Westside Drive In - American restaurant in Boise - 1929 W State St, USA

Love the vibe The drive through was smooth and fast! The staff was super friendly as they took my order and then filled it. They all had smiles and were very pleasant to deal with This place has one of the best milkshakes I’ve ever had AND their curly fries with fry sauce is to die for. Only thing: ask for two fry sauces … you’ll thank me

Always great food, this Boise staple is outstanding in its quality of food and service. I always over order, and this time was no exception! A "Daddy O burger" with large. fry. Enough to feed four people, but I didn't share! Love the westside!

While driving through Boise I heard about this place and had to go check it out!!!!! OMG was it amazing! The food tasted fantastic the old school feel was amazing. You have to eat here and try this amazing food! The menu is stupid massive but the food is massively good! Even the potato ice cream was on point! I highly recommend this place!

Great old fashioned diner with fantastic food. Definitely recommend the finger steaks and Monte Christo. For dessert, ya gotta go for the Idaho Ice Cream Potato. We sat outside to eat which is not something we do at this time of year in TX where we're from.

Sooooo good! We went based on a co-workers recommendation and they weren't wrong. The Drive-in is also featured on Diners, Drive-isn, and Dives. We ordered fried zucchini and it was yummy! I got the Cuban sandwich with fries and devoured it - sooo good! I'm picky about a Cuban sandwich and this one is legit, Cuban approved. My husband got the Guy recommended Famous Daddy-O burger and I couldn't believe he could fit it in his mouth, it was HUGE! He loved it! Our friend ordered the cajun burger and cleaned his plate. He later said that was one of the best burgers he's ever had. Needless to say, we loved it and will be back!

One of Boise’s oldest institutions, Westside Drive In is whipping up incredible food with a quintessential retro vibe. The menu is packed with all kinds of meals, it can be hard choosing what to get! I had to try the Finger Steaks ($13.69), dubbed “Boise’s Best.” One bite and I can attest to that statement. The basket came generously piled with these golden beauties on top of crispy, crunch tater tots and served with a slice of garlic bread, fry sauce and cocktail sauce (I think? Wasn’t a fan of this one). Yes, these are definitely some of the best finger steaks you will ever have! High quality cut meat coated with wonderfully seasoned batter cooked to crispy perfection - I was in heaven! My husband ordered the Famous Daddy-O burger (two patties, two ham slices, four bacon slices, Swiss, and cheddar, $17.49 for a small) with a side of fries and a strawberry milkshake ($3.89 for 12 oz). The price tag is steep on this guy but it’s absolutely justified. The burg was massive - so tall I struggled to get a bite. There was a lot going on and the blend from all the ingredients is phenomenal. Add a lil’ fry sauce before each bite and it’s a symphony of flavor! The milkshake was great as well. Incredibly thick and absolutely no chunks of fruit. 10/10 all the way! I couldn’t leave without trying the item that lands Westside on numerous lists on the internet - the famous Ice Cream Potato ($5.59). This thing is so freakin’ adorable and beautifully crafted you’ll almost enjoy staring at it just as much as eating it. It’s a ball of rich vanilla ice cream shaped into a potato, dusted with cocoa powder with whip cream, peanuts and cookie crumbles. At first glance, it truly does look like a baked potato with whipped cream! There’s small dips, scratches and textures added to resemble a real potato. I couldn’t believe how hard they really went on this. What a fantastic tribute to our state’s famous product. I am totally going to be returning to try more. And there’s no way I will not being another potato! I 100% recommend Westside, especially for visitors! With their huge menu, there really will be something for everyone!

The icecream potato was cute and delicious even as a to go item! Sadly for their burgers, they were terrible. There was more lettuce then burger, burger was unflavorful and chewy. I ate half and threw the rest away.

Awesome place to grab a bite to eat. Really reasonable prices and super tasty food. The grilled ham and cheese was delicious and very well priced at $5.60. And of course, if you're there you need to try the ice cream potato.
