Finding Good Chinese Food In Montana

In a state where there are more cows than people, finding a good steakhouse is fairly easy.

Finding solid Chinese food, though, that takes a little more digging.

Montana Has A Surprising History Of Chinese Restaurants

Most people probably wouldn’t think of Montana right away when it comes to the best Chinese restaurants in the country, but there actually is a bit of history here.

At one point, Montana was home to one of the longest continuously running Chinese restaurants in America.

Sadly, Pekin Noodle in Butte has now closed its doors, which is a big loss for the state’s food scene. But if you are wondering where to go now for good Chinese food, there are still some strong options out there.

Cheapism Names The Best Chinese Restaurant in Montana

According to Cheapism, which looked across the country to find each state’s best Chinese restaurant, their pick for Montana is in Missoula.

They landed on Pagoda Thai & Chinese, which holds a 4.4-star rating on Google and a 4.1 on TripAdvisor.

Here is what Cheapism had to say about it:

Though some impatient customers gripe about the wait, Pagoda Thai and Chinese Restaurant is busy because it’s popular — and it’s popular because it’s probably the best spicy food in the region. Pagoda makes all dishes fresh and authentic to old-world recipes. If you’re undecided, try the Thai basil.
