I can't even explain how amazing the food was! Here are some photos. Everything was perfect and so good. I haven't tasted food like this in so long. So beautifully crafted! They also accommodated my dairy allergy. We sat at the bar and watched them cook which made it even more special ! read more

When we saw that this place was called "diner," we expected a much different vibe. We were very pleasantly surprised. My sister and I made a reservation for a Thursday PM and this place was pretty packed upon entering, so I am glad we did. We ordered the Sourdough Pita Mezze Plate as a starter to share. Each item was well curated. The little orange tomatoes were so perfectly sweet. The pita bread and the hummus with chili oil was divine. For a main course, we ordered 2 dishes to share between the two of us -- the organic double cheeseburger and the gnocchi + matsutake mushrooms. The burger was simple, but very nicely done. The gnocchi was so pillowy and melted in our mouths. The matsutake mushrooms were also delicious and have a meat-like texture. I wanted a glass of wine, but the price at $14/$15 per glass felt a little steep. I ended up getting a beer instead. Overall great experience! read more

The food was good - not bad - but not notable. We had falafel, gnocchi, lamb dish; we also had a tomato salad that - after the server sold it as having delicious tomatoes - did not seem to feature tomatoes at all, having only a few sliced cherry tomatoes and being dominated by lbutter lettuce, blue cheese, and dressing (and was firmly a "side salad" size, meaning small). Ambiance was pleasant - we sat on the upper patio around 6-8 pm on a summer evening. I liked the furnishings and plantings. My husband felt that the tables were too close (we had a louder group near us). Service was good, low-key. read more

Excellent food, atmosphere, and service! The waitress we had was attentive, but gave us lots of space to enjoy the rooftop dining experience, and the menu options were varied and change every day. Really lovely experience, a little pricey, but good for special occasions! read more

A friend recommended Little Star two years ago and we made sure to visit again this trip. We ate here every night we were in town, and everything was delicious! read more

Service Disaster The food was good but the service was a disaster. There were four of us on a Friday night. One ordered a salad as an entrée, and it came out as a starter. Two entrees were served 15 to 20 minutes later. The fourth entrée came out after another 15 to 20 minutes. What are you supposed to do? The salad and second two entrees were consumed before the last entrée was served. Watching all the other tables, it looked like our experience was not unique. Unfortunate for a pricy restaurant, but the food was good. read more

The absolute best thing in Bozeman, and one of the most memorable meals we have had while traveling. We were skeptical that a place that calls itself a "diner" with wildly ranging dishes on the menu like banh mi (always a red flag for me, as a Viet), kebabs, tacos, and house-made pastas, could succeed. But boy did they. I typically don't like trout, and the flathead trout tacos bowled both of us over. I still think of those tacos sometimes. The menu has since changed, but we ordered an Asian sauteed greens dish to share for some veg, and it exceeded my expectations. Their kamut noodles are obviously their specialty, so we got tagliatelle that was the perfectly consistency and exploding with flavor. The only drawback is their drink menu is a little short, and I think a lot of the food would be boosted by a wine pairing. read more

Interesting spot. Nice manageable portions not always sure what am eating but seemed good. Roof top little chilly in the winter

Best food in Bozeman! We eat here at least once a week! The bar is awesome to sit at if you like to watch the Chefs work like true culinarians! These guys really know how to build complex flavors! Great job! read more

Amazing food and staff. Really fun environment and it is perfectly situated off main.

Loved the simple dishes done SO well. We had the Brussels sprouts ( perfectly charred) sitting atop a whipped tahini. Perfect. Loved the brown butter gnocchi (so hard to find) and the Asian pork belly ( not a piece left over). You done good. We'll be back soon. read more

Everything we ate and drank was delicious. Grilled sourdough tomato toast, fish tacos, tagliatelle, and hazelnut cake with a wonderful chocolate coconut pudding in top. The limeade was refreshing, gingery, and not too sweet. Service was exactly what was needed. The ambiance was young people with money and families eating out. It was the kind of restaurant where you feel like you could walk in, order anything, and leave happy. read more

Great vibe. Great service. Food was very good. It's farm to table which I've never really bought into, in that all food comes from a farm and is served on a table. The menu is limited which can be a plus but I would have liked more choices. We had the tomato salad which was nothing special. I had the fish tacos. They were a bit too spicy for me. I enjoyed the meal but they could step it up a bit. read more

This dining experience was everything we hoped for. From the friendly staff to the ambiance and of course the flavorful food, it was really great!! read more

Little Star Diner - Lamb Curry & cauliflower - Diners Near Me - Bozeman, Montana

First, I will say, the ambience was excellent. This is a small, intimate space with low lighting and great interior design. Their restaurant concept is also really admirable- they are family owned and very dedicated to serving farm-to-table meals paired with natural wines and local beers. We had great service and all of the waitstaff were very nice and accommodating. Our wine and beer selections were phenomenal too- so much so, that I took note of the wines I tried for later knowledge. All this to say, unfortunately, the food was average at best. We started with an appetizer tomato salad- $20 for a small plate of arugula, bleu cheese, and cherry tomatoes. Granted, the greens tasted very fresh, but it seemed very steep for what you actually got. My main entree was the gnocchi. This was highly rated in other reviews, but I didn't have the same 5 star experience. It came out cold, with very few vegetables on top (maybe a few zucchini slices and 1 mushroom) though the menu described it as being covered with several different vegetables? It was also described as "brown butter sage" but I didn't taste these notes at all. Other entrees we ordered included the burger (fine, but not great) and the pork belly (OK, but it was described as being on top of noodles and we received it on top of rice.) Overall, we left little star feeling really disappointed, as we had read such great reviews!! However, this place gets 3 stars for their exceptional staff, ambience, and wine/beer selections. I'm hoping the quality of their food continues to improve to justify their expensive prices, as I love their restaurant concept and am more than happy to pay for a quality farm to table experience in the future. read more

I did not take pictures and I am annoyed! The food here is excellent! The chef is of up for the James Beard award! We always get the fried carrots and pork tamales- so freaking good! Try to sit at the bar to watch them cook! Desserts are great too, and the have organic wine! 10/10 would recommend! read more

Visiting from out of town and met locals here. Charming restaurant. Our waitress was excellent very attentive, helpful and friendly. We started with the falafel plate and the sourdough both very tasty. I had the mushroom potstickers which were excellent. Very nice selection of vegetarian options and delicious read more

Service was awesome. We had the grilled sourdough with tomatoes as a starter. It was really good though felt expensive for $17. The spicy noodle salad and grilled chicken pasta dish was also great, but I expected more flavor for the price. Overall, slightly overrated and undervalued. read more

An adventure as menu changes daily. All excellent choices, with emphasis on fresh ingredients. The service was excellent from start to finish. The noise level was too high and the seats would benefit with padding. read more

Great "farm to table" menu items, but I would stick with some of the more common dishes (like the bolognese), because the they can get a little too complex. Great ambience, quite busy, so I would suggest making a reservation read more

This was one of the BEST fine dining experiences in Bozeman I have ever had. We had a rooftop seating on a beautiful day. Staff was super friendly! Wine selections were phenomenal. Tahini sauce with the falafel was so flavorful with a wonderful bite to it. And the freshest salad to go with it! Basil, fresh greens, lemony dressing. Delicious! Three cheese ravioli was so fresh and balanced with a perfect coating of the parmesan on top! Beautiful beautiful restaurant, will come back again! read more

Okay, adorable! Stumbled upon this place the other night and so glad I did. I regrettably was one of those customers who didn't realize it was near closing time. Montana summers will do that to ya. After I sat down and realized the time I told the waitress I was so sorry and that we will leave. She insisted it was fine and they were still open! Im so glad we stayed because holy cow this place did not disappoint. As a gluten free foodie I was in heaven. A little expensive but perfect for a date night spot. The atmosphere is *chefs kiss*. Will 100% be back to try more of their menu, the staff were delightful as well. read more

Giving five stars because my food was really good and I enjoyed the atmosphere. I had the opportunity to sit at the bar and watch the cooks work which is really pleasant. They keep a very clean kitchen and it's not chaotic. I had polenta with chicken, which was pretty good. The only negative comment I would have is that the staff needs training on how to use the espresso machine because they have a very nice machine but aren't using it as it should be used. read more

Are you searching for the best breakfast in bozeman? Look no further than Little Star Diner! It's cool urban and cozy vibe was the best place to grab brunch on a snowy morning. The staff was very accommodating and got us coffee while we waited for our table. We ended up getting seated earlier than expected. Coffee was super tasty and went well with our sour cream doughnuts & cherry jam! Entrees were stellar! The huevos rancheros with pork was so flavorful and had a nice little kick of spice. The polenta base was perfect for soaking up all the yummy sauce. The bread on the fried egg sandwich was 10/10, and the morning bun had great sweet undertones! You really can't go wrong here! read more

Epic - I only regret I can't give them 6 stars. We had a Sunday Brunch and sat at the bar. The service was attentive, communicative and just good. Sitting at the bar we got to watch the kitchen team prepare the food. They are meticulous and focused. When they hit a slack period they clean up and reset their stations. Very professional. They are taking very high quality ingredients and churning out some seriously tasty food. The ambience is very nice too. Lots of handmade no-nails furniture - is it a bit hipster, well yeah, but get over yourself. We had: Sourdough pancakes - excellent Fried rice - excellent Huevos rancheros - amazing the fried polenta is wow Breakfast burrito - not what I was expecting way more deelish Side order of a biscuit with rhubarb jam - best biscuit I've had in years. If you're in Bozeman, and you don't swing by, you've missed an opportunity. read more

Came here twice, once for dinner and once for brunch. Both times were excellent. For dinner I had the steak with chimichurri over a bed of delicious juicy sweet tomatoes. It was perfect. For brunch, the egg biscuit with root vegetables, a side of pork sausage patty and the hot chocolate, which was yummy and not overly sweet. read more
