I've become a regular at The Shoe, and it continues to impress me every time I visit. My go-to…read moreorder is the grilled salmon, and the risotto that accompanies it deserves special recognition. It's flavorful and complements the fish perfectly. It's one of those side dishes that could easily stand on its own. Another favorite is the coconut shrimp. Sometimes I order it as an appetizer, and other times I make it my entire meal because it's that good. Crispy, flavorful, and consistently well prepared the marmalade dipping sauce makes it so delightful. I appreciate that The Shoe embraces its Montana roots with farm-to-table bison burgers and steaks. It's a great way for locals and visitors alike to experience something uniquely Montana while enjoying a quality meal. Oh, and western fanatics definitely check out the 'Lonesome Dove' decor! It's so fun and done with taste, I love the horseshoe chandeliers too! What really stands out, though, is the service. The servers are always friendly, attentive, and genuinely seem to care about creating a great experience. The restaurant is busy nearly every time I'm there, which says a lot in itself, yet the staff handles the crowds with professionalism and efficiency. I noticed some older reviews mentioning wait times, but those seem outdated. The most recent of those was many months ago, and from what I've experienced, it looks like they've built a strong team that consistently delivers both excellent food and excellent service. If you're in Polson and looking for a restaurant with great food, friendly staff, and a true Montana feel with an epic view of Flathead Lake, The Shoe is absolutely worth a visit.

Haven't been here since 2020. Came for prime rib and it did not disappoint. Arrived at 7 pm. Most…read morerestaurants don't have rare prime rib at this time. However this place had it and it was fantastic. Comes with two sides so we had a baked potato and risotto. Our server Sophie was fairly new and had the bartender open a bottle of Josh cabernet . It was great and complimented our entree. We shared the dinner and it was way enough. Generally when dining at our areas where we live we bring our own wine and pay a corkage Generally 10 to 15 dollars and 25 at high end establishments. I asked and their corkage is $35. Obviously not familiar with how things work. A corkage makes up for trouble of storing and serving wine. $35 is ludicrous and not productive to profit management. However run your business the way you want. Great views and atmosphere.

We came here with the party at 10. Excellent food, great service, we will definitely be back!read more

My hotel highly recommended I come here while I was in town…read more I am really glad I did. It's such a cool spot for Missoula. The inside has a log cabin kind of vibe. It's great food and steaks without being at all pretentious. Very on brand for Missoula. The crabcake is the 2nd best I've ever had. It was big and thick and full of fresh crab. I highly suggest you eat it with the arugula. It really adds that herby peppery flavor that you want. We got a couple cocktails. There is one with rum and banana. I didn't get pics, but it was so good. I got the huckleberry cocktail, and it was exactly how huckleberry should be. Not super sweet. We got the shrimp scampi, and I felt like it needed some pasta or rice or something. The only starch offered was potato or fries. The soup and Cesar were good. They didn't blow me away, but they were solid. This is why I gave 4 starts and not 5. The best part of the evening was our fantastic sever. He was fun and approachable and really took care of us. Everyone is super friendly and cool. I would come back here. 100%

There is no way this is anything less than a 5-star review. My wife and I have decided that as long…read moreas we live in Montana, an anniversary dinner at Harwood House will be our tradition. This was our second visit, and it only confirmed what we already knew: this place is a true hidden gem. It is well worth the drive for anyone looking for an incredible meal and a beautiful drive to get there. The menu is exactly what you want it to be--focused, high-quality, and ideal for anyone who appreciates a great steakhouse with a Montana twist. We started with the steamer clams; they recently updated the broth, and it is phenomenal. My only "critique" is that it's served with two small pieces of bread when you really need at least six to soak up every drop of that new broth! Last year, the Prime Rib and medallions were incredible, but you have to branch out to see what this kitchen can really do. I went with the Bison Filet--perfectly cooked, generous portioning, and served over delicious mashed potatoes and broccolini. My wife had the Peppered Bison Tenderloin Linguini; the flavors were layers deep and the portion was so filling that she actually had a great lunch to bring home. Our server, Jubal, was the highlight of the evening, honestly can't say enough good things about him. He was knowledgeable, professional, and possessed an impressive amount of patience. We watched him spend 15 minutes gracefully explaining everything from wine vintages to basic steak temperatures to a very demanding table nearby. He handled it with total class and never missed a beat with our own service. We certainly won't be waiting another year to return. If you haven't made the trip out here yet, you are missing out on one of the best dining experiences in the state.

Me and my boyfriend were just passing on our way home to Missoula and actually thought it was a burger place when we first saw the sign. No, it's actually Mexican. I was surprised, but I can't say no to Mexican food. We got 1 chicken taco, carne asada fries and a coke. The guy at the window was super nice and even threw in an extra taco! I wasn't sure what I was expecting, but it wasn't a lot because Montana isn't notorious for its Mexican food lol. Anyways, we opened the food and it looked/smelled really good. I'll tell you right now that was the best Mexican food I've had in Montana. I come from Portland, OR were you can get a taco like that on ever corner. It brought me back home honestly. I wish they weren't so far away because I'd be going there a lot...maybe that's actually a blessing in disguise lol. Also, the salsa was so good, packed with flavor! and the Asada was tender! I definitely recommend if you're passing by to stop.
