“ This place makes me happy. Locals eat here for the ambiance and the fact that there’s not a bad thing on the menu. ”
“ The Patio is our favorite place in Missoula! The food is delicious and the atmosphere is great, but the people that work there make it a wonderful experience. We recently had a large birthday dinner there and their team treated us so well. We love the Patio! ”
“ We took a vacation and went here for my birthday. It was so lovely. The vibe is so chill and natural. The host and the servers are all very friendly and patient. I didn't feel rushed to order or anything. It was very hot and I totally ordered the cold soup. It was very refreshing. Perfect for this time of year. The food was yummy. I ordered the shrimp pasta dish and I think it could be a little bit more season but it was still good. I really don't have any complaints. Also we ordered the berry pie at the end of dessert and the bees loved it. The scenery is very nice. ”
“ This was my fiance and I's second time going to The Patio and we will definitely be back! The owners, Karen & Barrett, and the rest of their staff are fantastic. Great selection of wines and local beers. We got the Warm Kale Salad and the Seafood Mac n Cheese and they were fantastic! Look forward to returning soon. ”
“ Amazing family run restaurant. Great food, good service and a pleasant atmosphere. Wish this place was in my state. Will definitely visit every time I’m in Missoula. ”
“ Enjoyed an outstanding date night meal here on a Saturday evening. We were able to get seated outside right away. The setting, the service, and the food were all on point. We will definitely be back soon! ”
“ My wife and I moved to the Rattlesnake in October and thought we would give this place a shot. We were so impressed. This has been our new go-to and have been 15 times since. My favorite is the salmon and risotto or the steak frites, both of which NEVER disappoint. However I think it's worth it to give the specials a chance, as they have great ones. Honestly, they could serve hotdogs and grilled cheeses, and we would still come for the people. Karen and Barrett are so nice, and that passes on to their employees. ”
“ Rattlesnake Gardens isn't just a restaurant, it's an experience. They have this incredible outdoor patio that makes you feel like you're practically eating in your own backyard, but with way better food! Indoor dining is also lovely. Plus, they've got a small market attached, perfect for grabbing some gourmet goodies to take home. Honestly, it's the next best thing to whipping up a delicious meal yourself, but without the hassle! Their creative dishes are amazing, and the service is fantastic. The owners, Barrett and Karen, and their staff create a truly welcoming atmosphere. They have a excellent wine list, too. And for dessert, don't miss their legendary oatmeal chocolate chip cookies – they're incredible! ”
