    The food was incredible. The whole lodge is such a little delight. The views were beautiful and the lodge was peaceful while eating incredible food. Before finishing his meal, my boyfriend said we're eating here every night. That says a lot coming from him. Thank you Gallatin.

    Food was amazing. Staff was kind but the server spilled a drink on my brother in laws lap and it would have been the right thing to do for the restaurant to comp his drink. Other than that it was very good.

    It has been awhile since we had been here, but neither my husband or I were disappointed in anything! We had the burrata appetizer, salads, salmon and beef tenderloin. It was all cooked to perfection. Our server was very attentive and great as well. We will be back!

    We have been going to Gallatin River Lodge for the past 18 years for Valentines Day (and days in between ) and have never been disappointed! Last night was no exception :-) the scallops were cooked beautifully, and the steak was to die for! I highly recommend not only the restaurant, but the lodging as well.

    Hidden gem in Bozeman. The menu, food, service, and staff are incredible. Ryan the bartender is a true mixologist and makes you feel right at home. Can’t say enough good things about this place. If you haven’t tried it yet, you should! Top notch in every way.

    We hadn’t been here in about a decade! Still a solid choice! Meals and service were excellent. I miss the front room dining. It was definitely more cozy and warmer. Not the fault of the restaurant, but some people don’t understand inside voices. All the conversation could be overheard by every other diner. With that said, I would still recommend this hidden gem!!

    My husband and I had made reservations here for our anniversary and our babysitter cancelled on us last minute. I called to see if we could bring our two year old twins..always risky business…and they welcomed them to join us. The staff made our family feel so welcome! The food and drinks were amazing. The chef made our twins a meal that wasn’t on the menu and the loved it! We loved sitting by the window and looking at the wildlife as well as the fall colors. We can’t wait to come back!! Thank you for making our anniversary so special!

    Absolutely fantastic meal- definitely one of the best in Bozeman! My husband had the Waygu steak which has to be one of, if not the best steak in town. The service was prompt, friendly, and all around great (and good service seems to be a dying art). We had a lovely time celebrating my husband's birthday and will definitely be back!

    By far the best gourmet meal I'm Gallatin Valley. It fell off for a year or two but it's back better then it's ever been. The new management is kicking butt and it's better than anything else and I've tried them all. Other restaurants scratch the gourmet itch, this gets the job done hands down.

    My daughter was "paper married" at the Bozeman courthouse and we decided to celebrate the event with our new son in law and his family at the Gallatin River Lodge. Our experience was absolutely lovely, the setting sun over the mountain range and pond was magical, the food was amazing and the service impeccable! This was a special event and we felt special celebrating it here!

    Superb, genuinely friendly service, wonderful drinks, delish apps, entrees and dessert. Great open and quiet atmosphere overlooking a beautiful pond which featured free fly rod casting lessons with occasional deer roaming by in the background. And to top it all off… a super talented solo musician who played guitar and sang all my favorite songs! Highly recommend and we’ll be back soon.

    We thought it was very good and tasty food. It was a bit high price-wise, which will probably prevent me from coming back very often. But we loved our food choices. I had the wagyu tenderloin and my son had the duck. Both were delicious and our shared salad, Arugula and Berries was so tasty and big enough to be shared! Wine was $12+ per GLASS, no thanks. I did order the ‘Summertime’ cocktail, $15, and it was only half filled - a bit ridiculous. I would recommend this place but I’d probably forego the cocktails/wine. It’s very close to my house so I can see ordering the salad to go. Then I’ll pour myself some wine at home!
