There are a few places in Western Montana where my wife and I have enjoyed a romantic evening. Our first official date was at the Nine Mile House, which burned down back in 2018. We were sad to see it go.

Since we can’t go back to the restaurant where we had our first date, we have had to find other spots to make memories. We are always looking for new places to dine. Recently we had a tasty and enjoyable meal at The Stables in Missoula.
