New American Restaurants near Garden City, ID

“Great bands! Great food and drinks! Plenty of dance floor and tables.“

“This place is one of a kind! Come early and get some food because they have quite the unique menu. It’s not a huge selection but what they do make is very good. Apparently the menu changes occasionally as well, so just expect the unexpected. Overall the vibe and ambiance of this place is super cool and worth the visit!“

“The Local ⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Local in Boise is “a neighborhood Eatery and Wine Pub, offering live music and rotating artists.” They also have a dog, friendly patio and a Dog menu. MW and I visited during Happy Hour, which is Monday through Friday from 3 PM to 5 PM. We ordered a mix of items off of the happy hour menu and the regular menu. We started with Hurricane Popcorn - A Hawaiian favorite - with Nori Furikaki and Japanese rice crackers. It was very flavorful and unlike any popcorn I’ve ever had before. This is a unique menu items The Local is known for. We ordered two side Caesar salads. I like that it had homemade croutons, but it needed a little more more dressing.  We shared an order of Carnitas Street Tacos, to which we added 1 extra taco. The pork was tender, but the tacos were pretty bland. We shared an order of Smash Sliders - 3 smash burgers using our own custom burger blend from Porterhouse in Eagle, with classic American cheese. They were tasty. Unfortunately, I forgot to get a photo! We shared two desserts: Berry Crisp - Blackberry cobbler topped with vanilla ice cream. The berry crisp was excellent! Crème Brûlée - Simple and delicious vanilla crème brulee. The crème brûlée was good, but not great. The texture wasn’t as creamy as it should’ve been. We visited early on a weekday, so we didn’t get to hear any live music, but we pretty much had the place to ourselves until towards the end of our visit. Overall, the food was good, but not great. However, they do have a bigger menu than most wine bars and they allow dogs on the patio. The Dog Menu looks excellent! The Local has a nice Wine Menu, as well as several local beers on tap. If you’re looking for a nice wine bar with a neighborhood pub vibe, The Local is worth considering. I would like to return and try their Pepe’s Famous Fish Tacos. The pictures of their flatbread look excellent too. * The Local is wheelchair accessible. Recommended!“

“Great place for a date night, we went to celebrate our anniversary which happens to be a couple of days before Valentine’s Day. We choose Crave as a suggestion from friends Ana family and because it had the red romantic vibe (we thought). The lights outside weren’t red like the photo, they’re blue, I think maybe they alternate colors? We ordered a couple of drinks, spinach & artichoke dip, short rib dumplings, oysters on a half shell, lobster crab roll, Thai steak and noodles. Everything was good, except the dumplings which were a bit doughy for my taste. Overall I can see why this is such a popular Eagle restaurant. They’re good for a lot of different occasions.“

“Fun, large restaurants with lots of seating. Lively atmosphere & the wait staff is great & fast service too! I ordered the Turkey Club & it was a huge portion & very tasty! Went back the next day & ordered the same thing!“

“We just hosted our kids’ baby shower in the bar and on the patio. It was delightful!! Erika, the community relations manager helped us make the day very special! The food and drinks were just right and the staff was great. The location could not have been better. Highly recommend!!“

“Fantastic service, location, preparation menu, and valet parking“

“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!“

“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“

“Service and food were fantastic. Jessica and Kyle were amazing. The checked often to see if we needed anything and if everything was as we wanted it. The chef is amazing. The salmon and cod were perfectly cooked.“

“sitting outside on the patio for dinner with the pups. Dec 26th! amazing people! Great food! highly recommend!“

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

“this place is a drive-in and I feel like you get a $20 burger for 10 bucks especially if you hit it on a deal day the double patty burger was phenomenal and the bun was to die for everything was hot and fresh and I would 10 out of 10 eat here again. I preferred the french fries to the tater tots and the onion rings were also delicious one of our party got the chicken sandwich and said it was just as good as the burger if you’re looking for a restaurant style burger at a drive-through price this place is it it takes a little while, but you know your food is fresh“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Best Landing Ever — 10/10 Would Fall Again” So there I was, minding my own business, enjoying the in-flight peanuts at 35,000 feet, when gravity decided to spice things up. One wrong step, and boom — I’m free-falling like a majestic bowling ball with commitment issues. No parachute, no plan, just pure aerodynamic panic. As I plummeted through the clouds, I saw my life flash before my eyes — mostly memories of me saying, “It’s fine, I’ve got this.” Spoiler alert: I did not got this. Then fate intervened. Out of all the places on Earth, I crash-landed right through the roof of Houston Hot Chicken like a meteor made of confusion and regret. I didn’t so much land as I reintroduced myself to the concept of gravity. Tables flipped, fries flew, and someone screamed, “Bro just DoorDashed himself!” The employees, absolute legends, didn’t even flinch. One handed me a napkin, another asked, “You want that mild or extra hot?” My spine said mild, but my soul said let’s make it worth it. I left that restaurant smelling like jet fuel and Nashville seasoning, but with a heart full of gratitude and a stomach full of dangerously good chicken. Final verdict: Service — 10/10 (They didn’t call an ambulance until I finished eating.) Atmosphere — explosive. Food — so hot it resurrected me. Would recommend? Only if you enjoy defying physics and good flavor. 🔥🍗 “Houston Hot Chicken — where the food slaps harder than the landing.”“

“I eat here often as its close to my house and serves great food late into the night. Tonight Nicole was my server and she did a great job. Very personal and attentive she got everything right food comes out faster than you think it would and she checked up on me often making sure my dinks were filled and I was satisfied. Great server, great service and atmosphere is good too. The staff always takes great care of me and I apricate them and the effort. Did I mention the food is great too?“

“Always a comfortable bar, welcoming staff, great food, relaxed atmosphere, all around wonderful experience.“

“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 !“

“Yummy breakfast. Met for our Women in Aviation International breakfast meeting. Definitely coming back!“

“My family, 7 people, had a wonderful experience at Le Peep. I made a reservation ahead of time. and when we arrived they seated us immediately even though they were very busy. Amy was our server and she was very nice and patient with us. The food was served quickly. Everything was delicious and they serve plenty of food. I/we will return to Le Peep very soon. :-)“

“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.“

“Our waiter Tyler was awesome!! Thanks for making it a great date night ..“

“Hands down one of my favorite spots in Boise Idaho! The atmosphere is always inviting, with friendly staff and delicious food to match. I can't get enough of their daily soups, made daily from scratch and full of flavor. And if you're looking for a Sunday hangout, their brunch with mimosas is the perfect way to kick off the day, especially before catching some Sunday football on their big screens. Highly recommend for a great time any day of the week!“

“I had been waiting over 5 minutes to place an order. Another person stepped up b next to me and was served immediately. Terrible service!“
