    5 Iconic Boise Eats
    Jun 11 2024

    Boise is becoming a food city, and yes it's more than potatoes. You have your deep-fried finger steaks, your ice cream potatoes, your crispy fries. Delicious, every one. But here in the City of Trees we are blessed with long-term establishments that boast their own legends — the stalwarts that have fed generation after generation of hungry folks. These five don’t constitute an exhaustive list by any means, but if you’re in search of Boise menu icons, these are a fine place to start.
