A welcome addition to Bozeman's growing selection of international restaurants, this cozy, dimly lighted Korean eatery serves delectable pork-kimchi buns, fried tofu dumplings, and bibimbap with bulgogi beef. Be sure to save room for a house-made Korean street doughnut.
Ground zero for unforgettable authentic Italian food in Bozeman, Blackbird Kitchen offers almost as many antipasti options as wine options. After your antipasti, choose from salads, pizzas, pastas, and meat entrées like lamb shank and crispy pork belly. Even with the open-kitchen concept and brick and industrial decor, the atmosphere is surprisingly romantic. You'll be tempted to stay for hours as you would in Italy.
Some call it funky; all call it good food at a fair price. Named for the shape of Grandma's glasses, this small family-owned restaurant serves up a sense of humor with breakfast and lunch, including a "Purrfect Lunch" special; "Look for the Catastrophe" (scrambled eggs with taters, toast, and veggies); the "Felix" (a breakfast sandwich with prosciutto, roasted red pepper aioli, spinach, gouda cheese, and a fried egg on a torta roll); and the banana bread French toast.
Feast is one of only a handful of restaurants in Montana serving up a daily dose of ceviche, bison carpaccio, and other raw bar specialties. Crabs, shrimp, oysters, scallops: if a fisherman can catch it, Feast serves it. For the meat lover, there is a burger with pancetta, bison tenderloin skewers, and Vietnamese chicken wings. As many of the ingredients as possible are seasonal and sourced locally from purveyors committed to sustainable farming and ranching. Visit during happy hour (5 to 6 everyday) for $1 off oysters on the half-shell, and $1 off tap beer and tap wine.
Colorful murals, high ceilings, and exposed air ducts create a mod-industrial ambience in this bustling downtown café that serves breakfast all day as well as a selection of tasty lunch items. Specialties include the crab cake Benedict and challah bread French toast stuffed with jam-infused mascarpone cheese.
A cavernous brick building, the former Northern Pacific Railroad depot houses a full bar with a huge selection of Montana microbrews, and a restaurant with a choice of quiet or boisterous seating areas. In addition to 40-plus beers on tap, Ale Works serves bison burgers, bison pot stickers, hand-cut steaks, sandwiches, fish tacos, and seasonal salads. Favorites include the pepper Parmesan fries and the Montana meat loaf, as well as nightly specials like Dungeness crab cakes, wild Alaskan salmon sliders, and carrot ginger soup.
A deer head, often sporting sunglasses, surveys the cowboys and families that pack the counter stools and tables at this down-home breakfast and lunch spot. Peruse the local paper as you work your way through biscuits and gravy, eggs with corned-beef hash, or pork chops. There's nothing fancy outside or in, but for local color, this is it.
