Ordered the moon babies it was delicious. Love their honey lavender espresso coffee. The service was good.

Server Lizzie was amazing! Her upbeat positive energy was infectious and absolutely made my day! Food was amazing as well! There in house jam was delicious! Definitely will be back! read more

Bland and overpriced. The experience and Americana/diner decor were fine, but ultimately the experience was lacking, and is way too much money compared to other better diner style brunch around town. read more

Had a nice breakfast at Moon's while visiting my son in Boise. Very busy but only waited 2 minutes. The server was very friendly and attentive. We had beignets to start and FRESH orange juice both of which were excellent. Then huevos rancheros and eggs Benedict (original version as they have many variations). Huevos was very good and fresh and they were happy to leave out green peppers and potatoes. It's hard to find good huevos rancheros in some parts of the country, but I was impressed. Benedict was good, but nothing particularly outstanding. Atmosphere was casual and on the louder side, which was fine for us, but maybe not for elderly. Seemed like lots of locals, college students and families. Overall a great breakfast and I would say 4.5/5. read more

Brought our family who was visiting from out of town last week. Every single thing about our visit was absolutely perfect. Our waitress was friendly, attentive and efficient and the food was (as always) delicious. This was the first time I had tried the beignets and OH MY GOODNESS! They are divine!!! I also love their new location and the additional seating. read more

Love the decor, food and service was excellent! Would definitely recommend this cafe.

we go to Moon's several times a month. Moon's has great food and a vety very good staff. I like the Salmon Omelette and the Huevos Rancheros! read more

Never had a bad meal here! My husband is a burger connoisseur and says theirs is the best he's had in the valley. He's also enjoyed their stuffed French Toast! I go for either the classic or the salmon eggs Benedict and they're always so delicious! The owner makes the hollendaise from scratch and you can definitely tell. We also always get the beignets to start and of course they're excellent, too. The servers are always coming by even though they have a bunch of other tables! And the new location on the upper floor is much larger, has great views, and a cool atmosphere. read more

Looking for a breakfast place, look no further. This is the place. I like to be comfortable when I have breakfast, somewhere I don't have to move my chair because the place is too small. Where the food is warm, fast and absolutely tasty. Came in and ordered the best beignets--so great I could do that and coffee and be satisfied. I ordered my go to, chicken fried steak, eggs, hash brown meal. OMG! Ok, there are hash browns, and then there are the ones that you imagine--the perfect ones, soft inside and crunchy outside!! Yum yum yum. Service great--and the music is perfect. Go, you will not be disappointed. Will come back and try the lunch. Large portion sizes, coffee bar and comfortable seating. read more

If you love homey breakfast places, come here! This place gives me positive vintage vibes with limitless possibilities! The homemade beignets are a must have! So glad the waitress asked me if I wanted to try them! They are light, crispy, fluffy, and not too oily. The honey butter on the side compliments the tasty little treats so well! All the compotes are amazing! The moon babies were amazing, especially with the raspberry compote! I was not a fan of the hollandaise sauce but everyone I was with was! I felt it to be too rich for me. Only thing I didn't like is I felt really unhealthy after eating here haha. Maybe that was my fault though. Read the signs on the wall, they'll make you laugh :) read more

Great food! The only downside is it's a little noisy but the food and service were wonderful!

This place was definitely top notch for staff friendliness, food and atmosphere. Staff were helpful with choosing the right meal for breakfast. They also hand squeezed us orange juice right there on the spot and they're French beignets were the best I've ever had. Decor was amazing too! Worth the stop in downtown Boise! read more

Went to Boise on a quick little family vacation. Our family loved this cool fun little breakfast joint. The staff was all extremely friendly with our children ages 5 & 2. The food was amazing! My wife made us come back each day. The best part by far was our server Adrianna. She went above and beyond for my wife and especially our kids. She alone is the reason we will continue to come back. I bartend myself, and could tell I would love to work with her as a server in general. She touched our hearts and the food was incredible, so anytime we are in Boise we will be sure to stop by. Thank you again for the great food and even better service! read more

This place is cute and has decent food and super friendly service. Here's the pros and cons: PROS: * friendly service * nice atmosphere/decor * fun music * above average food taste for a diner * Prices were a tad high for a diner, but more affordable than other places around downtown. CONS: * a really loud buzzing sound (the music covers it up), but wow is it loud and annoying... maybe a fan, or light fixture, heating or something in the kitchen? .... you should have that looked into * the silverware was probably the cheapest you could possibly buy... very flimsy and old. It's time to upgrade your silverware! I also had a bit of a residue on the knifes on two separate wraps of silverware. I had the John Wayne with 2 eggs over easy, crispy bacon and the red potatoes which was pretty tasty. This place has potential for a 5 if they upgrade their flatware and get rid of that buzzing. read more

Stopped in while visiting family in Boise. Waited about 20 minutes for a party of five to be seated on a Sunday. Our server was on point & we snacked on beignet while ordering our breakfast. It's been ages since I've had a Monte Cristo & the kitchen did not disappoint! Other items ordered were Moon Babies, Garden omelette, & the salmon eggs Benedict. Lively atmosphere, friendly diners, great front & back of house staff! read more

If anyone is walking by the boarded up exterior of the tiny hole in the wall Moon's Kitchen Cafe, do not be discouraged by the appearance. Moon's is hands down, one of the best breakfast restaurants in Boise. Period. From the ever attentive servers, laid back country charm, and some of the best likes shakes around, that would be reason enough to dine here. But, there is so much more. Here are some of the things that make this a five star spot: the homemade English muffins, homemade Hollandaise sauce, house made warm beignets, stunningly perfect drip coffee, orange juice that is squeezed fresh as it is ordered, the best red potatoes anywhere, fresh cut fruit, and the great variety of delights on the extensive menu. Give Moon's a try. You will not be disappointed. Note that as of this writing, they are not open on Tuesday or Wednesday, and close at 2PM. read more

Fantastic ambiance and just a ton of delicious options. I was delighted to see so many gluten-free items. And the service was absolutely top-notch. Such a fun area of Boise. I made sure to show my out of town guess the very nearby freak Alley. read more

I came here on a recommendation from a fellow traveler and was NOT disappointed. I ordered the 2 pigs in a Ben with a side of the sausage gravy bc it sounded too good to turn down but I didn't want the biscuits and gravy. It was all delicious. The ham was slightly sweet, the sausage had good flavor and the bacon was thick cut. Can't go wrong with a Benedict but this is was really tasty. I also loved the red potatoes with peppers and onions. I would return again when I have the chance. Side note but important: the service was 10 it felt like they wanted me to be there. Such a nice feeling. read more

Food is quite good . above ordinary. Service was ok acceptable. Nice atmosphere. My opinion is its over priced. But seems to work for them. Not a place to eat everyday. But great for special occasions or out of town guests. Breakfast averages $20 per plate and similar for a sandwich. I would expect these prices in New York. But Boise? But in all fairness this is a special place and people seem to enjoy it. read more

Our first time and the food and service were five star. Raychel took great care of us. The only thing keeping my review from being five stars was the manager coming out to the front counter to reprimand the hostess for greeting the customers across the small dining room. Please don't correct your staff in hearing or view of your customers. read more

This has become our breakfast place at least once a week. Absolutely love the people that work here as they are always smiling and so friendly The food is always good and the fancy coffees are to die for. I ordered the Betty Davis Coffee that had white chocolate & almond roca flavoring in it. If you haven't been to Moons Cafe then add it to your list to try. read more

Must come again. The food was exceptional, both of us loved our breakfast. The lemon curd was perfectly shower text me, wrapped in the pancake creep give it a really nice consistency and raspberry on the top was additional icing on the cake. I would definitely order the crepes again! The French toast was stuffed with the lemon curd creme and were tart but sweet. Both meals were not overly sweet, just perfect! The service was exceptional. Waters refilled quickly, food came out quickly, check was quick. 10/10 will come again read more

Moon's Kitchen Cafe - #BeSTBReAKFASTiNBOiSe We were in town for a wedding hands-down one of best breakfast places in town. Service was AMAZING - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Boise, Idaho

Oh my my! We came in hungry for breakfast and they do not disappoint! The portions are HUGE! They have eggs with so many goodies added. Mine had cajon chicken and it was delicious. The flavors were so good together. There is a large variety of pancakes, eggs and sweets like fresh beignets. They have hash browns, toasts and fruit and a selection of coffees and milk shakes! The vibe of the place is casual with lots of locals grabbing a bite to eat. Kiddos to the friendly wait staff. Justice, our server kept my coffee cup full :) read more

BEST BENEDICT IVE EVER HAD. THE CHORIZO and pico. they weren't lying when they said best benedict around. 10/10. The vibes are great too! Very old school and homey. read more

For June's father/daughter breakfast we visited Moon's Kitchen Cafe on a Saturday morning. It was well worth it. The Beignets are a great starter with your latte or tea but make sure you include the homemade jam to go with it. Yummy in your tummy so to speak. We followed that with some huevos rancheros and California Benedict eggs. Great flavor and taste to all the dishes. The California Benedict is a wonderful option to having a lite version of the typical eggs benedict plate. Only possible improvement would be to leave the eggs a little runny in order to smear them over the muffins. Wrapping up the terrific meal was being waited on by Taeler who is the happiest and most cheerful waitress I have had the pleasure of meeting in a long time! Overall Moon's Cafe is at or near the top of our breakfast adventure places visited this year. Give them a visit but please make sure not to take my spot on the counter!!! read more

If you're looking for a great breakfast/brunch spot in downtown Boise, look no further than Moon's Kitchen Cafe! We followed yelp reviews to try this spot and we were not let down. The inside is so cute and full of vintage decor with an open kitchen style to show how fresh everything is. We started with the beignets, which were very delicious though not quite as airy as ones we've had elsewhere - nonetheless, we finished them all. While so much looked amazing on the menu, including the "moon babies" that looked very tempting, we tried some savory options. I got the Chicken Fajita Hash, which was SO good and an absolutely humongous portion of food. The flavor of this dish was immaculate and the Cajun chicken inside the hash was the star. Our server was so friendly and very attentive to our needs. Go check it out!! read more

It's been awhile since I've been downtown to Moons. I wanted to try the new place and I like it. Clean and bright. I think they have the best biscuits and gravy around town. read more

We called in ahead making sure they had room for 3 on a Sunday morning and sure enough we got a reservation. We showed up and were seated quickly. The restaurant had a great energy and overall very positive vibe plus the smells coming from the kitchen smelled amazing. Mary was our server and she was super friendly. I have the gluten allergy and the hubby and teenager do not. They got the beignets and they loved them. I got the Cali egg Benedict and they had GF bread! Plus the hollandaise sauce was home made and GF. Hubby got the chorizo omelet and the teenager got the breakfast burrito. Bonus we got the GF pancake for the table and the table approved! Great breakfast and Mary our server was super friendly and knowledgeable. She even got us coffee to go! Well done - next time we are in town we will be back. read more

My family came to Moon's after receiving horrible customer service from "the fork". We had a party of 7 and asked if we could just get tables close together if they couldn't accommodate a large party. The lady who helped us was very pleasant and said I will try my best which is all we were looking for. We know it's difficult with covid to be able to seat people. We waited about 20 minutes and to our surprise, they put two tables together and were able to accommodate our party. The food was delicious and the service was prompt. It was busy but the server was always helpful and checked on us. read more

The food was fantastic! For my fellow vegans, they were able to modify their Huevos Rancheros to be vegan by substituting the eggs and cheese for more veggies. I personally added spinach, mushrooms, squash, and more potatoes and it was DELICIOUS. It seems most of their stuff is cooked in some sort of soy/vegetable oil so it was safe and (very importantly) nothing upset my stomach at all - which is a plight most people with dietary restrictions who have accidentally been served something they didn't ask for have experienced. Note: I was the only vegan in my group, but everyone at the table was raving about the food! The portions are freakin huge, most people at my table were not able to finish their plates and took home leftovers. Our server was super friendly and accommodating! To our surprise, they were able to get us in very quickly with a group of 8 during the Sunday brunch rush - although a big factor there was plenty of luck with the timing of our arrival, so results may vary. 10/10 would go again! read more

came in here on a sunday morning for breakfast. it was pretty busy, as expected, but there were 2 seats left at the counter so we snagged them. I think it was the owner that served us. she was an older woman and absolutely so sweet. kind, helpful, knowledgeable about the menu, and attentive. I enjoyed her presence the whole time we sat. had coffee to start. really good coffee for a diner. they kept coming by with a hot carafe and refilling. for our meals, my husband got the "hobo benedict" which is on biscuits instead of english muffins and has sausage gravy instead of hollandaise. he really enjoy it, and it looked delicious. I didn't even get a bite so that's always a good sign! I got a bacon cheeseburger. i'm notorious for this at breakfast places. I don't really like breakfast tbh. if there is a non breakfast item on a menu i'm ordering it. it was FANTASTIC. i'm serious. flavorful patty and good sized, the toppings were all fresh, the bacon was crispy, and the bun was some kind of buttered brioche thing. I was drooling immediately. the best part of the meal? the fries. they might be the best fries I have ever had in idaho, period. fresh, not too crispy, cut just right. I was in love immediately. I think we found my favorite breakfast place in town. we will definitely be coming before 10 am though. i'm thinking 8 am would be the best time on a weekend. oh, by the way....they have a milkshake machine! getting one of those next time too! read more

Food is so good! I got the breakfast scramble and lavender coffee and it was heaven. Hefty portions and great service, will visit again!

Good ole restaurant great food and service, only draw back is its hard to find parking.

The service was great, the beignet's that you can order in the first 5 minutes of your meal are amazing. The kids portions and adult are great size for your preference. And the vibe was great it's like a 1980's diner meets 2024 read more

I happened to be from out of town on a business trip in Boise for the last two days. This trip wasn't particularly relaxing, as most business trips are not. But I came to Moon's Kitchen Cafe for both mornings I've been here and I have to say it has been a while since I've received such great service. The servers were friendly, attentive, kind, and efficient. One in particular stood out to me - Christi. She came to refill my coffee consistently, checked on me, and let me sit and relax and do some work on my iPad after my meal. She even commented that she liked my sweater (which was a Dunder Mifflin sweater) . It was a relief not having to stress about another thing while on my trip. The food was delicious too! The first morning I got the classic french toast and the second morning I got the half order of the biscuits and gravy. I also got drip coffee (which never ran empty)! The atmosphere is fun, quirky, and very relaxed. You can see that the staff really help each other out. Thank you to the cooks, servers, and all other staff at Moon's Kitchen Cafe! read more
