Hidden Gem for Authentic Kazakh Cuisine - Hungry Hun…read more If you're ever near Kalispell (just 14 minutes from FCA Airport), don't miss Hungry Hun - a hole-in-the-wall Kazakh restaurant tucked inside a half-dead mall. At first glance, the setting might feel unusual: an old shop converted into an open kitchen with a small seating area that overlooks the quiet mall. But don't let the location fool you--this place serves up some of the most authentic, homemade Kazakhstan food you'll ever find in Montana. We ordered the lamb and leek dumplings and the lamb kabob served with naan bread. Both dishes were fantastic--the dumplings were juicy and full of flavor, while the kabob was perfectly chargrilled and tender. Every bite tasted fresh and lovingly prepared. The servers were warm, welcoming, and eager to recommend menu options, which made the experience even better. The seating may not be glamorous, but the food more than makes up for it. Hungry Hun has been open for two years now, and they also run a food truck in Whitefish, so locals and visitors alike have more than one way to enjoy their cooking. If you're looking for something authentic, unique, and delicious in Kalispell, Hungry Hun is absolutely worth the stop.

This restaurant was extremely popular and we had to wait 40 minutes for a table for 6 on a weeknight but my friends and I just put our names down and headed to a nearby brewery while we waited. Once our name was called, we were seated and served fairly quickly. We got a combo plate, the sausage appetizer, and nachos with brisket to share between 6 people. Of the combo plate, the pork belly was unanimously the best (extremely juicy and tender), followed by the ribs (tender, well made home style ribs), and finally the brisket (a bit dry). The sausage platter was okay but not as memorable as the other items we got. To note, even though the nachos are listed as an appetizer, they are HUGE and with the addition of brisket on top it was probably the equivalent to getting one of the main entrees for 2-3. We found that the brisket on the nachos were better as maybe it was fattier cut of the brisket or the cheesy helped. Additionally the cheese sauce was fantastic on the nachos and they were one of the highlights of the meal.

We ordered the PBJ (pork belly jelly bites) and brisket cheese steak sandwich with jalapeno mac n cheese on the side. Both the dishes were amazing and we will surely stop by here again when in the area. The whole sassy sandwiches section look like a must try. Only thing we will try to avoid here is the desserts that were not bad at all but because we saw them being made in front of us now we know it is just assembled we may not order more of that. We got the huckleberry peach cobbler and banana pudding. Both the dishes aren't really made from scratch and had we not seen how they're assembled we may not judge it too harshly.

I used to absolutely love the food here, until I found out the attitudes that came behind it. I know some of the peoples names who work here (being someone who is pretty regular), but no names will be present. To be informed that there is a mice problem and seeing gloveless hands is one thing but to also hear some of what I have has disgusted me. Everytime I have come through, sometimes with my niece of 5 years old & my nephew of 7 (they love the shakes) there has been tons of swearing, sexual discussion and talk about drugs from doing to selling them on location. This most recent time they left the window open (which is not surprising) and I heard mocking of some poor girls suicide attempt and her road to recovery. I was a regular. My niece would ask me what their words would mean. She is far too young and to hear this and my nephew ask the same is so heart wrenching. At any other burger place I heard nothing of the sort and saw only sanitary means. If you want somewhere more sanitary and genuine, and a place you won't here the f bomb repeatedly screamed from the back, look elsewhere. Very disappointed, I would go here every week a few times, it was one of my all time favorites. This is mainly the night staff, I have rarely had an issue with days. Not to mention when I did see female workers during the later times they would always be treated horribly (from seeing a very small woman employee with a cast on being shoved around by some big guy, to name calling). Please go to Five Guys, or Mudmans or even Mcdonlads.Hell, even Burger King. This behavior is far from okay. A lot of disrespect to each other and the customers who only want a quality, delicious meal and fantastic customer service. I am not one to write reviews, but with this being almost everytime going through I had to. Also, check your bags. If you are not careful they may miss something and make you charge extra. Rarely ever got a full order read more

We have eaten In Furgals many times and the food is pretty good. We have found that before eating, we have to clean our table--water and several napkins-before siting down. We aren't neat freaks but I don't feel like sticking to the table tops, nor dragging my sleeves in old food. It's just not cleaned. It may be given a quick swipe but the fllors, chairs, and tables need a good, throrough cleaning. Staff needs to be trained that as soon as people leave, the tables, chairs, and even under the tables, need to be cleaned well and completely, disinfected, and made ready for the next people. For now, we've cleaned our last table and chairs for Frugal. The staff isn't that busy, especially some time during the day, to mop and clean the legs of tables and chairs, too. and all those areas. We might check it out in a few weeks but for now we won't go in. read more

I ordered a huckleberry shake and somehow ended up with a vanilla. Not happy. Also not happy to hear jokes about a girls suicide attempt, I was wondering what happened to all the nice girls on night crew, seems to me they are driven away. Don't understand why vaping is allowed on the job where people can see and definitely do not appreciate being called names for just wanting what I ordered. If there is any way I can contact corperate, someone let me know. Absolutely Disgusted with the behavior. And smoking weed in the parking lot? Come on guys. I see a serious lawsuit here read more

Wonderful entree salad at Brannigans today, at least 6-7oz of lettuce. I can now understand why FD's has not been busy at all each time our group goes there. Oh well, never again. Tonight I ordered the Dave's Sassy Salad and was surprised by the portion size. It was actually flat on the plate with only a VERY small amount of salad mix. Less than a cup of salad mix, so maybe 1-1.5oz. I asked for it to be remade, assuming it may have been an oversight. The second salad arrived with a similar portion, so I told the server I didn't want it either. Our server was polite but completely unsure/untrained regarding how to resolve such issues. She could only relay what the kitchen told her, that the portion sizes were correct. She asked if I wanted anything else but only in passing on her way to another table. This implied to me that she really didn't care. A manager or supervisor was never even brought to the table, which would have been helpful in addressing the concern more directly. Getting a manager/supervisor is always expected with issues regarding food in a restaurant. For context, a friend at the table ordered a half side salad that appeared to contain noticeably more lettuce than the entrée salad I received. Based on typical expectations, an entrée salad is generally a more substantial portion. Normally 4-6 ounces for an entree salad. I have been in the restaurant business for over 45 years as a manager and owner so I completely understand restaurants have established portion standards and operational considerations. This was way beyond acceptable by any means. Needless to say I will never be back and will share my experience.

I think a good deli i expect it to differ from your average subway as they are everywhere. I wish there are higher quality meats with better sauces instead other generic ones.
