We all know better than to judge a restaurant by its exterior, but you should also refrain from judging one by its name. For example, the name East Shore Smokehouse might not sound like a space with art on the walls, the best outdoor patio on the planet, an incredible menu, live music and a non-stop party all summer long, but that’s exactly what you’ll find when you visit.

The East Shore Smoke House is located at 35103 Hwy 35 in Polson.
