We had the charcuterie plate that was a revelation. A reasonable price with a great variety of choices, including a sun-dried tomato bacon pate that made us sing. The cheese were good as well as the meat. A great selection of nuts too. We also had the jalapeño poppers and those were fantastic. There was a jam to smear on them that just made them God like. We had a white wine flight and a red wine flight and enjoyed those with the food. The ambience is very informal with plenty of places to sit and great service. The servers are very welcoming and explanatory of the wines. Would come back here again in a heartbeat. read more

We had dinner here after spending the day on a raft in Glacier National Park. We were SO hungry and tired, and were hoping to find some good grub and drink. We had th guac and chips app, and the veggie pizza without cheese. Both items were very good! We also both did a red wine flight. The wines were pretty decent, but there wasn't one in particular that I loved. Service was friendly and pretty quick. My husband left his glasses here, and we called them the next day and they had them! So we popped back in and picked up his glasses. Always appreciate a business that holds on to your lost and found stuff. read more

Had the Spicy Chicken Tacos. They were great. Paired perfectly with the suggested wine. Wonderful live music. read more

Super friendly staff and good food! The "Port Soaked Prime Rib Aujus" (aka, French Dip) was tasty and the "Baked White Wine Cheese Dip" was, as well. The vanilla ice cream was par for the course. FYI: They are quite focused on wines, which I didn't get around to trying. read more

It's in a weird location but the food and wine were very good. Hostess/waitress/owner was very attentive.

Not a typical spot you'd expect for wine tasting because it's right off of a busy intersection and it's in a strip mall plaza. The location is odd but there was plenty of parking spaces. I was a little afraid that I made the wrong choice to come here, but as soon as I open the door, everything is so clean, gray, comfortable and completely opposite of what I thought this would be. There were wine glasses used to light up the room and bottles used as decorations and a beautiful backdrop for selfies. Although none of the wines were made in Montana, there was a huge selection of out of state (and countries) wines to choose from. I did the $15 combination flight to try a bit of everything. I picked 2 whites and 2 reds. I love buttery Chardonnay so any chance I can get a taste or a sample, I'm drinking it! My favorite red was the Sangiovese. Ordered the baked wine cheese dip and the ciabatta bread was amazing with it. It was extra gooey and paired perfectly with my tastings. The best part of it was that my sommelier was also from Sacramento, CA! My hometown! It was great to see why he enjoyed working there and his love for Kalispell. read more

Trivia night on Thursdays is a blast. The charcuterie board was just alright. Excellent wines. read more

The charcuterie board was made from old deli trays at super 1. It has Craisins. And no joke, trail mix. The cheese is deli slices, there was 1 type of nut ( walnut) 4 slices of cucumber, no pickled items, no fresh fruit. And your motto is 'no great wine without great food.' If I had bought the expensive charcuterie board, I probably would have walked out when it showed up. I am equal parts angry and impressed at the balls it took to wheel out this frankenstein's monster of a "gourmet charcuterie board." read more

Great Ambiance food and great wines from around the world made at the winery with grapes from that region. The employees are fantastic.

Pleasantly surprised with the food & wine selections! It was a great lunch meet-up location.

Such a cute place! The food was absolutely delicious, and Barb was so friendly and fun. We definitely recommend a visit if you're in Kalispell. read more

I discovered this place 2-3 years ago. What a gem! The wine is so good, and they have lots of live acts, as well as fun events. I love the murder mysterious they put on, as well as trivia night. read more

The food and wine amazing I had the turkey Brie sandwich my husband had the Italian wrap both delicious. Great service we would definitely come again. read more

Stumbled into this wine bar for lunch. Excellent food, great service, lots of interesting wine.

I like the vibe of Waters Edge. They have a comprehensive, solid wine selection, especially the reds. The staff knows their wine too. The food is mostly tapas style. I prefer the hummus, it's vegan as far as I can tell. read more

My brother and I hosted a surprise retirement party for our parents at Waters Edge last week (~30 attendees). Angela was so friendly and helpful, answering all of our questions along the way, accommodating our party needs and going above and beyond with everything. The wine and food were great and they even made custom labels for the bottles of wine we gave our parents to take home. Could not recommend Waters Edge more! read more

Stopped there for lunch this past week. One of these eating-drinking experiences we have during our vacation. Chelsea was awesome with top notch service and excellent recommendations for both wines and food. Would definitely recommend if you are in the area to stop by. read more

Excellent wines and very good "bistro" food. The owner and the other staff are awesome. You can make your own wine label - either by the batch or just a single label. The quality is excellent and they will work with you until you're happy with it. Definitely recommend! read more

My husband and I have been here twice now. I'm having mixed feelings about posting this review. This is a hidden gem and we love having a quiet place to go for a meal and a glass of wine here in Kalispell. This town is so crazy busy anymore! We love the decor - it's spacious and comfortable with couches gathered around low tables, bar stools up front and lots of light. The choices of wine are impressive. Our first time we started with a flight - 1 ounce pour of 4 or 5 different wines. It was a great way to begin. We each found a wine we liked and ordered a glass along with food. The pizza was good - thin crust and nicely flavored. My husband got the prime rib sandwich and salad. He loved the dressing so much we bought the oil and vinegar they used. They sell it there or you can go to Columbia Falls 10 miles away and buy it from Genesis Kitchen!! The dessert of chocolate truffles was good with a beautiful presentation. The second trip I got a delicious Nebbiolo wine that I will probably keep ordering!! We split a HUGE order of nachos this time. Great value. We will definitely be back. read more

Great hidden gem! Came in for lunch shared a couple of pizzas, the hummus appetizer, and the bread and olive oil appetizer. The quality of their ingredients are top notch, nothing was boring, all extremely flavorful. Husband and wife owners were super friendly and knowledgeable. read more

So glad we stopped in today. We had the red wine tasting flight, so we got to try four 2-ounce pours + we ordered the olive oil/balsamic vinegar with soft dipping bread, which also included olives, pickles, and banana peppers. All of the reds we tried were good, but not spectacular. The olive oil/balsamic vinegar pairings were wonderful, but we could have used a bit more bread. The tasting room had comfortable seating and we were able to play a game of cribbage. It is located in a strip mall, so it was not very scenic. An outdoor patio with privacy would be a great improvement. Staff was very friendly and we enjoyed the experience. read more

Went to see Eric Alan play music and was amazed at the food selection that we devoured as we had our flights of wine. Found a couple of favorite wines and look forward to going back to try other food items and find another favorite wine. Great music, food, wine and atmosphere. read more
