Really good food and atmosphere in such a beautiful location! The Margaritas and drinks in general were top notch for sure. Sophie was a great waitress to top it all off. Would strongly recommend this place and we will definitely be back

Visiting Red Lodge everyone spoke highly of Bogart’s. Atmosphere and service was great. Ordered some margaritas to start out with and surprisingly had no flavor or taste of alcohol for the price you pay. We tried one on the rocks and one frozen. The one on the rocks had the better flavor than the frozen one. That’s why I give the 4/5 star. The food on the other hand made up for the drinks being less than satisfactory. We had a border dip as an appetizer. Our entrees were chicken fajitas, sour cream enchiladas, and chicken chimichanga. Definitely hit the spot with those choices! The service was great and would definitely return.

This place has really neat decor/ atmosphere. Was excited to eat here since it's our first time to red lodge. I understand times are tough and I fully appreciate the ones working in the staff shortages, but our burgers were so burnt that I had to say something (I hate doing this!) After cutting it in half, there were black chunks flaking off.. The waitress was apologetic and agreed it was burnt. She comped the burger. Asked if I wanted a new one but it had already taken almost 45min to get that so it was fine. I left unsatisfied, still tipped well, and just hope this can get better. After reading other reviews it seems to be a common occurrence. Good luck to you guys, it really is a cool place.

Absolutely delicious pizza, and wonderful burger too! Huckleberry lemonade is to die for!

Food was good that we did get but unfortunately they missed our pizza order and it didn't get made by the time our group was ready to leave so we had to eat leftovers from another table. Their pizza was good though and we did get 2 good appetizers fortunately which were also good. Caprese and wings. We didn't leave hungry but was looking forward to a couple pizzas we'd never tried before. Maybe next time.

I love that this place delivers because I have no way of getting around and they are always on time for delivery , super good food! My favorite is the chicken/ artichokes, olives & red onions. With white sauce. I can't eat the red sauce without getting a heartburn so thank you so much for having the presto sauce available. very delicious also their burgers are great I also have tried the fish and chips I have not yet to have had any bad experience great food!! Thank you Pizza Co ☺️

Fantastic atmosphere, beautiful building, and amazing food! Could it get any better then this? Yes pumpkin spice creme brulee! I love this place. When I come back to Red Lodge I'll have to come back!!!

I had dinner here with a buddy. We had Ribeye medium rare and Bison Meatballs. All delicious and the bartender/server Tim I believe from South Dakota originally was a great guy!! Highly recommend checking this place out.

The restaurant was clean and very nicely decorated. The food however was extremely disappointing. The ribeye steak, although cooked medium rare was poorly seasoned dry and lacked flavor. My wife had salmon which was terrible over cooked and dry. One of our friends had the pork tenderloin which he said tasted fine was a tiny portion for considerably expensive for the quantity. Sadly we won’t be going back.

Great Sunday crew. Local crowd. The cook was happy to make me an off-menu sandwich. Great selection of draft brews.

This place is awesome. We stumbled upon it after a longggg day of traveling. Our food was great and the service was even better. Bartender was great too. Friendly people. Hubby said the Philly cheesesteak was the best he's ever had. Would recommend this place to anyone.

Had the French dip and spicy chicken, both were very good! Sweet potato fries were a bit burnt but the battered house fries were perfect. Great beer selection too, seems like quite a popular place.

Every time we come to Piccola Cucina we think there is no way it will be as good as last time, and yet it continues to be the best Italian food I've ever had. The staff are incredibly fun and energetic, always making your meal a memorable experience. There really is no going wrong with anything on the menu!

THAT was amazing!! Best dinner we had in Red Lodge. Homemade pasta and amazing wine. Go here if you are lucky enough to get a spot.

Absolutely delicious gem in Red Lodge, we felt like we were in a whole new place. The food was amazing and our server, Zane was friendly and helpful. It was the perfect spot for a lunch date! Pictures: pasta made in a cheese wheel and the ravioli, they were our favorite dishes by far. Plus Tiramisu assembled at the table, and cannolis. We also had the sicilian rice ball appetizer and a caprese salad. The caprese was pretty standard, but everything else was incredible.

What a fun place for lunch. We ate on their patio next to the river. I got the fry bread, and my husband got the nachos. Both were delicious. I also got a root beer float...perfect for a warm day. Cute place. Good food.

Ok place. Customer service wasn't bad... but also not great. Food was just OK. We had a large group and mostly went with 6 orders of fry-bread tacos Note: this is a CASH only establishment, but they do have an on-site ATM (for a tiny place, out on the edge of this little town, it seemed a little odd 🤷‍♀️). Tables in the back right along the creek. That part was very pleasant. Do I recommend this place, eh not really, but for ok food a beautiful view, sure. Check it out. I thought the prices were OK just wish the food was better (and that customer focus perhaps a little improved)

"good golly miss molly" - CCR. The mushroom burgy is delish! The fries, delish. The soft serve ice cream...DELISH! Scenic spot to chow down and let the food comatose set in. The staff is "most excellent" - Bill n Ted. Oh and if you can snag a breaky burrito..."DO IT" - Starsky.

Amazing location beautiful scenery however, I ordered a medium rare steak. If that steak was medium rare I’d hate to see what rare looks like. Probably all four hooves attached. It had good flavor but lost a bunch after the second time on the grill. Could have used a third time on the grill as well. I called to make a reservation and in the background I could hear “they better be coming like right now”. Our waitress was very nice as well as the gentleman who was behind the bar. But some of the other staff were pretty rude.

Recently visited for a birthday party. Awesome location and a cool old building. I had ordered one entree and the wrong one was brought out. Since I was with a large group and did not want everyone to wait, I kindly said I would eat it. Very salty and not my favorite. Waitress was new and was nice but definitely a rookie!

Very cozy classic fine dining. Food ranges from incredible to inedible, and the service is equally inconsistent. I've had some truly delicious dinners here, but also experienced some catastrophes. At least it's never boring!

This was one of the places I really wanted to visit in Red Lodge and I'm so glad I did ! The food was beyond delicious with a wonderful menu full of options. The staff was exceptional. And the decor was perfect and matched the entire vibe. Will definitely go back if I'm ever in red lodge!

Great menu selection. Fresh ingredients. Beer and wine list was on point. Eclectic design and cozy atmosphere. Recommend.

Prerogative kitchen is a one of a kind gem tucked into the center of Red Lodge MT. The staff was very kind and attentive. We had just completed a long hike and were looking forward to recharging with a good meal. BOY DID THIS HIT THE SPOT! 😍 We had their burger, brussel sprouts, french fries, lobster bisque and then ended with their Toffee desert and lemon bread desert 🤤 talk about an orgasm for your taste buds!!!!! Best restaurant in Red Lodge hands down! Check them out 🙌🏾

Great choice for a coffee in Red Lodge. The beans are roasted right there on site at the back. Staff were friendly and the general atmosphere is welcoming and unassuming. Good place to kick start the day with some caffeine.

Very good place for drinks and a friendly atmosphere to sit and chat with friends. Very reasonably priced as well.

Great food. Really fine wine selection. Excellent service. Perfect ambience for a wonderful outdoor dining experience. Dog friendly, which was a first line requirement as we travel with our small dog, Leo. Highly recommend this restaurant. Indoor portion looked nice, too.

Great experience! Spent a few nights in Red Lodge last week and we stumbled (a few times) into this bar, and Dustin took good care of us, made excellent drinks, and had a great sense of humor! The Huckleberry Manhattan and the Corpse Reviver #2 were exceptional!

Food was good. Service was good+. Nice bar ambience. Everything was fine. I just cannot give 5 Stars to a bar.

If you haven't tried this place yet, go right now. The seasonal salad was phenomenal, we also ordered penne with Bolognese and a meatball, and the chicken parmesan sandwich. Everything was spot on; flavor, presentation, and service!

Fun little Italian place which stands out thanks to friendly and personable staff. The choice of local beers, both on tap and in cans, was tremendous. One minor complaint was that they ran out of penne (which is a problem for a pasta place) but they were really nice about it and I would definitely try it again.

Everything was delicious, I loved my chicken fettuccine Alfredo, it was creamy and soooo good! The bruschetta was so delicious and satisfying. 💗

Fast friendly service. Order at the counter, pour your drinks, get utensils & sit down at a table. Your food comes swiftly with a smile on paper plates. Portions are generous and high quality. This place has talented cooks making genuine flavorful Mexican dishes at good prices. Yeah! It is not US Midwestern, Tex-Mex or New Mexico style. Well done Red Lodge, MT! Fine dining on paper plates, who would expect that? Try their creamy shrimp or carne asada tacos . Fajitas & Enchiladas were also very tasty. Our group had 5 adults looking for a late lunch.

Had lunch here while visiting Red Lodge and I rather enjoyed the food! Customer service was ok. My only issue was that the tables didn't seem regulary cleaned... we watched several tables clear out and no cleaning took place at all despite turning the tables over for new arrivals... but it's more of a "fast food" feel, so I'm not sure it is an expectation. Would I go back. Not likely, but I did enjoy the tacos well enough, chimichanga not so much

Just love this place and love Ricardo and crew. Never had a bad meal there, always delicious! The amount of food you get for the price is great, too. Can't wait for them to open in their new location!

We just had lunch here for our friends 29 wedding anniversary. It was delicious. The Reuben and burgers were really good. Loved the beer flights and pearfication cider was crisp on this warm day. Great outdoor space with a lively clean atmosphere. Most of all, the service we received from Nashami was seriously one of the best services we have had in years. She really made our friends anniversary special. Thank you!!

Sam's Tap room is attached to the Red Lodge Brewery. Food is good. Beer even better. They have good indoor and outdoor space. Can handle large parties. If you are in Red Lodge, like tasting local Brew, make it a point to go to Sam's Tap Room and Kitchen.

We’re from Missouri. I know all about hype for the product but failure to follow thru. Around the Lake of the Ozarks those places are a dime a dozen. I read the reviews and we expected a really good product... the beer was good and the service was decent. The sandwiches were pretty good...BUT... The “house chips” are “Ruffles” from a bag. Do yourself a favor and go to the Red Box Car and get a real meal from the locals who care about giving the working folk tourists a good experience. Then get some local made beer from the grocery store to take back to the house to enjoy

Smokehouse burger. Get it. You won't regret it. Bacon Mac & cheese is amazing too. Also it's such a fun little spot in a great location, perfect in a small mountain town like Red Lodge. 10/10, I'll be going back probably every time I visit RL in the future.

Fantastic chicken! I didn't know what to expect when I ordered this item and was incredibly impressed. Beautifully smoked, most and crunchy on the outside! And their aioli with the smokey red potatos is garlicky and well balanced. I will DEFINITELY be back sooner rather than later!

If you are in Red Lodge, you will need to stop by Hardwood. The burgers are probably some of the best in Montana. They have adventurous flavors that could hit most of anyone's pallets. The pit potatoes are crunchy but soft on the inside and the curry ketchup adds that side flavor that is needed. The owner is incredibly kind and other staff are friendly to talk to. Overall, a great experience and we will certainly be coming back!

Excellent burger. I went all in and got the burger with everything on it. Lettuce, pickles, onions, peppers, jalapenos, fried egg, tomato, bacon and cheese. I would definitely recommend this place for good eats.

Food was OK, seemed a bit pricey for what I'm used to. Waited a while to be seated, but I think not staffed for the situation. Most other options had an hour plus wait. We're were able to start eating before then. The service was good at the little cafe in a bar.

Fun bar until one of the off clock bartenders got extremely hateful just because we wanted to sing and dance IN A BAR to a song WE PAID FOR. I don’t know what caused her to be so nasty and offended she could have joined us but instead she got so upset she made us leave AFTER PUTTING HER HANDS ON ME So be prepared to have an awful time unless you want Emily to assault you. Cheers!

I like how the service there is always quick and straightforward. The employees clearly know what they're doing and are excellent at putting together a good sandwich. Unlike other Subways I've been to before, this one is always much cleaner and more organized. I personally enjoy the steak they have there along with some fresh lettuce or spinach. It's a good place to go if you want a good sandwich made fast. Their iced tea is also pretty good too, and I would recommend it for a quick lunch break.

Tried the new teriyaki steak sandwich sauce was really good

Awsome Subway. Fast and good sandwiches. Great customer service.
