| - From what I remember, Montana's steak was pretty good a few years back. But the quality has really gone down. Not only that, but the service alone was just horrific. It's no wonder it was so quiet on a Friday night.
Upon arrival, there were about 3 other groups waiting to be seated. Not waiting for A seat, but waiting to be seated because the host/hostess was nowhere to be found. There were about 8 or so free tables, 3 tables not yet cleaned with the bill still sitting there. The servers and bartender saw and ignored the fact that there were people waiting. Hmm.. made me wonder if Montana changed to a seat yourself restaurant. About 8 minutes or so later, somebody finally came up to seat everybody.
Getting service was next to impossible here on a quiet Friday night. It took what felt like forever to finally get somebody to take our order, refill our water, and deliver our food.
Surprisingly, the antojitos were "drool worthy" as advertised. Not one bit spicy, but that's how I would've preferred it anyway. It was deliciously creamy! The cheese melts in your mouth just right - not too overwhelming. Not exactly an appetite opener but it was a comforting appetizer.
Both the medium rare Fire-Grilled Top Sirloin (8oz) and The Grand Sirloin (11oz) were meh. Flavour was definitely not there. We ordered medium rare but it was more on the medium/medium well side. Both steaks were somewhat hard and to be honest, nothing special at all. The sweet potato fries, mashed potato, and rice pilaf were probably the next best thing out of the whole meal. I definitely wouldn't recommend the Caesar salad to anybody who likes their croutons, because mine came with 2 pieces of croutons.
This may or may not be a great place to eat ribs (since they have the AYCE Ribs), but not a good place for steak.
