Incredible Mexican food! Great service and wonderful atmosphere. I'm a south Texas native and girabaldis is muy sabroso!!!

Street tacos, rice, And beans.
Dj M.

I have heard good things about this restaurant, but have never gone there. My wife, daughter, and I decided to try this restaurant and we were not disapointed. Our waiter was Anthony and the service we received from him was outstanding. We got the bottomless salsa and chips. They were incredible. Fresh, crunchy, and the salsa was to die for. My daughter got the three street tacos, al a carte, and said they were delicious. My wife got the two street tacos meal, with rice and beans. She said it was outstanding as well. I had the chicken tortilla soup, and it was delicious. There was a great deal of chicken. It was fresh, and hearty. I would recommend this place to anyone.

Salsa trio with bean dip

Not great food, not bad food. But better than most Mexican restaurants in Treasure Valley. Clean, well appointed dining room. Has a bar but didn't see any TV's to watch sports. Not clearly evident, but maybe. Server was great. He was on top of it. We came early to take advantage of the happy hour, buy one get one free drink. Tasty mango margarita. Would try other cocktails on their menu. Tried a couple of apps. The salsa trio and the guacamole. Chips are ok. Good salsa combo. The mild was ok. The mango was interesting, good, but spicy. The smoked salsa was the best. The guac portion is large, flavorful and yummy. Tried a combo plate to sample two different things, an enchilada and a taco. Ground beef taco was just ok. Store bought, hard shell with no flavor. Nothing special. The chicken enchilada was better. Full of flavorful chicken. Plenty of rice and beans. Mole chicken enchiladas were good. Flavor of the mole was good. Would eat here again.

Virgin mango margarita, blended with tajin on the rim
Dani S.

I have made so many plans to go to Garbaldi's with some of my friends and they never stuck. Today, today our plans to go were going to stick and I was so excited about it! Garbaldi's has been around for a hot minute. It's right down the road from my house and it's been a bummer that it's taken this long for me to come check this joint out. Of course the night before, I stalked their menu online to see what kind of lunch options they had. They offer quite a few things that caught my eye so I needed to make my final lunch decisions when I got there. Everything sounded so good! I met my boss/ friend for lunch today. Walking in, the esthetic of this joint is very clean and simple, not a lot of color. The windows that were decorated were simple and fine lined. I liked the look of this place. The wood, black detailing, pretty light fixtures. Most Mexican joints in have been to are very colorful and vibrant which adds to the experience. So, it was quite unexpected to see such a different esthetic. I appreciate the classic simplicity of this venue. Trey served us today. He got drinks started for us. We worked on our salsa flight while drinks were getting made. My go to is a mango margarita at every Mexican joint I go to. And boy did my drink not disappoint today. That baby was nicely blended, tart and tasty! I love the tajin on the rim of my cup. My drink was beautifully executed! Trey gave me every ounce of that drink that was blended into my cup. It overflowed and I enjoyed every part of it! For lunch I ordered the 2 enchiladas with shredded beef. It also came with a gracious side of beans and a helping of rice. I slapped some sour cream onto the enchilada and it was so good! The shredded beef was so tender and flavorful. The cheese was perfectly melted on top. The enchilada sauce was rich in color and flavor, it enhance the flavors of everything. The rice, where do I begin, Fluffy, flavorful and delicious! I love rice in general but this rice was fantastic! The beans were savory and creamy. My favorite is mixing the rice and beans togther as a bite, so good! I can't believe I could have been coming here for long time and it took until now to stop in. My husband isn't a very adventurous eater so I'm stuck waiting for friends to try different spots. I have been better going out on my own and enjoying different foods. This joint is going to have to be one of them. Just coming by myself, getting another fabulous margarita and a huge plate of delicious Mexican food! I look forward to my left overs for dinner and I look forward to my next visit to Garbaldi's!

Guacamole
Ophelia M.

Recently tried Garibaldis for the first time and it was a bit of a mixed bag. The good: + We were seated right away, the dining room was squeaky clean, and our server was kind + Our appetizers were outstanding. We got their guacamole and queso fundido. The guacamole is fresh, fabulous, and ample. It came with the unique addition of a sprinkling of pomegranate. The queso fundido was all indulgent cheesiness. I loved the addition of chorizo. Their chorizo is pitch perfect. The chips were warm and crispy. + The prices are reasonable. Two in our party of four got cocktails, two got dessert, in addition to two apps and mains all around and our total was $130ish before tip. Amazing! + The Mexican rice that came with my main was flavorful and the perfect texture. The less than ideal: + Three of the four folks in our group were a bit underwhelmed by our main dishes. I got the enchiladas vegetales. The vegetables in the enchiladas were a whole lot of celery, carrots, a bit of onion, and green peppers. It was overall not super well seasoned and just a bit bland. A bit of a bummer on the main dishes but would definitely recommend a stop by for drinks and appetizers (maybe make a meal out of apps?).

Nice salsas. But you have to pay for chips and salsa.
Hmmmmm O.

Food. Salsas were nice and flavorful and guac was ok. Mole was on the sweet side for me and I don't like the hint of cinnamon but that's me. Chile rellano was smothered and I mean smothered in cheese. Way too much cheese the Chile was not the star. The cheese was. Too heavy. and just so so. Service was great. Ambiance was nice. But it's all about the food.

They are charging a fee to use a credit card, but this isn't disclosed anywhere. It's not on the door or menu. You must disclose a fee like this.

Baja Fish Tacos
Judi B.

Beautifully designed building; even the parking lot has fun statues to add to the motif. Lovely building entrance leads you to a classy check-in station, greeted by a smiling host. We were quickly seated as we had reservations for our party if 6 (highly recommend reservations on the weekend-place was packed). Unfortunately for us, we were seated next to a large party with several loud kids, which put a slight damper on our adult night out. Ordered the queso fundido and salsa flight to start. Queso was decadently glutinous, with gobs of cheese and chorizo folded into every bite. Freshly made tortilla chips could stand up to that weight most of the time. Salsas were a huge hit at the tables though the standard salsa was the crowd favorite. Mango / pineapple salsa was spicy but neither savory nor sweet hot, the hot salsa was more spicy than crave worthy. I ordered the Baja fish tacos. Amazing flavor. Fish was flavorful, tender and perfectly cooked. Chipotle mayo was the highlight and a perfect compliment to the slaw, pico and avocado. Two taco plate is more than enough, as those tacos were stuffed full of goodies. Sad part is the menu states tacos come with refried beans and rice. I got black beans and white rice with peas? I'm allergic to black beans so I was irritated that was served differently than advertised (I would have asked for refried or a side salad). I assumed that it was my oversight and luckily they were in their own bowl so there wasn't any cross contamination. The rice isn't your standard Mexican restaurant flair, but a nice twist....just didn't really go with the fish tacos. Flour tortilla didn't seem to be warmed up and rather thin, which took me by surprise, but overall a great fish taco. Husband ordered the beef enchiladas and found them to be bland overall and "just okay". The service overall was pleasant. The busboy who served our waters was the best part...totally service oriented, friendly and wanting to be sure we had enough water and utensils. Server was okay. We felt forgotten a lot as drink refills never came unless we asked for them and my ordered drink was completely forgotten and I had to ask twice. Since the server didn't come by often, it was quite a wait. Our server wasn't attending the large party next to us, so I was hoping for more attentive service. Nice touch that they package leftovers expertly and with much consideration. Would like to visit again, but not my "go to".

Chicken mole  and a whiskey & apple cider cocktail.
Renee M.

Such a beautiful restaurant. I enjoyed the service while sitting at the bar. The bartender was attentive and friendly even during his busy lunch rush. I ordered the chicken mole ( asked for extra creama, which they provided happily). The dish was rich in flavor and had a great sweet and spicy sauce.

I came to Garibaldis two days in a row this week. I love garibaldis, it is my favorite Mexican restaurant in this area. I got the chorizo taco special both days, and they were phenomenal both times. Our servers took great care of us and made sure everything was up to our standards. The restaurant was a comfortable temperature and clean.

Salads trio (front) and Tacos Costeños (back)
Taylor H.

I've had my eye on Garibaldis for a while now and I finally decided to go on New Year's Day. I made a reservation although there wasn't a wait and we were seated immediately. The dining room was very clean, and had an upscale vibe with a bright ambiance that was very inviting. I could see myself having celebrations and birthdays there in the future as they have long tables that can accommodate a large party. The food was the star of the show and I was impressed by the appetizers as well as the entrees. For apps, I ordered the salsa trio with fresh tortilla chips and the bean dip. Both were affordable as well as delicious. For my entree, I ordered the Baja tacos (2) which came with beans and rice and it tasted fresh and light. My boyfriend got the tacos costeños which he was equally impressed with and could taste the quality of the steak. My favorite was the dessert which we got the churros that were presented in a cute churro cart with goat milk caramel and Mexican chocolate. Both the Carmel and the chocolate were decedent and a perfect way to end the meal! Lastly, our waitress Daisy was absolutely amazing and added to the overall experience. She was attentive, knowledgeable about the menu and checked on us frequently. The bill for everything was about $55 (without tip) which isn't bad for an authentic Mexican restaurant with an upscale vibe. Overall, I highly recommend!

It's been a while since he has had their tacos so today for lunch he asked me to grab him some. It's my first time in this joint. Walking in, it's quite loud and fun! It's got music going. Many patrons eating and talking. There are bright colors and banners everywhere. It looks like a fun and vibrant venue to have a good meal at. I ordered at the register. The gal that was helping me gave me basic service. Your average customer service. I grabbed 4 carne asada tacos without onions and cilantro for the husband and the chicken flauta combo meal for myself. I grabbed a table to hang out at while my order was being made. I wanted to grab some salsa to go at the sauce bar. There wasn't any to go cups available so I did ask someone for some. She said she would go grab some for me and never did. My food finally showed up and I had to ask another gal for the to go cups. I finally got my sauces and headed out the door. First glance at the food, I was excited! Everything looked fresh and delicious. The cheese was melty on the tacos. The quac, rice and beans looked good in my to go plate. But looks can be deceiving. Unfortunately, the carne asada was so dry. Dry in texture and just tough. Like the meat has been sitting for a while and they just grabbed the top helping of meat instead of mixing it. We did add a good amount of lime to add some wetness to the taco but it didn't help. Out of 4 tacos, my husband only ate 2. The chicken flautas looked promising. The tortilla was airy and crispy. I wish I can say good things about the chicken. The chicken pieces were too big. You would take a bite and the whole chicken chunk would come out. It was also dry and unflavored. The only thing that slightly helped the flauta was the sour cream and quac. The rice and beans were pretty generic so they were good. I spent 32 bucks on this meal for us to only eat half of. I don't know what happened for my husband to say the tacos were legit a while back to end up ordering this mediocre meal today. So disappointed with every part of my meal. Customer service was ok. So many fantastic Taquerias out there but this joint isn't one of them.

Walking in, this place is so colorful and vibrant! I love the pretty water fountain as soon as you walk in and the pretty art piece that was hanging above it. The whole venue looks like a fiesta so you know you're about to have a great time! We got sat. A sweet gal dropped off a couple waters, chips and salsa. Nothing like starting your afternoon with chips and salsa! Adri came shortly after and grabbed drink orders. I got a virgin mango margarita today. She asked if I wanted the rim salted or tajined. I totally would have but I have to watch my salt intake. Without the salt and tajin, that mango margarita was money! It was so good! It was perfectly blended! It had a good amount of mango to it. It was absolutely delicious! For lunch I got a shredded beef taco and shredded beef enchilada for lunch. It also came out with a side of rice and beans. The plate looked fabulous! I appreciate the peas and carrots in the rice! It added another texture to it. The rice and beans were nice and hot! Super tasty! The beef in my enchilada was tenders and flavorful. The sauce was rich in color and flavor. I like that there was a slight heat to everything. It wasn't overwhelming. I didn't get a chance to eat much of the taco. I did take a bite and it was good! I do wish that the tortilla didn't get all soggy. One side of the taco was great but the other was drenched in fluid. I also did find hard pieces of rice in the side of rice i got. Kind like it's been sitting too long and it dried out. It wasn't the best the chew. I'm happy I got to try this joint out today! Adri was fantastic and did a great job taking care of us! My margarita was top notch! The food was good and the venue was so much fun. Looking forward to coming back and trying other goodies of their menu with another bomb ass margarita!

I indulged myself with their popular Chicken Chipotle Tacos ($10.99) or as I call them, crack tacos because they're so freaking addicting I could eat them every day. Three beautifully fluffy flour tortillas piled with their wonderfully seasoned namesake chicken, fresh pico, lettuce and cheese, drizzled with their insanely good chipotle dressing that is to die for. God, these are straight from heaven. Every bite is an explosion of flavor. I want to try their other dishes, but each time I step into this establishment my mouth starts to water at the thought of these. You've gotta try them to know what I mean! My husband has his go-to as well, and it's equally as delish - the Three Piece Leg & Thigh which comes with two sides. This round he chose Mac & Cheese and Mexican Rice. Okay yeah, the chicken is extremely tasteful as always and the rice was cooked to perfection, but holy cannoli that Mac & Cheese was outta this dang world. The noods were so soft they melted in your mouth. I'm guessing they add cream cheese or something of the sort because it was comfort food to a whole other level! Not to mention, the scoop was insanely big. entire platter posted with this review was only $9.99. It's hard to find such great food for reasonable prices in Boise. This almost seems too good to be true. The woman who took our order is the same who has done so previous times, maybe the owner? She's really sweet and patient. She always thanks patrons as they walk out. I'm already fantasizing about my next visit to Fiesta Chicken. Will I branch out or succumb to my needless desire for those tacos?
