    Classic BLT
    Peyton M.

    Great little diner. Everyone was super friendly. BLT was delish! Chili was decent. Can't wait to return to try some of their doughnuts.

    Chicken Fried Steak

    I wish I could give this place 10 stars! We were visiting Polson for the first time and had been searching for a breakfast spot all day on Yelp but couldn't find exactly what we hoping for. Stopped at this restaurant on a whim because there was parking right in front. OMG it was exactly what we were hoping to find ! Giant portions, the food was quick and popping hot, smothered in gravy! They even have flavored coffee creamers! Booths right by the window for some people watching on the street. The service was wonderful and so kind! We forgot to ask for ketchup and she somehow still knew to bring it. Everything was salty enough so I did have to keep using the salt shaker. This place is amazing. I literally kept wondering if I was dreaming because it was exactly the breakfast spot we were hoping to find. AND they have donuts!! I can't wait to come back!!

    Ham scramble
    Darren S.

    As we were driving to Polson to spend the day everyone was hungry and ready for a good breakfast, so searched Yelp and found the Lake City Bakery. As we entered saw they were busy with only 1 server and so you have to seat yourself. Since only 1 server also had a little wait to get menus and then to order. However although our server was very busy she was friendly. Unfortunately the downside was unable to get refills on our coffee during our meal. We ordered the huckleberry pancakes, the ham scramble and the chicken fried steak. When the pancakes arrived they did not appear to have any huckleberry's in them so double checked with the waitress to ensure we got the right order. She apologized said the huckleberry's sink to the bottom of the batter sometimes and so she would have the kitchen remake them. While we appreciated her doing this unfortunately when the 2nd plate arrived the pancakes had very few huckleberry's in them so they were disappointing. The ham scramble was very plain, just eggs with a few cubes of ham. As for the chicken fried steak the breading was not good and the gravy was not very tasty. Not sure if maybe a new cook or just a bad day. So although I will not be back for breakfast I may stop by to pickup some donuts as they looked good.

    Updating from a 2015 review. We noted how much we loved the atmosphere in the 10 years...well now…read moreit's been 20 years that we make a point to dine here, specifically on our anniversary. It's where we dined on our honeymoon and we'll be coming back for years to come. We stopped in a couple of times on this trip. The good - The smokehouse food is just what it should be! I mean, we really love this food. The first Cherry Old Fashioned. Made with care and good ingredients. The Meh - The service on Taco Tuesday. It felt understaffed and the server commented, "at least I'm not alone tonight". Very telling The Bad - The second Cherry Old Fashioned on a different night. Not good. It was Taco Tuesday and the Smokehouse felt understaffed. The drinks were just slammed together.

    I ordered nachos, thought that was a safe bet! Supposed to be smoked chicken and cheese sauce…read more These were honestly the worst nachos I've ever had. The fresh chips were nice and the pico was good but the combo of veiny, bony chunks of dry chicken with the sweet BBQ sauce and sour "cheese" made it inedible. I really wanted to like this place it's a great location and fun drive, the patio was beautiful, great beer selection and the service was excellent. Maybe the nachos are just a bad item and they have other good stuff. I wouldn't give it another try unless to grab a beer.

    This restaurant is part of the Bigfork Gold Course. We had made reservations as we had a large…read moregroup. There is plenty of parking available. I didn't notice any gluten free/vegan options. The service was excellent, Niko was our server. I enjoyed the caesar salad. Several people ordered the short rib and really liked it. The presentation of the food was good. The filet was really good. I really liked the 1/2 potatoes, it was really yummy. The portion size was good and the prices were as expected. Since we were in a side room, it was a bit quieter and had soft music playing.

    My first time here. We ate in the fine dining side of the restaurant but you can dress casual…read more The restaurant was alive with tables having great conversations. I dug the vibe. I decided to try the Lychee Basil Martini- not too sweet or dry. I recommend this if you like a refreshing cocktail. Then I was torn because I had to try the poke! It just sounded delicious so my friends said they would have some too. 3 of us shared this and my picture was after we all took a little. (Oops) This was so delicious- don't miss eating the seaweed too! It was perfect pairing. I decided on the chicken because of the starter. And my friend said it was so tasty. My friend didn't lie! The spices used were outstanding. I normally don't order chicken in a restaurant but this is a definite thumbs up! Finally for dessert - the huckleberry Oreo mud pie. Pro tip: let it sit & melt for a few minutes because the flavors really come out the longer it sits! Dinner fabulous We didn't make a reservation & got lucky they had a table open. Wait staff was very helpful and nice. Prices - very fair especially for a fine dining restaurant. I hope to return the next time I visit my friends. As my first trip to Montana I loved it and can't wait to return.
