Excellent steakhouse with a Montana vibe. The wild mushrooms and selection of local meats were the highlights on my menu. Staff were attentive, friendly and engaging. The atmosphere was great and made you feel transported to a different time. Parking is pretty easy but it's about a 2-3 minute walk up to the restaurant Food- 5 stars wild mushrooms- this is a must-order. Incredibly tasty and on the heavier side Elk meatball- pretty good, but I enjoyed their mains more Smoked trout dip- pretty good, but I enjoyed their mains more bison short rib- incredibly tender and very flavorful. The more lean profile of the bison really showed out, and made me appreciate how much tastier bison is compared to beef Wapiti chops- incredibly tender and very flavorful, without being too gamey or fatty Elk and porcini ravioli- really good as well panzanella- balanced and fresh. very well done Service and atmosphere- 5 stars Food came out quickly and the servers and bartenders were really attentive. The cabin feel, the lighting, and all the taxidermy on the walls. I truly felt transported to what Montana is pictured to be. Incredible experience if you're around the area Bottom Line Excellent steakhouse at the Lone Mountain Ranch. The quintessential place to get the Montana experience read more

We arrived for lunch on Sunday, around 1:30. It took a good 5 minutes for anyone to greet us. We think it was the manager who finally rescued us, he was very friendly. Our server was efficient, he brought us a pitcher of water after we quickly downed our first glasses. We ordered 3 burgers and the steak sandwich. The burgers and fries were all great. The steak sandwich had maybe 2oz of meat on it and a few arugula leaves. We called attention to the measly sandwich with the waiter...like surely this can't be right for $33? He didn't act like it was unusual, but offered to swap it out for another burger at our request. I wish I would've taken photo of it, because it was comical. Especially next to the huge burger and huge turkey club sandwiches they were bringing out. There were a LOT of flies and bees around our table constantly. All other tables had one of those fly fans on them, but we didn't get one. The flies were abundant and annoying. This was the first meal we've eaten at Big Sky, so I can't say whether or not we would return. Perhaps at dinner. It has a great reputation. But I wouldn't order the steak sandwich again. read more

Amazing setting. Horse ranch and rustic restaurant. The space is beautiful. They offer wild game options, namely Bison and Elk. We opted for the Bison Shot Ribs and the Bison and Elk bolognese with rigatoni. Both were excellent. The Bison Meatball appt was huge and delicious. Service was fine with one exception. They gave us a basket of what was supposed to be fresh baked baguette and it was Stale bread. When the server came over I politely asked should the bread be stale or chewy? She replied, it's fresh baked every day. To which I said, this doesn't chew fresh baked. Now typically the server would say, I'm sorry let me get you another basket, Not here, she said so you don't want the bread and just took the basket away, no replacement. I know it's a small issue but it left a bad taste with me. read more

Ordered the bison spare ribs with creamed spinach for 2 and pork chop. The spare ribs were served Luke warm. The creamed spinach was runny. The meat lacked flavor. The pork chop was flavorful. The fries were over cooked. Nothing that we ate was worth the price and I had been so hopeful. I would have been better satisfied at a food truck. I would not return. read more

Came here for a special family event with a party of 10, including two kids restaurant was beautiful with excellent service. Wait staff handled our party easily. Kids menu was great from such an expensive adult restaurant. Food was very good, but not incredible enough for me to have completely loved the experience. Bill ran about $130 a person with drinks and entrees. Venue and waitstaff made the experience and I would recommend coming for a special evening. read more

Absolutely fantastic! We had the wings, which you get a good amount of and were the perfect amount of crispy. I split the burger and steak sandwich with my husband. They were both phenomenal. You don't need a reservation for lunch only dinner. It wasn't busy and we went around 11:45. I didn't realize it was on the long mountain ranch property. Really beautiful area, go! read more

absolutely amazing experience overall I think we might've just went on a busy night because it took about 40 minutes to be seated even with a booking while we were waiting though there was live music and a super fun Bar environment would totally come back. Food was amazing. read more

Five years ago, we celebrated our wedding dinner here and had their peach cobbler instead of a traditional cake. It was so special that we spent over a year planning a trip back to the area from Florida to celebrate our 5th anniversary. After booking our reservation on August 7th, the restaurant called us today, Aug 22nd and just weeks before our trip, to cancel the reservation due to a private event. Canceling our 5 year anniversary reservation after keeping it on the books for 15 days is remarkably poor management. We are extremely disappointed that a place tied to such a special memory treats loyal guests with so little regard. read more

Horn and Cantle is one of my all time favorite restaurants. The location is stunning, the bar area is a fun vibe and the dining area is set up very nicely. The service is outstanding, every server/bartender is knowledgeable and friendly. The food is incredible. One of my favorite dishes to order is the short ribs - it's so tasty! read more

Horn and Cantle - Short rib meal - New American Near Me - Big Sky, Montana

Wow! Wow! We were mesmerized by the cool Montana mountain decor and art. We were seated next to the fire place, very cozy & romantic. We were blown away bu the food. Our most favorite were the appetizers- Elk meatballs were the best close toe with the mishrooms, trout and bison tartar - all outstanding. The entrees - bison and elk were also outstanding. Everything perfectly cooked. The service was top notch as if you were at a Michelin restaurant in New York professional server. He was a Som 1 foodie with Modern Montana cowboy style. The Horn & Cantle made our vacation extra special. read more

We were driving to Yellowstone and stopped at Big Sky, MT to grab a bite. We were directed by the locals here. Boy was as that sound advice. We stepped into the saloon and met with Kylie. She was wonderful to talk to and had recently moved to the area. We had a few drinks for my birthday (the Bramble and the Old Fashioned were terrific.) We also split the chicken club sandwich with a side of sweet potato fries. EXCELLENT FOOD! And enough for both of us on one entree. The grounds here are amazing and so the decor inside also make this a MUST STOP in Big Sky. THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH FOR YOUR HOSPITALITY! read more

I consider myself a foodie and somewhat hard to please when it comes to food. We stayed in Big Sky for 3 nights while enjoying Yellowstone. We were underwhelmed with the restaurant choices. We came across Horn and Cantle and they squeezed us in for an 8:30 reservation. I can say that I had the best pork chop in my life - it was amazing. In fact, everything we had was amazing. Our server Jamey was equally amazing. We may never be back to Big Sky, but will recommend Horn and Cantle to anyone who visits. read more

We had lunch here and this place is classy and I thought the food was delicious!! We shared the Caesar salad, which had real anchovies in it; I had the Burger with sweet potato fries - the burger tasted of fresh authentic beef and my mouth was watering, and the fries were perfectly seasoned and salted; my wife had grouper tacos and swapped out the flour tortillas for corn - she thought they were just okay. Our older two boys had grilled salmon with fries and asparagus, and they both ate all of it, which is not the norm. The younger one had kids chicken fingers, which was a very healthy amount that he couldn't eat all of, so we'll get to enjoy it for tonight's dinner. The service was just okay, but the ambiance was quite enjoyable and the front covered patio was a perfect shaded spot. read more

During our babymoon, we visited Horn & Cantle and had such a wonderful experience. My husband ordered the short rib and I had the special Japanese yellowtail. Both dishes were cooked perfectly. Making reservations online was super easy, and we loved the unique experience of dining on a ranch. Our server was knowledgeable. Highly recommend! read more

Great experience and food! This is def going to a be a pricier dinner but it is worth it. We walked around the ranch and hung out by the fire after dinner. Service was great! Would suggest a reservation, especially during busy season. read more

Great farm-to-table restaurant with beautiful ambiance at the stunning Lone Mountain Ranch. We loved walking through the grounds on the way there. It has a historic, upscale, but cozy vibe. We had drinks in the saloon - a couple handcrafted huckleberry cocktails and huckleberry mocktails (very good), and enjoyed some live music - a guy playing guitar. Our friends stayed for dinner, and said it was really good. On the way out, we saw a baby bear out front - fortunately not the mamma. Totally recommend! read more

In town for a vacation and I would totally recommend!!! We had a WONDERFUL time at this restaurant!! My son has a whole book of allergies and the chef made him his own special custom plate since we called and booked ahead of time. We appreciate his willingness and dedication to meet all the requirements, you don't find that at to many places. Everything the rest of my party got was amazing as well the elk meat ball, blue fin tuna tartar a couple Steaks, tomahawk, surf and Turf and a chicken plate Wonderful job to the chef and the server!! Even got a ride back down to parking lot in no time at all. Beautiful restaurant super clean great service amazing food and wonderful atmosphere! read more

Food waaaaay overpriced. Food undercooked. Service subpar. Even had to ask for the main chef/sous chef and even that took a long while. First time visiting Montana and it was a bad experience. Maybe Chicago or one of the Carolinas next time. Honestly, I have good friends in MT but this place was the worst place I've experienced dining. read more

This place deserves 1,000,000 stars. Wow, what an experience. Before we could even finish appetizers my dad was booking his stay on site so he could eat here all day. Everything we ordered was absolutely insane and top quality. As dishes come out for other customers, you will quickly see there is not one bad thing on the menu here. Appetizers: Elk meatball - it's 1 meatball that can be shared, well you might not want to actually share it with others LOL, with a dollop of a whipped cheese and a little bit of sauce to dunk the homemade toasted focaccia bread Mushroom goat cheese board - local grown mushrooms sautéed in butter with a whipped goat cheese...we were scraping the board clean. Miso Caesar salad - quality lettuce and the miso dressing isn't over powering but a really nice twist that still comes off classic. Dinner UGHHHHH Tomahawk ribeye- I love steak and this was by far the best steak I have EVER had. We switched out the gratin for regular mashed and it tasted similar to a mashed baked potato. Really great. Rigatoni - perfection. Sauce was done really well and the pasta is homemade. Dessert The cowboy cookie - what I want to say isn't appropriate for Yelp. Just order it, trust me. Deconstructed huckleberry cheesecake - WOW normally I don't like dishes presented like this but this blew my mind. Especially with that small scoop of huckleberry sorbet. Our server, Pierce....he was THE MAN. So kind, knowledgeable and had amazing suggestions and stories about the local area . He made the experience so wonderful. He went beyond our expectations as a server, and we are a pain in the ass table to deal with at times LOL After dessert we told them they had to drag us out, or roll us out Lol we took a tour around the property and the beautiful red head (totally forgot her name -_-) she was so kind and showed us all the amazing this the property had to offer. This place is extremely special and highly recommended by anyone we spoke to. If Montana had the same squatting laws as CA, we never would've left LOL can't wait to go back !!! read more

Wonderful ambience, amazing location, fantastic service from Robert. The food was delicious just overpriced In my opinion. Our tomahawk steak was $199. The bland bowl of rice was $17 and $15 for a small half bowl of carrots and potatoes? The mushroom dish appetizer was delicious , don't bother with the bison meatball read more

What an unbelievable experience! We were visiting from California on a vacation road trip and decided to stop in and we're so glad we did! The nightlife was beautiful, with amazing live music and fantastic food. We walked in with no reservations, a party of four, and the staff went above and beyond to accommodate us right away. Everyone treated us so well friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The atmosphere, the service, and the food all came together for a perfect night. Highly recommend! read more

Horn and Cantle - Insane food and accommodations. A must visit. Reservations a week weeks in Advanceded - New American Near Me - Big Sky, Montana

I'm going to start and say wow what a beautiful place. Employees are friendly. Service was ok. Prices are high ($150.00 per person and higher for a steak) and that would be ok for a tender melt in your mouth steak with delicious sides. But Unfortunately what we received was a not so tender steak with undercooked herbed potato pieces. I found If you ate the potatoes under the steak they were just about cooked right. Mac and cheese was served in a hot cast iron pan. Flavor was good but the Orecchiette noodles were too thick for Mac and cheese and also under. We sent so much leftover meat back to the trash because it wasn't worth taking it with us. I did hear a lady at the table next to us that the hamburger tasted good. Would we go back. No. read more

Such a great experience! First of all we were here during "slow season" which was great for us because there was barely anyone there. We had a great table in the corner that had tons of pillows and cushions and had a wonderful view of the ranch. Our server Mason was ON-POINT! He was very friendly and professional, gave us tons of suggestions on what to eat and advice on where to explore for the rest of our trip. We even got a surprise ski shot (mainly because we were there for a bachelorette) (Thanks again!!). All the cocktails were delicious, especially the Lone Mountain. If you enjoy old fashions, the Lone Mountain is similar but way better! We got the elk meatball (killer!) and the baked Brie (seasonal). We all shared the different cuts of meats from prime rib, steak frites (skirt steak), and the filet. I definitely recommend the elk meatball to start and the filet mignon was the most tender and flavorful of the 3. The skirt steak was my least favorite, however it was order medium... so a bit well done for me (ha). Finally, for dessert we had a fun banana split that had 8 different toppings on the round tray, which was fun to pick and choose want you wanted to enjoy with the Sunday. Overall, the staff was great which really made the experience a special one. We will definitely be back next time we are back in beautiful Big Sky! read more

"As locals living here in BS we have always loved LMR and Horn & Cantle not just for the food or ambiance but for the staff. Although we did have one incident last year when we were waiting at the bar and one of the wait staff members explicitly said "You should not be standing and waiting here. Can you move and wait somewhere else?" It was a very crowded bar but we complied. That person could have used nicer words. Other than that incident we will always return to LMR and Horn & Cantle." read more

Enjoyed the Christmas dinner buffet. We left with full bellies and the food wasn't bad - but when we compare meals of similar price point, we've had much better. The service and location were wonderful. Kiddo review (Joy, 7) I loved the treats there and the gingerbread men. They were so good. And my little sister loved the food. And so did my mom and Dad and me. read more

Food: Absolutely wonderful. Service was a disappointment since this is known as a high-end place to go and enjoy. Staff could have been better this time around. Reservations are horrible trying to plan ahead and they make you feel less than planning ahead. I was told that hotel guest receive priority so trying to plan ahead is basically shot down by non-hotel guest. Ambiance is clean and wonderful. Previously, we ate in the bar (first come first served) and we will do this next time BECAUSE the fancy dining room is not worth the struggle. In due time, someone will top this place only to find other great places to go. read more

Few realize where some of the best cattle in USA comes from and while Texas undoubtedly had a reputation for producing beef, the quality found in Montana is a good bit more concentrated, focusing on more rare breeds and a very high level of attention to quality. On top of it, the land of elk and bison presents some less common beasts to be enjoyed. Horn and Cantle, located at historic Lone Mountain Ranch, is a stunning place. It's a traditionally decorated establishment, with animal heads throughout, but also a good sense of taste in design. It feels local for a good reason, because it very much is. Despite being in a very isolated place far away from any cities, it manages to give a run to and actually exceed the meat from some of the best steakhouses in New York, Chicago and Atlanta to name a few. The prices here are also close to double for a similar cut of meat in a big city. The bone in tenderloin is so flavorful, it is unbelievable. The elk meatball is lean and tasty in its own way. The burger is spectacular. People working here are kind and pleasant. Beef is from Montana, elk from Canada and bison from Wyoming. Thus, for an authentic western meal, Horn and Cantle is an absolute must, as long as one sticks fo beef and bison. read more

This was the perfect dinner spot for celebrating a birthday. It is located within Lone Mountain Ranch, where there is a free parking lot and a short walk to the restaurant. I really liked the set up of the inside with the rancher style decorations. Upon entering we were greeted by the hostess and they had an area for us to hang our coats. The service here was great and everything came out quickly. We start with their espresso martini which was absolutely delicious. To start with we ordered the elk meatball, which was one large meatball served with a red sauce, ricotta, and a grilled piece of sourdough bread. I'd never tried elk before but I really enjoyed this and found it not to be gamey at all. For my meal I ordered the filet with a blue cheese butter. The steak was seasoned and cooked perfectly to my liking. I ordered it medium rare and it was nice and juicy! My boyfriend had ordered the double bison short rib and he said his meal was incredible as well. I highly recommend this place, especially if you are going for a special occasion, since it is on the pricier side. read more

Great ambiance and service. We were there for dinner recently and sat at the bar because we didn't have any reservations. The food was good and hearty with generous portions. I ordered a shrimp and pasta special that was WAY over spiced and too hot to eat (I had to send it back...which the staff did graciously). The shrimp were massive and plenty...and excellently prepared. My friend had the rib eye and it was good. Go for the ambiance and service...and enjoy the food. read more
