Pete's Rocky Mountain Pizza — Wood-Fired Pizza and

Interior of a lodge-style pizza restaurant in Yellowstone National Park, with long wooden tables and warm pendant lights.

Wood-fired crust delivers a crisp snap and blistered edges as Pepperoni Pizza erupts with pepperoni oil and light grease. The white sauce chicken & spinach pizza offers creamy tang with brine, while Italian elk sausage spaghetti and buffalo ravioli give a regional sting. It’s a casual, family-friendly hub that gets loud with crowds, so plan for a 20-minute wait at peak times.

Comfy pizza standby offering classic pies & red-sauce dishes, with beer, wine & Italian sodas.
