Had an amazing experience at Montanas in North Bay. Busy Saturday night but they sat us quickly and very pleasantly. Our waiter, Jamie, was next level awesome! He had us laughing, playing hang man with him in between him running tables and talking about our upcoming wedding details, the dos and the don’t. Jaime made our experience amazing. You don’t get people like this every often anymore! The food was amazing and we are so happy with our decision to dine here!
If you have Jamie as your waiter, you won’t be disappointed. He really is the best!

Jamie is the best! He's great at hang man (the word is trout) and he knows things about tic tac toe that no one else does, and he's a great server on top of that. That's a five star package of I've ever heard one!
