    I'm very happy the Genki food truck exists! I have fun finding them staged around Boise and…read moregrabbing some delicious takoyaki. It's rather difficult, if not almost impossible, to find delicious, authentic Japanese cuisine in the Treasure Valley. This small food cart is an Idaho gem. I've tried several of their food items, however this review will focus on their namesake dish, takoyaki (octopus ball). For those who don't know, takoyaki is a popular Japanese street food with bits of chopped octopus and dough inside a slightly crispy shell garnished with takoyaki sauce. I was very happy with how similar the snack tastes to the ones I've had in Japan. Genki serves these in 6 pieces ($6) and there are several sauces available. I like to top mine with sriracha to add a kick. It's a wonderful mid evening snack! My only complaint is on a couple visits I found my takoyaki to be rather old tasting, like either the oil hadn't been changed in a while or the octopus was overdue. It's happened less times than more so I'll still continue to eat this unless it becomes more frequent. Genki use to be very active on the Street Food Finder app but this summer they seem to limit their postings to Facebook and Instagram, so if you want to find them you'll have to go either of those routes.

    Nice to see a little exotic flavor in the Boise food scene. Fresh Takoyaki made right in front of…read moreyou, and quick. They have octopus and BBQ pork, which I had never seen before. Of course I had to try both. 6 dumplings made for a big snack or a small meal. I would have preferred them slightly more crispy, but that's an easy fix if you ask. Topped with bonito flakes, Japanese mayo, and teriyaki sauce for a nice mix of savory and sweet flavors. The pricing doesn't make a whole lot of sense: $4 for 4, 5$ for 6, $7 for 8. Sort of de-incentivizing ppl from going for 8. Just a thought.

    Delicious bbq! I've eaten a lot of bbq in Texas and I would say this is as good if not better. The…read morebrisket was perfect, the bark was so good. The spare ribs were also fantastic with flavor and fall off the bone. Ribs came with rice and slaw. The slaw was good, different but good. I particularly liked it because it wasn't full mayo and base. It had a citrus flavor to it. Worked great with the rice and ribs. Quesadilla was good too. The ribs and brisket had a more pronounced flavor over the quesadilla because it was just meat and not mixed with cheese, sauces, and 2 meats. But it was still amazing. The bbq sauce added great flavor and was not over powering. The salsas with the taco/quesadillas were also delicious.

Service: the service is incredible and you can tell it's a group of people that are very passionate about the food they make. I've had a chat with different staff on my two visits and they are all delightful human beings. Food: I can't say enough good things about the food, I've been here with two different groups of people and everything ordered is amazing. Not a single negative thing has been said about it. I highly recommend getting the nachos without meat if you're a vegetarian and I would be licking the inside of the paper tray. Their flavor combinations are just next level and the quality of everything produced is top tier. I wish I could eat here all the time!
