Artist Point


The beauty and the mystery of the American Northwest is recalled at Artist Point -- a specialty restaurant decorated with dramatic landscape art from the era. The eatery offers an elegant yet casual dining experience with a light wood design, a high-beamed cathedral ceiling, and dormer windows allowing natural lighting to illuminate. The windowed restaurant allows a panoramic view of the courtyard, waterfalls and Bay Lake.

Traditional Northwestern specialties include cedar-roasted wild king salmon, a mixed grill of elk tenderloin, ostrich and venison and grilled buffalo top sirloin. Beef and veal also are on the menu, along with pan-roasted shrimp with orzo and chicken with a smoked pancetta potato hush and sugar snap peas. A Washington State or Oregon wine completes the dining experience.

The Art of Artist Point

Thomas Moran
The largest portrait is from Thomas Moran and towers above our main room. Thomas Moran accompanied the Heyden expedition of Yellowstone. With the help of photographs and his on-site sketches, Moran painted many images of extraordinary natural features. Heyden subsequently showed Moran's painting to the Congressman he lobbied to see a law passed in 1872 creating Yellowstone as the first national park. Moran was noted for his larger-than-life interpretations of the West during the late 1800's. The mural in the main room is from the Green River area of Wyoming.

Albert Bierstadt
The five 6' by 6' murals on the walls over the booth areas were inspired by Albert Bierstadt works. In 1859, his lifetime's opportunity came when he asked to join General Lander's expedition to survey a wagon route to the Pacific. This same route later became known as the Oregon Trail. Bierstadt spent the summer sketching in the Wind River Range and the Shoshone Indian country. In 1860, Bierstadt exhibited the first of his panoramic paintings from his Rocky Mountain sketches.
