  The Pork Back Ribs are the star here—definitely "fall-off-the-bone" tender and smoked just right. If you’re visiting on a Sunday, the Platter Deals (like the Pitmaster’s Combo) are excellent value for the amount of food you get. For starters, the beef nachos are a personal favorite;

  We have visited this place before, but during our recent visit, the food was nearly 45 minutes late. Additionally, it did not taste good, making the overall experience unsatisfactory. When the server inquired about the food, we told her it was decent, yet she ignored our feedback and walked away without acknowledgment.

  Food was great as always, but my server just ignored me , whether or not it was intentional I don't know. It hurt my feelings. She was seemingly the only one working a party of 30, while I sat alone at the bar, and nobody was willing to help or take my order . I sat there for a lonnng time with an empty water cup . There were a few fruit flies buzzing around that kept me company... I didn't get a dessert menu for a while, and then they didn't place the order for a while because it apparently had to be done by the "server". Anyway , the positive today was the food. The brisket burger was epic ! The skillet cookie was amazing and the potato skins were great but could have used more salt . I will be back of course, but hopefully not on a day when the other staff only want to do the bare minimum. I also didn't get the chance to collect scene points, not sure why.

  For a restaurant with such a warm aesthetic and promising beginning, it was a bit of a letdown after we were initially seated by a very friendly hostess. Though our order was taken promptly, the last time we saw our server was when she brought out the food. Noone came back to check on us for nearly an hour or to ask if we needed refills. Our children had finished their beverages long before they'd finished eating, and we ended up sharing glasses of water. We could've walked out the front door without anyone noticing if I hadn't gone up to ask a new server coming in to work the dinner shift for our bill. To be fair to the staff, we were there between lunch and dinner, so our server was also tending the bar and chatting up the patrons there. Our food was well below acceptable for the price; my BBQ platter was lukewarm and tasted like it'd been sitting under a heat lamp for hours, and my partner's mac 'n cheese was a small skillet of overcooked mushy pasta. The kids mini cheese pizza looked like it came from a Walmart frozen section. We also questioned portion sizing when we noted that a kids burger and fries was the same serving size as an adult veggie burger and fries. Overall, food quality was disappointing, service was lacking, and with so many other dining options in the area, I won't be going back to Montana's in Kitchener or elsewhere based on this experience. Edit: Was promptly contacted by the manager after leaving my review who apologized for our experience and offered to have us back. While we do live out of town, I appreciated the call and offer. Extra star given for the follow-up service and customer care.

  I recently enjoyed a great lunch at Montanas located at 740 Ottawa Street S, Kitchener. This restaurant showcases a rustic lodge-inspired decor filled with an abundance of wood and metal elements. This is an extremely laid-back spot to eat, and you'll be greeted warmly in your casual attire. No need to wear your Sundays best. Depending on when you arrive, this place can become quite a lively sports bar in the evening. The early afternoon is quite chill and relaxed. I started with the Tomato Basil soup that was good. I had the Steak and baked potato and coleslaw that is always the perfect choice for your classic "meat-and-potatoes" selection. I added a side of baked beans. I also ordered the steamed veggies that were green beans and peppers. Will return again!
