cheese sandwich was one of the best I’ve ever had! Was delighted that they had coffee as well. The service was friendly and fast, we found our new breakfast spot in Boise!

Love the food. We stop here every time we can. The pho is great, BBQ sandwich is fabulous, vermicelli bowl is awesome but the egg rolls are the best in town. Always dip your sandwiches in their fish sauce. Love the Food

Order a sandwich if you go here. This place seriously has the best sandwiches. I haven't really had much else on the menu besides the spring rolls and those are good.

This is a completely respectable bahn mi in an unsaturated market of bahn mis in Boise. I unfortunately showed up with an American Express card which was not accepted by the store but they were willing to give me a small discount since I didn't have another card. I got an egg bahn mi and a grilled beef bahn mi. I will agree with other reviewers which state they skimp on beef. You will not get full on beef alone and will likely be a little bit annoyed. The egg bahn mi was respectfully filled and delicious. They are kind and make good food.

We had the rotisserie chicken and a BBQ pork. They were both very dry. The chicken was dry and stringy, and the pork was like jerky. The egg roll was very greasy. The workers were very nice.

My experience was okay. When I went in one time, I was not greeted or helped at all. Second time, is okay. The vibe wasn’t it. My bf and I saw roaches roaming around on the floor. In my whole life of going to eat at any places, this is the only place where I go eat and see roaches roaming around. The food quality is okay.

Some places are just not for me, and I’ll have to accept that. I want to love this place! The prices are reasonable and the service was very friendly. However, I ordered a sandwich (#5 grilled beef) and it was sooooo dry and flavorless that I waited until I was home keep eating and dressed it with mayo, rice wine vinegar, and sriracha. I absolutely won’t be going back and can’t recommend the sandwich at all. I didn’t have the heart for a lower rating though just because of the service and price point. But you’ve been warned!

Very authentic pho. I love pho and can cook it myself. I think this is the best pho in town. Very good serving for the price too. I’ve been to a lot of PHO restaurant in Boise and they don’t have much meat but this is loaded with meat and veggies and big portion of noodles too. 5/5!

Update: I called management to explain situation and they were more than willing to make it right! Offered refund or retry. We chose retry, will be giving them another shot with SAUCE ON THE SIDE. New review: CONSISTENCY! That’s all I got to say. Consistent good food is so important for me to go back to a restaurant again and again. The first time we had some of the best food ever, the second time it was inedible and we got the same thing!!! Way too much sauce!!!!! It made it inedible. I will not be back unfortunately. Original review: SOOOOOO GOOOD! All I need to say, we will be back! Got the hades gyro and Greek nachos with chicken

I ordered a Greek salad and a gyro with lamb. All the ingredients seemed fresh and delicious. They did notify me that they were mixing in beef with the lamb due to a shortage of lamb at the time. My salad had a ton of olives and tomatoes both which I very much enjoy so if you like those this is a great place to order a Greek salad. The girl at the front counter was pleasant and helpful and they prepared my to-go order fairly quickly. When I got back to my hotel to eat I opened up the bag and they had gotten my order correct so all was good. I was in town for work and looking for a place to eat and glad I found this restaurant. I would definitely recommend it.

We ordered for pick up and it was SO delicious that I had to fight the kids to get a bite. Seriously try the feta fries!!! My husband had the lamb gyro and said it was super tasty. I had the Souvlaki plate with chicken that was super flavorful and loved that the chicken wasn't dried out. Their pita is super soft and the sauces very taste.

Quick service, good food and lots of choices. The fries were seasoned really well. The chicken gyro was tasty and well made. Nice presentation and ambience, good staff too.

Meraki Greek Street Food opened a few months ago, next to P.F. Chang's in the BoDo district. Unlike Chang's, which serves typical Americanized versions of Chinese food, Meraki offers Greek food. Like the kind you would encounter in Greece. This was my first visit and as I peered up at the chalkboard menu, owner Aki Kalatzakis greeted me and started talking. He recommended a pork gyro, which he said was more traditional than the combination beef and lamb gyros (also on the menu) typically offered in American Greek restaurants. That instantly built trust in me because I have been studying Greek culture in preparation for a two-week trip to Athens and Crete in September. I have read several accounts saying pork and chicken are the most popular fillings for gyros in Greece, followed by beef and lamb, if you can find it. I ordered the pork gyro, along with a bowl of avgolemono soup, a traditional chicken soup laced with rice and a small amount of lemon juice. I finished the meal with a plate of Greek loukoumades, fried dough puffs topped with a honey syrup and walnuts. Everything was fresh and full of flavor. I really enjoyed the meal. The rest of the staff besides Aki was also friendly and engaged with other customers who came in for lunch after I arrived. They also had an interesting mix of carbonated beverages on tap, a line of craft soda pop called Stubborn Soda. I wasn't aware of that company but tried a black cherry with tarragon drink. It was very good. A table card listed a company name from Ireland. When I got home I looked them up and found it's a Pepsi company. But it was still good. This restaurant is a great addition to Boise.

The new menu items are delicious! Especially, the Hades Gyro! Spicy Habanero chips and aioli make this the most unique gyro I've ever had! Of course the lamb is always on point and cooked perfectly.

Was really hoping to enjoy this place, but no such luck. I came for a typical lamb Gyro, but they were out of lamb. Not sure how this happens just before the dinner crowd comes, but unacceptable. I went with a staff members' recommendation and go the pork. It was dry and not very flavorful. For the quality and price, I don't think I will be coming back.

I wish Guido's had either wood-fire, coal-fire, or gas-fire ovens, not the big electric commercial ovens. The flavor just isn't the same. I remember a foodie tour in Greenwich Village (2006) where we sampled all three fired styles of NY pizza. For a place outside Manhattan, though, Guido's is really good. The crust is a little thicker than what I remember in NY and so it doesn't have that soft fold (Guido's is a little stiffer). Also, there is no way to compare any crust to that made with limestone-filtered water from upstate NY. Good sauce and cheese. You can't beat the price at 3.50/slice. Large, just like in NY. Also, they reheat the slices in the big oven, not in a microwave as someone posted.

Best pizza I have had in awhile!! Baked to perfection and not too greasy! Doordashed 2 large pizzas (1 cheese and basil add chicken and 1 white sauce) and a large order of garlic bread (be sure to order garlic sauce on the side as it makes it even better!) Very fast delivery too and still hot when it arrived! 5 stars!!! Check this place out!! I know I will again!!

Great experience, very cool New York style pizza and atmosphere. Staff was knowledgeable about their product and presented it nicely! Not many options for pizza, but great if you like just the basics. Price is a little high for slices.

Great NY style slice. Called in and placed my pick up order with a friendly, helpful guy by the name of Daniel. Pizza was ready on time and delicious. One of my favorite places in the valley.

Trying to order a pizza at this location is literally like pulling teeth. They don’t answer the phone, and when they finally do, they’re less than enthusiastic. When we tried to pick up our phone order, we found that it was “given to someone else” and were asked to wait while they remake it even as the only person in the store at the time. Then, they remade it wrong and gave us one pizza when we ordered two—apparently they also lost the ticket? We ended up leaving with two pizzas still, but one was made wrong, and the other must’ve been someone else’s that they gave to us to get us to leave. I’d understand if this was a busy Friday night but as the only people in the store the whole time and calling ahead on a Sunday evening, I don’t know how this turned out to be such a headache. On top of that, the customer service is just terrible from start to finish. It sucks because we like the pizza and live right around the corner, but after this experience I don’t think we’ll be going back.

The guy with the Tattooed left arm selve is a real jerk! My wife and I usally order and pick our pizza up. That's it. The other day we were nearby and decided to go in order and wait. While we waited I looked at the sliced pizza. I went to the end and there was a pizza that I couldn't tell what was in it. The guy rolling dough and he asked me if I needed some help. I asked him what was that pizza. He said "It's the specialty pizza" and he went back to rolling dough and talked to his buddy. I figured maybe I missed where it was written. So I looked around (standing there) for while. No where was it listed. Finally another emplyee came over and asked me if I needed helped. I asked him what was the pizza. He said that it was the specialty pizza and named off what was on it. I thanked him and then the original guy looked up and I thanked him. However, my tone and look was "You're a jerk". I did not get a slice. We got our pizza. He knew what he had done because when we left he looked up and tried to give me a head nod. Really funny! You want to be a jerk go do it to someone else. We'll may go back, but order over the phone and pick it up. One more chance. I cannot judge the other guys based on a jerk. He was rude and a jerk.

Pepperoni pizza crust was crispy and flavor was great! Best pizza I've had in Boise. My new go to for pizza.

I came here with my boyfriend. The cashier helped suggest slices. We got the 1 slice and drink special, it was a good price! The table was clean and spacious. The crust was nice and fluffy and had a nice crunch. I liked the pepperoni and cheese. I'll be coming back

I’ve visited this location for various reasons no less than 30 times over the last few years. I stand by my belief this is the absolute #1 pizza by the slice location in downtown Boise. Yes, better than Guido’s and Pie Hole! Keep it up, guys!

This is easily one of my favorite pizza places in the boise area. Its that delicious fresh pizza by the slice. I return here frequently when I work in the area. These guys are a well oiled pizza machine and they do some good specials too. Go get you some!

I used to love this place. It was my go to pizza place. Ordered once a month minimum. Now I rarely order because I have no idea if my food will be burned. I started making notes on the delivery order to make sure it wasn't burned. Last night had friends over and ordered and forgot to add the note and the pizza was black on the bottom. We basically ate what parts we could and the toppings off the pizza. I can never remember his name but the long hair delivery driver is awesome and great personality. He definitely is an asset to the company.

Amazing Calzone. Solid service. Inviting atmosphere. What more can we ask for? Crust is crisp on the outside (HATE HATE HATE!!! “doughy”) Tender and light on the inside. Solid selection of draft beer. Decent pricing , amazing flavor, like this “slaps” (as the kids say) on about 13 different levels. Attaboyizes!!! AttaWellDun!!!!

This place is amazing! Easily the BEST CHEESESTEAK in Boise. The wings were top notch and the pizza was about the closest thing I've had to New York style crust. I cannot recommend this place enough, thank me later

Reading through the menu we saw the ‘metro guy’ and took it as a challenge. We were having multiple pizzas so we were willing to risk it. It was the favorite. Great pizza!

My husband and I stopped in on a whim and we started with the iced Hibiscus tea which was delicious! Please if you’re going to get a drink that’s non alcoholic let it be this one! So refreshing! We ordered the beef stroganoff and Elena’s favorite dish (chicken cutlets) everything was seriously so perfectly flavored. The host was nice and knowledgeable. 100% will be returning.

I visited Alyonka’s for the first time last Friday. I loved every bite I had. I started the meal with a bowl of borscht. The portions are generous and the soup is perfect for a cold day. It’s a vegetable soup but it’s very hardy and it’s made with love. You can taste it wasn’t cooked in a rush and then frozen like most places. Then I had both the Plov and Beef Stroganoff. The Stroganoff was tender and flavorful, but the plov was absolutely delicious. I didn’t expect it to taste so good. Lamb, perfectly cooked rice, carrots, garlic. A traditional dish cooked with care. Finally I had the dessert platter. I enjoyed every single thing, but the honey cake was the best. Not too sweet and a potent honey flavor and smell. It’s rare to have a cake with frosting you enjoy and don’t feel sick after, but this is one of those rare cakes. I loved it, and I will be back next time I’m in Boise!

Wow what a great meal! We heard about Alyonkas on DDD and saved it for future trips. Finally made it here today- so delicious! We had the veggie and caviar blini, borscht, the lamb plof, and the vareniki- all amazing. Authentic, fresh and did I mention delicious? We will be back next time we are in Boise. Just go, this place is a gem.

Fantastic food. Very personable service. Just in case, make reservations. They only have a few tables inside, but when sunny, there are more seats outside on the patio. Expect to leave FULL. Most of the menu is rich & authentic. Where else can you order a beef stroganoff with choice of buckwheat? Make sure to get hibiscus tea, which tastes like healthy Kool-Aid, & the beet salad. Listen to the server when she recommends how to eat the beef dumpling (with broth). The blini is more like a large crepe you open up & fill. But fair warning, it's all you need. Shaved beet salad may sound blah, but it's garlicky mayo goodness grows on you. I could eat just this with the tea & be fulfilled.

Delicious food. Loved the e honey cake! Big enough to share between 4. They have a nice lunch menu. The outdoor seating area is pleasant.

Absolutely delicious! I had the pleasure of bringing home food from Alyonka Russian Cuisine and was blown away by the flavors and quality. The Beef Stroganoff was creamy and rich—classic comfort food done right. The Chebureki was slightly greasy but incredibly flavorful, and the Honey Cake was light and satisfying. The real standout was the Pavlova—perfectly crisp on the outside, soft inside, and truly superb. I also tried Alyonka’s Favorite Assorted Desserts, a heavenly sampler that offered a taste of everything sweet and wonderful. This place is a gem—highly recommend for anyone craving authentic, satisfying Russian cuisine! I shared a tiny bit of the Stroganoff with my dog, Richard, and he gave it 5 paw prints!

Good home cooked Russian food, the chef/owner is very sweet and does all the cooking herself. The food wasn’t anything great really good, and so were the traditional Russian drinks. Outdoor patio dinings available

The food was delicious. This is not an understatement. The chicken was fresh and juicy. The Mac and cheese was creamy and to die for. And don’t forget, the rice was amazing too. First time here and I’ll definitely be back! Chipotle chicken tacos, with 2 sides and a drink for a killer deal!

Only the second time I've gone, once was eating inside and this time was carry out. I got the chicken enchiladas both times because the first time was 😳 so good. The chicken isn't shredded, it's chunks of fresh meat and it has actual flavor and a little kick to it. The beans with it are awesome as well. The service is awesome, and this was way more than one meal's worth of food. Great value and taste for the money! Edited to add: been back several times since and they're still delicious. My bf got their chicken combination with rice and Mac & cheese on the side, and he said it's some of the best chicken he's ever eaten.

Amazing food! The chicken green burrito was so good, lots of flavorful chicken and a slightly spicy but delicious green sauce on top. The chipotle ranch was also very good on top the beef burrito supreme. Would definitely go back next time we’re in Boise, hard to beat the prices on these giant burritos. Could easily share one burrito with two people.

Freshly grilled chicken and it's really good. Had the enchiladas. Nice to have a healthy alternative to burgers that tastes great.

I cannot stress enough, when my husband reminds me that this food exists and i cannot eat it now that we moved away, my day is ruined. THE BEST CHICKEN. THE BEST TACOS. THE BEST FLAVOR, THE STORE BEING AN EX WENDYS MAKES IT BETTER. I love you fiesta chicken. I miss you every day.

This is one of those hole in the wall joints that you shouldn’t miss. I went in for the chicken, and I will keep going back for the chicken. The breast meat was juicy and the flavor was fantastic. I love their broccoli salad and Cole slaw as well. If you’re in the area and looking for a healthy meal that tastes good, this is a great choice.

This has got to be one of the most underrated restaurants in the entire Treasure Valley, on my life. I really wasn't expecting much, but walked out blown away and woke up the next day still dreaming of this out-of-the-world food. 107.9 LiteFM's Michelle Hart does a fantastic thing where every so often she curates a list of 5 lesser-known yet highly underrated Boise eateries. Fiesta Chicken was featured on the second list published in February 4th. Until then, I never gave Fiesta a second glance. The name doesn't really stand out and I'd never heard anything about it. After reading Michelle's article and viewing the menu, I was intrigued and decided, what the heck. BEST DECISION EVER. A+++++ and more for value and quality! I ordered a #1: 3 Piece Leg & Thigh with rice and beans (comes when with two warm flour tortillas, but you can choose corn, $7.59) and my husband bellied up to a Carne Asada Supreme Burrito (beef, rice, bean, cheese, onions, cilantro, guacamole, pico de Gallo and sour cream, $6.79). We were both beyond impressed with our selections! The big hit was definitely the chicken. Grilled to perfection, the meat was amazingly moist, I'm taking melt-in-your-mouth moist and charbroiled to absolute perfection. It got me wishing I ordered the 4 piece just to have more goodness. Every bite combined with a spoonful of rice and beans took my tastebuds to heaven, over and over again. The rice and beans were an excellent combination, I wouldn't recommend any other sides. Rice was flavored very authentically, paired very well with the soft beans. The burrito was fantastic as well. Talk about value! For under $7.00 we got a burrito that lasted two meals. And it tasted just as good reheated the following day. Fiesta Chicken certainly exceeded my very mere expectations. It goes to show that you really shouldn't judge any place by it's name or location because it just might be some of the best food you'd ever eat. I was so delighted by this delicious experience I already planning to go back in a couple days with some friends. Thanks for a wonderful experience Fiesta Chicken! I can't wait for more.

Beautiful restaurant with incredible cocktails and even better food. My husband and I popped in for a late brunch today and were wowed by this restaurant. We were greeted promptly and sat on the patio and even though it was fairly windy outside, the patio was back far enough that we just enjoyed a light breeze. Our server was awesome, very friendly, attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. We ordered the Jungle Bird and the Bungalow to drink and both were delicious!! We will definitely be back for that alone! For brunch my husband had the Mushroom Toast and I had the Brioche French Toast along with an egg and bacon. My husband loved his dish and I thoroughly enjoyed mine. Usually after eating a heavier dish like French toast I feel lethargic and ready to go back home for a nap but this meal was incredibly satisfying without being too sweet or too heavy. The ingredients used at this restaurant are very fresh and the dishes are prepared thoughtfully. When we were done with our meal we took a better look inside and there’s a beautiful seating area right before the patio that we will definitely be taking advantage of in the future for a friends get together with some delicious cocktails and apps. Overall - 5/5. We will definitely be back!!

We had an amazing experience at The Stardust in downtown Boise! The food was absolutely fantastic, we tried the chicken & waffles, biscuits & gravy, eggs Benedict, and the meatloaf sandwich, and every single dish was spot on. The flavors were fresh, comforting, and perfectly balanced. On top of that, the mimosas were excellent, crisp, refreshing, and the perfect complement to brunch. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and it’s a great spot whether you’re out with friends, family, or just want to treat yourself to a quality meal. Highly recommend this place if you’re in Boise, definitely one of the best brunch spots in town!

Ian was absolutely stellar and provided superior service! The cuisine was exquisitely prepared and ridiculously delicious. Made for the most amazing date night and WILL be back again. This place is magic!

We sat at the bar and Daniel took very good care of us! The drinks were delish and beautiful! I highly recommend the Staghorn for all you bourbon drinkers. My gf had the Keywest Cat House, rum drinkers delight! We both had the seared black cod with, clams, muscles, salmon and shrimp in a saffron broth. ALL OF IT melted in our mouths! Full of flavor in every bite!!!

Let’s start with the high points - Joni P brought her great smile and warming attitude to our table every time she stopped by. Normally I don’t care for this level of contact. Today, it was magical. So was the food. Steak & Eggs - even better than Mitch described, Salmon Benedict - still can taste the tiny piece my wife shared with me, Croque Madame, delicious. And that banana bread - to die for. So, if you want a delicious brunch in a warm and welcoming place - and for the quality and quantity fairly priced - I’d go to Stardust next Sunday.

Unfortunately, our first experience here we were seated next to a group of people who were loud and swearing near constantly. It's not the restaurant's fault, but it made for a poor atmosphere for what was expected to be a peaceful dinner. The food was good tasting but somewhat boring in presentation. Our Old Fashioned was oddly served with a lemon rind rather than an orange. Service was ok, and the servers were fairly informative, but seemed pushy and impatient.

Bryan was fantastic from start to finish - attentive, answered questions and tons of insights. Drinks were fun, appetizers were bold and filling - especially the grilled artichoke fondue. The pot pie and shrimp and lobster bisque were hot, well seasoned and finished with an amazing apple cobbler. Great experience overall!

I have been wanting to come to this joint for a long time but with other local joints opening up and my husband's favorite breakfast joint we frequent, coming here was challenging. My friend wanted to meet up for breakfast and asked for some options. I threw out Goldy's and Goldy's was what we both decided on. It's late morning on a Tuesday, I didn't know how busy it was going to be. Walking in, I was greeted and was told my table options. It was nice to be able to get in so quickly. I have heard this joint can have quite the wait time but not today. Little did I know they have an upper dining area, I thought that was pretty cool. I opted for a table on the main floor. I was quite mesmerized by the chandelier with angel wings all over the bulbs. It was a beautiful piece to look at. I got my coffee dropped off right away. My friend and I did breeze over the menu for a while. We were like two chickens clucking trying to catch up. Our server was really patient and gave us a minute to buckle down and decide on what we wanted. For breakfast I got the 3 egg omelet with spinach, asparagus and feta. I passed on the bread and potatoes for fresh fruit. Everything came out hot! My omelet was busting out of the seams with asparagus. It looked hearty! You can see the feta partially melted on top of it. My fruit plate was vibrant! It was beautifully plated with berries, citrus, pineapple and apple slices. The berries were fresh and tart. The strawberry was so sweet. The blueberries were firm and tasty. The orange was fresh but bland. I didn't get to try the grapefruit but it smelled devine. The pineapple was my favorite! I had about half of my omelet! It was massive. I loved how much veggies was in the middle of it. The spinach and asparagus was cooked perfectly! I don't know what it was about the texture of the eggs but I didn't really like it. The eggs were stiff and not really fluffy. It was foamy like. I have had some omelets where the eggs are fluffy but in this case it wasn't like that. It was still good but it's probably something I wouldn't order again. I'm happy I finally got to check out this joint. It's a landmark for Boise and I can see why. It's tiny, vibrant and fun plus it's been around for years. I love the vibe here very much! Our server did a great job taking care of us today. Coffee was hot and the food was fresh. It was a great day to check it out. I finally get to mark Goldy's off my to do list.

Pros & cons: Pros: hosts & servers are super-nice. If they're busy & they usually are, they'll ask if you'd like to wait at Goldy's Corner just a few yards away, you can order coffee & pastries there, & they'll call you when your table's ready. Drip coffee is amazing. They have mango, guava, & other juices. Orange juice tastes fresh-squeezed. Lots of unusual menu items, influenced by Basque culture. Cons: the food, which was reasonably good, took forever, juices were lukewarm, Eggs Benedict's hollandaise was a bit lemony rather than savory, portions (sides) were a little small, grits had zero flavor -- even when you add tons of salt & butter, restrooms (only two stalls upstairs) are cramped, no handicapped stall or ramp.

Worth a trip to visit this fantastic breakfast place! I had the Eggs Benny and a Biscuit with Gravy; my wife had the pancakes, scrambled eggs, and bacon. The Benedict was divine, with a super fluffy hollandaise sauce and perfectly poached eggs. Biscuit and gravy was really good as well; sausage gravy has a good amount of pepper but is very good. Biscuit was excellent. Pancakes are huge and fluffy! Service was outstanding. Atmosphere is busy and noisy but everybody was having fun, including us.

11JUN2025: I could fly to Boise JUST for this breakfast. My goodness. Stumbled across this place and so glad we did, what a gem! Landed a table on the second deck, and the food was incredible across the board. Mushroom, spinach, ham and bacon omelet, crisp bacon (NEXT LEVEL ON FLAVOR), biscuit, bread, potatoes… this was as good as it gets. Thank you, Jamie, for the 5-star service and thank you Goldy’s Bistro for a breakfast we continue to rave about. One tip: If you do check in and can get a second-floor table against the rail (vice inward), looking below on the other patrons if you are people watcher, could add to the experience.

Despite being rather busy the kitchen and wait staff seemed to feel no sense of urgency. I waited 30 minutes for my dish which would have been completely fine, but nothing on my plate was actually hot which begs the question of why did it take so long if obviously it had been sitting somewhere? As a solo diner sitting at the counter normally these tickets are prioritized because the kitchen can easily get them out of the way, but that doesn't seem to be how they do things here. The dish itself made no sense. It seems like someone was desperately trying to come up with different takes to fill out their different eggs Benedict dishes, so they said how about if we just throw some chicken and bacon in there and use a "spicy" (it was not spicy) hollandaise, that will make it look like we know what we're doing! No, no it does not. You grilled a flavorless, dry chicken and stuck it under a supposedly poached egg which I never actually tasted because the whole thing was drowning in a sloppily made "spicy" hollandaise that was as thick as it was boring. The hash browns were hash browns and they would have been fine if they were actually hot. The only thing good was the coffee. The wait staff was friendly, but unpolished. I had a quarter of my plate left and someone brought me my check unprompted without asking if there was anything else I wanted. Also, the music, what vibe are you actually going for here? If it's chaotic mess, you nailed it.

I had the Andalusian eggs and I would absolutely say it was in the top 10 breakfasts I’ve ever ordered. Fantastic. My husband had a create your own skillet and it was also a win. I would not hesitate to go here again

Nice breakfast spot serving up classics. I ordered the Eggs Benedict with Goldy's Special Potatoes. They were good, I don't know that I would seek it out. They also offer their Goldy's Special seasoning if you'd like to take the experience home.

Unfortunately, we had a very bad experience here today. We had a large group of 11 people which understandably can be a bit overwhelming at times and we try to take that into account when finding a restaurant. We were very excited to try this restaurant as we have heard good things and spend a lot of time at the other basque restaurants. When we first walked in we were relieved to see that the restaurant was almost empty! It went down hill from there though. We were immediately treated poorly. The server was outwardly rude and obviously annoyed that we were there. We sensed this and tried to offer to help move tables together to try and take some of the burden off and we were met with harsh words. We were honestly taken back, since most of us have worked in The service industry we try to be good customers. It was so bad that we decided to walk out. The cook followed us out and apologized but the outright rudeness from the servers made us feel completely unwelcome. Luckily the restaurant across the street was happy to serve us and we had a wonderful meal.

Lovely Basque cuisine. The croquettas and pork sandwich were delicious and they had a fun selection of beer. The patio made for fun people watching.

Came here on suggestion from another bar, lamb stew and a original basque cider, the staff here is really great and friendly. Definitely a place to come and eat and enjoy some good drinks. A lot of good stuff on tap but the food menu is something that you got to try. Also not too expensive, you don't get service like this in many places. Great staff

I order the lamb stew and croquetas, which came with bread and a pickle. For my taste, I think the lamb needed a bit more if flavor but in overall it was ok. This is a mistake I keep doing cuz I like to try different food, but I have a very sensitive stomach and this meal was very heavy for me. So if somebody has a stomach problem, don't copy me and order something lighter 😅🥗

A fantastic little restaurant with excellent food. The outdoor seating and service was lovely. The croquetas are very authentic and delicious and I loved my braised lamb sandwich.

I visited Bar Gernika on my final night in Boise. The hustle and bustle of the Friday night crowd was apparent, but I was greatly kindly and led to high-top once a table came open. The restaurant may not be bright and chic, but its heart pours out from every nook and cranny. I started with their daily soup - a creamy, umami-packed mushroom bisque that was so good I inhaled before I even got my beer (or took a picture). For dinner, I had their Basque chorizo sandwich with a side of traditional croquetas. The chorizo was deeply spiced with a kiss of heat, complemented by the sweetness of the grilled onions and pimientos. The croquetas were piping hot and perfectly crisp - try them with the tangy Tiger sauce in bottles on each table! All of this was appropriately washed down with a local nut brown ale. Needless to say, I left with both my heart and belly full. The staff all clearly care deeply about the food and the customers - especially the chef who works endlessly over a hot stove, yet still finds time to bring you your food with a genuine smile. If you're in Boise looking for a taste of Basque food, I implore you to go give Bar Gernika an evening of your time.

Did takeout of the lamb stew and Croquet. Very very good (even the slice of bread that came with the stew)!

If my kid was with us he’d say this place is “ “bussin”, but he laugh at me for using it. But the food is amazing. We got the Bison burger, margarita, pizza and the Focaccia Grinder. Everything has a unique taste, they don’t play it safe here and it works. We all loved the food. The bison burger was incredible.

First time here and we are so glad we tried. We had the honey lemon chicken pizza and it was PHENOMENAL! Just the right mix of sweet and bitter and then a citrus taste with the lemons. Drinks were also very tasty and service was extremely friendly.

I had a great time in Juniper! All in all, the service was great, the cocktails were amazing, and the dishes were tasty and well cooked. The staff was willing to answer questions and provide recommendations. Additionally, I felt as though the menu was well curated based on what vegetables and produce was in season/locally available.

They got us in without a reservation since we were planning only to have a cocktail and dessert ON A FRIDAY NIGHT! We didn't feel rushed and we were done and out before the table reservation. Cocktails were great, dessert was interesting...

OMG, the pizza is absolutely fabulous. Specifically, the duck confit pizza, cooked in a stone oven covered in melt in your mouth duck, cheese, and a touch of arugula for a touch of freshness. Drinks and service are average. It was very busy, and sitting directly at the bar, we had to wait too long for a second drink.

2 Stars: Anticipointment.  That's what we felt last night.  Juniper was a restaurant I've been wanting to try out for sometime.  We finally had the opportunity to go and thought it would be a great place to eat before a show. We knew that a Saturday night might be busy so we made reservations more than 2 weeks ago. The party of 8 was excited to have an adult evening for dinner and a show.  We walked in before our reservation time and was seated to eat.  Everything looked great in the cover.  Other than a both table that was too small for a party of 8.  It was literally shoulders and legs touching shoulders and legs tight.  In fact one person had to sit slightly at an angle.  Even though we were really cozy in there, it was great to be out. The restaurant has a neat vibe and is in a good location. The server comes over to get some drinks and explain that he is just filling in until our normal server arrives. We didn't think anything of this and ordered some drinks. There was an issue with one of the drinks, which I will get to shortly. It is now 30 min into our evening and they now take our order.  We quickly ordered and we were all looking forward to what we had chosen.  About 10 min later out server came back to us and said that there was going to be a 45-60 min wait for the food.  This is not going to work, as we would be late to the show.  She said they were just backed up and asked if we just wanted appetizers instead.  Grown adults don't want to just share some Rosemary fries. At this point one of the people in our party realized their drink glass was broken on the inside.  The server did replace the drink a few minutes later. Then we find out that the 5 or so minutes that went by while the server was there waiting that she never even put our order in queue.  So, now if we did l decided to wait for our food we were behind even more people.  She should have put the order in, then told us so we didn't lose our place in line.  We told her that we will just leave and find something else. The server then asked if the check was together or separate.  Really, there is a check?  We asked to speak to the manager and recounted everything that transpired. She appologized and helped us out with the drinks and gave us motivation to return. I can't speak to the quality of the food or bathrooms.  The drinks were good except the glass in one of them.  The service was severely lacking and the restaurant can't handle to be full. I'm the future, when we are able to try it again, we will make sure we have a 4 hour window.  Or maybe Juniper will be there destination with nothing afterwards. I am looking forward to updating this review in the future. Update: 3 Stars: Last Friday night we tried Juniper again in hopes for a better evening. We didn't plan anything after dinner this time so we could make certain to get food. This experience was much different than the first. We arrived with reservations at 6:30 early. We were seated promptly downstairs vs upstairs last time. It was was not as loud and we could carry a conversation across the table. We only had 4 of us on this trip, so that could have helped. The Food: We ordered the Rosemary Fries to share. They were seasoned well, and perfectly crispy. I ordered the lamb burger with bacon, my wife ordered the salmon. The salmon, she said, was very good. I requested my lamb be medium, but it turned out to be well done. The burger had good flavors that complemented each other well. If the burger was not dry, it would have been perfect. The salad was not bad, but way over drenched and saturated. I raised the star count by one because this experience was night and day different over the first visit. But because my burger was over cooked and dry I couldn't give them a 4th.

Amazing food and our server was the best in a long time. The rosemary truffle fries were out of this world.

I’m leaving this review for Bug in the bakery. What an amazing human! I requested a vegan birthday carrot cake, with custom writing on the top.Bug went above and beyond to make me something truly special and unique. They had an incredible attitude while I was working with them, and they made sure everything was how I needed it to be. I am so grateful and pleased with the cake I received. And the flavor is spot on! Thank you again, Bug! You made my birthday special ❤️

So much praise!!! The Co-op is a fantastic place to have cater your next event. They have vegan and gluten free options, and great trays to select from. Dylan was absolutely amazing! He took such interest in helping us select our trays and personally made sure the order was what we expected. You can really tell people like what they are doing at the Boise North End Co-op. Catering is absolutely affordable, and you get such great personal service. Thank you for such a great experience!

La Fermière is my favorite yogurt company. They are a family-owned French yogurt company that has been around since 1952. They recently added a line of French Desserts. The Boise Co-op in Boise, is the only place in Southern Idaho that is carrying them. They have three of the five flavors. I’ve tried all three. I started with the one that I expected to be my least favorite, CRÈME CARAMEL, because I don’t particularly care for caramel. Surprise! Surprise! It turned out to be my favorite of three flavors. The Vanilla and Chocolate flavors are good, but they don’t begin to compare to the Caramel flavor. La Fermière’s CRÈME CARAMEL is one of the best things I’ve eaten in 2024! French Crème Caramel is a vanilla custard that’s baked on top of a layer of caramelized sugar, served upside down with a caramel sauce pouring over the sides. It’s somewhat similar to Flan in flavor, but closer to a crème brûlée in texture. La Fermière’s Crème Caramel incorporates the caramelized sugar/caramel, into the vanilla custard. The Boise Co-op in Boise also has the most flavors of La Fermière yogurt. The second best location is the Boise Co-op in Meridian, which has yogurt, but none of the desserts. Highly Recommended!!! P.S. I recommend calling the Boise Co-op to make sure this product is in stock before you go to pick some up.

I stop by every morning after my night shift to grab my coffee, and I just want to take a moment to recognize the amazing team that’s always there holding it down--Zoe, Alex, Annie, and Bryce. They’re consistently pleasant, upbeat, and genuinely kind, even in the early hours. No matter how tired I am walking in, I always leave with a smile thanks to their energy and great customer service. It’s clear they care about what they do, and it makes a real difference. Just wanted to say thank you for starting my mornings off on the right note.

First, we love the Boise Co-Op and have for years. They have such yummy and easy food. Not to mention a great gift/fun stuff section too. But the main reason I am writing the review to sing praises for their bakery. We’ve always loved the chocolate turtle torte cake. Seriously, my favorite cake of all time. But recently decided to order a cake for a surprise baby gender reveal. When I say they went above and beyond, I am not joking. The cake was, beautiful, delicious, and HUGE. And the bakery team, specifically Bug, the main baker who helped us, provided the BEST customer service. She was professional, helpful, and genuinely excited/happy for our little family. It made our experience top tier and I am so grateful for the Co-Op, their bakery team, and especially Bug!

If you are looking for the best food in town and the best place to buy local products, the Boise Co-op is an excellent choice. The selection of food and products is truly unmatched, and their team members' knowledge and customer service are incredible.

Rascal and Ethan were on point!! Super busy but they were working super hard getting things done with a smile on their faces. Super refreshing unlike other deli’s!

I have to say, this was the perfect place to eat just before my flight. I had a long flight that day and only an hour before I had to leave for the airport. The waitress served us right away, and of food came quickly. The plates were large and the prices were fair. I don't order drinks anymore, $4 for an ice tea or watered down coke anywhere you go is just crazy! Water with lemon is just fine. I have to say, I really enjoyed eating at Eddie's. There are plenty of tables and if you're in a hurry like me, there is a counter bar to sit at. Good food, great service and reasonable prices.

A 50's style diner, very quiet. We went on a Saturday at 2:00 p.m. and there were plenty of tables open. Our waiter did a nice job. His name was Sam. We didn't have to wait very long for our food and he did a good job making sure that all our needs were taken care of. I had chicken fried steak and it was great. It came with three sides. I chose fresh squash, loaded baked potato and soup. I look forward to going back.

First time here with my family of 13!! My cousin lives in Idaho and he said this is his favorite little place for breakfast. It was the only breakfast place that could actually get a medium rare on my steak. It was excellent!! Food was absolutely delicious and service was great. Highly recommended!!

My wife and stop here on are way through east or west, to have a quick visit with family. It’s always great. This time the large pack of Corvettes in the parking lot. They from the newest all the way back to a 1954 I think it was. Awesome experience always

We’ve only been here 2x and so far it’s been a great experience both times. It gets busy on the weekends so you might have to wait a bit. The food is typical diner fare and the servers are so nice. It has a family friendly, relaxed atmosphere & plenty of parking.

We stopped by after a Soccer ⚽️ game and had a great experience 👍. I had asked an AI (Gemini) to recommend a restaurant with great Chicken-fried Steak, and we were also needing great Hamburgers... Eddies was a top-rated place, so we gave it a try and were not disappointed. The Cheeseburgers 🍔 got eaten quickly, and my Chicken 🐔 Fried Steak was great. We all agreed that we'd eat here, again, soon! The food was fresh, and cooked perfectly 👌. Thanks, Gemini AI, for telling me about this place. The location is great, and easy to find. Thanks to the cooks and staff that made our experience memorable.

The oldies but goodies atmosphere was exceptional. Admiring the pictures of the real classics, unique license plates line the walls. Food was served hot. The taste of home cooked food, comfort for the soul. Friendly staff the moment we walked through the door.

I visited 5 Boise Breweries, and I really loved the vibe of this one!! (Honestly, the beers in all of them were good!) Bert's Brewing was also very nice.

Best beer in Boise, hands down! 🍻 Payette Brewing nails it every season whether you’re lounging by the fire pit in winter or soaking up the sun in their outdoor chairs during summer. The dog-friendly atmosphere makes it a go-to for locals (my pup especially loves that the staff hands out treats!). It’s the perfect post-hike, bike ride, or river float stop, and the vibe is always welcoming. Bonus: you can grab cans to-go for your next adventure. Between the friendly staff, great beer, and laid-back energy, Payette is one of those places you can always count on. Highly recommend if you’re in Boise!

was having a good time w family when we ordered 7 drinks and they only gave us 6. When we came back to to ask for our final drink a lady in a trucker hat gave us attitude and refused our beverage. One last tip…be kind to your customers that are spending a good amount of money and give us our final drink that we paid for. Very disappointed and they should be embarrassed by their behavior.

Good dogs are welcome at @payettebrewing 🍺 Dog friendly inside and an outdoor patio that has games! Great drinks, and great food trucks! My humans had the Loaded Tots 🥔 and Smoked Chicken Wings from @queenstrailer🍗 It was such as fun time in Idaho!-@brewskibrewreviews

Born and raised in Boise but neither me or my parents have been to this gem. First it's dog friendly so when my uncle showed up with his dog it was all good. The beer menu is outstanding but the best feature was the young person behind the bar. She was super helpful and patient, allowing my parents to test several offerings before settling on something they liked. Such a good atmosphere. I haven't been anywhere in Boise better. Highly recommended!

Huge outdoor and indoor areas - great for large groups. Lots of beer on tap and plenty of to-go options in the fridge. Dog friendly and there is cornhole in the mostly-shaded backyard. Of the breweries we saw in Boise, this was our favorite.

Cutest little places!!! I’m not a beer drinker, but they did have a cider. Great outdoor space that’s dog & kid friendly. Staff was nice. Huge fire pit outside that will be great to use come fall/winter. The bathrooms are so fancy! Very clean. I will definitely be back!

My niece suggested Flying M for my morning coffee fix and tbh Ry did not disappoint. Great coffee and awesome vibe! Highly recommend! Delicious selection of savory and sweet baked goods and potato pancakes too!!

Walking into the coffee shop Giftshop is quite colorful, they have a large selection of stickers and mugs along with Gag gifts, and friendly staff. The coffee I ordered was a white chocolate mocha but it wasn’t very sweet kinda plain but it did have a wonderful cream design on the top as pictured. The coffee prices are rather cheap for Boise and the food prices were also very affordable for Boise.

Cool little coffeehouse in downtown Boise. Great place to get an espresso and study or chat with friends. We like it because it one of the few coffee places open in the evening. Lime scooters nearby make it a convenient spot close to everything. Oh, and the drinks are quite tasty!

Seriously amazing, at 8pm there’s still people here, staff are VERY friendly (both times we came here), and not only are they friendly but stellar at making lattes !! I even bought some coffee beans to bring home for my espresso machine. I’d say I would be back but we already have been 😂 Such a cool vibe, amazing coffee, great location. I mean, I seriously cannot come up with a single complaint… I’m not one to hand out 5 star reviews easily but this place deserves it.

Literally the best coffee shot in the treasure valley!! The staff is so incredible kind! Coffee and treats are always a hit! But what makes them stand out to me is their constant support for women’s reproductive rights and the rights of the lgbtq community! Plus they keep the cutest trinkets in their shop!! Thank you flying M!

The staff was very nice and quick at making my coffee. Atmosphere was cool and so were the people + they sell pretty cool things! Definitely recommend coming here to hang.

Late post. When I’m on a trip the first thing I do is to look for a local coffee shop on Google Map. I found my initial cafe and I thought I had to check it out. I ordered a decaf mocha and a butter croissant for breakfast. The mocha was very good, not too sweet or not too bitter. The barista made my mocha perfect! The croissant was very fresh as crispy outside and soft inside. They also have unique merchandise in the store.

Cool place, good area, bad food, good mimosas. Pot roast dip is super sweet in a not good way, tots horrible, sprang chicken had old bread and brown stringy avo, pretzel sticks are bland pieces of bread literally (see photos)

Came here for lunch and we really liked it. I had the chicken pesto and my wife had the French dip. Both of these sandwiches were fantastic!! It’s a fun atmosphere in downtown, would definitely recommend it!

We met family there this morning and we all loved it. They are from Mississippi and they loved the restaurant, downtown area and Freak Alley.,They eat vegetarian and both found good things to order. . My husband and I had sandwiches, both so good. One the lady at the back was super busy bagging orders but she stopped to take our picture.

Gteat food and reasonable prices. The atmosphere is a nice chill vibe with good music and fantastic service. I would eat here again.

👏🏾 10 👏🏾 out 👏🏾 of 👏🏾 10 👏🏾 would 👏🏾 recommend 👏🏾. Good vibes and DELICIOUS sammies, soups and salad. Our group got a variety of it all and enjoyed every part of it. The tomato bisque was genuinely one of the best I’ve ever had. Everything was fresh and tasty. Take my word for it AND go check them out.

Super good sandwiches and tots! Very good service with good vibes in the restaurant. The owner was super cool and chatted for awhile. It’s really cool that they donate a sand which for everyone bought each month.

We ordered for the first time at Even Stevens and were very satisfied with the food quality & taste. It's got a cool vibe inside and some patio seating.

I came in just for dinner, but I think this is a better place to hang out and have a few beers or margaritas. I tried the pork burrito, which was just ok. The texture of the pork was kind of like a puree, so overall the texture was kind of a mush. I ordered the 'hot' roja salsa, which was what I would consider mild. If you like spicy, aim for one of the hotter salsas on the menu. To sum up, I would come back here for drinks, but I would skip the food or get something other than a burrito.

I stopped into this neighborhood bar alone, just hoping for a chill place to have a drink. Instead, I ended up dealing with one of the most unwelcoming, judgmental bartenders I’ve ever come across. From the moment I walked in, it felt like they’d already decided I didn’t belong there. I wasn’t bothering anyone, I wasn’t being loud. I was just sitting by myself with a drink. But every interaction felt cold and condescending, like serving me was some kind of chore. I’ve gone to plenty of bars by myself, and I’ve never had a bartender make me feel uncomfortable for simply being there. Any time I asked a question or ordered something, I got attitude back. It’s wild how a place can call itself a neighborhood bar but treat a paying customer like they’re doing them a favor by acknowledging them. Overall, it was an unnecessarily negative experience, and I definitely won’t be returning. There are plenty of bars in town where you can actually feel welcome and not judged for walking in alone.

Solid 4 across the board. Long line, but the friendly staff efficiently moved it along. They gladly helped to explain the menu and answer any questions. Good portion sizes & everything is fresh. Small burrito is huge! All dishes we had were flavorful. Reasonable prices & clean dining area. Free drink refills!! Sunny outdoor patio in the back. The only issue is the limited parking availability, so find a spot on the street.

I love the bar staff. They’re hospitable, personable, fun and just amazing. The food is awesome too. I came in today and a few other times at times ranging from 9:50, 9:49 and 9:55, and the kitchen is closed. When I inquired with bar staff on kitchen hours, I’ve been told the kitchen closes at 10pm. I’ve even been reminded by bar staff to order food before the kitchen closes with almost 10 minutes to spare, but the kitchen is closed, to bar staff’s confusion. What ARE the kitchen hours, exactly?

We went in to the Hyde Park sports bar today to watch some live sport (Premier League soccer). The staff member was completely disinterested in switching channels and after asking twice, eventually said “the network isn’t connected.” So much for being a sports bar. No thanks. I’ll take our business elsewhere.

So here you order at a counter. We got the Nachos with the smoked chicken and all the fixings. Ohhh, so good, we couldn't stop eating it and we were a party of 4 and should have stopped! We had some yummy drinks while watching all the TV's with football.

Great food, fast service, and a laid back atmosphere, I'll need to go back when the weather warms up and relax on the patio with another burrito and a few cold beers.

For some reason the manager doesn’t really seem to care how they serve customers. I’m not sure why they don’t teach employees to correctly read an order and how come they shrug it off like it’s nothing. I ordered a Jr Kids Slam and received 4 sausage links and eggs. No pancakes, no grapes. Nothing else . My side of Mac and cheese was suppose to come with banana’s too, didn’t get any of that. They thought it was just okay to throw in extra hashbrowns and eggs. I paid for what I ordered not what you guys felt like making. I’ve worked in the restaurant business before, this is truly a disappointment. And the fact that they’re not doing anything about it either is where it gets worse. The manager HUNG up on me. It’s a great thing I know about corporate(:

Had a fantastic time with great service and some of the best prepared food I’ve ever had at a chain restaraunt. They take their jobs seriously and it was a great experience! Even made a “happy boyday” lava cake to match the celebration we were having. I walked in thinking “I don’t know why we’re going to Denny’s” and walked out thinking I wanted to go there for my next celebration.

beautiful dishes, but the morning was overshadowed by the fact that there were no steaks: / and the cape that was in the pan was very dirty and interrupted the appetite. and to be honest, the taste of the dish in the pan, let's say - for an amateur, but personally, I certainly won't order this again! 3 pieces of chicken and a whole pan of potatoes and peppers.

Great way to start the morning while visiting Idaho! Had the crazy spicy skillet, it was delicious as it always is at most Denny's. Sean was our server and he was fantastic. Gave great customer service and was hustling as he helped 4 tables. I watched him sanitize his tables as people left. My husband and I were sat in a back corner table and Sean still managed to check up on us several times for water and more. Thank you Sean!

I give this Deny’s a 1 star rating for a very specific reason. I asked the very nice young lady serving food why they had fans everywhere. She stated their AC wasn’t working. I overheard some of the employees stating that they were feeling sick because of the heat but the owners don’t care enough to repair/replace the AC unit. Clearly they don’t care about customers either! This is the United States of America in the 21st century. This should NOT be allowed! I believe strongly in supporting local businesses and understanding costs and expenditures but this is not safe (at over 100 degrees today) or humane! FIX YOUR AC!!!

Lovely little place. We were seated quickly and order taken in a timely fashion. Our waitress was amazing! The food was served fast and was delicious!

Good food and a good amount too clean good service I’ll definitely come back here when I pass thru town again

I’ve had good food from here the other two times I’ve been, but Big Bun should be embarrassed with the quality of food/service given today. We ordered the fish and chips basket with tartar sauce, we got burnt fish, burnt onion rings, and ranch dressing. The fish and onion rings were dripping with brown grease, and were inedible. No lemon or malt vinegar, to boot. The milk shake we ordered had an undertaste of chemicals- couldn’t place it, but it was off. I root small for local businesses, which is I’m leaving three stars, but something here is wrong.

This place is a classic, needs to live for forever. 4star service cause lines and waits can get long but all in all this place doesn't miss. With solid options for everyone. Vegan options too. Great drinks. Great shakes. Great service! Cool environment!

Went for lunch, ordered Bacon Cheeseburger, Chicken Sandwich, Tater tots, Fries, and a vanilla shake. Service was quick, and the food was good. Wish they had a western burger with onion rings and BBQ sauce. Sometimes, there's even a car show in the parking lot.

Thought it was a little spendy but the portions were big, employees were friendly, and the food was yummy! We loved sitting on the patio where our kids could run around a bit without disturbing anyone inside. It was very clean too!

I came here with my family. The wait wasn't too bad (about 5-10 minutes). I got the bacon cheeseburger and fries. It was so good! The cheese was perfectly melted and I like how they keep it simple on the toppings. The fry sauce and ketchup were great. I liked the bun for sure. It has sesame seeds but they weren't falling off like sand. The fries were great and you get a lot for a good size! (Medium) I tried the mozzarella sticks and they were good. A little bit too seasoned but overall 8/10. I will be coming here again. A little bummed how no bathroom was available but its all good.

So great to be back here! One of a kind dive in all the right ways. We are from the family the Tom Cafferty sandwich was named after :)) The food tastes amazing and there are lots of GF Vegan options, if that's your bag; which is quite rare for grab and go dining. Lots of character from employees and that quality spicy love is smashed into every aspect of each entre at Boise's own Big Bun 👏 👌 🙌 😍

This place is awesome, especially for vegan options. We love coming here any time of year. The outdoor seating is comfortable and they have heaters to keep you warm in the winter. Staff is friendly and food is delicious!

Good good good! Hot fries and a tasty burger. I love how they don’t hold back on the French fries and pile em in the bag. If you’re needing a greasy burger with a cold soda Five Guys is definitely the place to get it. I haven’t had a bad experience at this location.

Food was great as always but the poor workers were working with no ac in extreme heat. Although they didn’t say anything you could feel the heat and tell they were too. Shame on the owner!!!! Your employees should be valued more than this.

We were the only ones waiting for an order, no rush. Over an hr until closing. They got BOTH of our burgers wrong, like way wrong that it’s laughable and look at all these fries! Burnt to a crisp except one 😂 these are only half the fries too…we ended up just throwing all the fries away because they were hard and inedible. We paid $30 for this. This is literally disgusting. Purchase and posted evening of 2/28/23 Ps why is it two reviews down they had the same exact experience a month before us…?!

Five stars for sure! This team works well together, treats each other with respect and a pleasure to watch. Sybrina greeted me with a cheerful hello and was very engaged with me and my order. She also offered an cheerful smile and asked how much burger was. She has this positive attitude with each guest. What a pleasure to have service oriented people working!!! Keep up the great work team!!! In case it doesn’t go without saying…. The burgers are worth $10!

Cole is the Man! Went above and beyond to help me with an Uber Eats order. I hope whatever promotion is available, that this man gets awarded it. Because of him I will be recommending this 5guys location to my friends and will be a returning customer

The management here is great. Had a mix-up on my original order and Cole made a whole new order for me free of charge.

Great experience. Friendly and energetic employees, good food, clean facilities, and wonderful atmosphere. 10/10

We stopped by Westside Drive In in Boise after hearing it was the place to try Idaho’s famous finger steaks—and it did not disappoint! The finger steaks were perfectly cooked and full of flavor. And of course, we had to try their famous ice cream potato—what a fun and quirky Idaho treat! It looked just like a baked potato, but was actually a delicious ice cream dessert. The retro 50s diner vibe added to the charm and made the experience even more memorable. This place totally lived up to the hype. A 5-star stop and a must-try if you’re in Boise!

I've been here a few times now and have tried several menu items. Nothing I've had "wows" me or is something I'd return for with the exception of the fish and chips, which are some of the best I've ever eaten... Their seasoned, battered fries are excellent. Everything I could want in a French fry! The large portions of flaky, white fish are also prepared to perfection. Both of these are best with as much fry sauce and dilly, tartar sauce as you can handle. Service is always attentive and friendly but sometimes pretty slow. The venue is nice with plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy on a nice day.

I got the Monte Cristo, I was so excited to hear about a place that had one. But the crusting on this sandwich is just to hard. The meat was non existent. One piece of turkey and ham. Then on top of that, it had this weird Herby sauce on the inside. The sandwich is no wear near a true Monte Cristo. The one I used to get was in a batter, like a pancake batter. This was served with strawberry jam, to which I found a hair in. I just put that jam to the side. The French fries were great. But I don't know why Guy from diners, drive in & dives raved about this sandwich.

Tried the Wagyu burgers as a special. Added the second patty for $2.50 more. Look at the picture of my patty…… REALLY ??!!’ This patty is pathetic. Needs Attention. Also tried “The Best Finger Steaks in Boise” ….. they are not even close to the best. They are OK at best. Curly fries were good, service was very good. Do some QA on your burger patties because these need SERIOUS attention.

Absolutely incredible food. The steak tips were to die for. The baked potato was the best baked potato my taste buds have ever experienced, and the ice cream potato?? Otherworldly.

Not only is the food great, but they serve ice-cream shaped like a baked potato! The 50's style dinner has many interesting pictures and reflects Idaho history. There is also a map that people can put a pin in to show where they are from. According to that map, people come from far and wide. To reiterate how great the food is, this place was featured on Guy Fierri's Dinners, Drive-ins, and dives!

Finger steaks were very interesting, I did enjoy them but dont need to have them again for a few months. The ice cream potato was super fun though!

We were very skeptical to visit this restaurant based on recent negative reviews, but we were pleasantly surprised by the wonderful food, large portions, and friendly prompt service. We took a large party in during a busy time and they were quite attentive. The diner is definitely a local place, and it is not a new shiny building, but a cozy local restaurant. We had the Chicken Fried Steak, the breakfast skillet, BLT, and Mickey Mouse pancakes. The food was great, our only comment was that the chicken fried steak/biscuits & gravy were not to our taste, but the food quality was good.

I took my granddaughters here on a Friday. They weren't hungry so they just had hot chocolate with whipped cream. I had the traditional bacon and eggs. It was good. The toast was a little on the burnt side. I was taken by surprise that toast was an additional 2.60. I guess I expected it as standard equipment. Breakfast for me and hot chocolate and a side of bacon for the girls came to just north of 35.00. I had a little sticker shock but I know food costs are up. They serve Boyds coffe which is much better than Farmers brand. Ada said the hot chocolate was good. An 8 out of 10. Hattie says 10 out of 10. I would go again.

Has been my gorgeous to spot for breakfast since I discovered it a couple of months ago. Delicious food and great atmosphere. My daughter likes this place too which is a plus

Great little local restaurant. Stopped by for breakfast and it was really good. Very friendly staff as well.

Cute little spot in Boise! No wait and had indoor/outdoor seating. The gravy was yum, but the biscuit were very dry and kinda hard to chew.

Has that tucked-away, cozy feeling. The staff was very laid back yet efficient. Nothing stuffy about this place. Great coffee, diverse menu and not overpriced.

Addie's is a wonderful spot for breakfast. They have great food, fantastic service, and a welcoming vibe. I am usually there before work, but I keep meaning to go to Addie's on the weekends. Why you ask? Because they have some awesome deals on mimosas :).

Been there today. Very slow, very unprofessional staff. I do understand that they are just humans but they barely got any food at 3pm today, very little of each dish. We paid $65 for 4 people and we didn't even get full. I said that the service was very bad to a worker and he said "how come" and moved along. Very very disappointing. They didn't even give my receipt.

We got two large orders of fried rice (dry but not the end of the world) but the two large orders of chow mein I've been buying for 28 years tasted like it had been cooked in dirty dish water. We live over three hours away and with all the choices, we chose panda express. Wrong choice. The staff was polite, welcoming, quick. No complaints about them. But the noodles were horrid. We threw the order out.
