We really enjoyed the food and drinks at Therapy! The cocktails were interesting and made with fresh ingredients. The food had a variety of flavorful and creative tastes.

The manager and chef were extremely accommodating at this restaurant! They were able to include vegan options on the menu for us. We tried the pumpkin soup, fresh rigatoni, and zucchini risotto, all of which were delicious. The bar/lounge area is also a great spot for drinks. We were advised to inform them about our vegan diet when making a reservation, and they went above and beyond to provide more vegan options for us. Overall, it was a wonderful experience!

In a word, underwhelmed. After reading many reviews about dishes being too salty, I would have expected a lighter hand on the salt. But both dishes we ate were much too salty to enjoy (pan roasted sea bass and wagyu culotte). The waiter was efficient but never smiled maybe he had something going on and he didn’t seem like he really wanted to be there. Decor and atmosphere were nice. Music was at just the right volute for conversation which we appreciated. Probably won’t return. Voir le carte

I took my mother here for her 64th birthday. She lives in Portland and has high standards for food, creativity, and presentation. I was not disappointed with our Boise cuisine scene. She absolutely loved it! I was afraid it would be crowded during TreeFort week, but we were fortunate to get a table and the experience was outstanding. The timing of the meal was perfect, with each course served just right. The food was hot and beautifully plated. The entire experience was delightful. The service was exceptional! Our server and all the staff were friendly, relaxed, and attentive. We were very impressed. Thank you for making my mother's birthday dinner so special.

Our first time to dine at The Lively. My son, who gave us the gift certificate, told us ahead of time that a good friend of his mentioned the food is salty so make sure we ask for ‘light salt’. Needless to say, we forgot. We ordered the grilled octopus for our appetizer which was very tasty. For our main course we both ordered the wagyu culotte with a side of pommes puree and arugula salad. Both sides were good but the wagyu was very salty. I kept drinking water after every bite just to get through the meal. For dessert we went for the crème brûlée and thought it was very good. All in all, we enjoyed our meal and would go back, but have to remember to ask for ‘light salt’.

I recently had a delightful meal at The Lively. The food was absolutely fantastic! The dishes were beautifully prepared, and the flavors were outstanding. I particularly enjoyed the Swardfish, which was rich in flavor and balanced. However, I do have a small piece of feedback regarding the service. While the staff were friendly and attentive, they seemed a little over-eager at times. Plates were cleared quite quickly, even when one guest was still eating. Additionally, we were frequently asked if everything was alright, which felt slightly disruptive to the conversation. It would be fantastic if the service could strike a balance between attentive and allowing guests to enjoy their meal at t... Voir le carte
