    Wait was over 30 minutes and wasn’t super busy. It was my son’s birthday- his meal was great. My boyfriends came out cold and they took it back and heated it up 🤦‍♀️ and my daughters came with apples and not fries. I always get the chicken tacos at every location I go to. These were cold, chicken tough, way to much cheese, no sauce and they put bacon on them (they don’t come with bacon) usually a good experience but this was very mediocre unfortunately

    We waited 40 minutes for our food and when it came, my daughter’s fries were cold, mine were barely warm and my friend’s chicken sandwich was overdone. She was offered a gift card for the next time as we didn’t have time to wait for a new one. Not the usual experience.

    We were seated promptly and our waitress was very attentive. We did wait a bit for our food, however it was very busy. When the food came it was delicious and exactly as ordered.

    Steaks were not prepared as requested and were cold on delivery. Fries were hot. Requested steak be replaced and they were but added additional time to the dinner and frankly was a disappointing beginning to the evening. Was second chance for Montana and same experience both times. I will not be back.
