    I have seen this food truck on my Facebook so of course I had to try it! Today it was at the Fred Meyers off Glenwood and Chinden which is down the road from my house. You can't miss this food truck! It's vibrant in color. I did try to find a menu online but I couldn't locate one. I did finally get to check out the menu once I got here. Pretty self explanatory, fish and chips. They also have clam chowder as an option but unfortunately they won't have it till February. Bummer since soup is so perfect in this cold weather. Today I ordered just the fish with a side of slaw. The fish came out beautifully! They were fried to a nice golden color. You get 3 pieces of cod. Biting into the fish, it's crunchy and flaky. But one you start hitting the middle of the fish, the batter isn't as crispy. I wish they would sprinkle a little salt after it's fried. It needed just a hint of salt to it. They do give you a side of tarter sauce. It does add more flavor but you can only slap so much tarter sauce on it. I'm going to take the rest home and just try lemon and salt flakes on it. The coleslaw looked fresh. It came with a side of sesame dressing. It was good and clean tasting. The crew was really nice. I did have an ordering mis hap. They were kind and tired to fix it. My friend and I just ended up resolving the issue ourselves. Overall it was good and I'm glad I got to try it.

    Fish and chips, one tarter and one fry sauce

    When I went to the food truck there was no line and was able to order quickly. It was around 1:45 so did not expect a line at that hour. Ordered just the 3 piece cod and chips. Did not have to wait long, maybe 5-7 minutes. The food was hot and fresh when I arrived home 5 minutes later. Fries I think are frozen but not sure. They were just okay. The fish was excellent, golden and flakey. Three nice size pieces. A little pricey for me at 18.00 but good for a treat once in a while. One small container of tarter is included which is a bit ridiculous for 3 large pieces of fish. Definitely not enough. All in all give it a try.

    Complete ripoff $18 for 3 little pieces of fish and they charge extra for tarter sauce. Overpriced

    Service was expedient as could be expected but, did take about 20-39 minutes. Food truck so, not much ambience.

    The place looked pretty decent for a pub-style restaurant serving food and beer. Met James, who was…read morethe morning bartender. He was very informative about where to go and places to check out in Boise. I ordered one of the local beers and their flagship meal, the Santa Maria Tri Tip Sandwich. As you can see by looking at the photos, the tri-tip was cooked to perfection. It had tomatoes, poblano, and chimichurri sauce on it to add to the flavors of the tri-tip. The bread consistency was great, not too soggy, and with a great crispy texture. I wish they had spread the tri-tip out more to make sure every bite was being celebrated. I also ordered the mac and cheese as the side per the instructions of the bartender, James. Let me say that was one of the best mac and cheeses that I have ever had. Truly amazing creamy texture and full of rich flavor. Everything melted in your mouth. Definitely worth it. I eventually ended up talking to a fellow bar sitter, and he ended up being the co-owner of the place, TJ. He also filled me in on the places to go and, most definitely, the places to travel to, to experience great beer. He was refreshing to talk to since most people don't have the passion for beer that we both represent. I would highly recommend this place for the staff that is there the solid pub style restaurant that they have created. Super easy and relaxed kinda of place.

Spoiler alert--It is all that! Our server shared that it is a mainstay on the menu and how it is presented changes with the season. For our visit it was served with a rice salad.

Great build out, quiet--great place to have good dinner conversation. Service was outstanding. Wine list was solid. My only regret is that I wish I would have gone with a larger party so we could split dishes and try more. I can't wait to go back.

Here's some food review: The steak tartar lacked salt. But the flavor and quality of the beef was good. The duck fat potato didn't come with the trout caviar on top. It was crispy on the outside. Mush on the inside. The sauce lacked salt and needed more of a flavor punch. The curry snapper needed more curry taste but the dish was cooked very well. The duck confit was just okay in my opinion. Again, lacked salt again. The duck was fall of the bone tender but was placed on top of a miclx of mushy lentils and salad, not my jam. The ribeye was cooked well but in my opinion, a steak shouldn't be presented already cut. Would I go again? Yes. I'd take a date for a few cocktail and a nice meal. But did it wow me? Service wise. Yes. Food wise, meh.

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.

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.

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.

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!

    I moved to right down State St from the Local, so my parents and I have been here twice now…read more The first time was amazing food, but the service wasn't great, super rude and impatient. The reason we went back the second time was because we remembered how good the food was and how nearby it was too. The second time the food was still really good, but the service was HORRENDOUS. Brittney was such a ***** to me and my parents, my mom especially. My mom was complimenting her and something about the food, and she straight up just walked away in the middle of my mom still talking. And no it wasn't busy. It was towards the end of the night, there was maybe 2-3 other customers there. She acted like we were bothering her the whole time. Then once she'd leave us would just stand up at the bar flirting with the other guy working there and just ignore anyone else. Then on top of all of that, my dad tells me she added $10 onto her tip! FRAUD!!! I've attached photos as evidence. My dad still tipped her even though she was so rude and disrespectful. But apparently that wasn't enough for her and added $10 onto the total. I cannot believe that. And my dad tells me it was difficult to get his $10 back after calling and talking to the manager. He didn't get the name of the manager but he said that they were just making excuses and saying oh but she's our best server. Obviously not! Saying things like oh she must've just been really busy. Again, we were there when it was dead and about to close soon, no it was not busy. It's almost as if this business does this type of thing often because there was no alarm from the manager, then finally after much deliberation decided to send back the $10. Absolutely ridiculous. No : "I'm so sorry here's a free meal on us", or atleast a "here's a coupon or gift card for next time you come in", nothing. This is the type of thing that gets people closed down. We should report to the BBB. This is insane. And to not be offered anything to make it right is what really gets me. Like do they not want us to ever come back??? Not to mention tell everyone we know, etc. Yikes! And this is what we get for wanting to support local businesses instead of going to the big chains. What a bummer.
