Restaurants near Firehole Falls

My wife and I have eaten at Wild Caddis a number of times over the years involving a previous different name, different management and staff. My comments relate to the Wild Caddis of the last couple of years. The atmosphere has always been great with wood floors and beams and a cabin like ambience. In the summer, a table on the back porch with view of gallatin river is tremendous. The service has been variable. Sometimes in the past you would give it a “C”. Last night (Valentines Day) the service was excellent: just enough attention, but not too much. Pleasant and with good recommendations. Food: I gave it a 4 out of 5, but I could be talked into a 5. I had the arugula and plum salad and a special with Grilled Barramundi and tenderloin with grilled asparagus. Both were excellent! My wife had the special lobster soup which she felt was great and the Huckleberry brined chicken. The chicken, we have both ordered previously and thought it tremendous and might be the best entree on the menu. Last night she thought it was very good but a tad over cooked (so I gave food a 4 because of the chicken last night, but it could have been a 5 because of previous experiences). I usually don’t write reviews, but Wild Caddis is often over looked in the Big Sky area and it should not be. Let me give my overall grade a 4.75. I strongly recommend the Wild Caddis restaurant.

Cozy, family friendly ambiance. Excellent wine list. Friendly servers. Venison was a stand out. Highly recommend getting a pre dinner drink at the bar right outside the restaurant & listening to live music.

The service was attentive but the food left a lot to be desired. I ordered a green salad with salmon and the fish was overcooked. $40 for a plate of basic greens and overcooked piece of salmon was a big disappointment.

Excellent food. Had baked Camembert appetizer, slow braised short ribs, trout and wagyu striploins. Everything was cooked to perfection. Chef easily accommodated a food allergy by coming out and talking to us directly and checked in after food came out to see if pleased. Personable waiter. Literally no complaints which is rare. Highly recommend.

We had so much fun watching the kids rodeo. The entertainment was so good. Old fashioned fun. The meal was excellent. So much food.
