    Sweet Chili Asian Bistro - Lightly battered and crisp, tasty calimari

    Walking on a beautiful and quaint Main St in Bozeman, Montana needing a good lunch but not wanting…read moreto drive. Snow is lightly falling and the ambiance of Main St is straight out of a cool western movie sets. We slipped into Sweet Chili Asian Bistro after searching the web for a close by Thai restaurant. The interior was well decorated and only one other party of 4 was present, a concern! We were quickly seated and ordered the fried calimari and green curry with chicken, one of their featured dishes. The food arrived quickly and was warm. The calimari was lightly battered with a good exterior crunchy and a delicious plum like sauce. The green curry with chicken, carrot, zucchini and chopped tomatoes quickly followed. For being a featured dish, I found the green curry bland, watery and lacking flavor. For me curry sauce has a rich coconut milk taste and flavor. The sauce here was loose, and runny. Sweet Chili Asian Bistro has a great location, nice interior decor but the food here is not on par. When I think of Thai food, my taste buds begin to dance and salivary gland are purged to explodes. This experience was fine but I know their are additional options to try in the mountain of Bozeman.

Had my doubts about an Asian fusion restaurant in Montana. But everything has been authentic and on par with what I expect from an authentic Asian restaurant. We ordered the $75 set menu and it was mooore than plenty. The food were diverse from curry, dumplings, steak, egg plants, duck soup, mapo tofu, etc (clearly the chef knew his Asian culture) The staff were amazing and kind. The rooms were designed and lit just enough to feel intimate, cozy yet classy. 9.5/10. Coming from LA, this type of food would cost 100+ per person. I'll come back for sure. Btw the pictures don't do it justice - I honestly didn't think of reviewing..just about digging in.

The food looks and taste well prepared but I have always feel odd about it, as if the flavors are not always exactly right. It feels like something is missing. It's almost like one small ingredient is not there, so the dish is not quite the same as the real version. They also experiment with new dishes which is a huge plus, so expect a different menu every so often.

    I'm happy to be able to bump my rating up to four stars. We went back and had the chicken wings,…read moretofu summer rolls and chicken over vermicelli. The vermicelli, which on our first visit was served with bland chicken, is now what we think of when we want Vietnamese...great flavors. The summer rolls were fresh and tasty. The chicken wings were not as amazing as the first time but still plenty good.

    We came here for dinner earlier in the week because one of us was recovering from a nasty stomach…read morevirus and was desperate for some pho as she was making her way back towards food. This place has a terrible parking situation and was virtually empty when we arrived, but our server still managed to be MIA almost the entire time we were there. The chicken pho was too salty--and believe us when we say that it takes a lot for us to say as much. However, it was flavorful and there was a decent amount of meat. Our daughter opted for the beef pho with rare flank, and that was also pretty tasty with a rich broth that you could really taste the meat in. (Sidebar: we have been to dozens of pho restaurants in our lives and they always--always!--have a kid's pho option. Not here though! So we had to order her a portion that was three times what she would normally eat and three times the price as well.) The chicken broken rice dish was fine with its grilled meat, perfectly regular rice, and veggies. Nothing special, but it was what it needed to be. We got a couple boba teas for dessert and the canteloupe slushee was so sweet that it was gross, and the taro smoothie ended up being pure liquid because all the ice had melted. It wasn't very good. We almost feel like we can't complain because this is the only pho place in Bozeman, Montana, and we were lucky that there was even one! And the soup was pretty passable. So, three stars, as expected.

Not super casual but not super dressy. The server had fantastic recommendations for the food and took care of our large group. The sushi itself was so good. Not a huge variety in the rolls with a lot being fairly similar to each other but it was fresh and tasty and looked really nice.

    I'm always a bit nervous ordering sushi when the ocean is ~ 800 miles away. However, I've been to…read moreDave's now maybe four times over the past year. It's a popular place, judging by their tables almost always being full. There are a lot of choices. One think I really appreciated was how they clearly label, on the menu, what fish is farmed (and where it's from) as well as whether it's line-caught. The rolls have interesting names that don't really describe what's in the roll, but they're memorable and fun to read. For example, you might not know that the David Hasselhoff roll is: Crab, avocado, mango, and tempura fried jalapeño. Topped with hamachi, cilantro aioli, fresh squeezed lime juice, and green onions. There are other rolls, like the Carmen Elektra, and the Jack Sparrow. Regardless of what you order, you'll enjoy it. We ended up having a couple different Nigiri, Masago (a mix of 3 different roe), and four rolls. We started with Christmas Showers, which was interesting. The roe on top was bright red and very spicy hot, with habanero mixed in. After that roll, we had S'happenin', the specialty roll of the night (I don't remember the name), and finished with another Christmas Showers. The rolls are larger than most places I've been. They're all delicious, and the servers are friendly and helpful. If you get overwhelmed with the choices, the servers will happily pick for you. If you can't tell, I will definitely be back next time in Bozeman.
