Epi's is a delightful experience. The food and friendly atmosphere are out of this world. After you have eaten there once or twice, they make you feel like family. I highly recommend Epi's. Some of my party has sea bass and said excellent. I love the lamb stew.
There are some expensive classy restaurants in Boise, but Epi's is like home!
2. Kahootz Pub & Eatery
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 193 reviews
Reviewed By Chance W - Caldwell, Idaho
Kahootz is home to one of the best prime rib I have ever experience. From the appetizers to the desserts the menu is top to bottom a tasty experience. The beer selection fits almost any pallet and Kahootz keeps a few nitro beers on rotation.
Go early or be prepared to wait. The restaurant is small and seating is at a premium, but it is worth the wait.
Last night was the first night this year I have been able to make it in. The stuffed pasta appetizer was divine and the new york steak was well cooked. I can't wait to get back.

Texas Roadhouse is popular for Steaks and Grilled food. I ordered Grilled Salmon and it was very delicious. Their cocktails are huge and tasty. Prices are very reasonable...I recommend going there with a family for steaks or grilled food. The portions are quite large.

Outstanding cuisine! Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING was perfect. All dishes were cooked perfectly and the recipes put all the components together perfectly to make a truly memorable dining experience. We ordered spicy ahi tuna sushi, clam chowder, shrimp scampi, mahi-mahi tacos, Med Mahi, bourbon bread pudding, and mango cake. The chefs here are true professionals. Dont’ come here looking for a value meal but if you are looking for quality you will not be disappointed. I will not forget this experience. I rarely give five stars but this place earned it.

Met a couple of friends here for happy hour and we all had a great time with affordable food and drinks. We aren't beer drinkers, but there where plenty of other drink options available. Our beer drinking friends enjoyed their beers. All of the food we ordered was very good and everyone left happy campers. We will definitely go back.

Celebrating mother’s birthday so needed a wide variety of food - found it! Good food but a bit pricey. Steaks to burgers to lighter fare.
