Would highly recommend the tasting flight! It was great. Enjoyed everything that I tried!

The food was phenomenal and the service was great. It’s hard to execute a diverse menu like this, and surprising for Montana, but everything we ordered was delicious including the Cajun pasta, that Thai beef lettuce cups, the appetizers, everything. My favorite place in Big Fork.

Had the pleasure to enjoy whistling Andy sprits during a St. Patrick’s Day party… the huckleberry lemonade cocktail was fantastic A+

Had a really terrible dinner here at one of their theme dinner nights. Started off with the waitress being rude when we first came in to get seated. Her attitude continued through the whole meal. Ordered the porchetta, which really was just a terrible pork loin that was dry and no where near tender. My friend order the gnocchi and it was the tiniest portion imaginable. The prices were vastly out of touch from what they are able to accomplish. They also planned poorly and ran out of items in about an hour from start of service. Which the place wasn’t extremely full when we got there and continued to empty out. Lots of spaces to sit. I think the food coming out barely room temperature was the highlight of the meal. Wait time for the cold food was extra long as well. Saw another table that had ordered a flat bread that came out after their entrees and they were ready to leave by the time it arrived. Them leaving the entire flatbread should have been a sign that things weren’t working right in the back of the house.

I really want to like this place but after trying several times I just don't think it's gonna happen. Went to Italian night thinking that there was no way they can really screw it up, wrong! Staff seemed put out that I did not have a reservation despite the place being maybe half full. Taste of the food was pretty good but way overpriced and cold. Some items were not available despite being on the theme night menu and not even half way thru the evening. Not sure i can put my finger on it but I always walk away from this place thinking...meh! If I had to guess I think it's that they are trying to hard to be trendy. Know what you are capable of and do it well!

We stopped in this afternoon for drinks and a quick bite. The aviation was fantastic, the espresso martini was good although garnished with a dehydrated lime slice which was a first for me. Trout dip was delicious as were the short rib quesadillas. What really brought down our experience was the service. We felt… to be frank, unwelcome. Our bartender was cold, disengaged, and barely acknowledged us despite it being a quiet day with only two other couples in the building besides us. We could probably have been upsold on more drinks, bottles, and merch but felt we were not really wanted so left after one drink and apps.

What a great rest, bar and distillery experience just in an convenient spot besides the main road. Food was absolutely delicious, spirit and cocktails were right on spot and went really well with dishes. Most of all, service was magnificent!
Also a cherry on the cake, a craft distillery in the back of the restaurant. You just know exactly what you've drank. The owner was really nice and made a thorough introduction of his distillery. Impressive... A must visit restaurant, bar and distillery when you're in the neighborhood.

This place is very nice and great drinks but the staff is not helpful at all. Not friendly or welcoming.

Used to be one of our favorite stops when visiting Bigfork, but sadly the atmosphere has changed since moving to their new space. And what’s with a “Delivery Fee” unannounced charge added to the tab for staff bringing drinks to your table. I miss the old “Whistling Andy’s”!
Their bourbon was good but their smoked trout dip was AMAZING. I could eat it with a spoon. We left the dip bowl clean.

The drinks here wonderful, the staff is amazing and the food is great. Tried the sushi yesterday and it was fantastic.

Stopped in for a quick tasting. Bought two bottles and a T-shirt. Friendly people. We will stop again if ever passing through. Right on the highway.

First experience was great. Second time here was polar opposite. Drinks were given to us 30 minutes after ordered and poorly made without garnishing we previously really loved. Our food was complete trash. Our sushi with “yellowtale” was literally a roll of rice with the smallest piece of fish. The Goat sandwich bread practically crumbled in my hands, I cannot believe they would even considered giving it to guests. The staff this particular evening was under trained and honestly were just bodies keeping this place open.
