This is a great small place on 6th St. perched at the bottom of the stairs to the Reef. It can get a bit crowded this time of year because the patio dining is closed. Decent discount on well drinks during 3-6 M-F. Always great high temperature pizza. Best recommendation is to get two personal pizzas instead of the large one. The small ones are of higher quality and taste better. All of them have the delicious burned edges and bottoms. The "dough is great" is heard whenever people take their first bite. The chicken Caesar salad is a fan favorite. Our best experience has been with their Goodfella pizza. We have heard fabulous praise for their Mac & Cheese stuffed pizza. read more

Cool ass little Italian joint right below the Reef. I ordered the cobb salad with a couple modifications. It was huge and delicious! I was also able to try the garlic bread. It came with a good helping of marinara sauce. The meatballs were ok, they were on the dry side but had a good amount of sauce and cheese in top. There was only one server and he did an amazing job maintaining our drinks, checking up on us and serving others diners that were eating. I look forward to going back. read more

Holy! Loved the atmosphere, loved the pizza. My husband is pretty critical when it comes to pizza... this place did not disappoint! The sauce was the right amount of sweet, and just enough on the pizza to compliment the toppings. Crust light and airy, not too thick not too thin. The toppings were delicious and not over done! It was so good we went twice during our visit.. btw: it's best to order 2 of the garlic bread, highly addictive! read more

Really surprised about this one. Based on other reviews and Yelp Pictures I was optimistic that this would be a hit. Sadly I came up short on that. First issue if you will was the Tomato Soup I ordered. The picture on Yelp looked amazing, the product received looked and tasted more like pizza sauce. Still suspect I was duped. Nonetheless, I ordered a Margherita of sorts with pesto drizzle. It came out slightly different from that. It wasn't bad, but then again it wasn't great. Room for improvement here. All in all, it was ok. A few tweaks and this place and subsequent review can go from ok to fantastic. read more

Friendly service and cozy space. We enjoyed the tasty IPAs, delicious garlic bread and pizza, and amazing jalapeño poppers. Four of us loved the Goodfella pizza. The crust was as good as the toppings, the mozzarella was high quality (not stretchy/rubbery), and there was just the right amount of artichokes. The poppers were more like stuffed jalapeños, spicy and super yummy. And we really liked the Triceratops IPA. We'll be back the next time we're in Boise. read more

Pretty tasty pizza! I've been to Front Door plenty of times and it has never disappointed. All of their pizzas are delightful. They are also massive if you get the biggest size (yay leftovers)! The service is always great here. They're very accommodating. My family could not get into a restaurant over the holidays and failed to make a reservation anywhere early enough.

I really only have 1 rule when it comes to picking a great restaurant. I only need the people fixing and serving the food to care as much about it as I do. Ok - well - it can be better than that. And in this case it was. I came in for a quick lunch. I'm traveling from back east for work, my expectations were admittedly low. But Nathan, David & Lucas sort of blew me away. Who'd expect to be so excited by a club sandwich and a cup of tomato basil soup? I was. Look. You can see why. I should've known by the look on the chef's face when he brought it out. He was overflowing with pride and expectation. And he was right. If you're in Boise, eat at The Front Door. read more

What a great experience!! The bartender, Isaiah, is an exceptional waiter - personable, knowledgeable and a good listener! Refills were delivered promptly. He and the kitchen staff took my food allergy questions seriously & double-checked ingredients to ensure I had amazing choices and could eat safely with the others in my party. And the food !?!?!?!? Really, REALLY good pizza! As transplants, we had not yet found a favorite pizza place, but that search is OVER! Who knew a "mac & cheese" pizza could be so flavorful? Even the adults were delighted! The "under 10 crowd" declared it "magnificent!" (yes, really!). And the Bootlegger may be THE perfect bbq chicken pizza!!! The ambiance is pub-like but completely family friendly (before 10 pm). OK... admittedly I have one situation that wasn't ideal... We had called ahead for reservations and were walking to the restaurant... and... (even though using our phone's navigation app) walked right past!! Obviously, we did find the right "front door". Despite this small initial snafu, we count this a 10/10 experience and I will look forward to a return!! If YOU are looking for the "Front Door", be sure to look for the door below the sign for the "Reef"!! I'm quite certain you will find it worth your search!! read more

We were headed to the restaurant upstairs for lunch but the sign said they were closed, so we hung a left and discovered one of Boise's gems. Diego was at the bar and welcomed us in. We told him it was our first time, so he took the time to tell us about all the food and drink options. We found a cozy spot near a window and enjoyed an N/A beer while we waited for our sandwiches and soup (It was a tough choice! The menu has lots of delicious-sounding items.) The food arrived and did not disappoint. Five stars for the food, availability of non-alcohol beer, and excellent service, and an extra star for Diego's choice in music. This is a new favorite.

This is our favorite restaurant for pizza and a good selection of craft beers. The Irish Idahoan pizza is our favorite, by far. We are vegetarians so we substitute red onion and bell pepper for steak and bacon. The crust is perfect as is the combination of veggies and cheese on top.

A small window in the door opened and we had to provide a password to gain entry. (Initially our large group had to reserve 3 time slots and we would be seated separately.) I was in the first group. We were let into a small area with floor to ceiling bookcases. Of course there was a book that once pulled, opened a secret door to the bar within. The ambiance was dim lighting and groups of comfortable seating areas. The waiter was very attentive and knowledgeable about the drinks on the menu. I started with a mocktail that could be made vegan by omitting the egg white. Beautifully presented with a flower design. It was sweet and it was tart. The second drink I got was a cocktail that was smooth with a perfect amount of sweet. My friends got cocktails in their unique glasses. When our next group came through, they were led into a room. After a while, one friend came out to say hello to us. The waiter noticed that we knew each other and told my group to follow him. The room was dimly lit and was furnished with comfortable armchairs and couches. Our third group was able to join us in the room and we were able to mingle seated or standing. The different drinks that were ordered were so cool. A smoky bubble was set on top of a cone shaped glass that resembled an ice cream cone. I had a couple of friends that ordered gin drinks and they were served in a bathtub complete with rubber ducky! This was such a fun and special way to celebrate a friend's birthday!

Imagine yourself walking through the 8th St promenade in downtown Boise. It's hustling and bustling with people and restaurants that are packed. Then, out of the corner of your eye, you see an alley. It's kinda dark, maybe a little unsettling at first. You see a steel door with a small panel at the top of the door. No door handles but a green lit old stagecoach light, a small wooden sign hanging g just beyond the door with a key on it. Hmmm, strange. In faded sharpie letters it says Knock knock on the metal door, so you knock twice. The panel on the door slides open and they ask for the password. Whoa!!!! Luckily you called ahead to make reservations so they whispered it to you. You give the password and door opens to a tiny little library with a couple of shelves full of books. The hosts welcomes you and you stare at the bookshelf knowing it isn't just a bookshelf but a door. You try pulling on different books guessing which is the right one but after a minute the hostess shows you and you enter a beautiful brick walled 1920s decorated room with seats and dim lights and no windows whatsoever. The artwork is prohibition-era themed. Heck, there's even a stack of wooden barrels that supposedly hold spirits. That is exactly the speakeasy experience you are looking for. We were seated in the boiler room, a private area which had beautiful wooden lockers with glass doors all lit up and full of booze. Books line the wall and there is an old fireplace covered with candles that have melted wax all over the mantle. In the corner is a poker table. Really the perfect vibe for a speakeasy. Glance at the menu and notice their tang of cheaper to very rare and unique spirits, some costing hundreds of dollars for a shot. Whisky, vodka, rum, gin, scotch, bourbon, you name it. But also check out their cocktails. They can even make mocktails if you don't want alcohol. Not only are the drinks unique but so is their presentation. The glades used I've never seen. Some drinks have a printed pattern on them, others come with dry ice that quickly evaporates or a cool smoked filled bubble. The whole experience was just amazing. This is a do not miss opportunity if you like drinks and cool, unique experiences. They even have another room in the back called the Garrison Room which looks like a mineshaft. I just love the thought put into this place. And when you are done, you exit through a nondescript door and exits to a patio area of another restaurant and back out to the promenade. Just a wow experience! So glad I did it.

We're from Utah and these drinks aren't Utah pours, I'll tell you that much! They were really delicious. I got the aqueduct which had vodka, passionfruit-peach honey, lime, and curacao. I was worried it was going to be too sweet when I ordered it but it was delicious. I also got the Hawaiian Chi Chi which had vodka, macadamia nut liqueur, coconut cream, pineapple, and orange. The macadamia nut liqueur was so unique and delicious, it really added a lot to the drink. Both drinks were amazing, and not too sweet or overpowering in flavor, and I would order them again. They have a snacky menu - we got their chips & queso and my partner ordered their oysters and really enjoyed them. The chips and queso were wonderful.

Now I know I have not eaten here before...we did stop in a couple of times and once left because nothing on the HH menu looked good to us at that time. The second time we walked out after sitting there for 10-15 minutes and not getting any service! Now it was a beautiful morning and my gf really wanted to go here, great patio I will say. It took a bit seeing that we didn't have a reservation but we did get seated on the patio. Now I will say the service was not great but it was not an issue for the most part, I thought our waitress did a good job she was just really busy! What I will judge was the wait and the food! I love the fact they care about their ingredients, what they use and where they get it...it showed in some ways! What I didn't love was the fact they absolutely sucked on the follow through! I had the crab eggs Benedict...now I remember from culinarily school that hollandaise sauce is hard, but making it without it breaking is a MUST! Mine was broken, fat separated out, something you would never see at a half ass breakfast place like Dennys!! This was gross, pure and simple! My gfs breakfast came out wrong...took a while to get it the first time and even longer to get the right dish!!! It was an eggswhite Frittata, they do not take long to make in a very small cast iron! Now the part that I really didn't like...she paid, she is not my baby momma, love of my life but not mother of my daughter...and she paid the whole bill!! She should not have been charged for the Frittata...it took forever to get the right one and then she didn't eat much of it at all, we were done time wise and it was not good...very bland and rubbery!! She wouldn't let me complain since she was paying, she is so sweet and kind, just that kind of person! I was tempted to quietly track down the manager...but didn't! Should have! Over all, don't think I would go back! When your kitchen can't make simple sauces and the basics, why should I give you my money?? Or hers! The manager owes her a gift card! KT

Bacon Boise

My friend, Tod wanted to come here to celebrate his birthday. I have never been and this joint has…read morebeen on my to go list so it was a win win heading to Bacon Boise today! The weather was fabulous so sitting outside in the patio area was the perfect setting for breakfast. We got food ordered at the counter. The gal that was helping was kind but not very helpful. There was a gentleman that was working who stepped up to the plate and helped me out. I wanted hot coffee but since it was self serve, I couldn't have it. I decided not to get coffee but he suggested a cold brew. He had me sold the way he described it to me. So for breakfast today I got a vanilla iced cold brew with Boise Basin omelet. The patio area was perfection. Big orange umbrellas to keep us shaded. Tables nicely spaced so you didn't feel congested. And it's nicely tucked in so that you're not completely exposed to the street. You couldn't have asked for a better setting. My omelet and coffee trickled out. Mannnnn, it all looked fantastic! My omelet was hearty. Prettily garnished with fresh pico. The potatoes were golden topped with fried okra on top. My biscuit looked like it came out of the oven with a side of butter and jam. This plate of mine was going to get devoured! My omelet was fluffy stuffed with bacon, green peppers and onions. I also grabbed a side of sausage gravy to go with it and the gravy was the perfect match for my potatoes. The gravy and omelet was a winning combination too! Ughhhh it was so good. I ate so much of my omelet and potatoes that I ended up taking my biscuit home. I am planning to eat the rest of my potatoes and omelet for lunch later! I also got the pleasure of meeting Mr. John Berryhill. My friend, Tod are friends with John so it was great to see them interact and conversate with one another. I appreciate that he took time out of his duties to chat with us. He also gifted Tod a bag of birthday bacon. What a fun gift to receive! I'm so happy we got to come here for breakfast and celebrate my friend's birthday. The food was amazing. Service was fantastic and the venue is stunning! There is a huge cinnamon roll topped with bacon that's calling my name! I will have to come back soon to try it out!

I first reviewed Bacon about three years ago, and recently had the chance to visit again. One of…read morethe highlights of this visit was meeting the owner. He was incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuinely took the time to connect with guests. I was dining with my daughter, who uses a wheelchair, and his warmth and attentiveness made us feel especially comfortable and appreciated. The restaurant still has the lively atmosphere and unique service style that makes it stand out. The staff was friendly, and the overall experience was enjoyable. As for the food, I was a little disappointed with the beignets this time around. They were much doughier than I expected and didn't have the light, fluffy texture I was hoping for. It wasn't a deal-breaker, but it was definitely the one item that missed the mark for me. That said, Bacon continues to be a great spot for breakfast and brunch, and the hospitality we experienced during this visit left a lasting impression. Meeting the owner and seeing how much he cares about his guests made this return visit memorable, and I'll certainly be back to try more of the menu.

We ordered the halibut fish cake for an appetizer. Incredibly tender (not fishy) and crispy on the outside. Delicious! My husband had the sourdough pappardelle which reminded me of the pasta and gravy that my grandfather made (my grandfather was from Sicily, he called it gravy.) It tasted and brought back memories of my childhood. Never have tasted anything this close to what my grandfather made--ever! Kudos to the chef!!! I had the lamb porterhouse. It was very good. Cooked medium rare. Tender and very tasty. Would order again. If that was not enough we got the panna cotta for dessert which was creamy and melted in your mouth. Oh and we got an order of sourdough focaccia to go... and yes, I tore I to it when we got home. It was full of flavor, still warm and had wonderful Italian spices and EVOO in it. When you bit into it you had a lovely film of EVOO on your lips. Not too much, just enough to make you smile. So much flavor!! Came with Italian chili oil. OMG good. We will be back.... Soon.

All 10/10 and you could really taste the smoke of the oven. My husband had the sticky ribs and he said some of the best he's ever had! We finished off our meal with a delicious slice of carrot cake.

If the weather is cooperating, sit outside. The beer selection is impressive, with a great range of lagers and ales. We had our eye on one particular light, crisp option, but they were out for the night. Our server pointed us toward something comparable... I believe it was called Teddy Bearnd...it worked. Now, the food. My friend went for one of their signature burgers, which was seasoned simply so the beef really gets to shine. The only hiccup was that they were out of tomatoes, which is a non-negotiable topping for her, so keep that in mind if tomatoes are a must. I went a different route and ordered the beef focaccia. Uniquely layered ribeye and really good. We also shared a Greek salad that was simple but fresh and satisfying. And the french fries with their homemade ketchup? Don't skip em. Service was smooth and friendly from start to finish. No complaints.

The Wylder

My husband and I came to the Wylder for dinner. It was very busy the night we came in. We put our…read morename on the wait list and hung out till we were called. We were anticipating a 35 minute wait. We kicked it outside and enjoyed the downtown vibe. I did end up going in to see if there were any bar spots available. There was but it would have been a tight squeeze so we just hung out till it was our turn. Surprisingly, the hostess told us that we just needed to waited for another couple minutes. Our name was next to get sat. We were finally a table outside. Our little table was perfect for the two of us. I believe our server's name was Sophie? I could be totally wrong cause I'm the worst at remembering names. I just remember her pretty shoulder length blonde hair and her beautiful smile. She also normally works in the bar area but was serving tonight cause it was busy. I'm just going to keep calling our server Sophie so that this review stays consistent. Sophie greeted us and got some water started. My husband ordered a Starry so while that was being prepared, we looked over the menu. We were both starving so everything looked delicious! The last time I was in, I had a fantastic salad. Today, I'm ready to try a few things to add to my "I ate it" list. My husband and I got some meatballs, roasted cauliflower and chicken peas, harrisa citrus glazed wings and a Margherita pizza with salami on half of it for dinner. We were both hungry and ready to eat! And what we all ordered sounded fabulous! The meatballs came out first. 3 hearty meatballs nestled in a generous helping of marinara sauce. It was a great way to start our meal. The bread that was paired with it was the perfect vessel for the marinara sauce. The cauliflower and chick peas was my favorite! Roasted perfectly, the cauliflower and chick peas were so clean tasting and fresh. I loved the citrusy flavor of this dish. I ate the whole plate myself. I appreciate that the wings were nicely baked and then grilled. I love me a good char on my food! The harrisa sauce was on the side just in case it was too spicy for my husband. I ate a majority of the wings and I probably could have polished off another plate. They were fantastic! My husband did enjoy his pizza. He's a huge pizza connoisseur and was very impressed with his Margherita. I didn't get a chance to try it since I was stuffed from all our starters. There are 2 slices left and I plan on enjoying it tomorrow. I did have a little room left for dessert of course. My husband decided on the salted caramel ice cream pie. Ughhhhh this dessert was so good! We polished this whole ice cream pie. It was the greatest combination of sweet and savory. The peanuts added such a great crunch to the ice cream. My favorite was the peanut butter in the middle. A delicious sweet ending to our dinner. I'm happy my husband got to experience the Wylder tonight. I had such a great time for my first visit so it was nice that my husband got one too. Our server was marvelous! The food was remarkable! The setting was so cozy and romantic. It was the perfect setting for our date night. I can't wait to come back for round 2 with my husband.

But that was all explained to us, so we were fine with the waits. I don't even like lasagna but because of the hype on the menu, we ordered it - as well as a pizza. The lasagna was definitely the star. It looked terrible on the plate (like it was mostly tomato sauce), but it was so light and delicious! I could not stop eating it. The pizza crust was very good. We thought they added way too many toppings (and forgot one that we asked for) but it was still pretty good. Done with some moderation, it would be excellent. The service was very well orchestrated and they communicated delays, etc. throughout the process - you can tell they are well trained. Note: The spicy honey sauce isn't spicy at all. We heard the people next to us say the same thing. Maybe they should have a regular and a spicy so they could actually have a spicy hot for those who want spicy!
