    Inside out: parking is easy, in a shopping complex at the end. The inside is modern decor but it gets loud fast as there doesn't seem to be much noise dampening from the design. If you have sensory issue with sound- bring loops or ear protection if it's busy. Service: Standard and nice! Food: Delicious! I did the pineapple curry as spicy as it could go and it wasn't too spicy for me, but I'm a monster. The portions are generous and the food tasted fresh! My family got sweet and sour something and said it was a little spicy for them but they are very low spice tolerance. Over all I say it's a great place, maybe not the best for a date when it's busy because conversations may be difficult, but it's clean and lovely!

    Very enjoyable, green curry chicken, three stars for dinner at Thai Bistro. Tuesday night dinner had a small crowd. Place is clean and bright at the end of mall by the DQ. Green curry was creamy and packed full of flavor. More rice than many other places serve. Price was about $16 and well worth it! Will come again for sure!!

    We really enjoyed our food at this restaurant. They cooked it very quickly, and the owner even came out to greet us. Food tasted great. The lady who waited on us was very helpful. Definitely Two thumbs up.

    This is the best Thai restaurant in Boise! The staff is friendly, the restaurant is extremely clean. The food is like you're traveling to Thai Land. The Red Curry was just as good as having it across the world. I will definitely be back! I give this place 5 stars! If you like Thai coffee don't skip the deliciousness!!

The BBQ wings were absolutely delicious! The Korean wings had great flavor too, but they were a little too spicy for me. We also ordered the truffle fries, and those were SO good! Definitely something I would order again. For my entrée, I had the steak bowl with stir-fried sesame brown rice & red quinoa, mushrooms, snap peas, bok choy, carrots, red onion, baby broccoli, and red pepper flakes. Everything came together perfectly, and the steak made the bowl filling without feeling too heavy. My best friend ordered the cilantro lime chicken, and of course I had to taste a bite . The chicken was so tender and delicious--I completely understood why she enjoyed it! We each had a strawberry margarita, and they were flavorful, refreshing, and the perfect drink to go along with our meal. The atmosphere was lively and fun, making it a great place to grab drinks, enjoy good food, and catch up with your best friend. We had such a nice night out and left very satisfied. I'd definitely come back!

    I've been to the new Freshii at Boise State twice since it opened. The first time, a few days after…read moretheir initial opening, I was pretty unimpressed. The menu displays weren't working so customers got to pass around a few paper menus. I chose the Tex-Mex burrito with chicken, which cost me nearly $10. Here's the thing about Freshii - the burritos have a base price, and then you pay extra for any sort of protein filling, be it chicken, falafel, tofu, et cetera. Around 10 minutes later, I received my burrito and found myself entering a land of fresh disappointment. The chicken was cold and mushy, the tortilla cold and tough, and the whole thing generally lacked in flavor. On top of this, it was small, consisting mostly of scrunched up tortilla. For the same price, I could get something similar from Chipotle (I'm not a huge Chipotle fan but it's the closest local analog I can think of) WITH added guacamole and it would be about three times as large, usually lasting me two meals. I chalked this up as a possible opening week glitch and decided to try it again a couple of weeks later. Here I sit, exactly two weeks later, contemplating another cold, small, depressing burrito. I opted for the baja burrito with chicken, totaling an astounding $8.99. Again, the burrito is cold. The chicken is cold. There's some sort of sauce on it that only adds a flaccid moisture, not any flavor. I am a sad panda. The burrito is a bit bigger this time, maybe half the size of a Chipotle burrito, but that seems to make it feel even more depressing. This location used to be a Subway and, while I like Subway even less than Chipotle, I find myself wishing it was back; at least the hot food was hot.

    Mai Thai has gone through a lot. There was the kitchen fire in November 2023 that closed down the…read morepopular downtown Boise eatery. Days later, the city condemned the entire building, saying that a seemingly never-ending project by the building's owner to replace a basement floor had rendered the building unsafe. What had been expected to be a two-month closure has lingered for nearly two years as the building owner and the city have fought in court to get the building made safe again. As a result, Mai Thai, which had operated in the Union Block for 20 years has been largely homeless for nearly two years. They reopened at the kitchen of the defunct Crave delivery service in Meridian, a ghost kitchen concept, offering takeout and delivery far from the restaurant's Boise base. In early August, Mai Thai opened at a Boise ghost kitchen, only it's owner Billy Pothikamjorn and his staff running the place, not contacted workers with no ties to the actual restaurant. Mai Thai was located close to our home in Boise's West End and its new location is even closer. It's located in the West End Food Co. on Main Street. We ordered Hat Yai fried chicken, street food from Thailand topped with crispy shallots and served with yellow curry, roti and ginger rice. I had drunken noodles and Kristy and I shared an order of paratha a type of roti bread) with Japanese pumpkin green curry. Everything was excellent. Pothikamjorn took my order and prepared the food, so I knew it was going to have the same quality as when they were in their downtown location. Service is mostly restricted to takeout and free delivery if you live within a six-mile radius. There's a few tables outside, but it's on the sunny side of the street and during the hot summer likely isn't too inviting. I'm glad to see Billy and his crew back in Boise. They were among the restaurants that sustained us during Covid with their home delivery so we're happy they've persevered despite the troubles at their former location.

The person who brought my food out seemed nice though. I liked their music choices. I had the vegan orange tofu bowl. It was pretty good - the tofu was had a nice crispy coating, the vegetables were fresh, and the orange sauce was really good. Some orange sauces are very sweet but this one was more balanced, more tangy than sweet. Note that this comes with a salad dressing containing honey by default. They make this pretty clear in the menu description and give you the option to remove it; I got the dressing but think the bowl would still be good without it. I also got a mini matcha cheesecake slice. I wanted a sweet bite but didn't have the appetite for a big dessert, so this was the perfect size. The matcha flavour was nice and it wasn't too sweet, though it was a little on the dry side. Overall a good place if you want a very casual and quick but healthy meal.

I'm not a fan of the self serve kiosks.. but it's not the end of the world! I really only came here for the sushi and to see their menu with very little variety made me want to leave, but instead I was determined to try it out. I ordered 4 different rolls and their cucumber salad. The salad was great! The rolls were mid. It got the job done. However, there are better sushi places with a more authentic feel in the treasure valley and if I'm being frank I wouldn't recommend this place.
