Wassweiler Dinner House and Mercantile

The atmosphere was relaxing and great the waitress was excellent but I ordered the 48$ steak which was super chewy the carrots were not cooked my wife's bacon was cold. I could of eaten better at Shelly's for 1/4 of the price I do not recommend this place for the food

Best place to spend our Anniversary! Wonderful cozy restaurant with delicious food and great beverage options. Staff is highly knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Best service! Loved the candied bacon, Brussels, teres major and twice baked potato. This is a must try when you’re looking for a cozy, romantic dinner spot.

Fantastic dinner, service and environment. Our server was Sye, who is extremely knowledgeable on wines. Overall we had a great time and look forward to coming back! Highly recommend

One of the best fine dining establishments around. Took the wife for Valentine's and the Wassweiller did not disappoint.

This dining experience at this historic building with intimate seating interspersed throughout the original building footprint was my 2023 Christmas gift. Because I love to cook and, so, always seek new food experiences, my husband knew it would be the perfect gift. Dinner at the Wassweiler is an intimate gourmet dining destination experience that is well-worth the investment. The Wassweiler is expensive because the ingredients and menu are top-tier. The meal began with French onion soup for two, which was the Soup du'jours. I couldn't deduce what the secret ingredient was, but this soup was the most flavorful of its type I've ever eaten. Entrees were equally impressive. My husband ate every bite of the Terres Major plate with great relish. ( I managed to beg one bite of his meal. It was delicious!) I dined on a Bacon-wrapped filet mignon served with fresh vegetables on a corn fritter bed. In my case, I can report that what I was unable to eat provided a still-tender gourmet treat. The wine list, although limited, is impressive. Before we were seated, I noticed a recently awarded plaque honoring the restaurant's wine list near the entry. Finally, the dessert course. My husband delighted in the fresh berry cobbler. I enjoyed finding a rich flour-free chocolate torte on the menu. Both desserts were served with homemade vanilla ice cream on the side. The perfect ending to this truly memorable meal was my choice of decaf coffee, which was served in an individual French Press. Classy! Finally, kudos to our server and Sommelier, Christy. She provided knowledgeable, friendly, and non-intrusive service throughout our meal. For example, I expressed a bit of disappointment in the red wine blend we'd ordered. She brought a sample of the night's featured fine wine, which had similar blended varietals, to help me determine which flavors I prefer. I learned a lot from her kindness without a hint of "wine snobbery" in her kindness.

We had the bison steak Valentine's special. The cook was PERFECTION. The mushrooms were amazing. Also had the best shrimp cocktail with the best homemade cocktail sauce ever, delicious French onion soup, amazing creme brulee, and some yummy wine and beer. Sam was our server and they were personable, attentive, and had a great personality. I would love to know if this cute building is haunted btw. Thanks for a great meal!

This restaurant has always been a staple for me, although I can only really splurge like this once a year. My favorite place to eat in Helena by far and the service is always wonderful as well as the food.
