They had a total gluten free menu with lots of options. The food was ok. We came here on our ski trip twice. Once for dinner, got the chicken, red potatoes and salad. The red potatoes were literally just whole cooked red potatoes. No real seasoning on them. I would try a different side if I went again. Once for breakfast, got the Denver omelet. It was ridiculously greasy. The toppings we're so good but the grease just ruined it. The cheese was also like kraft singles not fresh cheese. I just scraped all the cheese off I could. The hash browns were delicious! I wish I got a whole plate of those. Nice options but good quality was so so.

Our server was very nice and they told me they’d try their best to not cross contaminate my food. They had a separate menu with gluten free options and other food concerns are addressed on the back.

The food was so so, but I was super impressed bc this was the first menu I've ever seen that the gluten-free offerings are actually cheaper than the regular menu! Most of the time we end up with less food anyway, so that makes sense to me!

Our family had an amazing late dinner here one night after a long day in Glacier National Park. Our Celiac daughter had the ribs. Best ribs ever! The portions are large and service was great. It's like stepping back in time once inside, but a clean, fantastic place to eat.

Well, the owner is celiac and has trained her staff very well and I was told separate pans/utensils are used. Everyone is extremely accommodating...and there is a totally separate menu. I ate there twice and while I did get some cross contamination twinges both times, they weren’t severe, plus I’m ultra sensitive. But unfortunately the food was awful. I wanted to like it...they were so nice but it was actually barely edible and I’m sooo not picky. I really do eat anything and I don’t like fancy food. The broccoli was so over cooked it was pale green and cold on top of that. The steak was so dry and over cooked that I actually couldn’t believe they were willing to let it out of their kitchen, it looked so bad. It tasted as bad as it looked. Now on the flip side, my husbands fried chicken dinner was the best he had ever eaten which is why we went back for lunch the next day. At lunch, I had to pick out brown/wilted ugly pieces of lettuce out of my salad. Blech!

This is actually two restaurants: The Back Room and Nite Owl. They are very different!! The Back Room has a GF menu, mostly some bbq items and chicken and steak. The server we had was horribly unfriendly and the food was average. Three stars for Back Room. Nite Owl is more like a Denny’s type menu and had lots of great breakfast, lunch, and dinner options. Even had GF desserts from a local bakery! Our server was outstanding. Friendly, helpful, and fast. My 5 star review is for Nite Owl!

We ate at the Night Owl, which is the front restaurant. Is more like a diner, had GF buns. No dedicated fryer. Staff was nice but service was very slow. They had GF cake as well- looked good but we didn't try it.
