Our family came here to celebrate my father's 70s birthday and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. The food was amazing, the service extraordinary and their gluten free options were top notch! Our waitress Katie was incredible and made sure we had everything we needed before we even low we needed it! She was one of the best waitresses I've ever had! She's quite the gem!

Best italian resturant in GLACIER area. Worth the 20 minutes from Kalispell. Service was outstanding from the moment you enter. Real Italian ambiance. Menu selection is ample and will priced. Wine list is extensive. This is must when in the area.area.Dont forget the desert..Gelato, it devine.

What a lovely and unexpected treat! The restaurant was utterly charming! We started with drinks and had a house special margarita. I'm not able to do it justice so I won't try. It's tasty! Tonight's special was the halibut with fingerling potatoes, a sauce that had olives and capers in it, along with pine nuts and eggplant. It melded together beautifully, so delicious! For dessert one of us had tiramisu and the other a butterscotch crème. I preferred the butterscotch but both were well done. Katie was our server, she was excellent, very knowledgeable about the wine list. She and the rest of the staff we had the pleasure to interact with were pleasant, professional and helpful. Next time we are up this way we'll be back!

This is a must stop if you're ever in Whitefish. The ambiance and service let me know right away this was going to be an amazing meal. Our server made some recommendations on drinks and food and our table decided to split the cauliflower and a pizza as appetizers before ordering our own entrees. When the entrees came out, we ended up passing them around so that everyone could enjoy the flavors. Every dish was made with care and tasted amazing. Will be thinking about this meal for a long time!

This was a recommend from our wedding site visit and it did not disappoint! Celebrated here saying yes to the vendor and could not have been happier with our choice!! Staff was super friendly and never made us feel rushed at any time considering they were due to close soon after we arrived. From the host who was very welcoming and offered a preference of seating choice, to our server and bus person and runner - all made us feel at home. We shared apps a salad and entree with a bottle of champagne and two specialty cocktails - so perfect! And let's talk about their made in house bread .... WOW! We almost fought over the last piece lol. Everything was so delicious and made to order (so be prepared for a lengthy stay). Our server coursed everything perfect and again, didn't make us feel rushed at all. We chose to sit on the patio to enjoy the weather, it was such a beautiful day and even though there wasn't a view of the surroundings, it was still such a pleasant experience. Just like sitting in grandmas backyard while she whips up her homemade recipes from Italy! Highly recommend making time to enjoy this incredible little restaurant!

The menu was enticing, and the food did not disappoint. My husband got the rustic baguette and the Amatriciana. I got one bite of it, and immediately regretted my choice. The Amatriciana was absolutely phenomenal! I cannot recommend it enough! I got the Truffle Gnocchi. Unfortunately, the Gnocchi were chewy and dry. The sauce was good, but there wasn't enough to save the dry Gnocchi. The price was too high for the quality in my opinion. The staff was wonderful, very helpful, and very quick. The restaurant was very quaint and charming, and it was a very nice experience overall.

Awesome restaurant located on the Main Street of downtown Whitefish. We showed up on a Monday night shortly after opening with no reservations and were able to get seated right away. The interior is dark and moody, perfect for a date night. We got the Wild Boar Ragu and the special that night which I believe was a salmon dish. The ragu was delicious and I am still thinking about this dish more than a month later. The parpadelle noodles were perfectly al dente and chewy with a nice thick texture. The boar added a deep flavor and overall the dish was a very hearty dish that was perfect for the rainy evening. The Salmon was so fresh and you could definitely taste it. It came with a tomato salad and some cauliflower and corn throughout. It was a very fresh and light dish that was a great contrast to the ragu.

Such a delicious find in Whitefish! If you're a fan of Italian food, this is a must stop. Definitely recommend getting a reservation in advance. The inside is rustic, but still upscale and modern - love the large bars and visible pizza oven for the ambiance. Their patio also looked nice, but we sat inside. I started with a Bees Knees, which was cute and delicious - love that it was purple from the empress gin. We also shared a Cesar Salad & the Fruit Arugula Salad. Both were really tasty, but our group preferred the classic Cesar. I shared the Prosciutto Pizza & Pesto Pasta, both were rich and delicious. We both preferred the pasta, it's fresh and unique flavors made us just keep wanting more! Quick tip, ask for the noodles softer if you don't like Al Dente. All is homemade in house, and you can tell! My only downside is that at 7:45 they were already out of Lasagna, so we couldn't try it. But the wonderful service & staff made up for it by letting us know early so we could order the pizza instead. Overall, I wish this was in my town because I would eat here all the time!

Downtown Whitefish is super cute area and this restaurant is on the strip where there is street parking. We did not have a reservation but we're sat pretty quickly. Our server was super nice and helpful. We got the baguette starter and it was delicious bread. I ordered the seafood pasta. Very tasty. Lots of seafood was in it. I was iffy about the creamed cauliflower but it was a good add.

We had a reservation here while on our girls trip to Glacier... after that dining experience, we decided to come back twice more before our trip was over! Their pizza and pasta are extremely hard to beat. Service was always great, loved the ambiance. Conveniently located in downtown Whitefish. The perfect spot to hit up after a day of hiking in Glacier National Park!!
