8th Street At the Ivy

Exterior of a lodge-style hotel building with a wooden pergola and yellow umbrellas in Yellowstone National Park.

Breakfast or dinner here is a texture-focused ride. The Omelette Wrap yields fluffy eggs with crisp edges; Crabcake Benedict stacks succulent crab with a silky hollandaise on a handmade English muffin. The Filet Mignon glides to a precise, tender center, while Baby Back Ribs deliver bold flavor with a touch of fat that lingers. Mountain views and Western hospitality frame a dining experience that earns its pace and price.
