This restaurant is always a hit for us — food, service, ambiance, etc. It is a special occasion place for us.

Great food great service highly recommend to friends and family

This place never lets us down. ever. Great food there is almost nothing on the menu I will not eat that is not amazing. Tina our server is always a delight, never intrusive, great with advice. There is a reason this is one of the best places in Boise to eat great food.

Best burrata!! Papardelle is delicious too! Always great food there.

Best of the best! Tasty and creative. Not your mom and pop Italian restaurant but every bit as good!

Food and service was spectacular. Our night out was perfect.

Our family wanted to select a place that we hadn’t tried before. We were celebrating a couple of birthdays!
Loved the ambience, menu, decor, music, presentation and our server, Michaela, was fabulous! I’m really sorry if I didn’t spell her name correctly!
Thoroughly enjoyed everything and I can’t wait to return!

Angel Pasta and Spicy Lamb entrees were quite enjoyable...in addition, loved the outdoor seating and amazing service!

One of our favorites, Mikeala and whole team are exceptional.
Thanks

Overall we had a very nice time. The food was good the staff was friendly, and our waiter was very pleasant and knowledgeable. We were a bit disappointed that even with a reservation we had to wait 30 minutes for our table.

great energetic atmosphere...delicious food....excellent cocktails!

Every time I go to Boise I eat here. Never disappointed. Need I say more?

One of my favorite spots in Boise and it did not disappoint on my 1 yr anniversary with the hubs. Excellent food, wine and service!

House made fresh pasta.
The eggplant parmesan was perfection !
Service was great.

Mediocre at best. Artichoke heart appetizer was so small It was embarrassing to our server to bring it out. Pasta was just soso. I love the place just won’t be dining there. Will go for drinks though.

The host was point blank rude and it was frustrating to see how one person could come close to destroying the mood of our special night. Other than that, the evening was pleasant. As always Alavita has the best wine selection, but I was surprised with the quality of food dropping.

Definitely dissapointed, the food was dry and not good. I will not return

Here for my bd. Thoroughly enjoyed. So personable. Will go again!

Alavita served us amazing dishes. They were so delicious and perfectly cooked and seasoned. We will definitely be back. Our one complaint is that we sat without water or service for 10 minutes after we were seated. Once served the waiter was nice and served us the most delectable food. We will go back because the food was divine.

Great food and great service, will come back when in Boise!

Best food, ambiance and service in Boise. Each person working there is genuine, kind, poised and fun. Very well done, Alavita! My wife and I have named this place “our favorite spot” since our first date. Thank you for your top notch establishment!

Amazing as always. One of the best restaurants we have ever been to right here in our home town. This has been our favorite restaurant since it opened. The kitchen, service staff and bar compliment each other perfectly and create an awesome experience. We have never had a disappointing meal, drink or experience. I highly recommend making this a regular outing. Seasonal menus and specials will always create new things to try. That is if you can resist not ordering your favorite meal every time.

Outstanding meal, attentive service, nice environment

It was great! Service was prompt and pleasant as usual and food is always excellent. We got to show a new friend a favorite spot and she loved it!

One of Boise's best for sure.

Delish. I have eaten there many times and it it always good.

Great evening! Service was good a tiny bit slow but our waiter was fun! Food outstanding as usual!!

Greeted by the owner, waitstaff was nice, helpful with drink and dinner recommendations. We had our 6 year old and they made a special pasta for her. Overall great!

Service was incredible. My dish was not warm but both our waiter and general manager jumped all over the situation and took a quick moment to heat my entree and it was awesome. Always a wonderful experience.

This is the second time we've been to Alavita with the same result. We wanted to love it more than we actually did. Some of the food items were hits, some were misses. We ordered appetizers pork belly, grilled artichokes and a charcuterie board - all were excellent. I had the salmon which was overcooked. The best two entrees (out of 8) were the mushroom risotto and the steak. The rest of the dishes were not that memorable, including the "special" black ravioli. The server was friendly but perhaps a bit too busy. We may try it again because it's a lovely room and we want to support local restaurants.

Great food, great drinks, great service

Very enjoyable.

A terrific restaurant experience.
We’d definitely return often if we lived in Boise, but we were visiting.

The food and service was amazing - can’t wait to go again!

We had a great birthday dinner at Alavita. The food is amazing.

My husband and I came here on date night and had a great experience! Happily adding it to our rotation now. We had the lobster ravioli which was to die for, I think it was the best ravioli I've ever had. We really wanted to order scallops as an appetizer but they were out of them.
We got the Charchuterie board (and added the cheese) to start and we were underwhelmed by it, the cheeses and meats were bland and nothing special. It needs some kind of jam or honey at least.
We also got a Cesar which was ok but we wouldn't get it again.
Our server Casey was awesome. He was personable, knowledgable and we enjoyed him.
Highly recommend this place, we will be back!

Bob was our incredible server. The dining experience continues to be #1 for us in Boise. The ambiance, the fantastic menu, the service. It is the best in Boise!❤️

The food is consistently delicious. Nice cocktails and wine selections. Great for a date or an evening out with friends.

Our favorite place in Boise

Continues to be my favorite place to dine in Boise! Excellent food and service in a smaller unique setting!
