About the restaurant
ÀLAVITA is all about fresh pasta and local ingredients—from Agnolotti to Tortellini to Garganelli, Linguini to Pappardelle—created freshly every day using Northwest flour and local eggs. A restaurant whose name means “to life,” (Well actually two words– ‘alla’ ‘vita’ –that we put together to create one) ÀLAVITA is a great place for celebrating life with good friends and family alike. We offer craft cocktails, open kitchen and a warm, welcoming setting in the heart of Downtown Boise.

About the restaurant
We are excited to bring our scratch-made Southern food and libations to Boise, ID in Fall 2019! Since 2000, Tupelo Honey continues to inspire a revival of Southern food and traditions rooted in the Carolina Mountains we call home. We use fresh, responsibly-sourced and “forever free” ingredients to bring a scratch-made taste of the South everywhere we go.

Came here on a Wednesday night for a date. I couldn't have been more happier with the service we received. Our waiter/bartender was very attentive. Old Fashion was delicious, the cauliflower was amazing and our main dishes where great. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect evening at Red Feather. Many thanks!

Excellent food, lovely atmosphere. The staff were nice but not good. They didn’t check in, they didn’t clear dirty dishes/glasses, they didn’t see if we needed anything else. They are friendly and rushed but not sure what they’re doing. Great food & atmosphere, some customer service training would go a very long way.

About the restaurant
On the back alley of the hotel, beyond the sparkle of the Avery restaurant, the more adventurous can imbibe against the backdrop of Boise’s oldest Brunswick bar at Tiner’s Alley. From happy hour to late-night, warm up with a game of pool by the fireplace and enjoy expertly crafted cocktails and a menu of elevated English pub favorites. Valet is service is available for $10 flat fee, per car.

The crispy Brussels sprouts are the best in town in my opinion. They drink menu is the same as the Avery and I’m not mad about it. Will be coming back for sure.

Born from a shared love of margaritas and a belief that tacos always make sense. Pig Latin is equal parts exploration and discovery. You'll experience both familiar and new flavors that all lead back to rich Latin culture interpreted by curious American travelers.
