    It's like it was meant to be. Pennies for the Penney Farms Princess!
    Amber J.

    If you're looking for the kind of place that feels like a warm hug with a side of perfectly cooked food, Little Star Diner is it. It's effortless Montana charm with a creative, elevated twist. The menu is thoughtful and fresh, with locally sourced ingredients that you can truly taste in every bite. Everything felt intentional and beautifully prepared. Little Star Diner absolutely shines.

    Fried carrots and broccolini
    Tom G.

    Came here for a nice "family" dinner for the first night we were in town, and with some reservations they were able to handle our group of 14 just fine. Wait staff was very informative and helpful, and let us know that much of what they make is locally sourced which I always find to be a nice little added touch. That being said, that means the menu often rotates, so hopefully you get lucky and get the same great meals we did! Decor is very modern, we sat on the rooftop which was delightful on a coolish evening, but there are also inside options. To start with drinks, we split a bottle of High Plains Drifter, a sparkling apple cider which was delightful and nearly was reminiscent of a light white wine. Then for appetizers we had the grilled sourdough and fried carrots with broccolini, and let me say, those were some of the best veggies I've ever tried. For mains I had the potato gnocchi and I tried the spicy noodle salad. The gnocchi is a bit rich but delicious and the spicy noodle salad lives up to its name and got a few of my friends a little choked up, but that isn't too say it wasn't very fresh and flavorful. I also tried the anise ice cream, which as I might have expected, wasn't for me, but that's personal taste, I don't like licorice, but I can tell the quality is there if you are one who likes to partake.

    Carrot cake was amazing

    Food & Service are great. Even went back a second night just for desert. Would definitely recommend.

    I can't even explain how amazing the food was! Here are some photos. Everything was perfect and so good. I haven't tasted food like this in so long. So beautifully crafted! They also accommodated my dairy allergy. We sat at the bar and watched them cook which made it even more special !

    Sourdough Pita Mezze Plate
    Kristina I.

    When we saw that this place was called "diner," we expected a much different vibe. We were very pleasantly surprised. My sister and I made a reservation for a Thursday PM and this place was pretty packed upon entering, so I am glad we did. We ordered the Sourdough Pita Mezze Plate as a starter to share. Each item was well curated. The little orange tomatoes were so perfectly sweet. The pita bread and the hummus with chili oil was divine. For a main course, we ordered 2 dishes to share between the two of us -- the organic double cheeseburger and the gnocchi + matsutake mushrooms. The burger was simple, but very nicely done. The gnocchi was so pillowy and melted in our mouths. The matsutake mushrooms were also delicious and have a meat-like texture. I wanted a glass of wine, but the price at $14/$15 per glass felt a little steep. I ended up getting a beer instead. Overall great experience!

    Excellent food, atmosphere, and service! The waitress we had was attentive, but gave us lots of space to enjoy the rooftop dining experience, and the menu options were varied and change every day. Really lovely experience, a little pricey, but good for special occasions!

I did the B&G breakfast. That's biscuits and gravy with choice of egg and meat. The biscuits were tasty and large. They were soft with a perfect hint of sweetness. They were almost perfect just a tad dry. The gravy was good with the right consistency. The eggs were perfect over easy and the yolk mixed great with the meal. Finally, I loved the bacon it was crispy goodness. Great place to go for breakfast.

I'm not sure if the nonchalant/don't give-a-F was a part of the service vibe, but everyone working just seemed like they woke up on the wrong side of the bed? Or maybe back home in California, everyone's always just perky? The food was 'meh.' Definitely something I could have made myself. Didn't think the hashbrowns had any flavour. Smallest piece of toast. Bacon was whatever. Eggs might have been the best part? Honestly, this breakfast was nothing special. It filled my tummy for our morning of adventures ahead, but was really nothing special. The nicest thing about the place was the unique decor. I wouldn't come back and eat again though. 2026: 44/2026

Service is spot on -- friendly staff who are always hustling!! Location and environment work for me -- love the down home vibe inside and tables are spread out well. Tips -- it's usually crowded and you want to come in at the top of the hour. It's usually packed from the jump and most folks will be in their seats 50-60 minutes. If you come after 10am on the weekend, expect a wait time of 30-40 minutes.

That said the wait was 7-9 minutes, which was our estimated drive time. However, when we arrived there was a line out the door and a gentleman taking names. I told him we were on the waitlist, which he verified, then he bumped us up in the queue. We probably ended up waiting another 10 minutes before being seated. We weren't super hungry, but we wanted to have something prior to our travels. I went with the crab cake Benedict, half order, with hash browns. My oldest got regular pancakes with hash browns. My youngest got the cinnamon roll pancakes. The pancakes are really good size. Both my girls enjoyed them very much. My youngest devoured the cinnamon roll pancakes before I could get a photo. She let me try them and they were really good. The hash browns were excellent! Love it when a place cooks them perfectly--when they are nice and crispy! They serve them with ketchup upon request too. The crab cake Benedict was very decadent and delicious! Loved that it was also served with some arugula--love arugula! The place is quite large and they have some really cool seating options. The restrooms are located very close to the kitchen. It almost looks like you're going down a hallway you aren't supposed to. A couple of the servers saw my hesitation and told me if I go into the kitchen, I've gone too far! Noted! It's got a really nice vibe to it! We would definitely come back!

We started with huge mildly-spicy chipotle pepperjack Housemade Tater Tots, crispy yet soft, soothed by a mild tomatillo ranch dipping sauce. And a luscious plate of Bison Potstickers, under a light layer of somewhat-spicy mango & garlic chili sauces, with asian slaw. The Fresh Asian Ramen salad dish was tender organic mixed greens, lightly-sautéed fresh seasonal carrots peas-in-tender-pods and thin brightly-flavored radish slices, tender light ramen noodles, and our chosen plum-glazed sesame-fried mild tofu (instead of chicken), with added sweet tender pan-fried Idaho rainbow trout filet, all under a light sesame-soy vinaigrette. Quite marvelous. The Kale Caesar, (Their Hail-Caesar joke?) was surprisingly good! By rolling the kale and cross-cutting it into thin strips, chiffonade-style, it was tender to the bite! I actually though it was baby kale! It was dressed with a sprinkling of shaved hard white cheeses, housemade sourdough croutons, and a light splashes of creamy caesar. They would add anchovies if you want. Tender juicy thick Monarch-Elk Burger is just a tiny bit game-y, adding a light tough of sweet extra flavor. It's covered with flavorful melted gruyère, a rich tomato jam, arugula, and a truffled porcini aioli. The bun was fresh and pillowy with a paper-thin egg-wash crust. Quite good! I will say that, other than the novelty, we didnt find a reason to come back to elk rather than a well-crafted beef burger. The lightly-beer-battered local, natural Hutterite Pork Chop Sandwich was tender and sweet like chicken, with honey mustard, lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles. We savored the creaminess of their home-brewed sweet draft craft root beer. And of course we dove into their craft beer list. It was fun to taste the brightly colorful smooth somewhat-sweet Huckleberry Cream Ale from Portland's Hopworks Brewery. Lical huckleberries are hard-to-cultivate more-tart blueberry-relatives, which did become a recurring treat in one form or another on this trip. We shared two self-chosen craft-beer flights. Our favorite was the Bayern Brewing kölsch, a light golden color with soft yeasty malty flavors and just a touch of spiciness. And we loved a selection of their many IPAs. Our least-favorite brew was the Lockhorn Gallatin Grapefruit Mint Cider. The flavor was unusual, and it took me the whole flight-glass to come to terms with the tarragon-like undertone. We also bought some merch from their small retail area near the hosts' stand. Montana Ale Works' inside hall is vast, with a high ceiling and the cheerful roar of conversation. There's a large bar in the center of the room. And there's patio seating out front. At 5, they had said it wasnt crowded yet. We got there at 5:30pm on a weekday, and we had about a 20min wait for our table. Staff was welcoming and efficiently busy. We enjoyed our evening. This was one of the nicest meals on this trip.
