| - Will Yelp! ever let us use 1/2 stars because this place is really 3.5 stars but not quite 4.
This was my 2nd trip to this location and 3rd overall to Montana's but my first lunch trip.
I like the layout since it is very roomy and usually not too bright. It was clean all three times despite two of the three times, it was overly crowded (always a good sign in a city with lots of restaurants).
We were seated by the window so a nice view of the outside (and it was sunny *sigh*).
While waiting for the server to bring our drinks, I noticed they have different specials daily; if you like ribs, then Wednesday is your day. If you like chicken wings, check out the half-price wings deal on Mondays. I, however, love their bison burger so I try to always get that. Tip: they will normally run out of the bison burger before 8pm or so so it's best to get it early in the day. I got mine with the chips (fries) and a Pepsi (which someone had turned up the carbonation on so yeah, that was AWESOME!).
The meal took about 10 minutes or so to arrive; not unreasonable.
The server was very nice and made sure that all drinks were refilled rather quickly.
I don't normally like to review a chain but this portion of the chain has a good thing going. The portion size is about right and the quality is pretty high (at least for the bison burger but to be fair, I have gotten that 2 out of my 3 visits).
I forgot to ask if they had onion rings (because I actually prefer those over chips).
All in all, it's a good experience to eat there. It is great for groups as they have lots of space including tables, booths, and bar seating. It's probably not too good for kids (if you are the kind of parent whom would have a problem with others drinking alcohol). The music is not too loud so you can easily chat with your tablemates or if you need to make a phone call. Another thing I forgot to ask is if they had free wi-fi.
So, forgetfulness aside, I'll be back and promise to try something besides the bison burger (uhm, yeah, right).
