Rockies Diner in Boise reopens after forced shutdown

The Idaho Department of Labor closed the Overland Road restaurant because of missed unemployment tax payments.

BOISE, Idaho — Just days after being shut down because of unpaid taxes, Rockies Diner is open again.

In a post on Facebook, the owner of the 1950s-themed diner along Overland Road on the Boise Bench announced the reopening.

He also apologized for, in his words, "previous choices" that led to the shutdown, and said the business is making sure everything is handled before it gets to that point again.
