I usually enjoy coming here. The food does take a bit longer to arrive, but most of the time it’s worth the wait. While the food is generally good, it’s not always consistent—my meal was a little dry this time, which was disappointing, but it was still decent overall. The staff are always friendly and attentive, checking in to see how everything is going and if I need anything else, which really adds to the experience. The atmosphere is nice and makes it a good place for families or hanging out with friends. Overall, it’s a solid place, just with some room for improvement.

Dirty cups, slow service and food wasn't up to the normal standard from past visits. I like coming here and usually have a great experience, unfortunately this time wasn't good at all. We went at 11am and got seated right away, but with only one other table that had customers we still didn't see our server for 20 minutes, and then another 20 minutes for a cup of coffee, that was in a dirty cup. There's more to add to our disappointment but honestly no point. We will not be coming back.

Had a really nice experience at Montana’s BBQ & Bar. We felt comfortable from the moment we arrived.
The food was very good, especially the BBQ. The meat was tender, full of flavor, and cooked just right. Everything came out hot and fresh, and the portions were filling without being too much. It honestly tasted like care was put into the food.
The service was friendly and easygoing. Staff were attentive, checked in when needed, and made the experience smooth without hovering.
The place itself felt warm and relaxed. It wasn’t too loud, the seating was comfortable, and it was easy to enjoy the meal without feeling rushed.
All in all,, we really enjoyed our visit. It was a solid, satisfying meal, and I’d happily come back again and recommend it to anyone looking for good BBQ in a comfortable setting.

Absolutely one of the the worst restaurant I’ve been to. Everything was dry and over cooked, terrible service. We waited 15 minutes after our meal nobody came to us, our waitress was too busy doing god knows what, I have to walk up and get my own doggy bag containers and they had to chase three different people to get my bill. My surf and turf came with Lobster jerky, over cooked and dry and HARD lobster tail, I couldn’t even chew it. The worst part is having to pay almost “Keg” price for this shitty meal. I don’t know how this restaurant stays open, either people are being too nice and not complain or have no food standards and it baffles me people would pay this kind of price for shitty food. Never going back and I urge any of you if you value your money and like to eat decent food, do not waste your time at Montana’s you will be sorry.

I went to this Montanas for a quick stop by before doing some shopping. Lady who asked for orders was really nice. It wasn't busy and there seemed to be a decent amount of workers. The service time was slow. Food wasn't crazy but no one in my party ordered any steak (which they are known for) but werent blown away by the things they did order. Getting the bill, food and drinks took much longer than it needed compared to busier places which ran smoother. The chicken burger was reported to be hard, the desserts for the kids menu was a hard cookie and prepackaged ice cream sandwich. Most likely won't be returning Montana's, Sorry!
