" Alavita has become my favorite spot for Italian in Boise! The atmosphere is rustic and cozy, making it a great place for a casual dinner or a special occasion. This week, I tried the seasonal risotto and it was absolutely delicious, packed with fresh ingredients. Additionally, I loved how friendly and knowledgeable the staff were. They really contributed to the overall enjoyable experience. I left feeling full and happy! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had dinner at Alavita and generally enjoyed my meal. The ambiance was inviting with a modern twist on traditional decor. I tried their burrata and it was beautiful, complemented by a sweet mostarda. However, the main dish of tagliatelle, though well-prepared, was rather simple compared to the delightful starters. The staff seemed eager to please, which was refreshing. This restaurant is worth visiting, I would just try different dishes next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely evening at Alavita. The atmosphere is romantic and cozy, perfect for a special dinner. The tiramisu we ordered was a fitting end to the meal. I felt though that my main dish lacked flavor, which was a letdown against the other amazing dishes my friends enjoyed. Despite a few hiccups, the service at Alavita cannot be faulted; the staff went above and beyond to make our experience enjoyable. " (*Curated Review*)

" A memorable dining experience! The cocktails at Alavita were unique and delicious — perfect to start the evening. The focaccia bread was delightful, and I loved how they serve it warm. I had the rigatoni for my main dish, which I found to be rich and satisfying. While it was busy, the staff managed everything efficiently. My only gripe would be the limited dessert options, but the quality of the meal made up for it. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Alavita for a special occasion and the whole experience was lovely! It’s a cozy little slice of Italy right in Boise. The service was excellent; our waiter provided thoughtful recommendations that we appreciated. I ordered the pork pappardelle and it was hearty and flavorful, and I enjoyed every bite. The atmosphere combined with the delightful food makes for an unforgettable evening. I'll be back to try more from their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious food and great service! The ambiance at Alavita is charming and creates a perfect setting for a special occasion. Our server was knowledgeable and made excellent wine recommendations that complemented our meals. We tried a variety of dishes, and while everything was tasty, the scallops were the highlight for me. Note that it's quite popular, so making a reservation ahead of time is a must! " (*Curated Review*)

" The night we visited Alavita was lovely! Certain dishes impressed us immensely, especially the calamari which was crispy and fresh. I didn't love my main dish, a pasta special; it just lacked that wow factor. However, the attentive service and inviting atmosphere more than made up for the less than stellar food. We had a great overall experience, and I might give it another chance in the future. " (*Curated Review*)
