One of the best pizzas I’ve ever had - the pear-gorgonzola one, and we’re going back for a second one while we’re still in town. Delicious steak too! Also incredibly friendly staff, going above and beyond to help. A really neat experience overall.

Staying at the lodge, we popped down for dinner. Staff is WONDERFUL. Is kid and adult friendly. Kiddo had the flatbread pizza which was fantastic. Gorgonzola/Pear pizza EXCELENT. Steak was good.

Cook and staff are amazing great food!!!!

Nice view, terrible food and mediocre service

Nice views from the patio. Food is awful (steak overcooked, potato undercooked), Service was poor. Slow and inept. Place is ok if you just come to drink.

Review: A World-Class Culinary Experience at Quarter Circle, Flathead Lake Lodge I had the absolute pleasure of attending the Spring Dinner at Quarter Circle and can confidently say this was one of the best meals I’ve had anywhere in the world—and I’ve dined across continents. Each of the five courses was not only masterfully executed by Chef Rob Clagett but also perfectly paired with wines that elevated every bite. The attention to detail, depth of flavor, and artistic presentation were simply stunning. From the luxurious foie and charred endive starter to the scallop pastry and rich venison tenderloin, each dish told its own story. The finale—a Gorgonzola Cremificato with shallot jam—was an unexpectedly divine ending. The ambiance was warm and inviting, with the candlelit table and glassware catching the soft light beautifully, setting the perfect stage for an unforgettable evening. This was not just a dinner—it was a celebration of culinary artistry and Montana hospitality at its finest. Do not miss this experience if you have the opportunity.

One waitress for 7 tables. She was disorganized. Couldn’t get around yo all the tables. Waited 15 minutes just to get a glass of water Left. Never going back

We’ve been going to Riley’s for over a decade. The first time they gave me food poisoning I let it slide because I’ve had so many good meals and good times there. The second more recent time was one too many so I’m leaving this review. It’s really sad because they have such a beautiful location and friendly staff but the food is not consistent. Especially for take out it’s like they just don’t care and send out undercooked food. At the prices they charge now it’s just not worth it.

I would give zero stars if I could! Place looks amazing but the waitress completely ignored my To-go order! Burger Med well no onions and fries isn’t hard. But I got a charded burger nothing on it and tater tots. Thanks Riley’s for that super expensive burger that taste like grill grates

Went here the first time and food, service, etc was phenomenal.

Popped in here tonight for a to-go order for two burgers and brought them back to my hotel. Raw as raw could get with NOTHING on the burgers. Brought them back immediately and showed the waiter.

Without checking I got the two meals back and walked back to my hotel. Opened the box to find out they fixed NOTHING. Burgers were still undercooked. The worst part about it was that they threw the patties that we ate off of back on the grill and put them back in the box. GROSS. Good safety is huge for me, and they failed. Night and day difference from the first time to now.

We had the pizza which was just ok. I expected more from a wood fired crust - it was a little soggy and flavorless. I couldn't taste any tomato sauce on my pepperoni and cheese either but the portions were large. My biggest complaint would be the awkward silence of the restaurant. They had a TV showing that they were playing music but you couldn't hear it on the patio or in the dining area. It wasn't a fun or festive atmosphere which is what I want when I go out to eat. The other guests didn't look happy. The dark walk to the bathroom was downright depressing. The service was outstanding. They were very quick to seat, take our orders and serve. It was probably 10 minutes or less from the time we ordered to being served. It's time for an updated atmosphere.
