Truffle Parmesan Fries
Sophie V.

Switched from Canola Oil to Beef Tallow! That deserves a star all on its own!! It's not a relaxing atmosphere but it's not terribly loud either, it's a fun atmosphere for a smaller group. The hostess and our waitress were both great! Our kids enjoyed their Cheeseburgers and we all loved the Truffle Parmesan Fries with some Ranch. My husband had the Whiskey Bacon Burger and he said a solid 4.5/5 Stars. I had the Nashville Hot Chicken Salad and I'd give it 3.5/5 Stars, I wasn't starving so it did hit the spot. Thanks Sid's Garage! We will be back!

The food was really good and the servers were all very nice and welcoming. We had a great experience overall and everything tasted fresh and delicious. The only thing I would suggest is adding some background music because the restaurant felt a little quiet, but other than that everything was great. We'd definitely come back!

Drink menu

The food was really good. We loved how some of the food came in weird containers, it adds fun to your meal. We sat at the bar and the bartender was very friendly and attentive. We were so full from the appetizer and entree and didn't have room for a milkshake. But it gives us a reason to come back!! The milkshakes looked phenomenal.

Tempuraed green beans
Dani S.

I have been eye balling this joint for a hot minute! I have seen photos of thier over the top shakes and candied bacon. They have such a fun vibe so of course I wanted to celebrate my birthday here! Walking in, the music was loud! I love a chill vibe. I see my party sitting against the wall so I told the host in the front that I see my party. Our server did get drinks started for the others. He finally came back to check up on us. I got me a lemonade to sip on. Our last person showed up finally and we ordered dinner while she was looking over the menu. For dinner I got tempuraed green beans and candied bacon. The greens beans came in a shoe but they took the shoe away. My bacon was neatly hung and charred by a different server. I thought that was neat. The green beans were tasty! The batter did have good seasoning to it. I honestly wouldn't call the batter tempura. To me, tempura is light and airy. This batter was not. It had a thickness to it. Some of my friends didn't like the sauce that came with it but I enjoyed it! The bacon was very very very tasty! I love a great savory and sweet combo. I recommend the candied bacon for sure! For a fun joint, I am surprised they don't do anything for birthdays. My friend asked our server if they do ice cream or cake for birthdays and his response was "if you want to pay for it". Kinda tacky and such a great way to dampen the vibe. I served for many many years and I always made it a point to make the birthday person feel special. In today's case with my server, we didn't have the same ideals. If you're looking for a fun local joint to eat at that's loud and fun, Sid's is your joint. If you're looking to celebrate your special day than I probably would go somewhere else. I had such a fun time till my server made me feel like my birthday it wasn't important. I'm happy I got to try it out but I probably won't be back. I'd rather go somewhere where people feel special on their birthdays! Not just a tip at the end of their dining experience.

Truffle fries w/parmesan
Kristann U.

Finally tried Sids. Date night with the man (aka husband). Super cute little place. Service was fast & friendly. I had the Mac & Cheese...super yummy and gooey from all the cheeses. Definitely fills you up. Husband got the Whiskey burger w/truffle fries. Man oh man the beef patty is huge. Was wanting to try one of their shakes but our tummies were stuffed to the max...next time for sure!!

So I'm in Boise on a regular basis, and am always trying to make it to Sids Garage. Finally made it, and worth the wait. Extraordinary burger. The service was excellent! Will definitely return.

Doughnut grilled cheese
Cheri N.

Very early dinner, popped in around 4:00 PM with no reservation while shopping in the village. Party of 4 seated immediately. This was my second time eating at Sid's garage. The last time was at the Downtown location. The ambience of the village location is a little bit more closed off and segmented than the Downtown location. Overall, the restaurant seems smaller. The best seating was up against the wall in the high booths. Unfortunately, they pushed one small round and a square tiny table together to make a table for four. It was awkward and right by the exit for the kitchen, but we made the best of it. As for the food - fun burgers that taste great is my overall review. You can't go wrong with any of the burgers. Keep in mind, though that the patties are very thick . It's a lot of meat . If you like In-N-Out burgers with those thin patties, these are quite the opposite . Our favorite was actually not a burger. It was the donut grilled cheese with a side of tomato basil soup. It was different and definitely had a sweet kick to the donut bread. Also honorable mention to the the Parmesan cheese fries and a huge shout out to their dipping sauce. We enjoyed that sauce on both our fries and our burgers. It has a little bit of a vinegar sweetness to it with pepper that makes it all their own. As for prices for our party of four, the total bill was about $70. You can't eat anywhere for four people for much less. For example, five guys would run you about $15 a person. Keep in mind our tab did not include alcohol, we each ordered an entrée and shared an order of fries. Two waters and two soft drinks rounded out our meals. Know if you added in one of their fabulous shakes, that's gonna send you back about 15 bucks but for a special occasion, it's well worth it. For an everyday sit down meal while you're shopping in the village or a casual special occasion I highly recommend treating yourself to Sid's garage.

The French Onion Dip burger
Judi B.

Since it took a while for us to be acknowledged as we waited to be seated, it gave us time to take in the steam-punk and funky fun, loud environment. After we were seated by the kitchen, it took an extraordinary long time again to be acknowledged and served with drinks (the place wasn't too busy at the time at 11:30 am, Sunday morning), but after we were finally approached to start the process by our friendly server, things were paced quite nicely and steadily. The poor start to seating and service is what dropped this from a 5 to 4 rating. Burgers are whacky and different which makes Sid's unique. Many burgers come with candied bacon or interesting sauces, cheeses or flavor combinations you've never thought of. There are no combos here; if you want a side it's listed as an appetizer, so it will come out first, not with your burger (unless requested). I ordered the new burger, the French Onion Dip, which is a 1/2 Lb. Angus blend burger on a croissant, cheese and onion ring. It's rich and very different. I loved its richness, though would have appreciated some freshness like lettuce, tomato or something to cut down the richness a bit. However, I ordered French onion so I it's gluttonous as it should be. Hubby had the Steakhouse burger after complaining he couldn't find anything that appealed to him (he's very picky) without the onion marmalade. He rated his burger a 9 out of 10, so it had to be exceptional. Drinks are quickly refilled and the Loco Fries were absolute perfection...crispy, plentiful and heavily seasoned without tasting like it. The only downside is the the fry sauce didn't wow, but the fries don't really need anything to dip with because they are that good! There's a 2.5% up charge if you pay with card, just an FYI.

It's a good thing calories don't count on vacation. This place was so fun. We started with the candied bacon which was highly recommended by our Server. They hit the rosemary with a torch tableside. We each had a burger. I had the "208" burger with Brie, fig jam, Granny Smith apples, balsamic glaze with spring mix. Apples on a burger was interesting and it worked. The burger was delicious. My favorite dining partner had the "French Onion" burger on a croissant with Gruyère cheese and onion rings. We spilt a truffle parm fries which were crispy and delicious. For desert, we shared a "Mile High" milkshake with biscoff cookie butter and crumble, vanilla ice cream and carmel. It was amazing! The service was fantastic and the vibe is so fun. We will definitely be back next time we are in Boise.

Booze milkshake with Horchata in it.

This location is doing a bit of a remodel so the alcohol drinks were limited, so we ordered monstrous booze-filled milkshakes. The flavors were amazing but our stomachs fought back a few hours later, so beware! The burgers were wonderful! Cooked perfectly and soooo good! I loved their fries too. The team took great care of our party of 8 and we all had a great time just eating and gathering together in this fun spot. It's a great option when shopping the village and need a break ... and a burger!

Celiac friendly? like separate cooking area (fryers and cutting boards and everything)?

Great question - we take Celiac very seriously… we do cook our burgers in a separate pan for Celiac… all others cooked on our flat-top.… 

Is there a kids menu?

Indeed there is - kids cheeseburger and chicken tenders.

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.
