Great experiences at this location! As someone who comes here a lot, I absolutely love the staff here! The hostesses are always so welcoming and bubbly and the food is amazing and this spot is just great in general. For sure recommend.
I am a very long time customer of this location & this is sad to write. This location has gone downhill so bad in the past year and a bit that I am no longer interested in coming. Half price wings was the highlight of this place. By far some of my favorite wings in the area. Since it has recently been acquired by new owners the food & service is horrible. I have sat at the table more times than I can count on 2 hands for 20-30 minutes waiting for a drink order, let alone the food after that. Maybe due to the consistent understaffing & lack of the bar side. The wings in particular often come with VERY little amounts of sauce on them. Fries have gone from a well sized portion to a very tiny side dish. When you ask for more sauce the server looks at you funny. It's a shame to see this happen here & to even write this. I hope for a change here as for now the other guys will get my business.
The service was terrible The food was cold .The wait time for our food was an hour. Food was served randomely, there were mistakes on the orders, etc. It took 2 1/2 hours from the time we arrived until the time we left. Nothing good to say here. It was my wife's birthday and 15 of us went at 3 in the afternoon. The reservation was made days in advance. They had ample time to prepar for us. We had one servrer for all our table and he was overwhelmed. There should have been at least 2 servers for a party of that size. This will be outr last trip to that establishment.
Great food! Service was fast and friendly. Didn't even know the server (lahela) was newish. This location never disappoints.
Absolutely no complaints about this place. Our food was served quickly and was excellent, definitely worth the price. Our server, Isha, was very helpful and kind, and made sure that all of our needs were met. Great atmosphere as well. Thank you for the great experience!
Aside from the food, everything else was horrible. It felt like nobody cared to do their job. I had to go to the front desk to ask for cutlery, then again to ask for crayons for the kids' menu. I had to ask for a lime for our tequila shots. We ordered our starters, which took about 40 minutes to arrive. Once we were done, we had to remind our waitress that she had not taken our order yet for the mains. Once the food finally showed up, I had half the plate of food spilled on me by our waitress. We were never asked for refills for our drinks or checked up on at all. The staff was preoccupied with talking amongst each other and just on their phones. There was definitely a massive lack of proper management. I rarely ever leave bad reviews, but this experience was something else. The two stars is just because the food was good, the experience itself lacked
***edited after 2nd experience*** Both Jordans followed up with me after my first experience and invited me back, and they definitely redeemed themselves! Delicious steak and the Caesars were on point! Thank you for the great service from the bartender (male, I don’t remember his name though)! Placed an order for take out using the website and was quoted 20mins for pick up… this ended up taking exactly 40mins which was the first problem. They did admit that the delay was because of a mix up with a GF Pulled Pork sandwich which I believe because it was piping hot when we got it, however the chicken in my chicken tacos was stone cold, as was my kid’s grilled cheese (the kids food was not as much of an issue). I still enjoyed the flavours of the tacos, but was disappointed again when I got to my side salad and at least half of the lettuce was going bad (slimy and/or browning), so I didn’t eat it. Staff should be quality checking food before it’s sent out…. Picture is of some, not all, of the bad lettuce
Kristine is one of the best Montana's servers I have ever met. Such a bubbly attitude and warm hospitality. This feels like the Montana's that I have grown to love. Like home.
Kyle saved my kids from a burning building. And let me borrow his Lamborghini to impress my wife. Best guy I ve ever met. You ll be lucky to have him serve you an exquisite meal at this location
Kyle shall with this competition
Give Kyle a raise 100%
Lahela, our server was amazing!! She took great care of us and food came out fast and hot. Would recommend!

Dietary restrictions: Low carb. Food
Absolutely terrible experience, from the service to the food. The temperature and quality of the food were appalling, leaving us genuinely horrified. We will never return.
I ordered the kapow shrimp and ribs. It was really good and the service was amazing. I would definitely come back again sometime.
great experience I had today I really enjoyed the service and food! I ate their new lobster Mac and cheese is so good! and their new lobster antojitos fantastic! The service from Kyle was excellent and fast!! I spoke to the manager priyam she is awesome very nice ! I highly recommend dining here!

Very good customer service. Food came on time...didnt had to wait long. Parking: No traffic Food : 5/5 |
The food was terrible, fish was greasy and so dark it was either burned or fried in very dark old oil. Chicken sandwich had no taste, chicken wrap was awful, no taste. Overall the food was disgusting and would not recommend dining at this location.
Kyler was amazing we had such a good time.
Good food great service for a Friday night Kyle did a very good job.
I have been to this place a few times soni don t know why I am surprised however this isn t the only Montana s I ve gone to I ordered wings and mentioned to the server that I wanted them to be cooked through correctly so I usually ask to have them cooked a little longer as I ve had them come raw before Three of the wings weren t cooked through I assume they are frozen wings Server kinda said oh well do you want a box Also on the website it states that there are daily specials but this specific restaurant doesn t acknowledge them I called another restaurant because I was kissed and had the time and found out it s just the owner that is creating his own rules Kinda sucks because it s local and kid friendly but this is another meal of countless ones that s been screwed up one way or another but raw chicken isn t cool
Samantha was absolutely amazing and friendly. Great meal
Kid-friendliness: Labels is awesome we love her 10 stars Recommended dishes
Our server, Kristine, was beyond fabulous!!! She looked after our every need. I have quite a few allergies and Kristine was cognizant of them all!! I would highly recommend Kristine and Montanas to everyone in the Alliston area!!!
I went to Montanas in Alliston tonight and got served by Kristine. She is beyond amazing. Her service is top notch. You wont be disappointed. She was so attentive that Ill only go back when shes working. Cant say enough good things about Kristine!
Such a great experience with our server Lahela She was so welcoming and helpful. Great atmosphere and great experience! Food : 5/5
Lahela s was AMAZING- took great care of us, and we definately were a hectic bunch with small kids. She answered all our menu questions, made great recommendations! Food was great
Typical sports bar atmosphere. Worth going of in town
Server Kyle
Isha was our server this evening at Montana s, and I cannot rave enough! Service was fast, friendly and enhanced our dinning experience!
Amazing, family friendly place to eat . Reliably good food and service.We go once a week on the weekend. If you want a great dinner place in Alliston this is the place to go . Tonight we had Kyle he was great. It was my daughters birthday and a large group of servers sang her happy birthday and gave her a cake. Our usual server is Kristine(Kris) and she is amazing, I couldnt say enough good thigs about her. Kid-friendliness: Chicken strips, pizza, and the kids pasta.
Kyle was Awesome!!
Isha was great!
This was at noon. The veggie tacos had no veggies in them. They had no brisket. They had no sour cream.. at least the drinks were cold..
Isha was great! Very kind and patient 10/10
We usually dont write reviews but we were pretty disappointed with tonights visit. We got seated and took a while to get approached to get drinks started, once we gave her our order we got the apps fairly fast, portion sizes were so small compared to any other time we had been, after what felt like forever we got our mains and they were small and not hot. We didnt bother letting her know because when we asked her for anything it would take forever or slip her mind . We asked for a water refill from two different people and didnt get it until i reminded her when we got the bills, and after getting the bills we had to wait over 10 minutes until I got up and approached a waiter and let him know were waiting on the machine, once again it slipped her mind we didnt bother with saying anything else, we didnt even want to ask for a box to pack anything else because we knew it would take forever.
Great place to eat drink and just wind down
Awesome service best waitress ever Elizabeth lots of fun and laughter. Never leave unhappy food is great thank you
I had Elizabet and she was an amazing server. Very nice and friendly to talk to and very efficient. I was very happy with the food. I love the natchos with the applewood BQQ Sauce.
We were rushing to head to a movie and we realized that we were hungrier than we thought, we came in just thinking we d get a fast appetizer, but our server Liz was phenomenal. She got a pound of wings, all of our drinks and spinach dip out in under 15 minutes for us so we can make it to our movie in time. I have been to many Montana, and this is just a super cool vibe, between all of the artwork and lights, TVs everywhere. It is the place to be in Alliston. Liz was super polite, full of energy and gave me an amazing drink recommendation. Because of Liz, I will come back again.
Ordered food for pickup. Portions were ridiculously small. The mack and cheese provided filed up a 1/4 of the plastic bowl. Spinach dip was equally pathetic. Taste of the food was good, but was left wanting. Is the portions for takeout differ than dine in? This wouldnt be accepted if it was served as a dine-in order.
everyone here is amazing, staff is amazing, food is great comes hot and fast. The host are one of the best parts of it Emma Hannah and Natasha are amazing!!
We had a great service with Sam!
The service was great! Huge shout out to Natasha and Sam. Did a great job, very efficient and friendly. Most definitely coming again!
My husband and I came to celebrate our anniversary and the wait staff was very attentive and the food was great! We will be back!
Nice dinner with grandson
Kyle was great! Good service Parking: Big lot Food : 3/5 |
So many things I could say about this place, but Ill go with what I find most offensive; Theyre hiring a Kitchen Manager for MINIMUM WAGE. If you wonder why your food and service are awful, its because the cornerstone of their business is being paid the same as a dishwasher. RECIPE is a plague on this industry.
Prompt and friendly service by Liz and great food.
Liz was a excellent server, very friendly. Hope to see her again
Kristine was an amazing server, enjoyed fully. Parking: Lots Food : 5/5 |
We had a great time! Our server Kyle was fantastic and made sure we had everything we needed. The nachos were delicious!
Liz, Chris, Christine, Sebastian and Kyle are all fantastic servers and Natasha is always friendly, seating us quickly and with space for my wheelchair and service dog. We love our visits to Montanas! Wheelchair accessibility: The wheelchair accessibility is poor as the doors have no automatic options, but once inside the aisles are wide and easy to navigate!
kyle was a wonderful server and very attentive to our needs! we will be coming back!
Had a great experience at this location. Food was great/ Liz was our server and she treated us extremely well, answered any questions we had and went above and beyond to ensure we had a good experience.
Liz is the best server we will be back every night !!!
Kristine was fabulous! Great recommendations and friendly service! We will be back for sure!

Great service very quick and very friendly Kris was fantastic. Definitely a spot i recommend for a date night or family gathering.
Our sever Kristine was amazing
We got the nachos, bacon mac and cheese. I wouldnt say there was anything spectacular but wasnt bad. Service was slow, we went for lunch, and it took a while to get our food/bills.
Greatest server weve ever had!
Poor service drinks flat food burnt 3rd strike Im out not going back.
Kyle was great really attentive Parking: Lots of spots Food : 5/5 |

Got a smokehouse wrap and a starter Caesar for takeout this past Friday night got there a few minutes early for pickup time and it was ready Got home and found the fries cold and only a third of the tray full of fries, also no dressing for the Caesar salad, got about ( 1/2 of the size of a chicken nugget ) in the whole wrap but lots of rice. It s going to be a long time if we ever return there for a meal again
Great food. Kyle was super friendly and attentive . Nice eve out.
Just enjoyed an amazing meal at Montanas in Alliston. If youre lucky enough to have Kyle as your server you are in for a treat! Thoroughly enjoyed their recommendations, banter and all over personable demeanor.

Amanda is the best server ever Remembers our order every time we go. She is super friendly. Food
Kristine was awesome. Good service and she sounded like a Disney princess, so I was already sold. Left a big tip and left with a huge smile. God bless her.
I ordered the big honk rib and the meat was super tender and very tasty. The chef earned this restaurant 5 stars for sure.
Nice to be here. Kitchen is good , waiter is good . Everything is good so far !!!
Makaylah and the rest of the staff put on an enthusiastic and energized hustle and did a great job of looking after a large influx of guests after a local festival was rained out. Smiles all around and everyone was in great spirits. Compliments to the manager as well for encouraging such a great team and welcoming atmosphere! We ll be back!
Makaylah was a great waitress. I would definitely return.
Typical Montanas good bbq food. Understaffed but good service. High tops could use a good clean. Food : 4/5
Makayla was very product knowledgeable and polite and pleasant. A very nice and friendly girl. We will definitely be back!
Great food and good service.
Stopped in for a couple of cold ones on a hot day. Amanda the day server was very attentive and friendly even as she appeared to be very busy
Thanks very much Very good food Excellent service Waitress was really nice Food : 5/5 |
All the poor staff and servers seem so stressed out and management is bad, food was stone cold which is really unfortunate since it was my anniversary dinner I was utterly devastated and disappointed, especially considering how expensive it was for our meals :(
Kyle was our server and he did a great job. Friendly service. We had the Canadian burger and smoked chicken nachos. Both were very good but we especially liked the nachos.
Oh brother this place sucks, literally if you wanna watch one person do most the work while everyone else just stands around this is the place for you
Absolutely an amazing place! Spinach Dip is my favourite thing right now!!! Absolutely amazing manager! I highly recommend coming here for dine in and even take out!
Excellent
Sirloin 10oz and full back was so much tasty.
Last night I ordered all you can eat ribs. It was very delicious. I really like it. I love Montana very much.
My server Maia Z made my experience here so lovely! My partner of 10 years proposed to me over a plate of fajitas and she helped him orchestrate the whole thing!! So thankful for her and the rest of the staff for a perfect dinner and a perfect night.
It was a great experience of dine in at Montana s Good food, quick service and proper hygiene that makes people feel good. Food
Great food and service
Kristine is sooooo cool. Went there with my family and we loved having her help us out! If you ever visit (which I highly recommend because of the amazing food, service and vibes), ask for Kristine and be prepared to have the best service of your life !! GIVE HER A RAISE OR A PROMOTION OR SOMETHING SHE S GREAT
Kristine was AMAZING! She gave us amazing recommendations and her service was spectacular! She s so funny and personable and she definitely made my night as our server! Highly recommend
My time at Montanas was truly amazing due to the amazing service brought to me by Kristine, she truly deserves a promotion and pay raise. She s one of the great things about Alliston hospitality!!!
Makaylah was my server on Tuesday and she was amazing!!! So kind and was very attentive to my table:) the meal was great and I will be coming back
Experience was great! Even greater with our wonderful server Samantha. She was extremely busy with many tables, but made sure we were taken care of
Great Food & Excellent Service
This Montanas restaurant ranks as the poorest in the chain based on my experience. It was disappointing to end Fathers Day at a table that hadnt been cleaned properly a clear indicator of what was to come. Despite bringing the issue to the attention of the numerous hostesses, who promptly tidied up the mess, the condition of the furniture was another concern. Tables showed extensive varnish peeling and the seat material was torn and cracked. Our interaction with the barmaid was the start of a lengthy ordeal. After placing our drink and food orders, our party of four endured a frustrating 50-minute wait for cold meals. Surprisingly, the restaurant wasnt overly busy, with several staff members idle. During this time, we observed them congregating at the front desk while dirty tables remained uncleared as customers left. When our food finally arrived, it was disappointingly cold. Despite our hunger, we struggled through it, with the cornbread ironically being the warmest part of my rib and wing combo. The fish and chips, as well as the rack of ribs, were also served cold. Thankfully, my partners salad provided a small saving grace. In my opinion, if youre searching for the worst Montanas location, this would be it.
