“I went with my friend for Happy Hour! The margarita I had was excellent! Well balanced flavor! I also had the meatballs as an appetizer. They were perfectly spicy, held together perfectly, size was perfect too! (Yes it does deserve to have 3 “perfect” descriptions). I can’t remember the name of the salad I had, but I told many people that it had a White Balsamic Dressing, it was light and bright, veggies were cool and crispy. I can’t wait to go back! 10/10 will have again!“

“my partner and i like to think we can handle our liquor. we were in the mood for an easy-going night because we had a long drive the next day and the cat was in the yurt, but much to our surprise, we found no such thing here. akin to one of my reoccurring hallucinations, i picked up a payphone to dial the establishment for entry. after making the call to enter, a door hidden in the mirror wall opened and we were invited in. we were seated at a nook next to the out-of-use fireplace with large, white candles - possibly fake. having said that, i'm no stranger to mystery or delight, so i was well-conditioned to handle things. but, i did say that we were in search of something easy-going. there are tricks here. glow-in-the-dark trinkets given to illuminate secret concoctions also available from the menu. and the bathroom is stocked with mint chocolates, fortune cookies and mint-flavored life savers. if i remember correctly, we both ingested two drinks each. and yes, of course, traded sips of each other's selections. as luck would have it, all four drinks were very enjoyable and to our satisfaction, or exceeded expectations. one was full of eggs, pistachios and olive oil - enchanting! the human who saw to our delights was also our age.“

“Brunch here is my favorite in Boise. The Duck and waffles is the best combo of sweet and savory. Their mimosa service is fun and delicious: tasty bottle of cava tableside with fresh squeezed OJ“

“Best drinks (including NA and low abv), best service, best food, good times, great people!“

“Erik was the best! We had an amazing night!“

“Exquisite experience! From the minute you step in until you part, it is a feast for the soul! Simply said, KIN is an Epicurean Delight! Yes, I recommend KIN!“

“Came here for happy hour. The bartender was so helpful and the old fashioned was delicious. We drank in the atrium, which was a lovely vibe for the time of day. There is tons of seating inside and out. We didn’t have the poutine but it sounded delicious! Would certainly come here again!“

“I came for a Babz Production, and the cocktails are impeccable. The Meat and Cheese board was so delicious. The show was so great!! I will definitely be visiting Ochos more often!“

“The Mode is a bar located in downtown Boise, Idaho. The have various drink options, and they are surrounded by other bars, clubs, and restaurants. Indoor and outdoor seating are available, as well as restrooms, and the interior was very nicely decorated. The staff were very helpful. We entered and were told we could choose our seating, then were provided with drink menus. We sat, reviewed the menus and had an employee come to us to take our order. They had unique options, such as my fiance's order of a Japanese Lager, as well as various wines, and more common options of an amaretto sour. When I asked about a couple of the wine options, the server actually provided me with three different shot glasses of wine to sample before I decided on a full glass. The Lager was not my preference, but my fiance seemed to like it, and my friend's amaretto sour was delicious! My wine was also quite good. We sat outdoors and, overall, had a lovely patio experience.“

“Freshies is amazing! The lobster is always fresh and cooked perfectly.“

“I thoroughly enjoyed my first visit to Percy yesterday when a friend and I, with our two dogs in tow stopped in for an early dinner on the patio. Having reserved an outdoor table, the staff was so wonderfully accommodating of our pets and us, seating us where we could easily keep our distance from another table in the event other dogs were present. The hostess immediately brought a water bowl for the pups, which was really appreciated. Our waiter, Tristen was attentive, friendly and offered useful guidance with the many choices on the menu. We ordered the braised short ribs dinner and the ahi tuna. Both were excellent and I'm looking forward to next time to try another yummy dish! The prices are pretty steep, particularly for the wine so prepare for some expense, but for an early evening's dinner in an outdoor setting, I can't think of another patio that's nicer. The Percy's faces north, so the building shades the whole patio and 4th is a fairly quiet street thus conversations weren't ever interrupted by traffic noises.“

“The food is very good. We have tried pizza and salads and both were fresh and very tastey. The on-line ordering is horrible. Yesterday we placed a to go order at 3 pm and was told that it would not be ready to pick up until 7 pm, 4 hours later. That is not unusual and sometimes they stop on-line ordering several hours before closing. They either need more ovens, a better system or discontinue take out orders because on-line ordering for take out is very frustrating and annoying.“

“The food and overall atmosphere was great for Sunday brunch, but apparently they employ a DJ to play music on Sundays during brunch which is so loud, it was extremely difficult to carry on a conversation let alone enjoy your meal. My ears are still ringing. My friend and I weren’t the only people in the restaurant requesting the volume to be decreased. Brunch should be a relaxing atmosphere, not feeling like you are at a night club….“

“a great pup and differentiated service“

“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.“

“First time visiting the restaurant this week. We ordered a filet mignon dinner and a lamb shank dinner—both were delicious! The steak was cooked to perfection. Croquettes and big salad both so good!“

“Happy valentines day baby!!“

“Absolutely love it here! The waiters/waitresses are always kind and on top of it all.“

“Celebrating my mom's 70th birthday surrounded by family today was truly special. Instead of cooking, we chose to support a local caterer so we went with Goodwood and it was an excellent choice!

From our initial inquiry to the delivery, their service was top-notch. We indulged in: Spinach artichoke dip for an appetizer, Smoked prime rib and sweet chicken. Smashed potatoes with gravy, Caesar salad, and buttery rolls

Reasonably priced and more than enough food for our family gathering! Big thanks to Goodwood BBQ for helping us create beautiful memoriesl“

“Came out two evenings just recently and both times the specialty crafted drinks were divine, the bartenders are fun and friendly, and the burger and fries I ordered from the food truck were yummy! I always recommend this place to my friends.“

“Loved everything about our stay. ❤️“

“Stopped in with a couple friends last night and we were immediately greeted by the bartender.

There were not many people here when we first walked in, but it filled up as the night went on. I liked the light or lack of lighting. It was darker, but perfect for a cocktail and conversation.

The bartenders were friendly and attentive. I had a few Dark Side cocktails and one my friends ordered a few Old Fashion's and my other friend had a drink called The Hot One.

I loved that they had something other than sports on the TV's and chill vibe music playing.“

“Awesome drinks and ambiance! Friendly staff“

“I absolutely love Free Spirit Brewing Company! It's wonderful to have a non-alcoholic environment where I can enjoy delicious cocktails without compromising on taste or experience. The staff's knowledge and passion truly enhance every visit. I can’t wait to try their new location! Highly recommended for anyone seeking great drinks in a welcoming atmosphere.“

“We had a really nice lunch today. We tried three appetizers. Two were huge! The fish and chips was just a bit on the salty side....but overall very good. Oh and the Espresso Torte is a MUST.“

“They have great drinks! One of their bartenders, Anthony, makes the best bloody Mary, this side of the Mississippi! The atmosphere is chill, and the service is on point!“

“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!“

“food, service, speed, atmosphere, all of it“

“It was our second visit. Once again, the service was great. Thank You Alyssa! Chicken tortilla soup was good. Steak fajitas were great! Atmosphere brings a sense of craftsmanship with stained glass lighting fixtures and intricate iron work. We will be back every time we are in town:)“

“Great place 🤩🤩 Love their food 😋😋“

“Wild root is just about my favorite place in town. I love the originality of the menu. There's always something I'm interested in. And I love how it rotates with the seasons. I had the lettuce wraps, which were amazing. Our waitress was absolutely phenomenal and sweet.“

“This isn’t a sports bar. BBQ brisket“

“You have the patience of angels! Happy first day of school 2022! My tacos, as always, were great!“

“I will miss my Friday's after work when the Capitol Bar is calling my name“

“They have great drinks! One of their bartenders, Anthony, makes the best bloody Mary, this side of the Mississippi! The atmosphere is chill, and the service is on point!“

“I have to give Dylan credit amazing server in a lot of fun. We had some strange cheese appetizer that I would’ve literally thousand pieces of if I could get away with it. My main course was fettuccine Alfredo with chicken. I find myself eating a lot of the bread too. Lol please please please very great option for lunch. Affordable how are you my company? Enjoy the side salad with soup and I really had to tell you, you should order the nitro cold brew with cream if you need to wake yourself up. Again, compliments to the service, and the amazing layout of this restaurant I’ve been away from Boise for 15 years, in a very pleased to see some of the new additions as well as an eagle Cheers! Thanks again !“

“Honestly super good bar with great vibes, not over packed but good enough amount of people to make it a good time. Reasonable priced drinks and the bartenders are super sweet and nice ! I don’t know how this is my first time coming here after many years of going dt but definitely coming back because of how great the atmosphere is !“

“Great place to go if you want to be dressed up and have great drinks and atmosphere!“

“We had such a great experience here! The place has a great, open floor plan that feels inviting. Everyone was very friendly and attentive. I'm recently sober, and was delighted with the mocktail options!! The crimson cooler was delightful! We shared the burrata and it was decadent! I had the Bucatini Carbonara and it was fantastic, with plenty left over to enjoy again at home! Definitely adding this place to my go-to list!“

“Absolutely love the vibes but would really like more sober drink choices. I tried to order a sprite, 7up or something light and they didn’t have anything for me but tonic or soda water. For the prices of drinks more options would be lovely.“

“We had a great dinner at Harvey’s! My boyfriend’s parents live in BanBury and we have never seen it so packed on a Friday night. There were a lot of new staff training and they handled it exceptionally. Our food was wonderful, I can’t complain about a single thing. We are picky drinkers and they accommodated every request. Shoutout to our server (I wish I remembered her name but she was cute and had dark dark hair) and shoutout to the chef for getting all of our orders out correctly and tasting fantastic. 10/10 tonight guys ✌️“

“El Gallo Giro has been a work lunch locale for years now. all the best people go :) Our family loves the food and atmosphere. It's our special taco place!“

“Food and service was fantastic, atmosphere was a bit loud. Portions and quality of food was on point with the food being very tasty. I recommend their steak! It was seasoned perfectly and cooked to my preference. Kudos to the chef that day!“

“This was our first time and we are already looking forward to coming. Great drinks, good people, awesome bar tender and a small town vibe!“

“Our wedding reception at The Lively Boise was an absolute dream come true. From the moment we stepped through the doors, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality that set the tone for a perfect lunch. The ambiance of the restaurant was elegant yet inviting. The Staff at The Lively were attentive and professional, ensuring that every detail was meticulously taken care of. The food was simply exquisite. From the hors d'oeuvres to the main course and desserts, each dish was expertly prepared and presented with flair by Executive Chef Edward Higgins. Our guests raved about the quality and taste, and many commented that it was some of the best food they've had at a wedding. What impressed us most was the personalized service we received. The team at The Lively, specially the Director of Event Sales Missy Goode from the moment we first inquired until our wedding day, Missy has been nothing short of exceptional. Her dedication to ensuring our wedding day was extra special was truly amazing. Missy's top-notch professionalism and unwavering support made a significant difference throughout the planning process. I highly recommend The Lively Boise, especially thanks to Missy's invaluable assistance. The server who assisted us that day, Grace, was incredibly helpful, accommodating, and reassuring. She ensured that every aspect of our experience, from food to drinks, was of the highest standard. Her attention to detail and friendly demeanor truly made our day unforgettable. Grace's exceptional service was nothing short of wonderful. Overall, our experience at The Lively Boise exceeded our expectations in every way. It was more than just a meal—it was an unforgettable dining experience that added to the magic of our wedding day. We are immensely grateful to the entire team at The Lively Boise for their dedication and expertise in making our celebration truly exceptional. We would highly recommend The Lively Boise to anyone looking for a venue that offers outstanding cuisine, impeccable service, and a memorable atmosphere for their special day.“

“Here’s a polished review you could use for Diablo and Sons: Review for Diablo & Sons We had a fantastic experience at Diablo and Sons! The customer service was top-notch—Jess, the manager, was incredibly attentive and welcoming, and Jill, our new server, did a wonderful job making sure we were taken care of. There were a few minor delays, but that’s to be expected on a beautiful Saturday evening out on the patio. The atmosphere made up for it, and the drinks were absolutely on point. We tried the Bloody Mary, a couple of Hemingways, margaritas, and the Dusty Trail—all were excellent and expertly crafted. For dinner, we went with the spicy chicken sandwiches, fish and chips, and skirt steak tacos. Every dish was flavorful and well-prepared. The spicy chicken had the perfect kick, and the tacos were a definite standout. Looking forward to our next visit already! Highly recommend for a relaxed vibe, great drinks, and excellent service.“
