Goldy’s Breakfast Bistro opened in 1999 in downtown Boise.   It offers made-to-order breakfast using as many local ingredients as possible and lots of options for customizing your order.  With only 56 seats and taking no reservations, there is most always a line, but it moves quickly.  We got there early and were seated immediately.  There was a second floor with more metal tables and downstairs was a small semi circular bar with seating.  A tile floor was opposite the high ceiling on the first level where you could also see into part of the kitchen.  Lots of articles decorated the walls along with an interesting light fixture.  Parking is on the street and music is played in the background.  It served quality foods that were basically well prepared.  I would recommend it for breakfast or lunch.

Set-Up

 

Food

The Cajun Potato Omelet was made with Cajun sausage and seasoned red potatoes diced up and stuffed inside a three-egg omelet with cheddar and pepper jack cheese and then topped with fresh tomatoes and served with toast.  The eggs remained moist and it was well stuffed.  The sausage was not as spicy as we anticipated but it was overall satisfactory.  As a substitute for toast you could have one slice of cinnamon-raisin French toast.  It was very nice too.

 

Stuffed French Toast was made with a thick slice of sourdough bread stuffed with a mixture of bananas, butter, walnuts, cinnamon and brown sugar.  It was served with maple syrup and butter.  I added an order of bacon.  The sourdough was cut in half and inside it was smeared with the banana cinnamon mixture.  It made it a bit gummy but it was sweet and tasty when mixed with the syrup.  It was more than I could eat and the order of bacon was also quite generous and also tasty.
