Love this place tucked away in Boise. Gluten free menu (just ask and they'll bring it to you) and very helpful with selections. Been here several times and they are always friendly and always helpful. Food is consistently delicious. It's out of the way but worth it. Dog friendly patio and they even brought our pup water.
