7 Best American Restaurants in Yellowstone National Park

“The staff were very friendly. The chili, hot dogs, and ice cream hit the spot.
Trying the local treats has left me completely obsessed with all things huckleberry.
Excellent Gift shop, a large selection of both souvenirs and grocery items. Adirondack chairs are available outside to sit back and unwind.
Centrally located near Snow Lodge and Old Faithful Edu Center.“

“We had the pleasure of having drinks at the bar and then eating dinner in the dining room.

The female bartender left a ton of room to be friendly, she was matter a fact with an attitude. The drinks were good though her lack of being cordial was disappointing for a bartender.

Our wait for a table was about 45 to 50 minutes when we arrived to put our name on rhe wait list.

The server and assistant to the server we're outstanding, Brendan and Mia great job!: We ordered the lamb lollipops along with the duck wings and the delicious date dessert, all were scrumptious and very unique!“

“We dined here during our stay and had a generally good experience. The ambiance is lovely and the service was absolutely top-notch. For starters, we loved the Chana Masala cauliflower soup and the Mediterranean plate. For our main courses, the eggplant napoleon was delicious, though the vegan bolognese fell a bit flat and wasn't that great. Overall, it's a very convenient and enjoyable dining option if you're already staying at the hotel!“

“As a national historic landmark, Old Faithful Inn is the most requested lodging facility in the park. Built in 1903-1904 with local logs and stone, the Inn is one of the largest log-style structures in the world. The towering lobby features a massive stone fireplace and a hand-crafted clock made of copper, wood, and wrought iron serving as focal points. It’s always been a dream to stay here and finally we did it . We were so happy . Highly recommended place while you are visiting the Yellowstone NP.“

“We wanted to sit down and be served while at the Canyon village and this was the only option for lunch.

We had the burgers and I was worried the Bison burgers would be too dry because they are a dry meat and the server mentioned that they have to cook them well done. I was pleasantly surprised. The burgers were juicy and tasty. The lettuce, tomatoes and pickles were very fresh. The fries that came with it were crispy and good. Which made me think the chili fries would have been great as well.

The food came out in a flash and my server (I think her name was Mylani) was very nice and helpful.

We did sit by the back door and I would recommend that they hold off deliveries through that door to a different time or door while people are eating there.“

“We read the reviews and knew there is limited seating. So we planned to buy the prepared wrapped sandwiches and sides in the morning, and carry them for our lunch after a walk on the nearby trails. The sandwiches were very good – they seemed fresh, had good flavor, and were at a reasonable cost. The staff was friendly, and the line moved quickly, so, based on our experience, we would rate the Bear Paw Deli highly as a source for prepared food. A reminder, though, to plan ahead for your seating, as there are only a few tables in the deli. If you park in the Old Faithful Inn lot, it’s only a short walk to your car.“

“My family of 4 had dinner June of 2026. The view is beautiful and the service was good. They were really busy, so it’s understandable the servers were very busy and the kitchen was backed up. But enjoy the view and the company you are with. My only complaint is paying $180 to eat a dinner with my family. It is the most expensive meal I’ve had in the 5 days we spent in Yellowstone. The menu is small, but the food was good. Kids got lobster Mac-cheese, I had a salad with salmon and my wife had smothered chicken. Everyone enjoyed their meal. We also had onion rings, and they were delicious.“
