Fodor's Expert Review Lake McDonald Lodge Restaurants

$$$ Waterton Lakes National Park American

Editor's Note: This location is reported to be under new ownership and therefore this review may contain inaccuracies.

In Russell's Fireside Dining Room, take in a great view of the lake while enjoying standards such as pasta, steak, wild game, and salmon; delicious salads; or local favorites like the huckleberry elk burger or the Montana rainbow trout. Many ingredients are locally sourced, and there is a nice selection of cocktails, wine, and craft beer. The restaurant also offers excellent breakfasts, and box lunches are prepared on request. Across the parking lot, Jammer Joe's Grill & Pizzeria serves burgers and pasta for lunch and dinner. The all-day bar menu at Lucke's Lounge serves up burgers, sandwiches, salads, and appetizers alongside yet another great lake view.
