House-made tortillas packed with rich, flavorful chicken tinga and melted mozzarella, laid over a smooth black bean purée and finished with a vibrant salsa verde. Every bite hits, creamy lime crema, fresh pico de gallo, crumbly queso fresco, pickled onions, and a touch of micro cilantro that brings it all together. It's bold, comforting, and layered with flavor in the best way. Chef Daniel is clearly doing something right here. This new addition isn't just a dish, it's an experience. Definitely worth the visit.

They don't take reservations so if it's busy, there will be a wait often. If you're open to sitting outside, you will get seated fast faster. This restaurant is right up there with Percy for me!

Today I decided to order ahead, but I accidentally scheduled my pickup an hour later than I intended because my laptop was set to a different time zone. I called the restaurant, explained what happened, and they were incredibly kind and accommodating. Even though the restaurant was absolutely packed when I arrived, they were able to get my order ready much earlier than originally scheduled. I really appreciated them going out of their way to help me. The food was fantastic! The Honey Badger pizza was delicious, the Everynight salad was even better. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and worth every bite. Between the outstanding customer service and the excellent food, this place definitely earned five stars. If I'm ever back in the area, I'll absolutely be coming here again!

My sister and I had the tuna, and it was maybe the best tuna sandwich I have ever had. The bread, the ingredients- chefs kiss! My nieces had the pulled pork which they said was the best they ever had. My dad ordered the Italian- he usually never orders a sandwich like that and he RAVED about it. Lastly, the huckleberry lemonade - I can't say enough. These people are doing everything right. I loved the cute interior and ambiance. It's definitely a small spot but they work so quickly and keep people moving. I was so impressed. I wish we had one in Denver!

The mix of Thai and Burmese dishes really sets it apart from other places in town. The food was overall really flavorful dishes like khao soi papaya salad and other northern Thai dishes , and everything tastes fresh and well-prepared.

The restaurant itself is on the smaller side, which gives it a cozy vibe, but it can feel a little tight and busy during peak hours, so it's not the best place for big groups unless you plan ahead. Service was friendly and welcoming, and food came out pretty quickly even when it was busy.

It was pretty good but not like any banh mi I've had at all. No pickled veggies and the sandwich bread was a far cry from a banh mi baguette. Great bread though! I just thought the name was very misleading and it would've been better to just call it a massaman curry sandwich. I really liked the spiced yam slices, but I felt like the peanut butter almost overpowered the yam sometimes. Could've been lighter on the PB. I ordered the combo meal which was supposed to be a 1/2 sandwich plus a side. If the sandwich portion I got was only a half, then the full size must be huge. I kind of suspect I got a full sandwich. I had the beet salad for my side. It was tasty and fresh, and also pretty sizeable. The staff were friendly and enthusiastic. The wait time for food was reasonable given that they seemed busy.

I came here for a late lunch around 2 pm after arriving in Boise. They weren't crowded at this point but business wasn't dead either. My waitress was very friendly. Inside has a lived-in, intimate feel, but it was pretty dark, so much that I wasn't sure they were actually open as I was opening the door. I had the French dip sandwich with a side of tomato basil soup. The sandwich was delicious and tasted homemade in the best way. The "meat" of the sandwich was seitan. I don't THINK it was a perfect meat replica (but I've never had a real French dip), but it was very flavourful. I loved the flavour and the thick cut of their bread, but it didn't have much structure and fell apart easily as I was eating which made the sandwich very messy. The tomato basil soup was a little different. It was slightly creamy but brothy and a little chunky - not a smooth puree. Again, it tasted great and was nice and light, which was a good contrast to the very rich sandwich. It was a little slow, especially considering they weren't that busy. I didn't really mind since I wasn't on a schedule, but this is something to be aware of - don't come here for a quick meal. Not cheap, but worth it for the quality.

The next day when we were departing, she offered it to me for my drive home. The service was ok, it wasn't the friendliest. Prices were a little steep. If I lived nearby, I would come back and give another try.

So for my birthday, I decided that we should hit up The James for dinner. I had made a reservation for a patio table a couple days ahead of schedule. I really wanted to sit outside with the family and enjoy our meal. Of course the day of my birthday, the weather was windy and cooler. I called the restaurant to see if we couple l could possibly dine inside. The gentleman that helped me over the phone wasn't really friendly but he assured me that dining inside shouldn't be an issue. We had a cute table reserved for us inside. It was pretty chill when we came in. A few people at the bar and another table enjoying their meal. The last time my friends and I were in, it was so busy. I actually appreciate how chill it was tonight. Nothing like enjoying my family and our meal in a calm space. We got some food ordered. We started off with some wings, clam chowder and zuppa tuscono soup. A pepperoni pizza for my husband and I. My daughter got the French dip sammy. I planned on having a little bit of my daughter's sandwich. I have to make sure it's tasty! The wings came out first. They were cooked perfectly! Crispy on the outside but the chicken wing was still tender. The buffalo sauce and ranch were in dipping cups on the side. We all had a few and then soups were dropped off. My husband's clam chowder was money. It was so good! Clams and potatoes through out each bite. My daughter's zuppa was very hearty and spicy. I love the kale in the soup. I had a couple bites but the heat was becoming a little too much for me. Our pizza was hot right out the oven. The cheese was perfectly melty. Plenty of pepperoni slices on the pizza. I appreciate the fact that the crust isn't crazy thick. It's thinner so you're not eating a tone of bread. The crust is crispy on the outside and chewy in the middle. The sauce is not overwhelming in herbs. This joint seriously has some of the best pizza in town! Each slice I had tonight was fantastic! My daughter enjoyed her sammy. I didn't get a chance to snag a bite. I was too busy tearing up our pizza. I did snag a few fries and these folks know how to produce a great fry. We didn't get the gorgonzola fries this time but it will be a must have the next time we hit this joint up. It's been a hot minute since I have had them and I still daydream about them. Our sweet server got me birthday dessert. Chocolate cake with raspberry sauce on it. It was devine. I couldn't tell if the cake was flourless. It was really dense like it was but I didn't mind. It was still so good. I enjoyed the raspberry sauce that came on it. Since the cake was so dense, the raspberry sauce added some brightness to it. As full as I was, I had to make sure my birthday dessert was finished. I'm a sucker for anything sweet no matter how full I am. Tonight's dining experience was great. Our server was sweet and delightful. Our food was killer good. My dessert was banger. And the vibe was chill. I honestly couldn't have asked for a better dinner to celebrate my birthday. I look forward to coming back, sitting on the patio and vibing out while enjoying our food.

Getting that out of the way, they are about to do a massive renovation and totally transform the space. A quick chat with the manager I learned a lot about the plans for this restaurant and it's going to be incredible and I'm so happy that it is a part of the black moon family because man do they know how to make a good sandwich. You can pick up a coffee right next-door at broadcast coffee, the same people run it. In fact, the two suites are connected through a back entrance. I am happy with how this place currently is, but I am even more excited for the renovation and reopening. Yes, they only are serving lunch hours right now, but as they expand and grow and re-launch in the coming months, this is going to be an excellent addition to the Boise community. I ordered the turkey pesto, toasted without mustard and it was delicious. It has sun-dried tomatoes pesto turkey mayonnaise served on a delicious house made bread. I would recommend to a friend, check them out.

Anesso, annex in Italian, opened next to Broadcast coffee, a business with the same owner hence the…read moreclever annex name, yesterday for "very soft" launch as the owner described it.   We are fans of the owner's sibling eatery, Black Moon in Garden City, for pizza, salad, baked goods and coffee and we enjoy Broadcast for coffee too, so we were following news of Anesso and went yesterday, 5-13-25, for opening day.  Perfeto! For us at least, with a menu of maybe half a dozen Italian themed sandwiches using ciabatta or focacci, that is baked at Black Moon, in options for omnivore to vegetarians (roughly $12 - $15) and four salads and if you've enjoyed the great salads at Black Moon, you know these salads (roughly $7.50 - $9) will be too. My husband and I discovered Black Moon in early December 2023, not long after it opened, when it was not yet well known but we knew as soon as it was, it would be super popular and busy. Yep, that is true now. We think the same will be so for Anesso, with lines out the door once people know it is open for business. So a tip is go now to be "the first kid on your block" to try it without crowds. The only drawback for us is it is in downtown Boise and not closer to our house, so it is roughly 35 minutes from our front door to Anesso's counter, assuming we can find parking once we arrive, but it is so worth it for these sandwiches. Our plan is to eat our way through the menu.   CURRENT HOURS: Open M - F from 11a to 3p as they continue to work through new business stuff and then they plan to expand hours.  We arrived maybe 12:30'ish to find no line, we were surprised by that, but we hear it had been a busy hour before that and as soon as we ordered out sandwich to share, four others lined up behind us.  THE DRILL. Order at the counter from the digital menu handing over head that features half a dozen'ish sandwiches, all on their house baked focaccia or ciabatta with options for omnivores and vegetarians.  (The size is easily shareable and if you tell them you plan to do that, they will cut and wrap each half separately.)  They are still waiting on whatever certificate it is they need from the city to offer inside dining, the tables and chairs are stacked against the wall to be ready, so it is take-away only right now. Conveniently located adjacent to Cheri Buckner-Webb park, the urban park with the big pink tree sculpture, there are tables there to eat at or we were invited to take our sandwich next door to eat it inside Broadcast and since it was raining, we did that and enjoyed Broadcast's Americano with it. THE EATS: Our choice yesterday was to share the mortadella sandwich, with mortadella cut whisper thin as it should be, before piling it on the sandwich with house made pistachio pesto, to echo the pistachios in the mortadella, stracciatella cheese, arugula and pickled shallots on bread with a great chew and sturdy enough to hold up to the ingredients ($14.85).  As 'bonus', we have it on good authority of another happy Anesso customer eating inside Broadcast that the porchetta sandwich is the best he has ever had. ACCESSIBILITY: Level in off the sidewak / patio out front and all on one floor. Order counter is at accessible height. Without tables inside, there is lots of floor space for a wheelchair user to get to and from counter. I hope they'll continue that and ensure their tables are placed for ADA access needs and since they have done that at both Broadcast and Black Moon, it seems they will do it here too. NO PHONE NUMBER: This is true for Black Moon too but Black Moon has a website. Anesso doesn't, they use their insta page but Yelp requires a web address to post this and they will not accept the insta address. So I've inserted Black Moon, their sister, web page.
