17 Best Asian Fusion Restaurants near Boise

“One of favorite places too dine. Sorry no pics. Never think of it until too late. I had the Pho with short ribs. First time ordering. I usually try something different each time. The short rib melted in your mouth. It is a fusion Asian establishment so aside from sounding contradictory, it isn’t what I would consider authentic Pho. If you don’t smell like pho for a day or two, than I consider it American friendly. 🤓. It was still delicious and fresh ingredients. My wife has her staple Kao Sao (so?). Very tasty. The fresh rolls were also extremely fresh. Toffey (sp?) our hostess was awesome. She spent time with us discussing the menu and the chefs talents which we know first hand. Emily, our waitress was attentive and prompt and provided excellent service. We have never had a bad meal or service here.“

“I don't live in Idaho only visit. I come here every time and it's always a phenomenal experience. I love Cupbop no other place compares to the taste, the joy, the love I feel eating this food. I regret not having a large enough belly to eat more and more. Please expand to more locations!! I need you closer to Washington/California!!“

“If I could give them 500 stars, I would! We went around to different Mongolian restaurants trying to find a really good one, and this one wins! For YEARS we keep going here and are never disappointed. We moved away for 5 years and the biggest thing we missed was this restaurant. When we moved back it was the first place we went for dinner. The employees are so sweet and friendly. 100% recommend.“

“Delicious and original menu items. Friendly owner and staff. Great atmosphere with indoor/outdoor dining and even a walk-up window. The Funky Taco is setting the bar for downtown eateries. It's a destination.“

“Nice place popular with postmates. Good service. Near campus.“

“Happy Teriyaki ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ On 1/25/23, I had to work late and stopped at Happy Teriyaki on Federal Way in Boise for take-out. This was my first time visiting this business. I was a bit skeptical because I knew it was a franchise with 10 Idaho locations, but it was on my way back to the office and I always like to try new things.  I was pleasantly surprised. I ordered the Happy Noodles with Chicken ($12.95), which is Chicken on a bed of Yakisoba Noodles. Other protein options are beef or pork. I was drawn to this dish because Yakisoba isn’t on many menus in  Idaho. In fact, the first time I ever had it was before it was on any local menus, and I had to make it myself from scratch.  The service was excellenot. My order came out fast. It was steaming hot and I could tell from the heft of the bag that it was generously portioned. It made two meals for me. I like that it had a large portion of chicken. The noodles were deliciously, seasoned and perfectly cooked. This is my kind of “fast food.” My five star review is based solely on this dish because it’s the only one I’ve tried. It was excellent! And it’s the best Yakisoba I’ve had in Boise to date. Highly Recommended!!!“

“was really good. 1st time having it I will be back“

“Ate at the Rice Work July 9th. Ordered the teriyaki, veggies with rice. The rice was way over cooked and the veggies consisted of all broccoli and was under cooked. Chicken was so so. Would rate this meal just above garbage.“

“Place could be cleaner, but when you have a couple workers working it is understandable. My family of 6 came in and my grandmother and I were helped by this guy with longer hair. He did a good job and was decent on speed. Actually gave me a discount on Mando which was super nice of him. My mother, stepfather, and kids were helped by Curtis. And that guy was on top of it. Super friendly, I even went to go interrupt my mom’s order so I can get more sauce for my Mando. Without a hesitation or sigh he got it right for me SUPER fast. Then I did a Togo order as I was about to go for my pregnant girlfriend, it took Curtis no longer than maybe a minute from the time I ordered to check out. He was phenomenal and super nice. This is maybe my 3rd time ever eating Cupbop and he did amazing. Keep going with the hard work Curtis, your hard work is not taken for granted!“

“I haven’t been to Happy Teriyaki since covid and they did NOT disappoint. It’s always been a bit pricey but for good reason, their food is fresh and absolutely delicious. The spicy chicken is SO flavorful and the perfect amount of spice. The crew in the kitchen is wonderful and Sung, the woman who helped me up front was very sweet. Gonna have to come back to try the Dole whip!!“

“One of the better Asian restaurants in the Treasure Valley. My wife and I went on Christmas; had been there a couple times before. The place was packed. We had a reservation; no wait. Service was terrific; enjoyed the potstickers, chicken rice soup, chicken kung pao, chicken teriyaki; bread pudding for dessert. It was a genuinely enjoyable holiday dinner (2-4pm). The food items were well paced and the two hours flew by quickly. Very reasonably priced, especially for a major holiday. We can't comment on alcoholic beverages as we don't drink.“

“i don’t really leave reviews like ever but i wanted to appreciate the service i was given today by a kind and patient young lady named Aaliyah tonight, she was alone when i came in for my order but handled everything so well and really did her thing (: (by the way i ordered an all cheese k-dog & a veggie bop bowl thing) the lobby was very clean, i didn’t wait too long for my order and she was super chill and does well under stress. food 10/10 costumer service 10/10 this was actually my only good experience out of the few times i have come here this year. (give her a raise, she carries ^_~)“

“Update ** We’ve come back to visit twice since opening and the food is just as delicious! However, the protein portions are embarrassingly small. My review would drop to 3 stars if not for the high quality which I feel like bumps it to 4 starts. We got the burrito one of the times for my kids and there were about 2 tablespoons of the shredded pork and the edges of the tortilla were rock hard. I’m also disappointed about the upcharge for yakisoba noodle base because it bumps up the bowls into sit-down restaurant pricing. It was about $45 for 3 dishes which is too steep for a fast casual restaurant in my opinion, especially with small protein portions. If price isn’t as big of a concern then I still recommend this place because you can tell how fresh everything is! And I still
love the green curry sauce!**

Original review:
I can’t wait to make this a regular stop. It’s the healthy / chipotle version of Panda and I’m here for it!!! I’ve tried both the sesame and green curry sauces and they were great. Love all the fresh veggie options. The guacamole is good quality. Also who knew corn was good on an Asian bowl? Don’t knock it til you try it. The protein portion is hit or miss depending on who’s behind the counter is my only constructive criticism. I also don’t recommend the burrito Zao’s way (with the rice noodles - too wet) instead opt for rice as the base. The workers were all so friendly!“
