Have been to previous incarnations of Montana's for decades, from late-night bar visits to graduation celebrations, holiday buffets, post-boating soirees, and as a convenient dining spot when staying at the nearby Delta Hotel.
Would like to commend and recommend Montana's for excellent dining experiences in October 2025. The food was meticulously prepared, delicious, and reasonably priced. The riverside views are a boat-watching paradise. Sports on the big screens are much appreciated. The booths have privacy screens which create Oasis of private conversational tranquility.
Our servers were Lily and Abby, both personable, friendly and professional hostesses who created a welcoming atmosphere. They guided members of our parties through the complexities of the menu and created solutions which satisfied the most discerning palettes. Their enthusiasm was contagious and they conversed with clients about academic and travel topics. Their smiles lit up the restaurant and brightened our days.
We remarked that Montana's has become a marquee destination in SSM.
