13 Best American Restaurants near Mammoth

“I’m giving this place 5 stars on a Yellowstone Dining Scale. We ate here two nights in a row and had the beef burger, the bison patty melt, the trout, the half chicken, and the chili. The burger was one of the best I’ve had in years… seriously. Almost everything is smoked or grilled and tasted freshly made minus a side of fries that came with one of the mains. Our server Max from our first night stopped by our table the second night just to say hi even though he wasn’t our server for the evening. The other staff were all very nice, and the ambiance can’t be beat. Sitting in the rocking chairs after dinner was an extra perk! Highly recommend stopping here for a meal if you can.“

“The serving team of Jackson and Ansel were the highlight of our visit! We stayed at three hotels on the Yellowstone property and dined at 4 total hotels, Jackson and Ansel provided a level of customer service and meaningful hospitality. They were both so friendly and engaging with enthusiastic recommendations for both the menu and sightseeing locations. Very thankful to have this experience and appreciate how Jackson and Ansel positively contributed to our visit.“

“This is where you will start to feel you are out of Yellowstone park, as you will see kind of normal civilization. At this point you will see several hotels and commercial buildings, and after this place there are no geysers, and it only leads to North entrance. Their food is decent here and are variety compared to middle of the park. You will be able to see the Mammoth springs from the restaurant and it has huge glass windows.“

“Sadly, this is a tourist trap! food wasn't good and it was pricey. Service was slow. While our server was very nice he seemed more concerned with a good review rather than making sure that was the true. I will say the outdoor patio, little bar and stage is very cool. Skip for meals, go for cool bevy and music.“

“Restaurant is always good and the food truck holds up to the same expectation. Good food, and customer service. Very quick as well.“

“I ate here on a recommendation from the nice lady at the local pot shop. Let me tell you the food was amazing! The bison Montana burger was out of this world. I also got an order of jalapeño cornbread to go which I’m just eating now next to a campfire near Billings. This stuff is so good I might have to run back to Gardiner for more before I head back to MN 😂“

“Food was great. Service was friendly. The cheese curds were amazing! Beer was cold and delicious. It was exactly what we were looking for.“

“My sister ate here in Gardner Montana and loved it. I got the pepperoni and finished it in one day! I’m at the airport today and had a slice of hers for breakfast and really enjoyed it. It heats up very well with the same great flavor. Employees were friendly too!“
