The long awaited opening of El Guero #2 is done, sorta. First target was August, second target was October, actual Grand Opening is 15 November. They are in the middle of a soft opening right now at 3055 E Fairview Ave, Meridian. Get your Mariscos on, soon before the currently 3/4 busy location gets packed. I totally recommend the Mojarra Frita and the quesobirria tacos made with chicken.

It was my very first time here. The place is nice it has an open setting. The bathrooms are clean. Our server was nice polite and she answered our questions to the best of her knowledge. The presentation of the food is great. I had the shrimp cocktail and it was good I had to add chille to give it more flavor. The Medusa it's actually pretty good my daughter loved it. The carne asada plate was delicious the meat was tender and very good flavor. The big shrimp that is covered in some red spicy sauce was too spicy for me. I had a mi chelada with a modelo and I loved it a bit pricey but it was good. Over all we all enjoyed our food and each other and the drinks were pretty good.

Food was good but service could've been a lot better. The pricing was on the higher end so yeah. The shrimp plate had more onions than shrimp...a bit unfortunate. Will we come back? Not sure.

Service.... Emily was fantastic and took great care of our large party of 16!…read more She was pleasant and friendly. Patient too!

Tonight a group of 16 met for an early dinner and reserved the Merlo room well in advance. While…read morethe setting is beautiful, I will not recommend this room for a large group. The room absorbed no sound whatsoever, and I felt like I was at a concert trying to hold a conversation. Service was pretty good, although as someone who drinks a lot of water, there was no one refilling my water, I had to ask and I had to wait, but I get not being a priority when drinks will get them $12+ each. Dining as a group definitely creates a longer experience, from first drink orders, to apps, entrees and then the dreaded checks if you are splitting. Be prepared to wait a while. The food within our group was overwhelmingly so delicious! One guest ordered a ribeye med-well and it was served to him med-rare. Quite a difference. Food temps and doneness seems to be a continuing struggle for these cooks. Do they have a meat thermometer? Other than that, food was pretty amazing and had beautiful presentation. The women's restroom leaves a lot to be desired. Only 2 very generic stalls, 2 sinks when I feel the restaurant is a good size. As an upscale place, there was nowhere to primp make up or hair, no shelf, additional mirror or a place to set a purse. Do your business, wash your hands and get out was the feeling. Although I will not dismiss this very lovely restaurant, I don't think personally I will be back. I will have to lean on "there are so many other choices" excuse.

This evening I had to make an unexpected change of venues as the venue we had planned to go this…read moreevening for social group weekly meeting of about 30 people unexpectedly closed for the evening. I started to panic knowing the group would be coming from all parts of Boise and they would not know before trying to arrive there that it was closed. Well Kona Grill and the Manager Alexis came to the rescue I walked into Kona, explained the dilemma and without hesitation Alexis said I think we can accommodate our group. And accommodate us they did. I have to give a big, big, BIG shout out to Patrick and Trevor. They were masterful as our servers. The orders were taken quickly and brought out in a very timely way. Big groups I know can be taunted but Patrick and Trevor rode to the occasion. They were efficient, caring and totally in command all evening in taking and bringing out the orders and never complaining. Both were very pleasant, Professional and right there if we needed anything. It was a great evening and totally happy Kona could accommodate our group and as usual the food and happy hour appetizers were great

Another awful experience. Great service, Annie did the best she could with the hand she was dealt…read more The kitchen and management are a joke. It took 45 minutes to get a kids meal out, appetizer didn't come out until after most of the entrees did, and as much as our server tried to hurry our meals up (watched her go back numerous times), nothing worked. How this place is still open is beyond me. I have finally had enough, and will not be back. Hopefully, some other restaurant comes in and kills it, great location. Don't waste your time or money. One Hospitality Group, might wanna work on your management training.

Coa Del Mar was a top 10 dining experience…read more The wait staff was friendly, prompt and attentive. The decor was gorgeous. The meals for myself and my wife were delicious. From the amazing calamari appetizer, to the delicious huckleberry martini to the great variety of fish on the menu, to the perfect halibut meal and excellent coffee and doughnut dessert. We loved being at Coa Del Mar and it will definitely be our go to spot for a fine dining experience.

Coa Del Mar is a beautiful waterfront restaurant with a sophisticated atmosphere and a swanky bar…read morearea that's perfect for cocktails before dinner. The wine list is extensive, and the menu offers plenty of appealing options. We started with the oysters topped with raspberry mignonette, which ended up being my favorite part of the meal. The combination was fresh, unique, and incredibly well executed. For our entrees, we ordered the Mahi Mahi with lobster and the Orange Roughy. While my Mahi Mahi was slightly overcooked, the drawn butter from the lobster helped bring it back to life and added great flavor. I wasn't a fan of the pineapple accompaniment, which tasted canned rather than fresh, but the sauce served alongside the dish was excellent. The Orange Roughy was the standout entree and definitely the better choice between the two. It was flaky, buttery, fresh, and cooked perfectly. Overall, Coa Del Mar delivers a gorgeous setting, excellent cocktails, friendly service, and some truly memorable dishes. While not every element of the meal was perfect, the oysters and Orange Roughy alone would have me coming back.

We had a family get together here. Decent, not great, IPA's…read more Food was solid. I had the salmon with garlic mash and some sautéd zucchini. Everyone seemed to enjoy the experience. We'd come again

It's been a few years since I have been to Sockeye. It's getting warmer out which means it's patio…read moreweather time! My girlfriends and I decided we needed to get some grub and enjoy the patio weather today so we all picked Sockeye to hit up for our monthly outing. I arrived first and the patio area was pretty chill. Was sat at a great table and hung out till the rest of my friends showed up. My two friends and I did get to peep out the menu for a bit. Our last friend who is notoriously late allowed is some extra time to really check out the whole menu without feeling rushed. Happy hour was going on so of course the apps were calling to me. I can make a meal off of multiple appetizers. We finally got food ordered when our last friend showed up. I got the salmon and shrimp crab cakes. I have left Sockeye hungry before after having dinner here so I also added a side of chili just in case. I was ready to eat! My crab and shrimp cakes came out looking fabulous. They were fried a nice golden brown. So crispy on the outside and savory on the inside. I love the aoili that was on top, it added an extra flair to the crab cake. 3 were in an order and it was the perfect amount. I smashed all 3 and they were so good! I did have a couple bites of the chili. It was hearty in meat and beans. Rich in flavor and filling. I'm looking forward to adding this chili to some fries with some cheese on top for dinner later. I know it's going to be so good. Our server did a great job tonight. Despite the fact that she had to wait till our last friend to show up, our server was on top of it. Our water was always filled, she checked up on us and always made sure we were happy. As a past server, it's hard to manage time between tables when the whole party isn't there. Our server didn't have that issue today. My girlfriends and I had a great time. We enjoyed the food, enjoyed the atmosphere and was happy that we got to do this all on the patio. I always forget that there's a Sockeye by us off of Hill Rd. I will have to check that one out soon to grab more crab cakes. I do look foward to coming back to this location and enjoying another round of appetizers on the patio here.
