Food was good, atmosphere was more lively than I expected, pricing was to be expected. We spent about $100 on an appetizer, two main courses and two drinks. We had the Octopus Risotto and Wild Boar Gnocchi. Would definitely get the Gnocchi again - it was so good! The octopus was a little salty mixed with the rich risotto and I felt like it needed just a bit more of the grapefruit wedges to compliment the flavors. Both dishes were beautiful!

The staff was super friendly and the food was absolutely delicious! I would definitely recommend the Sweet Corn Agnolotti.

I grew up Italian in New Jersey and I never could have dreamed of a place like this under Big Sky country. This is the only place I would even think of getting Italian from in the future. The calamari was cooked just so when so many cook it too long. The octopus just the same, being such a delicate dish I have not had such amazing octopus since my trip to Italy itself. It melted in your mouth. The risotto was perfect. The desserts were the crowning jewel of the meal. I was blown away and highly recommend this restaurant. I will be returning.

I was disappointed in the service and the food. I really wanted it to be good, so I’ll definitely give it another chance in hopes that I can give it a better review. We started with bread & butter. The bread, to me, tasted tough and stale. One bite was enough. I had hoped to order the bone marrow as an appetizer, but they were unfortunately out of it for our 5:30pm reservation. No problem. More room for pasta, right? I ordered the oriecchete rustica. The sauce was nice & flavorful, but the pasta itself was very thick and tough. This was not the fresh pasta experience I had hoped for. The ravioli bolognese was definitely the best dish at the table. The pasta was perfectly cooked, the ricotta was fresh, and the bolognese was rich in flavor. We also ordered the “ribeye” special, but it wasn’t a ribeye at all. It was a strip. It was flavorful, but not the tender ribeye we thought we were getting. The mushroom risotto that accompanied it, however, was delicious. The most disappointing part for me was the service. Our waitress looked sick, had red, watery eyes, and was coughing continuously as she served us. I truly hope she feels better soon, but I also wished she would have stayed home to heal instead of share the illness with me, my family, and the rest of the restaurant patrons.
While the various versions of rustic steakhouses on Main Street may be the stereotypical image of tourist Bozeman, every once in a while you just need variety - and perhaps a place that is warm, friendly, and comfortable without having to be so "Montana" image-conscious. We found Blacksmith Italian for dinner last night and had a wonderful experience. Our server was very friendly (thanks Justin), and the food was really delicious! I would definitely go again!

We had a lovely dinner here at the recommendation of Billie from Yellowstone RoughRiders (who we also highly recommend). It was a Saturday night and we didn't have a reservation, but they were able to seat us at the counter. We split the Cesar, Brussels sprouts, corn and mushroom agnolotti, and the squid ink linguine. Everything was amazing. Service was also impeccable. The only (very minor) critique would be for the butterscotch budino, which didn't seem to have the expected texture. Still, amazing meal and highly recommend checking it out. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $50–100
Dinner party of 4, my husband & 1 other loves their meals, the other 2 if us, not so much. My sauce was bland, but the chicken and noodles were excellent 👌. I'm torn, 3.5 is what I would give over all. Will try again, hopefully better.

It was absolutely amazing. The buzz of the whole restaurant was great! We didn't have a reservation, so we sat on the line of the kitchen where it was a bit noisy, but Absolutely amazing to see the kitchen work like they did!

The food is delicious. For appetizer we had the greens goat cheese beet salad which was excellent. Then the sweet corn and mushroom agnolotti and squid ink pasta. Pasta definitely tastes really fresh since they make it in house. The flavors for both were varied and tasty. Recommend reservations as they were booked for Friday so we sat at the bar. That was fine but if you want a table better call ahead. Price per person $30–50 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
