    Ate there for our anniversary. They went the extra mile with service , flowers , rose petals. Gave us a small private room although the lighting was a little low. Great time!!!!

    Steak Lovers on the grill

    My husband and I came here for dinner on July 18,2025. We had a reservation and got seated within 5 minutes. We were fortunate enough to get Jadie as a server. She was attentive, friendly, and really just everything you hope to get with a server. We started with the fiesta cheese, fondue. It wasn't too spicy and had just the right amount of flavor. We chose Steak Lovers for our entrée and chose to grill it. Out of the different meats, we both agreed that the Garlic Pepper Steak was the best. We wrapped up the meal with S'mores fondue for dessert, which was delicious. I'll definitely come back with my kids to experience the dessert alone. We normally have decent size appetites, but could not finish everything. The restaurant does serve all ages, there was a reasonable amount of noise. Not too quiet, but we are also able to carry a conversation without having to yell. Overall good food and excellent service.

    Wonderful food, charming, attentive and caring service. Just had the pleasure of experiencing Happy Hour at The Melting Pot, courtesy of my daughter to celebrate my birthday. From the moment we checked in, the Host/Manager wished me Happy Birthday, our server wished me Happy Birthday, and there was even a signed card from the waitstaff already on our table. We enjoyed the Happy Hour special and chose 2 cheeses and a chocolate fondue - the Classic Alpine and Fiesta cheese fondues, and the Dark Chocolate dessert fondue. Each one was prepared at the table by our server, a caring, genuinely friendly (not an 'I'm in Customer Service' friendly) young woman (I didn't catch her name). Each fondue was wonderful, and there was more than enough 'dippers' for each one. I would highly recommend The Melting Pot and look forward to coming back.

    Our server Grace was phenomenal! She was very knowledgeable about the menu and provided an amazing experience! Graces hospitality was through the roof and we hope to see her again soon. Food was amazing and Grace also let us know we could request extra sides for the fondue! The Manager on duty was attentive and very professional!

    Vegan Cheese Fondue

    Five stars to this place simply because it's an experience more than a meal, and they offer that experience to vegans and non vegans! Huge props for that. This was the first fondue place I'd ever been to and it was really cool. The melted cheese with food to dip into it, and the chocolate fondue for dessert was perfection. Although it took three hours form start to finish, and you're paying quite a price, we had a blast and the service was really good. You have got to check out one of these types of restaurants!

    It's not bad food, but for the price and the amount of food we got, it wasn't worth it. Both of us left hungry.

    Rigatoni Braised local beef + black garlic-truffle butter + roasted local mushrooms + spinach +…read morepickled red onion + lemon crema. That is the description of what I ordered for their handmade fresh pasta rigatoni that I got. Let me just say that all these flavors that they put into one dish were absolutely amazing. I really did not think they needed to have the spinach and mushrooms. Because the lemon crema and the Gorgonzola cheese were absolute phenomenal the braze beef was just to die for. This is a very small restaurant and there's only so many tables to get. I was able to sit at the bar which Aisha was the bartender. He did an amazing job and really helped lead me to my order of ordering the rigatoni. I had a beer with dinner and I did not order dessert. If you need to go to the bathroom, there is a door that leads outside the restaurant to the bathroom the weight was a little bit long for it, and luckily a neighboring coworker was able to lead me to their bathroom. I highly recommend checking out this place just because of the handmade pasta, which was something of a unique taste because it was well worth the price

    First time in Boise, Idaho, visiting for the Boise Half Marathon. I ended up dining at Alavita…read moretwice -- once to carbo-load the night before my race, and again the day after as a recovery dinner. Alavita is an upscale Italian restaurant, and I'd recommend making reservations, especially for dinner. My first visit was with a reservation for one, while my second was a walk-in where I managed to snag patio seating. On my first visit, I started with the House-Baked Focaccia, which came with truffle-honey butter. The focaccia was light, fresh, and served pre-sliced. The honey and butter combination was absolutely divine and paired wonderfully with the bread. It honestly made me wonder why more Italian restaurants don't serve something similar. For my entrée, I ordered the daily special, which I believe was a cheese tortellini with shrimp and corn in a lemon garlic sauce. It was flavorful, deceptively filling, and paired well with the focaccia. While it wasn't the best pasta I've ever had, it was a satisfying and enjoyable pre-race meal. On my second visit, I started with the fennel and arugula salad, which featured fennel-apple slaw, pistachios, rehydrated cherries, lemon, olive oil, and shaved Parmesan. I particularly enjoyed the cherries and pistachios, which added nice sweetness and crunch. Not mind-blowing, but certainly good. For my entrée, I had to try the Rigatoni: braised local beef, black garlic-truffle butter, roasted local mushrooms, spinach, pickled red onion, lemon crema, and Grana Padano. I ordered it because so many reviews mentioned it. I don't eat beef very often, so this was a bit of a treat for me. The braised beef was tender and flavorful. Interestingly, my opinion of the dish changed as I ate it. Initially, I had it around a 3.5/5, but by the end it had climbed to a 4.5/5. This might sound strange, but I found that when I slowed down, closed my eyes for a bite or two, and really focused on the flavors, the dish came together much better. The richness of the braised beef, the garlic-truffle butter, and the mushrooms became much more noticeable, and I found myself appreciating the combination more and more with each bite. For me, it was one of those dishes that rewards slowing down and savoring it. Overall, I highly recommend Alavita for Italian food in Boise. The service was friendly, the food was thoughtfully prepared, and both meals left me satisfied. The lemon garlic shrimp tortellini special made for excellent pre-race fuel, and the rigatoni was a memorable post-race meal. I went on to finish 10th overall in the Boise Half Marathon despite rainy conditions and the challenges of running at a higher elevation than I'm used to, so I was certainly grateful for the quality food beforehand. Hope to be back the next time I'm in the Boise area. Visited June 2026.

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.
