| - As I walked into this restaurant, I didn't have high expectations. The parking lot was empty and the building was somewhat uninviting. Very little signage and the front door was very inconspicuous.
My wife and I were greeted upon entering and seated right away. There were only a couple of other customers in the dining room and a couple in the bar. Our drink order was taken right away and the waiter was happy and very attentive.
My wife ordered the pot roast, which came with mashed potatoes and mixed vegetables and I ordered the fillet medallions, which came with mashed potatoes and grilled onions, smothered in a mushroom demi-glaze.
Our meals were fantastic! My medallions were cooked a perfect medium-rare, the mushroom sauce was rich and flavorful but not too overpowering. The mashed potatoes were, well, mashed potatoes. My wife raved about her pot roast and she is not a big red meat fan.
One of the best parts of the meal was the fresh cooked bread. After our drinks came and before our meal, our waiter brought us a wooden plank with a little slice of heaven. I remember when I was young and my mom made bread. I remember the smell of the bread as I walked in the house after a long day at school. As he set the bread down in front of us, the smell of fresh baked bread filled the air. I skipped the butter and tore into a piece and it was amazing. The texture, the taste, the aroma - this bread was fresh and hot.
I must say I was pleasantly surprised with the Montana Meat Company. Not a great first impression, but , what a way to finish!
To my amazing fan Carlos L., the prices were pretty good. Our whole meal came to $38.00 before tip. Carlos is concerned about my spending habits - he thinks I'm cheap and should just stick to McDonalds. Have a great day Carlos.
