We had a glass of Prosecco and an old fashion, both were delicious. There is a shuffle board table, old Nintendo with excite bike and some slot machines for entertainment but one of the most entertaining things is sitting by the fire place and watching the tv that is positioned over the top. It shows the people who are trying to get in to the speakeasy and their reactions when the door opens. If you're in the Butte area and are looking for a nice place to relax and have a craft cocktail, this is a definite go to.

Multiple servers have seemed annoyed that they have to deal with their customers, not just us. Last time we went, we ordered 2 draft beers. That's it. 35 minutes later, no drinks, nobody checking on us, no servers to be found to check on our order. So we took off. It's a cool space, but I'm tired of being neglected when we try to support them.

A Memorable Taste of Butte's History…read more From the moment we walked into Casasgrandas Steakhouse, the setting felt special. Housed in a rustic copper mining-era building featuring original wood floors and fantastic period decor, the atmosphere effortlessly bridges Butte's rich history with a welcoming, cozy dining environment. The meal kicked off with the included soup and salad courses, both exceptional. The chicken and rice soup was clearly made in-house--wholesome, rich, and comforting. The salad arrived crisp and fresh, topped with crunchy homemade croutons and a bright, zesty citrus poppy seed dressing that was a delightful surprise. For our main courses, we ordered the Top Sirloin with the Shrimp Scampi: * Top Sirloin: Prepared perfectly to order, wonderfully tender, and packed with classic steakhouse flavor. * Shrimp Scampi: The absolute highlight of the evening. It featured five large, succulent prawns swimming in a rich, generous scampi sauce--ideal for dredging the table bread through. The side of pasta in a savory tomato sauce complemented it beautifully. To top off an already fantastic evening, they offered a scoop of huckleberry fudge ice cream for just a dollar. It was the perfect local sweet touch to end on. Overall, Casasgrandas delivered top-tier comfort, incredible value, and a truly memorable dinner. We will definitely be back!

This isn't one of those stuffy, velvet-rope wine bars; it's genuinely "New York chic meets Montana," which is the only atmosphere I ever want to be in. The main reason this place is magic? The staff. We had a server who was less of a server and more of a wine wizard. I told them I liked things that were "a little sassy, maybe a bit moody," and they didn't even blink. Instead, they completely crafted the perfect flight of wine flights for us to sample. It was like a personalized, four-course journey for my tastebuds. Every single pour was a winner, and the knowledge they dropped on us was actually interesting and not at all intimidating. I learned more in 30 minutes than I did in a decade of frantically googling "what is terroir?" If you're looking for an amazing wine bar where you can relax, learn something new, and taste truly incredible stuff without feeling like you need a wine degree, this is it. Go for the ambiance, stay for the wine, and definitely let their knowledgeable service steer the ship. They won't steer you wrong. Highly Recommend: Just tell your server to surprise you. It's the best way to do it.

I recently ate at this restaurant and found it disgusting. My steak was covered in mushrooms that…read moretasted like vinegar. The steak had no flavor. The asparagus was about the size of a number 2 pencil and was greasy. Even though we each paid for our dinner separately, they required a 20 % tip. Our group of around 25 had one server, who also performed as the busboy, so our dinner was very slow. The wine looked to be about 4 ozs and was $12 per servings. We also had to dine on their patio with pesky flies everywhere. For this we paid over $200 for a meal we could not enjoy. As you can probably see, I was very unimpressed with this overrated restaurant and will NEVER eat there again.

Other customers that perhaps were perceived as bigger paychecks were consistently served before me. At first I sat at the bar to make it easy for the servers. Unfortunately it was only me and I was abandoned after My drink came and no dinner menus came despite being asked and responding that yes, I need them. So, I took my drink and asked to be seated at a table. the table next to me had about 8 people seated after me, and again they were able to order drinks before my waitress came to me. So, looks matter in this restaurant - a lot! That is never a good sign. My waitress is probably in the wrong career as she was brusque and seemed put off at having to serve 1 person. Maybe she was cursed with being German as I am. The wedge salad I ordered was two small wedge pieces instead of the normal 1 large piece and was ok, but underwhelming in both the size and the amount of blue cheese which was a bit sparse. The 6 oz fillet seemed more like 4 and was ok - the baked potato noticeably smaller than most but loaded at least. The restaurant scene is Helena is pitiful, to be honest. Billings is the place in Montana to be for restaurants. Maybe Bozeman or Missoula but unfortunately, the capital is lacking. The martinis were decent but not as good as the windmill in billings.
