M by The Alinea Group Debuts at Big Sky Resort

Nestled in the heart of Big Sky Resort in Big Sky, Montana, the highly anticipated restaurant, M by The Alinea Group, is set to debut for the 2025/2026 season. This culinary gem, featuring an exclusive residency by three-Michelin-starred chef Grant Achatz, promises an unparalleled dining experience.

The interior design of M by The Alinea Group is the work of acclaimed interior design firm Fettle, known for their projects such as The Georgian Hotel in Santa Monica and Cicchetti, Knightsbridge in London. The design aims to create something beyond a typical slope-side dining room, blending upscale dining, innovative design, and the grandeur of Big Sky into one immersive experience.

Previously, the space where M by The Alinea Group is located was home to a long-standing restaurant called Andiamo. However, the space was in need of a new vision, and Fettle's design approach has transformed it into a restorative sanctuary.

The design draws on the colors and textures of the local landscape to root the restaurant within the Maddison Range. The ceiling consists of undulating rustic locally sourced wood beams, and the bar top has a distinctly natural organic veining. Natural materials such as raw timbers, stone finishes, earthy hues, and forest-inspired abstracted patterns are woven into the restaurant's DNA.

The design details include subtle nods to the sense of expedition and adventure that comes with spending time in the mountains. Leather straps supporting the window treatments and heavy, rustic stitchwork along the greeter station are examples of design elements that echo this sense of discovery. The overall design approach is intended to be subtle, textural, and elegant, focusing more on beautiful detailing than being visually overwhelming or intense.

Stephen Kircher, Chief Executive Officer & President of Boyne Resorts, believes Fettle's cinematic approach and intentional design make them the perfect fit for this project. The exquisite service from The Alinea Group team is set to be a central part of the experience at M by The Alinea Group.

M by The Alinea Group will offer 3200 square feet of dining space, a 1500-square-foot kitchen, and a 1950-square-foot wraparound terrace with breathtaking views of the ski slopes below. The result is a space that complements its alpine setting and enhances it, bringing together upscale dining, innovative design, and the grandeur of Big Sky in one experience.

As the snow-capped peaks of Big Sky Resort prepare for another winter season, the anticipation for M by The Alinea Group grows. This restaurant promises to be more than just a dining destination; it's an adventure in itself, a testament to the beauty and grandeur of Big Sky.
