    Risotto balls appetizer.
    Renee M.

    I really enjoyed the food at this restaurant. Just wish this chairs were more comfortable. The staff was friendly and engaging and in between customers playing Yahtzee with each other which I found endearing. Highly recommend the risotto balls ,The sauce is amazing with balsamic vinegar swirls inside of some lemon cream.. pure decadence. And I didn't get to partake but I did hear that they have salsa classes that I'm hoping to make it back for.

    You see a sign that says wait to be seated, and after 7 minutes, we stopped waiting and took a table. After 10 more minutes, two waters showed up but no menus, napkins, or utensils. This method creates multiple trips back and forth. The employee looks busy, but very little is getting accomplished. When do these people get trained on customer service? They seem totally enamored by the POS screens rather than checking on customers. On the 4th trip to the table, napkins and forks showed up. It is no secret in the restaurant business that when employees make regular visit to their tables there is more chance to sell more food & drinks. All this wasted motion works against the interest of the owners. The food was served hot and both our dishes were very tasty. The business manager is either not involved or not aware of these deficiencies. Something as simple as if you are going to put a sign out requiring guests to wait to be seated, have someone stationed there. Duuuuuhhhh!

    Sweet Potato Enchiladas
    Kristen M.

    First night in Boise, we were tired from flying and looked for a local place but didn't want to wait so we ended up here. I was thinking it was just bar food but saw these Sweet Potato Enchiladas and was very intrigued. Sweet Potato Enchiladas are something you need in your life!! The chipotle chile verde sauce, cashew cheese and chimichurri on top oh my. You bet I are everything and I had to hold myself back from literally not licking the plate it was so flippin good. Instead of rice it was served with an avocado and spicy chili risotto which was a perfect compliment to the enchiladas. Don't pass up Solid, do yourself a solid and stop in !

    23 bucks for the world's smallest piece of salmon. In a fun and festive friendly place. Excellent waitress. Or is it 'server' to be P.C...?.. Prices high for what u get. 9.99 for soup and salad -- ok. I fell for it ' vegan chili'. Beans in canned stewed tomatoes. Salad is bagged. Nothing special here, folks. But the server was lovely.

    Blackened salmon

    I came here during taste of Boise and had the pumpkin soup, blackened salmon, and pumpkin cheesecake and it was sooooo delicious! Everything was flavourful- the soup had such a deep flavor and the salmon was cooked perfectly with a delicious sauce. The restaurant is warm and welcoming as well. Excellent service.

    Pro-tip: Decent food for a place that's open so late at night. Highlights: Not a ton of late night options in Boise, so I was surprised that the food here was pretty decent honestly. The menu is pretty extensive too and it's not overly priced. Lowlights: The server definitely got my boyfriend's beer order wrong and even when we pointed out that it was the wrong one, he didn't believe us.

    Dessert menu

    Service: 3/5 Dessert: 3/5 Portions for price: 2/5 It was open late so we went for dessert but I wouldn't go back for dessert unless I had no other options.

    Music creates wonderful atmosphere.

    Just flew in from S. Cal and walked here from our nearby hotel. Beautiful night, delicious burgers, great music, sweet service and relaxing atmosphere - conveniently located in downtown Boise. The vibe here tonight is lovely - and it's only Wednesday. Our burgers were $12/each and really good. Service was great - attentive and polite. Soaking in the perfect night.

    On our way to Yellowstone N.P., started our drive this morning in Cottage Grove, Oregon. (I few in to Eugene from So Cal over the weekend. ) We are overnighting in Twin Falls and it is late (9 p.m. ) so we decided to find a restaurant that was open late. Lucky us. Solid Grill & Bar in Downtown Boise was open until two. Our server, Hannah, could not have been more friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. 5 stars! And the food--perfection. I had the Bleu Idaho Steak Salad. My traveling companion had the Poutine. I'd go back in. heartbeat. Don't miss this place if you are in Boise!

We saw a young couple get frustrated with how packed it was and left, but what do you expect on a Friday night, this isn't a fast food place. We stuck around and placed our order. Got lucky because they only do Fish Fry's on Fridays! Ordered the prawns and fish, got two order of buffalo wings, Mac and cheese, chipotle wrap, and kids burger. Fish was amazing!! Tasted Fresh! Not frozen! I was really not sure what to expect and faced my fears and ordered it. I can say it was some of the best fried fish I've had no lie. I was super pleased with it! Next time I'll try just the fish and chips in hopes that it comes with one more piece. The prawns were skinny ones and I wasn't too fond of them but the fish the main dish was perfect! Wife and bro-in law got an order of wings each and they were both super happy with them, I snagged 3 and would say top 5 wings I've had. Sister got the chipotle wrap and she said it was really good! Wife also got the mac n cheese with bacon and her and the kids loved it. Kids burger was able to split between two kids and they tore it up along with the mac n cheese! We had a great experience!

I saw…read morenotifications on Facebook that they would be open during Treefort 2024 but didn't think I would be able to fit it into my schedule. By coincidence when walking around town I spotted it and had to go try. I'm a sucker for biscuits and gravy and these definitely beat what you would find in a Denny's or IHOP by a landslide on the taste and aesthetic scale! It's super filling since there's so many carbs, but the taters (more like small potato wedges) are actually a clever add-in. They add a slight bit of texture to the mushiness of the gravy-soaked biscuits, and potatoes and gravy are already best friends in terms of food pairings. There's also garnish on top (some sort of greens and cheese) that gives it a nice look and extra flavor. Delicious! I didn't think much of the customer service initially aside from thinking they were super friendly. However, I sat down at one of the tables and took my time eating and people watching. So many people came by the store to talk to the chefs with such familiarity that it felt like this popup was its own restaurant and community. It hasn't reached a point of popularity where it's flooded with people, but the more I look back on the experience, the nicer I feel about it. Even after a lot of time had passed and the staff had already helped out so many people, when I left, they called out my name and it made me wish I could go back again. This is one of the best experiences I've ever had at a restaurant. Not because it's spectacular or mindblowing, but because it was great people watching. The food itself was also amazing for late night food-coma inducing munching.

Using Yelp, we found Matlack's Public House Beergarten and liked the look of their sandwiches. We arrived 15min before they opened and wandered around a bit before heading back. The hostess/waitress took us in and thanked us for coming back (she must have watched us try to get in earlier). We got to pick our table in the dining area. The interior is smaller but very clean and classy. The only thing I didn't like were the chairs as they were benches and stools with no back support. I ordered the Santa Maria Tri-tip sandwich and an iced tea. My son also got the same sandwich. Their sandwiches all come with Fritos unless you're looking to spend more for a salad, mac & cheese or chili. This was the best sandwich I've had in years! The baguette had a little crunch on the outside but soft on the inside. The tri-tip was hickory and apple smoked and was tender and delicious. The chimichurri was a perfect accompaniment, as were the roasted poblano peppers. I also enjoyed the Fritos as the side. We also received top-notch service from the waitress.

I ordered the Mac n Cheese without the breadcrumbs and the hubs ordered it and added bacon. It was creamy and yummy. I ended out taking some of my back to the room. It reheated well, so made for an excellent midnight(ish) snack! The place wasn't too busy when we were there, the bartender was also our waiter. He was polite and helpful. The table/chairs were clean and people looked like locals (which is always comforting when you randomly pick a spot). There's indoor and outdoor seating. I didn't see a lot of parking.
