It's a pretty wild bar/restaurant on the weekends, they have three pianos players taking requests. Probably the most lively place on saturday night.
Haven't tried the food yet.
Dress Code: Dress like you will be drunk later.

This one is decent, it is a two level club where there is a band playing on the main floor and one in the basement on the weekends. I am guessing that the better band is on the main floor and the inferior one gets the basement, I could be wrong though.
Dress Code: It's casual, you won't find too many trendy clubs that have a dress code in Boise.

Bardenay’s could be listed under restaurants, but it’s also a bar and a distillery of rum, gin, and vodka, and the atmosphere is more like a bar than a restaurant. The founders had to get Idaho laws changed in order to open their own distillery legally, so a lot of work went into this place! On the menu you’ll find a large appetizer selection, soup, sandwiches, fish tacos, satays, hummus with pitas, etc. – upscale pub food.
My favorite dish is the appetizer of clams steamed with wine, garlic, and chorizo, a Basque sausage that’s popular here. Most items are under $10, but it's possible to spend more (the beef fillet is close to $20).

No, this isn't named after Christina Aguilara, although you might find a few of them around there .
This is actually a concert house and it has a nifty bar and dance floor, plenty of small venue bands perform here regularly and a few big names come here for a close nit performance.
It is named after New Orleans for some reason.
Dress Code: If there is a hip hop concert, wear baggy clothes with a baseball cap pulled low. If it is a raggae concert, get some yellows and reds with dreadlocks.

The Flick's is a great place to watch a film. It reminded me of the Alamo Draft House in Austin a place to eat, drink and watch an alternative film. A good evening out!

Tom Grainy's downtown Boise has great local bands play. My favorite band was a band called 'Crash Four'. They were great.
