I visited Madison Crossing Lounge the evening before running the Yellowstone Half Marathon, and it…read moreended up being one of the highlights of my trip. I arrived around 7 PM and grabbed a seat at the bar since I was dining solo. The restaurant was busy, but the atmosphere was welcoming and comfortable. For dinner, I ordered the Chicken Prosciutto Pasta with a side of bread. The pasta was outstanding -- easily one of the best pasta dishes I've had in a long time. The combination of braised chicken, prosciutto, mushrooms, tomatoes, roasted red peppers, and creamy parmesan-mascarpone sauce came together perfectly. Every bite was flavorful, rich, and satisfying without feeling heavy or dry. As someone preparing for a half marathon the next morning, it was the perfect carb-loading meal. I also ordered the Huckleberry Sundae for dessert. If you're visiting the Yellowstone area, do yourself a favor and try something with huckleberries. The ice cream, topping, and whipped cream were fantastic, and it ended up being one of my favorite desserts from the trip. One unexpected bonus was getting to chat with other travelers at the bar, including another runner who was also working toward completing a half marathon in all 50 states. It added to the friendly, welcoming feel of the place. Overall, Madison Crossing Lounge delivered excellent food, a great atmosphere, and a memorable dining experience. I don't hand out many five-star reviews, but this one earned it. If I'm back in West Yellowstone for another race or a visit to Yellowstone National Park, I'll absolutely be returning.

Excellent restaurant option within the Montage Big Sky resort which has a cozy ambiance with…read moremountainside views. We started with the smoked arctic char which came with gluten free (gf) seed crackers and roe. The char was extremely flakey and fall apart tender. Everyone's entrees came out shortly after and we had zero complaints other than the risotto being too salty. The staff graciously offered to rectify straight away by remaking, offering another dish, etc. Stand out would be the veal tenderloin which was tightly wrapped in prosciutto and came with seasonal veggies. Service is outstanding and thoughtful from start to finish. Examples include pulling out the chair for me to sit, offering to make dishes gf where possible due to my allergy, consistently refilling drinks, clearing table between appetizers and main course and bringing fresh cutlery/plates. For the wine connoisseurs, they have an extensive wine menu (basically a book honestly) and even have a sommelier on premise.

Excellent dinner and breakfast spot at the Montage. All the dishes were good, but a tad on the…read moresaltier side. Dinner service was fantastic as our waiter was very attentive and helpful; breakfast can be a hit or miss depending on how busy they get. Valet parking over at the Montage Food- 4.5 stars Grilled Venison loin- this was perfectly done. Not too salty; perfect balance with the sauce to really accent the fresh elk taste without being too gamey branzino- very well done as well. perfect balance of all the flavors with the vegetables and fruit added pork porterhouse- this was delicious as well. I did like the venison better because the pork did get a bit dry at parts because of how large the cut was beef tartare- really well done and an excellent starter bolognese- pretty good as well caesar salad- excellent presentation, but it did get a bit salty dessert- they had a raspberry mousse dessert and a chocolate peanut butter bar. both were excellent, but I really liked the raspberry dessert because of how balanced it was Service- 5 stars Food came out quickly and the servers and bartenders were really attentive. Bottom Line Excellent Italian restaurant at the Montage. Dinner was fantastic, but docked half a star because of how salty some of the dishes were. Breakfast was pretty good, but it can be a hit or miss on service depending on how busy they are

Service is counter-order only, and the employee who took our order wasn't very friendly or welcoming. One thing that didn't sit well with me was being asked to tip before receiving any service, only to find out afterward that customers are expected to bus their own tables. If you're going to ask for a tip up front, I'd expect a higher level of service. Overall, it's an okay stop if you're craving pizza, but the food and service didn't quite live up to expectations.
