Montana’s BBQ & Bar

Barking Squirrel pulled from the tap leaving nothing but crap beer. Is it too much to stock something with a bit of hops and flavour? Support the local craft breweries
I don’t want the filler (dusted onions) but you get them anyways. But that made it to the plate where the steak option didn’t.
After a fourteen hour day– one just eats
I hate this hotel

This place is a fucking nightmare! As soon as the waiter drew his name on our table with a crayon, I knew I was in trouble. My first thought was that I would not be reviewing this place because I’m embarrassed to admit I’ve come here. It’s got this whole kitschy thing going on as if maybe I’m in some theme park eatery. So, really, it would be silly to expect anything good.
But even with my expectations set to «oh oh», I was still surprised by how astoundingly bad the food was. Ribs were cooked too quickly, so that the meat was still sticking to the bones. The «Texas Bold» sauce could be more accurately called «Windsor Blaise». Kapow shrimp were greasy salad shrimp that were about as spicy as flat ginger ale. Southern beans were mostly a thick, soupy mess of sweet sauce served with the odd bean surfacing occasionally. Hot wings were not spicy, but, like everything else the were salty, salty, salty.

Amanda and I decided we would spend Saturday with my parents and since we were in St. Catherines my father recommended we have lunch at Montana’s. It had been a long time since we had been to one so we decided why not. We had a great meal and we will definitely be going back.
We weren’t really sure what we wanted when we came in but thankfully they had the perfect option for us, the BBQ Sampler. Amanda and I split one and my parents split one. We liked everything on it. Ours had pulled pork (x2) chicken dippers and steak bits and my parents had ribs (x2) and the steak and chicken as well. For our sides we had salad, sweet potato fries and fried pickles. Everything was great. The chicken was moist and the pulled pork was just awesome!
As for value it was great. The serving sizes of each item were bigger then I had expected out of a sampler and we ended up full and taking some home. We will definitely be back to get this again.

We all had chicken dishes and everyone left full and happy. The staff were friendly and attentive. I would definitely recommend the Smoked Bourbon Mango Lemonade!

Typical franchise food with ribs and wings are the specialty. If you can eat a lot. Then go for the all you can eat ribs.

The service was very slow (food was delivered nearly cold) and the server kept forgetting things despite the place being 80% empty. I found the quality of food and portions were not worth the price. I only ever come here for lunch once in a while but I will not return again for dinner or perhaps this location.

Its Chili’s
but with more beers, worse beers, and less healthy stuff on the menu.
But the ribs and burgers could be very good.
I have no way of knowing.
A half an hour into my stay (with no food yet)
they dumped chlorine cleaner on the floor and started cleaning.
Everything smelled like bleach — and the chemical stink permeated most of the restaurant.
The room became unfit for the public consumption of food —
I cancelled my order and walked out.

It was one of the most disappointing places we have ever been to. High price for a little food. The flavor was ok nothing great and mashed potatoes came out smaller then a scoop of ice cream. Felt like I was being ripped off

There is one other review as of this writing, and it’s worth a read.
As you can see from the other review, the performance/​quality of this Montana’s is erratic. It seems like they have some poor choice in staff working at times.
I ordered steak & ribs. Asked for my steak to be done medium-​well. It was overcooked, dry, and far from tender. My friend with whom I went said that last time his steak was excellent. My ribs were really good.
So, as per the other review, stick to what Montana’s is known for — ribs — anything else seems like a gamble (except for stuff like pop/​soda which would be incredibly pathetic to screw up).
There are plenty of other places to eat in the area, so use your Unilocal powers and find something better, unless you are on a mission for ribs.

Cheesy décor (how do they dust it?!), annoying birthday songs, and some of the best ribs around! What more could you want?
Stick with the ribs, because other dishes seem to be hit or miss. Serving sizes seem to vary greatly, as do ratios of toppings to nachos. You shouldn’t have to keep ordering more toppings just so you’re not eating ¾ of a plate of nachos. We also ordered steaks once and were disappointed. They were not cooked to the levels that we asked (and I know my steaks!), and when we asked them to correct it… the cook just burned them to a crisp. Again… stick to the ribs and you won’t have that problem.
