Wasn't at Montana's yet but today I didn't have much luck. My boyfriend called into Montana's to make a reservation last sunday and asked the hostess if he can put in a phone number, she said "no" to him. I called a few days later (today) and she didn't say her name and verify the time. I messaged her manager since I was sorta close with her, fixed the reservation and asked her if she can reserve table 51 for me since the Hostess of tonight didn't ask for where I'd like to be seated. Big thanks To the Manager Mio to fix this problem and take action! If I was able to I would put 10 stars but 5 would do. Can't wait for date night with my man!

Jo My server was INCREDIBLE The staff were so friendly they were Johnny on it. They brought me my menus, I took our drink order not only that it was very timely but food was perfectly done. The ribs are amazing. The hamburgers are great. The brisket is fantastic! Kill perfectly done whatever the sauce was was amazing. They bought us extra coleslaw smiles. Laughs such a fun time. Wonderful ambience, friendly people / reasonable prices comparatively especially considering we couldn’t eat it all it was very large portions. My new favourite is the spin dip. It’s like a four cheese dip. It’s delicious. I don’t know how this place isn’t packed out every night. I certainly won’t be going back to Mr. Mike’s. Kudos to Jo & staff My friends & fam are from Montana -they would say well done!!! 🩵😎

The food is great! The service is absolutely terrible. The greeter leaves a bunch of people sitting there before he seats them. The waiter took our order, and didn't see him again till it was time to pay the bill. This place has potential, but the staff need to be retrained. Where do they go? In the back? There’s never staff around and it’s not even busy at all…on either side of the restaurant. To the cooks, great job!! Food is awesome.

too long didn’t read: -service good -steak ordered medium rare came out well done and took 30+ minutes : bad -new steak medium rare but still hard to chew : bad -potato smashers bland and tasteless : bad it wasn’t for your damn good of a server/bartender I probably wouldn’t have even accepted the re-fire on my order. Came in for a solo dinner cause I’m here for work, ordered the 10oz steak with potato smashers. Service was quick and attentive - I could see the server was also the bartender and had a pretty significant amount of tables So that being said, Service was pretty amazing given the circumstances. Here’s where it went bad, the potato whatever’s had zero seasoning in them and literally just tasted like bland potatoes with a blanket of melted cheese - wouldn’t get those again - my steak which I ordered medium rare came out well done. I cut the steak in multiple spots to confirm this - showed it to my server and he immediately took action and offer a fresh one to the doneness that I ordered originally. Mind you this was already 30+ minutes from the time I ordered so I’m pretty hungry at this point, new steak came out in under 10 medium rare; the quality of the steak was subpar, most pieces I couldn’t chew down and just ended up swallowing (pause no diddy) making this meal a pretty miserable and sad one, I don’t think I’ll ever be able to emotionally recover from this experience 😔

I like their food, I like their decorations and space. But sometimes it takes a lot of time for your food to be ready, especially time between appetizers and main food. Most of their staff are so nice but a few of them are not so professional. That I recommend them if they want to improve, it’s better to train them to talk with their customers and understand their needs.

Nice country style experience. Not a regular, but think it's a nice restaurant. Other reviewers say the service is poor, but I found the host to be prompt. The waitress, Victoria was very good. She did several checkups to make sure we were well taken care of. I had fish a d chips. The fish was a little soggy. My wife had ribs. She said its terrific. Would dine here again.

Went in for a late lunch with my husband. We were greeted by Shimon with a smile and promptly shown to our table. We ordered the chicken burrito bowl, chicken tenders and fries and a side order of wings. Everything came out quickly and was nice and hot. The chicken in the burrito bowl looked a little iffy (possibly under cooked, possibly just normal for that chicken) but everything else was great. Shimon provided us with friendly and efficient service and made our dining experience one of the better ones weve had at this location.

Food was okay, minus the fries being soggy and having no flavour. The service was awful. Super slow. Montanas is usually my favourite restaurant but this experience sucked. Seems like this is common for this location. Wouldn t recommend.

I have been meaning to write this review as this experience was months ago, but I will never forget how terrible the service was. I will never return to this Montanas, and the only reason I am writing this review is so others dont waste their time and have the same experience we did. The food was bland and tasted like it had been sitting out for quite a while and just had a foul taste to the point that I could not eat. The service was absolutely terrible. Water was not offered to our tabl, and we had to get up and get it ourselves. When food was brought out, condiments were not offered, and we also had to get up from our booth and walk to ask for some. Wait staff were uninviting and condescending. I cant believe the franchise doesnt know how terrible the service is at this establishment. Ive been to Montanas in Alberta and Saskatchewan, and they actually had properly trained staff. Definitely not worth the prices with the quality of food and service they offer at this location.

Nice looking place and service was great. Food was just ok. Steak had so much fat that more than half of it was not and could not be eaten. Salad was very plain with no vegetables other than lettuce and cucumbers.

It was my first time at Montanas, so I didnt know what to expect. Our server Jessica was amazing! She was really kind and recommended great sauce choices for my wings and ribs. However, the meat was not the quality we expected to get from a bbq restaurant. My partners steak was very chewy and hard to cut through due to a dull steak knife. My ribs were overcooked, the sauce was the saving grace for them.

Ordered the rib and wing combo. Worst ribs that Ive ever had. So tough, I had to gnaw them off the bones. Mentioned it to the server, but she just sort of shrugged and said that it must have been the last batch of ribs they received because I wasnt the only one to complain. I normally like montanas, so hopefully this was a one time thing. Im just very glad I didnt order the all you can eat ribs.

My boyfriend and I dined in on July 5th and had the pleasure to be served by Ashwini. She was an amazing server who joked around with us and made the experience even better. The food was great as well. I can t emphasize enough how spectacular Ashwini was. Keep it up!

June 22, 2024

This place is trash. Garbage service. Third time going and it again took over 15 mintues before they even asked for our drink order. Had to walk out a third time. Jokes on us for trying three times I guess. Wont be going back.

Ordered a brisket sandwich. Normally, brisket is tender, melt in your mouth goodness. Not here. The brisket was all gristle and sinew. It was like eating the worst roast beef sandwich. You cant just take roast beef, slather it in BBQ sauce, and call it brisket. At one point, Im trying to bite a chunk off, and its just not separating. Before you know it, this one massive chunk of meat slides out of the bun, and me trying to be polite in a public place, I decide to not make a mess and take it all into my mouth to start chewing. Still, its not coming apart. At some point, a piece of meat makes it to the back of my throat and my body decides its time to swallow. The trouble was, there was still sinew connecting it to the rest of the mass, and its not coming loose. So here I am, food hanging in my throat as its pulling down a massive piece of meat still in my mouth. Before I have time to think, its all coming down, and I damn near choke on it, just hoping I can muscle it down before it blocks my airway. At that point I was done. Didnt want to finish it. For me, thats rare, cause I HATE food wastage. We shouldve gotten it taken off the bill, but I felt bad cause the waitress was already run off her feet as they were so short staffed. But wait, theres more. The booths have zero padding and they are rickety AF. I could feel every movement the person behind me was making, cause it shook the whole damn bench, and boy, they were moving. I could barely keep up a conversation, cause every time I opened my mouth, the booth started shaking like there was an earthquake! In and out, stand up, sit down, do the hokey pokey and turn yourself around. It was awful! The fries were good though. Get the fries.

Not a great experience. My Kids didn t get their drinks for 20 minutes. We were charged $6 for their drinks. So I had to ask them to remove it since it s included, and we waited for a while with our plates on the edge of the table for someone to come by so they could get dessert and the bill. No checking up, have to flag someone down to get anything at all. Food was pretty good but the customer service needs major work. The staff was not friendly or efficient coming from someone that has been in the serving industry for 13 years.

Ordered sirloin steaks, they gave wife and I wrong steaks. They then over cooked them.. when I ordered medium rare. They then said if I wanted THERE mess up to be fixed that I d have to buy the meal again. They messed up twice and tried to make me pay for it. Will never be going again.

I have placed a curbside pick up order. Waited 30 minutes, then tried and call numerous times, no one answers. I went in waited another 5 minutes at the front desk. Finally a guy come up, and I explained the situation. He looked into a bag there and said oh here is your order. I said that this is unacceptable, no reply not even a sorry. You will loose customers if this is how things are being runned, and bad attitude.

Service is EVERYTHING. I give two stars because food is good, atmosphere great. Service...? Worst experience ever. We ordered steaks, one of which was specifically requested to be well done. The server appeared not to be able to understand this basic concept. Didnt ask how cooked we wanted our steak... we needed to specify all the time. When the well done was requested, no notes were taken until we insisted and specify this. Food arrived, and the server didnt know who each plate belonged to. Needed to pick our own. The well done steak was very reddish looking. It was immediately returned. Came second time, and the extra herb butter (as per original order) was gone. Instead, two small butter caps were added on a side. Steak was far to be well done. Most appropriate definition is medium-rare (see picture). Steak was returned again, and the server was confused and didnt understand what well done meant... Ladies and gentlemen... were in a steak house!!! We needed to specifically say something like: well done, means no blood, well cooked. You know, when you keep it on the grill much longer on each side, depending on the cut?? Came third time with another steak (meanwhile everybody else already ate their food at the table). This time was actually well done (finally!), but the server forgot to bring the coleslaw on a side (again, as per original order). When the side was brought back, the dish could have been finally eaten. End of the story: the bill was discounted 25% off the single dish, so just a $6.50 discount. To me doesnt matter if it wasnt discounted or not, or how much was paid for the meal. The real problem here is the service... you cannot afford this very poor service in a steak house, when a steak is the main order. You can have the worst food served in the best way, and youll be still able to go back home with a smile on your face. But no matter how excellent the food is, if its served with no care and professionality, the whole experience is ruined! I dont blame the single server, but who allows them to be hired in the first place, with no proper training (as far as I can tell). Just a quick reminder: when something like this happens, the restaurant looses three times. 1st, the customer experience is ruined and a bad review will be received for everybody to know (like this very one). 2nd, the customer will never come back, so the restaurant will loose the potential of the reoccurring customer. 3rd, the unsatisfied customer will share with the public their experience, potentially convincing other customers to choose something else. I dont care about getting reimbursed or getting discounts next time (there wont be), I care about this place hires competent servers and provides a good training for their employees. Im sorry to be so direct, but this is the bare truth. Thanks for understanding, and best of luck for the future.

The food was really good . Had the soup ,salad and sandwich special . The service was another story. We walked into an almost empty restaurant ,and we waited to be seated, there were 2 other people waiting too. They had been waiting awhile , after all of us standing there for awhile we decided to just seat ourselves,hoping that would get the servers attention since she wasnt coming over. There was only 2 booths being used the rest of the place was empty. The server came over and the first thing she said was it was company policy to wait to be seated and we should not have sat down . And she was the only one working . The other people who were waiting , got up and left . I said well you just lost customers . She walked away and out of nowhere another staff member came along. I would have left but we were from out of town and my daughter really wanted to eat there. I think Montanas needs to train there staff better . I guess thats why the place was almost empty .

Went for a birthday meal and enjoyed great food and great service. All the food was great but the BBQ ribs are some of the best you can get and we had friendly, efficient service and a fun night. Very reasonable bill for the amount we ate. Also really well set up for a night out with kids. My two loved drawing on the table and of course the moose hat and staff singing the birthday song make this a sure thing for kids.

Wish i took a picture of the absolutely pathetic steak I had last night. I would of sent it back but i was hungry after a 16hr day. The steak was a the most expensive one on the menu, a $37 ribeye that was maybe 1/2 thick as compared to the menu it didnt even come close to representing what I ordered. I came in about 50 mins before closing so I get its a late order but a steak at a BBQ restaurant should be the primary food that is above anything thats ordered on the menu. Luckily the mac n cheese made up for the massive short comings on the main but jeez guys that steak was beyond disappointing. Not giving a one star since the staff was nice and letting me dine close to closing time.

Had such a poor experience with our waitress, we were the only people in the whole restaurant for a late lunch and she didnt seem to care at all that we were there, waited 20 minutes for our order to be taken, and she never checked in on us. Even when we left there wasnt a single person in the dining area, only to see they were at the side of the building smoking. Luckily our food was good, since it was my birthday.

Went in for my friend s birthday lunch, and we left extremely disappointed. Got seated and was told our waitress would be with us to grab our drink order. Hostess came back and said the waitress was busy and she took our drink order and appetizer. 20 minutes go by and still haven t seen our waitress so my friend got up to see if she could find someone. Sure enough she was by the bar chatting. She did come take our order after seeing my friend get up. During the whole encounter she did not ask how our food was once. Luckily the food was good but the service was very poor, especially for us being the only table in the restaurant.

December 22, 2023

Longer delays for pickup always and they will say we are short staff,,, lame excuses hire people Or don t do pickups very disappointing and r disrespectful

December 22, 2023

Extremely slow service, meal took very long to get even though it wasnt busy. Waitress brought me the wrong order and argued with me that that is what I ordered. There was literally a hair tangled in the coleslaw. Another order wasnt filled completely. Made us feel rushed because they were closing early. All our food entries were cold. Would not return or recommend ever!

Our ribs and burger came at 6:05pm (an hour later) barely at room temperature, gravy had a film on the top of it from sitting. We walked out. We ordered before a large group, and we watched the group get there meal before us. We will never be going back to this Montanas in Fort Saint John.

Food was good. Was busy and clearly a bit short staffed but Savana stepped up and did an awesome job! She deserves a raise/promotion! Thanks!

This was our favourite date night place but whatever changed in management sometime last year has made this place heartbreakingly slow! Food was beyond late (1.5hours) and half cold, It was not like this last time we came here, Spoiled the ending of a great Father s Day. Won t be coming back untill they fix their issues. Grande prairie Montana s is still a good one though

Posted hrs are not respected at all! Was there just after 8pm they are open till 10pm, they said I couldn t come in because they are short staffed . I was looking forward to BarBQ for a couple of weeks, and drove 2.5hrs to come for ribs. Montana s really let me down!

Traveled from out of town and wanted to stop for lunch only to be turned away. We were told, not asked, to come back in 10-15 minutes as they were catching up in the kitchen. There were only about 3 or 4 tables actually seated inside. Wouldnt have been a problem if they would have simply asked us if we were okay waiting or told us it would be a little bit, but to simply say come back in said time is not appropriate. Would have been totally fine to have been seated with a drink but were completely turned away at the door.

Most of the dishes are very well prepared! Sometimes food gets overcookd. The current service is alright. Wait times for food could be improved. Staff is polite, and inviting. My kids, and I have a very hard time compfortably using the bathrooms...due to the high-volumes of air freshener constantly being used! Overall, Montanas is our favorite resturaunt in town, and we go as often as we can! Parking: Usually, plenty of parking. Kid-friendliness: My kids always have fun colouring on the paper thats on the table tops with the crayons provided! Thank you!

I ordered 2 full ribs with salads for take out to est back in the hotel. The salads were inedible, wilted and slimy. Obviously not made fresh. The ribs were undercooked and were cold. Definitely not fall off the bone. The corn bread was dry like toast. I asked for cutlery and plates and they only gave one set! I HAD 2 ORDERS. Was the other person supposed to est in out of the paper bag? Very disappointed in the FSJ location. Not impressed at all. Ive had much better food at other montannas.

One of the worst place with worst customer service, I placed an order on door dash it supposed to delivered at 8:00-8:08pm but they didn t prepare and the dasher had to leave and come back and when he back they still didn t even prepare it, i tried to contact restraunt, a lady picked up the call and she had no idea what was going on in there and then she handed the phone to a guy, rather than apologizing, he said he don t know.

Ive been to this restaurant many times & Im always excited to come back and eat their steak & ribs. We came in somewhere around 6:30PM tonight & ordered 2 Honkin Beef Ribs & 1 Fajitas. The food came in a little longer and we got one big beef ribs for my friend & the other ribs for me was small cut in pieces taken out from the bone that looked like scrap. I informed the waitress and she offered to change but I was so hungry I couldnt wait another hour. Didnt want to be rude but it felt disappointing & unfair when I left. I said I will still come back but I think I will never come back to this Montanas restaurant again.

We were seated fairly quickly and then sat.... and sat... and sat.... for 20 minutes. Restraunt had several tables with people eating and drinking, we are baffled as to how they managed to get service?! We didnt even get water... no one came to our table so after 20 minutes of watching a waitress serve all the other tables, we just got up and left... and we will never go back. We are staying in FSJ for a few months and so far - not impressed with this town. Please someone give us a tip on where to go for good food service?!

Ordered the Brisket Burger and Pot Roast Soup. The meal was cooked very well, but the server was no where in sight to ask for napkins. No napkins were supplied and couldn t find her in the restaurant anywhere to ask for some as well as more water. We could hear her and the staff laughing in the kitchen, but couldn t find the time to come ask how the meal was, so I could ask for napkin and water. Very unprofessional waitress in my opinion. I still left a nice tip, but with that it should be earned at least. I hope the next time is a better experience.

First off this rating system is hardly relevant. So this place had gone so far downhill that there probably isn t any saving it. Food takes way to long,comes out wrong,or overcooked. Steak was overcooked,taken away with the sides. 15 minutes later had a great steak , cold sides cause they were left on the plate in the kitchen to get cold and then returned to the table. Manager said don t worry,already took 40 % off your dinner Dinner special was 36.99 for 12 once strip loin with 2 sides Bill came out Strip loin dinner 42.99 Sides 6.00 each And then less 40% I have no idea who the hell they think they are fooling Honestly do not and will not recommend this slow serving rip off place Quicker to drive to Dawson if you want a good meal without the wait or the issues And this coming from someone who always supports local business Don t waist your time here It s unfortunate that the wait staff have to deal with bad management and kitchen Parking: Careful in the parking lot Most times is either iced or flooded with huge puddles

All you can eat ribs at the FSJ Montanas were amazing. Servíce was surprisingly fast. Tyler the manager served us and he was awesome. I was hesitant to go to Montanas because the restaurant in Langley was terrible but decided to give this a shot. Pleasantly surprised.

December 22, 2023

Went for date night with the wife and got turned away. There was a large reservation, but the sign on the door said it was first come, first serve. We didn t think it would be a problem because no one else was in the restaurant aside from the reservation, and they already had their food. Waited at the hostess stand for someone to finally notice us, just to be told nope, can t seat us. If they weren t taking any other tables other than the reservation their sign should ve said closed for private party. Definitely won t be back.

So, I actually ate here before, when I was visiting up here for work from Texas, the food was great, I returned just this Sunday December 3rd , 2023 at 6Pm, we waited for about 10 minutes before a woman dressed in black, I assume she was the manager, said to me and about 7 people that was waiting longer than I was: due to staff shortages we are no longer seating anyone. Did not even wait around to listen to feedback or offer each of us something for waiting so long just to be told bye, she turned on heel and walked away, total disregard. I am sure whoever owns this establishment would have terminated her on the spot, as I will NEVER eat at that establishment again ..

December 22, 2023

Had to wait 6 7 mins that s with pressing the ringer button to even be seated. We re finally offered where to sit. After we sat down two of us, waited close to 15 mins. We were given one menu and watches 1 waitress walk past us twice then another waitress walk past us once with not even any orders taken yet not even our drinks and truly the establishment wasn t really even busy really. So ea we just got up And walked out very unhappy customers terrible service. After several attempts by the owner saying will call at this time I made sure I was free but never any call. The calls came when I was busy and not able to talk not at the agreed times so things never got resolved. We attempted going again had supper didn t realize that the store was closing in a hour to say the least the food was mostly cold the brisket on my burger was cold my wife s ribs were almost cold and the servers didn t seem too impressed we were there that late to eat. We had to ask three different times for a carry out dish by that time we just paid and left. Will never go back to that location again in my life and truly don t recommend it to anyone. It s not worth it

We are from Dawson creek and we popped into Montanas about 2:15 on Sunday the 17th as I was craving some wings. When we got in we noticed it was quite quiet. We waited for about 2-3 minutes before someone yelled they would be right with us. We then waited another 5 minutes before we finally left. I was quite miffed as there really was not a lot of ppl in there eating. They must be very understaffed for servers. My family was quite disappointed as we don t have a Montanas in Dawson creek and we don t get to eat there often. Guess we will stick to grande prairie Montanas.

Ordered full rack of ribs and beans and house salad on door dash, 5-6 min drive from where I am staying. Ribs were tough, dry and lukewarm, salad was fine, baked beans were good but such a tiny portion and the cup was only half full. Might be better if you eat in at the restaurant, but not worth the 50 bucks imo. Had better ribs at other Montanas locations.

December 22, 2023

Meat tasted off, piss poor service waitress took 20 mins to bring our drinks, then never returned for refills. Fries were under portioned on 2 of the 4 plates. Nobody fished anything that had meat in it due to a wierd off taste & after taste. The only thing that was eaten were the appitasiers worst restaurant in Fort st john by far.

EDIT: *changed from 1 start to 4* We decided to try Montanas one more time and did dine in this time rather than takeout. MUCH BETTER!! THANK YOU! I used to be a manager in the food industry and I understand how it is so I dont usually leave bad reviews but I was very happy to be able to change my mind! We will be coming back juuust maybe not for take out! lol! Called for takeout put on hold for 10 mins someone answered put us on hold for another 5, we ordered, said food would be ready in 20 mins. We gave a Lil longer for food as they said it was busy, my fiance gets there and waits an additional 30 mins to get our food, he gets home open our food and its all cold, missing dips and the sides are all mixed up. My burger is so cold I have to heat it up in the microwave making it taste different than it wouldve originally. Our first dinner from Montanas in FSJ and will be our last! 80$ wasted

Absolutely terrible, ordered fish n chips along with coleslaw and gravy, for take out, was on tume picking it up it was ready and waiting, got home which is not more than 5 min away, to discover the food was cold and soggy, the batter on the fish was soft and greasy, the fries were all stuck together in a soggy pile, the gravy was cold and lumpy. Just an overall horrible experience after paying $45. Never again, wont be back, there are far better places that offer far superior and better quality food.

We used to really enjoy Montana s. People work hard for their money and when they get a mediocre meal, it s beyond disappointing. Our last experience with Montana s was bad and it was a while before we decided to try again. But we did, and learned our lesson for the last time. Our previous experience we got a beef nacho that was less than half the size of any nacho platter we ve ever received from there! We were shocked. We also paid for EXTRA cheese and there was barely even any regularly loaded cheese on there. This time, there were barely any toppings on our burgers (firecracker) and I upgraded to a poutine (extra $2.50 charge) only to have literally 3 small cheese curds on my fries. And they did not look fresh. Cheap on the fries too. We cannot dine in but despite that, we ve been trying to support the restaurants in this town throughout, only to get screwed every time (by chains). I know there are plenty of people who love it, and the restaurant won t go belly up losing us as customers, but we won t be back. *** I ve tried uploading my photos 3x now to prove my claims, but it just keeps giving me an error!

December 22, 2022

Ive always liked Montanas in FSJ. Theyre food was good and service consistent. Unfortunately they must have changed their supplier or cook cause theyre fries were terrible, gravy just okay and burgers were not that great. Fries and buns are definitely different and not an improvement. Usually theyre delicious! Took us at least an hour to get our meal. Granted it was Friday night so I wouldnt stop going just for that. But if you dont bring back the yummy food I will not be back. Please being back the yummy food!

We ordered 2 well Done steaks, fries, gravy and sautéed mushrooms. My husband ordered fish and chips. The waitress Sydney said they were sold out of fish. The waitress not once smiled, or greeted us properly. They brought out steaks the blood was pouring out of them not sure how you get well done and rare mixed up. I sent my steak back. And the mushrooms they sent out was mush. It was not the Signature sautéed mushrooms that they are famous for. It was disgusting the whole experience. The manager come out and took the steak of the bill but don t make up for not getting to eat, And the waitress was Atrocious.

I ve always loved taking my family to Montana s but the last 3 times we have been there have been horrible! The first time I took me and my girls there for dinner and they took forever to bring us our drinks we ended up getting our food before our drinks. Second time was for Mother s Day and we ended up waiting an hour for our food. Third time me and the bf went on a date night and we ordered appys well the appys came out before our drinks and we didn t get cutlery. There were only three tables so it wasn t busy and she did not check to see if we had cutlery or drinks or anything. We tried to wave her down and she ignored us so we paid at the table and left. I really love the food but these past three recent experiences is putting a damper on taking my family there

The cook must have been having a bad night last night. My Onion rings were burnt and I could smell the burntness right when the waitress putt the plate down in front of me. Im surprised the waitress didnt notice or smell it, maybe she was hoping I wouldnt notice. The ribs were overcooked and dried out and the wings had so much batter on it it took forever to chew down to the meat The table beside us sent there meals back as well. I know I wont be attending Montanas in FSJ again.

This place is horrible. Literally worst service I ve ever received! We waited an hour and forty minutes for our food, waitress said it was because they were so busy. We were one of the only tables there (like 3 others). I cannot stand eating here or ordering from here because you wait forever for cold food. Please eat literally anywhere else. The dumpster our back would have better service.

December 22, 2022

Ordered twice from here recently both experiences where not great First ordered a burger and chicken salad. The Burger was bland and raw Inside, as well as cold. The salad itself was alright but the chicken was cold uncut and extremely difficult to cut and eat. Yesterday ordered the firecracker burger and fish and chips. First of all the fish and chips where great and of good quality. The Burger how ever was not, it was incomplete lacking lettuce sauce and toppings. The patty was once again bland and flavourless. It s unfortunate that this place has become recently such a dive in quality of food and word around town is not good I am aware of multiple people who have had similar experiences. My suggestion let go the current individual who is creating such monstrosities back there and get someone who can actually cook even the simplest items like a burger.

Well, I will give good reviews when they are due, and Im sure I have given a good review for this location in the past. Tonight was far from good. We were seated by a new host who knew less about the layout of the restaurant than I did. Fine, new people are new people, but you are selling a service and an experience. I should not have to follow the person around the restaurant like a fool. It took about 15 mins to get acknowledged at our seats even though 3 servers had walked by our table multiple times. Right away, efficiency has been tossed out the window. We ordered drinks and they were fine. Beer was cold,coffee was hot and fresh. Our food showed up and the fries were white. They should never have made it to our table. Sickly looking pieces of wilted, cold oil, garbage. Sad. Then my wifes sandwich was a dry bun with meat and some fried onion pieces. No sauce, no nothing. Sad, and gross. My brisket burger was decent, but that was it. The server brought us a crispy order of fries on request. All in all, our $65 meal was less than average. The service was average. A good server would not have put those plates in front of us. There are no excuses for poor service or poor food in a franchise like this. It is poor ownership or management, or both. It was 6:30 pm on a Friday, and restaurant was at less than half capacity when we left after 7pm, to cook our raw fries in our air fryer at home. Sad story, but all true.

4 of us went after work, the nochos were awesome. All of us had ribs an chicken wings. It was disgusting. The ribs were overcooked an super dry like they were days old an reheated. The wings were worse, I dont know how they could be that terrible. Perhaps cooked several days before an left to sit to become dry meat or cooked in a dehydrator.

The in store food was delicious, fries were hot and crispy, had the brisket sandwich and it was ah-maze-ing Husband had the buttermilk fried chicken, it came how he wanted it (fries instead of mash), made to his liking. Drinks stayed full, we had regular check-ups from our server Angie (she s awesome!) and anyone helping with food drop-off. Overall great experience

Went here for dinner the other day and was underwhelmed to say the least. The front of house was a disaster with multiple groups claiming they were there first and no one was around to check them in/take a list. We got to our table and waited forever for someone to come ask about drinks and then waited even longer for food. The food arrived - some cold, some items (i.e. the meat for the fajitas) missing and the ribs were d-r-y. We hadnt been here for a long time and definitely wont be back. The worst part of the whole thing was the dad with his two little kids sitting next to us - they were there before we were and were just getting their meals as we were leaving. Feel sorry for the little guys but they were real troopers and didnt raise a fuss. The funny thing is they werent even that busy. Id say at least half the tables were empty so I dont know what was going on. Well just go to Mr. Mikes next time.

This restaurant apparently does not want to accept large tables... Reservation complicated then impossible. We will come in smaller numbers... Such a shame....

We try to take the kids once a month here (before Covid 19). This is our family fave place to dine at. Yearly we celebrate 5 birthdays here, again before Covid 19 Foods and drinks are most of the time superb (once if not twice, steak was a bit chewy, but other than that, nice meals for sure). Service is always top notch. Our servers are always friendly and check us often should we need refill and whatnot. We never have any prob for reservation and seating. Greeter always friendly esp. to my youngest who likes to chat. Ambience is nice. Please bring back the salmon menu, it was so good! Too bad since covid some menus gone, including our fave dessert.

This restaurant is getting worst, after 5 min waiting at the entrance and not even seeing a staff on the floor, I had to walk towards the kitchen. Finally got a seat, service was extremly slow, our plates came out barely warm, I guess its due to the waitress and not the kitchen. Ribs were also stiff.. It was not my first time here, but Im not sure if I want to go back again

Usually food is good here. But this time I ordered Cheese Nachos to go. I got nachos but cheese was almost missing in it. Also, food was cold

We have tried Montanas on a few occasions and truthfully been disappointed more than once and said we would never go back. In fact whenever we think of going out Montanas is never on our list. Took our godson and his mom and dad tonight and we ended up going there again and had an awesome evening. The food was really good but what really nailed it for me was our server. Angie was all i could hope for in a waitress. Friendly and helpful and tolerant of whatever question was asked. We will definitely go again and no disrespect to any of the other staff we will be requesting Angie as she made our evening very pleasant.

Go somewhere else like Silver Creek down the road.. Wait for 5 minutes and nothing. Walked out without talking too or being acknowledged by the staff. Guess they dont need my patronage EVER.

Good food, good service, surprised they are still limited to half-capacity and using traffic directing arrows when other franchise restaurants are offering almost full capacity dining.
