Dining With A View: Montana Style

When it comes to good food, does the decor and look of the restaurant matter?

Some people argue that the atmosphere of a restaurant is important. If that's the case, what is the most visually appealing restaurant in Montana?

Why Food Often Matters More Than Atmosphere

I'll be honest, when deciding on where to eat when we go out to a restaurant, the decor and appearance only matter insofar as is it clean?

I've had great meals in dingy little corner diners and truly horrible meals, which didn't match the price, in places that require a dress code to be seated.

To me, all that matters is that the food is cooked well and there aren't cockroaches sharing an appetizer with you. Still, I can appreciate a good view, which is what it feels like LoveFood focused on when they chose Montana's most beautiful restaurant.

Montana’s Stunning Views Make Dining Here Unforgettable

No one would dispute that Montana features some of the most breathtaking views in America. However, does having a stunning view actually enhance the quality of your meal?

It would seem that LoveFood focused less on the interior of their most beautiful restaurant in Montana and only on what you'll see out the window while you eat when they named The Grill at Sage Lodge the most beautiful in Montana.

They spent the majority of their write-up on what you'll see outside instead of inside and the quality of the food.

With beautiful views of Yellowstone River and Paradise Valley, The Grill at Sage Lodge resort is a stunning spot to enjoy a meal. Huge windows showcase the landscape, while dark wood and earthy tones provide the perfect backdrop for a relaxed meal. Menu highlights include grilled half chicken with garlic mashed potatoes, and Thai pork pasta.

The Grill at Sage Lodge isn't the only Montana restaurant with a view as seen in the gallery below.
