Bitterroot Bistro occupies a bistro-style dining room on South Willson Avenue in Bozeman's historic downtown, serving Montana food. Chef Gabriel Lopez, who grew up between California and Montana before settling in Bozeman, leads the kitchen; he came up through dishwashing and prep work before turning to cooking full time.
Trout is the dish most often pointed to by regulars, and the room has built its own following for atmosphere alongside the food. Service draws praise for its warmth and attentiveness on nights when the floor is fully staffed.
