Since 1995, Tupelo Grille has been one of the most distinctive dining experiences in Northwest Montana. The kitchen draws its inspiration from New Orleans and the American South, producing deeply flavorful dishes — gumbo, jambalaya, chicken and dumplings, house-smoked preparations — that you simply won’t find anywhere else in the Flathead Valley.
The atmosphere is warm and buzzing, frequently accompanied by live music that adds to the celebratory energy. The award-winning wine list is one of the most thoughtfully assembled in the region, and the bourbon selection holds its own. Tupelo has been a Whitefish institution long enough to be considered a rite of passage for any serious visitor to town — don’t leave without a reservation.
