GREAT FOOD! And great service! My dad served in the military and I love the tribute military theme!!

I was excited to try this restaurant because they advertised the impossible burger but come to find out their buns aren't vegan. Total bummer. The food was ok and the burger lettuce wrapped was ok but not great. The main issue was our service. Oh man, our waitress was horrible. Snotty with an attitude. She was unkind and not interested in helping us at all. So just do your self a favor and skip this place unless you want half-ass service and ok food.. if you do decide to stop in, then ask for any other server besides the short blond who "has been here 2 years and knows everything" She says the pretzel was not vegan, however, the flour is. So you can order the pretzel with no butter on top. ** update. The menu says impossible burger but they served us the beyond burger. We chatted with the manager and she was nice enough. So overall the management was good, restaurant was clean but I'd still steer clear of that horrible server. There's a brewery next door and they seem nice, so I'd suggest trying that place instead. read more

Group of 4 had dinner at Sidewinder tonight. The fish & chips was very good: 5 big chunks of beer-battered cod served on a mountain of fries. The cod was perfect: cooked just right. The batter didn't peel off, it wasn't soggy between fish & batter. It also wasn't greasy. Which leads me to the reason for 4 stars: the fries were underwhelming. They were cooked fine but not particularly tasty and nothing to talk about. I would have enjoyed the cod without the fries. This entree needed a non-greasy side like a green salad or broccolini. The staff were attentive, efficient and the food came out swiftly even though it was a busy Saturday evening. I appreciate the tribute to Veterans. It is however quite loud & difficult to have conversations. The rest of the entrees for our party included chicken pot pie, pasta alfredo, and a steak that I missed the name of. Everyone enjoyed their meal & left not a morsel left on the plate, except for my mountain of fries. read more

The place is just okay. Brand new at this point. Staff: They appear to have just hired the most attractive gals they could find in town. I'm certainly not complaining about good looking girls, but customer service, smiling, and conversing with your bar patrons are ultimately more important. Our bartender was pushy, and not particularly friendly. Atmosphere: Also, just ok. It's new construction in every way. Manufactured concrete facade (fake stone) on the fireplace, and the bar is made of that cheap plastic stuff they put in low-end condominiums to mimic hardwood floors. The high, industrial cielings were a nice touch though. A painting/sketch of the Air Force guys who started it was kinda cool. Overall, a sterile feel. Beer: I was excited when I heard they had something like 100 taps. I was really disappointed when 95% of those beers were the same mass-distributed beers available at the gas station next door, for 5x less money. I'm perfectly willing to pay six bucks for a beer -- but only when it's something that's a little tricky to find on your own. These guys have the exact same selection as the huge national chains like Old Chicago. Ale Works (the local pub with many beers) also charges $6 a beer, but you're getting a lot of stuff that's not readily available at every other bar in town. Not so here. Food: Didn't try. Menu was basic -- burgers and such. Bottom Line: The place is pretty similar to the other west-end restaurant, Red Chair -- with similar price points. Better local character at the Red Chair -- and I'd also rather support local guys than owners who started this concept in Jackson Hole, WY. read more

Sidewinders American Grill - Bar area seating - Bars Near Me - Bozeman, Montana

For starters I got on the 45 minutes waitlist which was fine because it was a Friday night, but once I got there I waited another 30 minutes before getting seated. My 4-person party was sat at the tiniest square table I've ever seen, there was barely enough room for water cups. After having a decent appetizer we got our main entree, this is where my experience went to hell. I ordered a margarita pizza, now if your expecting good typical pizza seriously DO NOT waste your money here. This was honestly the most irritating part to me, it was late and I was starving and my "margarita pizza" was an odd shaped cracker with craft cheese and a few tomato's on it. Why even classify that as pizza? No where on the menu did they say it was flat bread/no bread. Took a chance going here, will definitely not be returning. read more

Not impressed. There are way too many actual good food places in Bozeman to eat here. The food is high priced bar food. Crowded. Service did not impress me at all. Bartenders ignored us when we asked for menus on a Friday night. Way too expensive for the cookie cutter bar food and lack of service. Plus it was insane crazy with numerous loud, multiple children burdened families so it felt like an adult version of Chucky Cheese. read more

If I could give this restaurant six stars I would. This place in always great. Every time I have a guest in town this is the place I take them. Consistently good, customer service is also always good. The beer menu is extensive and impressive. Love what they stand for, very pro American. Can't wait to come back! read more

This was a great restaurant. The bartender was super nice and made sure that we were taken care of. They were very busy and he still got the job done. I appreciated the fact that he could relate to me when I said I hate shopping!! The food was filling and tasted great. read more

Definitely a good spot. They have a nice food and beer selection. The staff are very friendly. The steak is usually not cooked right, and it's on the higher end cost wise for a ribeye compared around town. The burgers are not bad and their fries are pretty good. read more

Never disappointed here. Great atmosphere, food, and service! We always bring visiting friends to Sidewinders, and we always enjoy our experience. The booths are roomy and comfortable. The restaurant feels open and airy, and the theme is patriotic and appreciative of our veterans. read more

Cool place! Bozeman is a rapidly growing city, tastefully so. Sidewinders is an aviation themed restaurant, but not overly thematic. The food was good, they have a good selection of beer and other drinks, and the staff is professional and helpful. You won't regret eating here. read more

Short-staffed? Came in at 9:30pm. Pretty quiet. But they couldn't seat me due to insufficient servers. I wasn't interested in eating at the bar. Sidewinders had been my "late-night" go-to. Time to look elsewhere if they can't seat you at 9:30 on a Thursday. read more

Good food. Loud atmosphere, great for kids of all ages. Good service. Nice drinks. There usually is a bit of a wait so get yourself on their waitlist. read more

This place needs to step it up, with Texas Roadhouse in town you have serious competition. They have better food and better prices!! Sidewinders has a better atmosphere. I have been going to Sidewinders since the day they opened...it has been going downhill since, taking great items off the menu, people have to eat with their coats on it's cold!!! Just because the staff is running around working keeping warm...we are sitting freezing. read more

We had WONDERFUL service from Kylee this evening! She has a delightful way about her. The meal was good and the service was excellent. read more

Solid bar food, good atmosphere, and great service from Trey. Kids loved the pretzels filled with pizza toppings! read more

Sidewinders had really good food but I would dine in rather than take out. Food was cold. The pasta Alfredo had only broccoli stems as the vegetable. Some of our order was missing. I've noticed some inconsistencies the last couple years compared to when they first opened. read more

Sidewinders had great selection of food and beverages-particularly craft beers. The food was tasty and the service attentive. Would highly recommend a meal here. read more

Coming off the road from Big Sky we quickly chose Sidewinders-- and glad we did. The hot from the oven chicken pot pie with puff pastry was just right for a rainy cold day. The hangover burger was exactly as it was described. Hit the spot! Huckleberry mules we're delicious read more

Cool restaurant! Pretty good service and a fun open place to be especially when the weather is nice! Great food and menu!

Seated us quickly on a busy Saturday night. Attentive servers. Montgomery was charming, helpful and knowledgeable about the menu. There were four of us and the bill was only $77.50. Reasonably priced. Fish and chips were excellent and huge portions. The chicken pot pie was fresh and tasty. Walnut apple salad was delicious. The "Sidewinder" pretzel with mozzarella cheese and marinara dip was the bomb! The decor and ambiance is fun and energetic. Would come again when passing through Bozeman. read more

We had stopped at a Sidewinders in Jackson WY and loved it and happily saw there was one in Bozeman. Valerie took great care of us! This place supports Vets so make sure you ask for you Veteran discount to you military folk out there. If you are into military aviation, you'll appreciate this place! The food is outstanding, wish we had one in Socal. read more

Sidewinders is a go to for us as it is close to our house and has amazing apps (tasty and great portions). But I was incredibly disappointed with my meal on a recent trip. They have some amazing food but I do not recommend ordering the Cowboy Mac & Cheese. On the menu it is listed as "piled high" with pulled pork and crispy bacon. There was about 2oz of pork in the whole dish. I felt incredibly mislead. There was also no bacon. And the house made cheese sauce? Was more of a light cream sauce and did not taste like cheese at all. I will say that the fish and chips were very good though! read more

Service and food was good I recently went tonthrestaurant and the service was amazing! The staff was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed. They went above and beyond to make our dining experience enjoyable. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great service. read more

I've been to both locations and I cannot recommend this place enough! The decor is fantastic for any military fan, and the menu is diverse and reflects the unique tastes of the region. Can't wait to visit again! read more

Took my friend here for his Birthday. The food was great was happy to see a s vegan option for a burger would Be nice to see a vegan bun also. It is a little messy to eat with lettuce as the bun, delicious regardless. Our waiter Rio was very helpful and a great server! read more

I ordered a cheese steak sandwich. It was delicious. We sat at the bar. I told the bartender I had a flight to catch. The food came relatively quickly. Beers selection was good. All reasonably priced. The bartender could have used a helper... same problem everywhere. read more

The food here is consistently delicious, and the service is always friendly and efficient. Only complaint is that it's a touch pricey, but hey, you're paying for one of Bozeman's best! Overall it's a great spot read more

We love this place. Food is always great, service is always great but the service the last time from waitress Joby was PHENOMENAL!!! She was so friendly & her recommendations were spot on. This place is always crowded but for good reason!! Foods not great in Bozemsn but this place is one of the best read more

Been in Bozeman and ate twice at this restaurant. Hands down best fish and chips I have ever had, and I am from Washington! Atmosphere a 10 Service a 10 Greetings at front door a 10!! Will come to Montana again for this place read more

Food was good and atmosphere was spectacular, but the best part was the service. Kyler recommended me my new favorite beer and had an impressively extensive knowledge of all the local beers. As a San Diego native, craft beer is one of my greatest joys in life. I was pleasantly surprised by his ability to relate to me on that and give me such a great experience. Nicely done, Sidewinders. Way to hire superior talent! read more

Had such a great dinner! Thanks Austin H for making our experience such a fun time! When we had questions about the menu, he recommended the best things. Fireplace was so awesome too! read more
