Bitter Root Brewing - Hamilton

We visited this restaurant after our float on the MF Salmon, and I enjoyed an incredible lamb gyro, which I complemented with their delicious watermelon feta pistachio salad. It was absolutely heavenly! I really wish we had a place like this in Eugene, where we have fantastic Thai food and more, but unfortunately, I can't find a good gyro anywhere here. And that watermelon salad—wow! I’ll have to attempt to recreate it at home.

I'm not sure if Bitterroot Brewery has changed ownership or management in the past couple of years, but during our last two visits, we found ourselves constantly battling flies that seemed determined to invade our space and our food. We've dined there many times over the years, and this fly problem was never an issue before. As we tried to enjoy our meal while swatting away flies, we witnessed fellow customers attempting to tackle the problem with an electric fly swatter. My wife and I frequent a variety of restaurants in the Bitterroot area, and this establishment has the worst fly situation we've encountered anywhere.

If you appreciate brisket that's as dry as a desert, you won't want to miss these brisket tacos! Just a heads up, don't expect to be offered a drink either! If you're eager to leave after your wonderful experience, be prepared to wait an extra hour for your check, and enjoy another fun hour waiting for your card to be returned!

Prices are high and portions are small. There is less than a handful, I'd say a pinch of fries in each of my meals when I order to-go everytime. The boneless wings are gummy and $15 for 8. They come with nothing aside from the celery and carrot sticks on the side. A slice of cheesecake from frozen is $9 and when I received it the whole tip was missing. So I got like $8 worth of cheesecake in this case.

Great selection of beer. All the food was amazing including the rainbow wrap, cheese curds, and fish and chips.
