    My favorite place in Boise. Excellent atmosphere and food. Live music. Weak mojitos but the tastiest I've ever had. The pad thai isn't the best. Try the voodoo fries and the tex mex veggie burger!

    The Duke is delicious, get the coleslaw (which has crumbly blue cheese).

    They will honor the awards at the reef, just not for a show that has cover over $10. If Albert would have checked he might have been rewarded in another way.

    PRO TIP; They don't honor rewards from Foursquare so don't bother trying to collect it.
