    Regular (size) nachos added chicken
    Nolan A.

    Reasonably priced food in the Big sky resort. The burger was really good, it had nice uniformed thin onions, tomato and fresh lettuce. Fries were hot and fresh. Nachos were huge, but just your typical nachos nothing extraordinary. Overall I enjoyed it enough to go back a second time. Both times service was really good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Bar / pub atmosphere but children are welcome.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's the kind of place that they have self service water.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Minestrone soup

    Almost trying too hard. Went here twice in a week a colleagues (yes, I get the irony but you do what clients want). I thought the first time here that the selection and menu tired too hard but little sounded good to me. I ended up getting the minestrone soup. The second time, just got drinks. The staff was medium attentive and the place itself was clean but not anything too wow for the area.

    Didn't take any pictures of food because we were starving by the time we got it! This place was ROCKING!! Our first stop of the trip, got a few beers and some great burgers. The streak fries were bomb. And the waitress, Stephanie, was absolutely amazing!! She was so accommodating and worked so hard, literally running the show on her own! And a busy place, too. We went back a few days later to purchase some bourbon (yes, they are the local bottled liquor sales).... And had to try the Huckleberry White Russian.... Infused with huckleberry vodka and huckleberry syrup.... OH MY GOD. Absolutely delectable and beyond what we could have imagined. Yummmmy.

    Stopped here in late March, 2022. Came up for a few days and was excited to try this place out. I heard they have the best burgers on the mountain from our hotel staff at The lodge big sky. When we stopped in, it was 3:20. Food service on Tuesday and Wednesday begins at 4. We were a tad disappointed but we were excited to try some of their unique beverage offerings while we waited. I ordered a spiced cinnamon cider. It was delicious and had a sweet, cinnamon flavor to it (but not too overpowering). My partner ordered a hot buttered rum which was sweet and amazing as well. I'd rate the drinks a 5! When the kitchen opened, I ordered a gaucho burger. It comes with frito lays, but I chose to upgrade to tater tots ($2 upcharge). My partner got the cheeseburger with tots. Sadly, our food sat for about ten mins on the shelf while the server chatted with some patrons for an extended period of time unrelated to service (seemed like sharing about a side gig business). We never heard "order up" from the kitchen or a ding of a bell (standard for letting a server know the meals were ready) but either way, we wish this would have been different. Interestingly they didn't ask how we wanted the burger cooked and I didn't say medium, which is my personal preference and usually the standard for restaurants. The burgers were well done--and a bit over cooked. They were quitE dry. They were not as great as we would have hoped. We had great views. The drinks were decent. The food one okay. The service was eh (dining only) bar was on point. I think if we came back here, We'd definitely stick with Montana Jacks.

    What a cool place! We visited scissorbills while on a birthday ski trip to Big Sky. We popped in midday for a snack and some drinks and it did not disappoint. The atmosphere was great. They had live music playing, everyone was having a good time. The food was great, the drinks were flowing an the staff was very attentive. Really fun stop when you come off the mountain. Will definitely be back!

    Bison burger and fries

    Good place to refuel during a long days worth of skiing. Food tasted fantastic, portion sizes were a bit short of the expectation. Servers were extremely helpful and polite, but best to not go there when you're in a hurry. Very eloquently decorated! Would consider going again if I was in the area.

    Great atmosphere and great food too. One of the only reasonably priced places to get a meal and a drink on the mountain.

    Staff went out of the way to accommodate our family on Christmas Eve. Mom made Christmas Day…read morereservations- but blanked on Christmas Eve. They squeezed us in - a lovely lounge spot by the fire. We had two kids , 5 and 7, hangry from a day on the slopes - and they were so kind. Our server went way out of her way to work around my long list of food allergies. Food, service, staff, everything was top notch!

    Enjoy the drinks, pass on the food. You're welcome…read more Service is friendly, drinks are pretty good! Stick to drinks. Hot toddy. I don't know where the kitchen is, but "far" is my guess. Food arrives on room-service carts, and ours was all Cold. Not just temperate or not-hot, but room-temp. $25 Wagyu Cheeseburger sound pretty good? Nope. It wasn't even kept under a heatlamp between the era when it was made and when it was served. Edges were dry and cold, not even warm in the center, zero juice. I get it, resort prices, convenience of eating in the Summit Lodge, trying hard not to complain about the $25 price, but it was just a limp cold burger. Fries? Also cold. I mean, the least they could have done, after recognizing the long time passed between making the meal and serving it, is refresh the fries, no? Cold greasy fries, cold dry overcooked burger. One star at any price. It's not like there's a shortage of burger options right at the Summit either. Am I going to complain that it was $75 for three burgers at our table? No, not if they were hot juicy Wagyu Cheeseburgers, but then, these were not.
