Overview

About This Establishment

Yellowstone Grill is a cozy, no-frills breakfast-and-lunch spot in Gardiner. The chicken fried steak delivers a crackly crust and hot, juicy interior; the Mediterranean omelet is hearty and herb-forward. The Electric Thai wrap is a lunch option but not safe for those with nut allergies. Generous portions meet a crowd-ready environment; plan for a wait on busy days.
