I think this place is over priced for Kalispell, Montana, and their new digs are in need of a face lift, but their food is good and they have lovely wine. Even if you just go sit at the bar and get to chatting with the owner, Mr. Scottibelli, a true Italian entrepreneur. His whole family works at the restaurant.

Drinks & Nightlife
This may seem strange, but the VFW or what we locals call the "V" is a hang out for locals. Some VFW's only allow members/veterans. This one is for everyone. It's clean, they have pool tables, music, full bar, cheap drinks, shuffleboard, but NO food. TV's, Golden Tee, Pinball and it's 21 and up only.

Entertainment & Activities
If you can, check out a game at Legion Field, just down the street from the house. Night games are fun. They serve five dollar hot off the grill burgers and it's fun to walk or ride bikes to the field and watch the boys take on teams from all over the state and Canada. Go Lakers!

Sightseeing
It will only take 30 minutes to get to Glacier Park. The drive is easy and beautiful. You can stop in Columbia Falls Super One Grocery Store and grab a togo lunch to take into the park. My favorite day hikes (there is a book on Montana Day hikes at the house) are Johns Lake Loop, you will get water, river, lake, forest, animals some hills but very easy and grandma friendly. A fun 1.5 hike with tons of spots to stop and eat your lunch. The trail head is right off the side of the road. It's a loop, so there is no redundancy. You won't see as many tourist on this hike. It's a locals secret. The next most popular hike in our family is Avalanche lake. Take bug spray, fishing pole, water
