    We weren't overcharged for - ice cream even though he was a kids meal and also for my husband's steak, instead of paying 32 with paid $50 (only for the steak) It was our kid birthday, it was almost 8:30 p.m. so we didn't pay too much attention to the receipt, on the moment but I double check that the first thing when we came home and I noticed those extra charged. Super disappointed

    This visit I was not over ally impressed with the food. Service was great. Attentive and quick. My 2 kids orders - grilled cheese and mash potatoes and 8 wings and Mac and cheese came hot and they enjoyed. My chicken tacos and fries - were cold. Fries tasted like they had been reheated and then left sitting.

    We were seated quickly and offered drinks. If there were daily specials we weren’t informed. Menu offered a decent variety of choices, predominantly those being steaks & ribs. Food arrived about 20 minutes after ordering, all was cooked as it should have been, fries were a little on the cool side and a “side” of onion rings is two, just 2 onion rings…. Ketchup is now provided in individual cups instead of a bottle on the table; if you like ketchup be sure to ask for extra. Our server was lovely and checked in on us briefly. Restaurant & washrooms were clean. Overall the food was good, not great, not good and filling. Prices for steaks were a bit high but everything else we got was fairly priced (fish & chips, chicken tenders & fries and chicken sandwich with fries). Steaks were cooked exactly as ordered. Party of five with the bill being around $165 not including tip.

    Although the food was fine the service was not very good, it took a long time for the food, dessert and even the bill to arrive. Order was placed at 3:53pm and we finally paid at 5:30pm.

    We had the regular ribs. They were definitely cooked to perfection with the meat falling off the bones. The noise level was high at times but we were seated off to the side and able to talk and hear without too much trouble. (I have reduced hearing capability)

    Being the first customers of the day has its benefits. Service was fast and efficient, our orders were taken quickly and food arrived quickly, too. The food itself was exquisite, hot, and fresh. The appetizers were delicious, but the main courses were absolutely fantastic. The ribs fell off the bone and the sauce they were cooked in was fantastic! We really enjoyed our meal!

    The service was great from the moment we walked in the door. we were seated in the bar and the world cup was on the televison. Everybody was really engrossed in the game. It was so awesome. We were served promptly with drinks. Our appetizer was delivered in no time and our our entrees followed soon. we were in and out within an hour. We will definitly make a trip into Saint john soon again for a meal at Montanas.
