Michael L.

First timers, (outta town traveling through) Found this place and was very impressed. We didn't have any specialities but we sat in the bar area and our service was EXCELLENT! Our waitress was very attentive, full of energy and always kept an eye on us. We split 3 apps: Wings - great tasting and had a nice crunch to the texture as compared to the fatty, slimy type. Calamari- great flavor on the long strips. Cooked perfectly! Seared Ahi Tuna - seared perfectly although not best I've ever had (being a Sushi snob) excellent taste and dipping sauces. Atmosphere was great for its size and pretty busy for what was a Wednesday afternoon. Would eat here again

Southwest salad with shrimp blackened.
Garret H.

I really really like this place. The southwest salad with blackened shrimp was amazing and we also ordered the Reuben sandwich. I don't really like that they say no splitting of dishes but the food was very good and it's OK. I understand. If I were looking for a place when I travel through again, I would love to come back here.

This is my absolute favorite restaurant in Billings! The service is amazing and attentive to your needs/wants. The food is mouthwatering and the drinks are just a cherry on top. Every time our family has a special occasion we always go to Jake's.

What a great place. Having been a longtime patron of the Rex Hotel back when it was first restored…read morein the 1980s, imagine the delight when you find an old haunt reimagined and refreshed for today's patrons. The interior is western themed, naturally, and overstuffed with atmosphere not to mention the seats. Great views of the bar and kitchen, you can watch a crew hard at work. The courtyard seating remains delightful but on a Billings Friday night in the historic railroad district it was loud, but good times. The setting and service are top-notch. The Menu is expansive for a Montana steakhouse, lots, lots of choices besides the beef, with wonderful sides, and salads. Solid wine and beer list but imaginative cocktails. Do try the Orange Nor'easter, a blend of bourbon, ginger beer, maple syrup and ginger beer that is a great summer drink. The NY strip was superb--wish the more expensive places back in the east would send their folks out west to learn how to grill steak. Seared with a crispy outside but perfect medium rare on the inside. The steak bites appetizer was a meal into itself, and spot on in its prep. Loved the deluxe mashed potatoes. Beet salad was fresh and zingy. Even the bread service was superior. The wait staff did a great job of explaining everything. But they couldn't convince us to do desserts--bet they are top notch too. Maybe next time. We opted for another round of cocktails on a warm summer night when at this place Billings lived up to its motto of being the "Magic City"

If you're looking for a steakhouse in Billings, this is the spot!…read more We wanted a really good last meal in Billings and wanted local beef. This was definitely the right move. The meat portions are huge, like 16-20 ounces for each cut, so unless you're starving, definitely consider splitting between two people. Each cut is served a la carte with the sides meant to share for the table. I didn't do that and ordered the butter aged ribeye, and my husband and I shared the escargot, lobster mac and cheese, and their vegetable of the day which was a stuffed pepper. The steak was INCREDIBLE. I finished it all, even though I was then very full for multiple days. I loved the escargot as well, it was so cheesy and buttery. The Mac and cheese is also a stand out, definitely order it, so delicious. The stuffed peppers weren't great, I didn't really like them. They had too much going on flavor-wise that didn't really work. If I were to go back, I'd get a more standard steakhouse side like broccoli or asparagus. To drink, I ordered the gin fizz. It had little bits of lavender on top and you could really taste it in each sip, but it wasn't overpowering. Very delish. The service was great throughout the evening. I also thought the restaurant was beautiful with tall ceilings, beautiful bar, and the tables and chairs were beautiful (and comfortable).

We had a fantastic dinner at Jake's Downtown in Billings, Montana. From the moment you walk through…read morethe doors, you feel like you've stepped back in time. The historic charm and atmosphere make this place something special. The ladies started with the jalapeño margaritas, and I kicked things off with an Old Fashioned made with bourbon--both were excellent. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and genuinely engaged, making us feel right at home. For dinner, I ordered the ribeye with French onion soup and a baked potato, and every bite was outstanding. The steak was cooked perfectly, the soup was rich and flavorful, and the baked potato was the perfect complement. If you're visiting Billings and looking for a classic steakhouse with incredible food, warm service, and timeless character, Jake's Downtown is an absolute must-visit. I'll definitely be back!

I would honestly give this place a 3.5 if it was an option. And for me, that's a solid dinner that…read moreI would go back to if somebody asked. I was suggested to go to Jake's by a friend who has lived in the area for a long time and eats at Jake's regularly. He does eat at the other location, but this one was more convenient for me. I had the crusted ribeye at his suggestion with the spicy potato cake, a Caesar salad salad and the special crème brûlée of the night. My steak was cooked well but was lacking some sort of flavor. I don't know if it needed more seasoning or more smoke or something, but there it was just missing a little bit of something for me. The spicy potato cake was delicious though and was probably my favorite thing I ate for the entire evening . The Caesar salad was fresh, but it felt like maybe the lettuce was wet and watered down the dressing just a bit more than I would like. I loved how much Parmesan was on it though. So crème brûlée is my favorite dessert on the entire planet and they had a special mint one which was interesting. I don't know if I would order it again, but I wasn't mad that I did if that makes sense. Wheelchair accessibility: there is street and nearby other parking available. Although it can get a little tricky around rush-hour. The doors do not have any rise, but they are heavy and in the main door is a double but there's plenty of room to maneuver between the two sets of doors. The bar area has bar height tables. I didn't see any regular height tables in the bar area that doesn't mean there wasn't any. Most of the dining area was blocked off when I was there for a private party and so I did eat in the bar area, but it looked like there were plenty of regular hike tables there but you might want to get a reservation to ensure you get a seat that would accommodate a wheelchair user the pack to the bathroom is a little bit tricky and in general the path that ways were a little bit tight for a chair user.

Restaurant was about half full of diners and there were several servers on staff. We were seated quickly and our very friendly server attended to us just as quickly. Got drinks ordered and allowed us a few minutes to decide. We did ask for some suggestions and she nailed them for us from appetizers to salad choice and entrees. My sandwich was really good. Seasoned very strongly and matched well with the au jus. Fries were crispy and delicious as well. One of my employees ordered the bacon wrapped meatloaf. I didn't try that but did take a few of his brussel sprouts - easily the best brussel sprouts I've ever had. Rich and buttery but still with a nice crunch from the char. So good! Other guy ordered the Sockeye and it looked perfect (he ate the whole plate so I know it was!) Vibe was cool also. Dark woods, cool lighting, comfortable seating. Stacked is a great choice if you're downtown, don't skip it!

We started with the octopus appetizer and a gluten-free pita. The pita seemed more like a basic gluten-free pizza crust than traditional pita, but that was a minor point because the muhammara was excellent and the pita/crust worked really well with the octopus. They also did a good job accommodating gluten-free needs throughout the meal, via a dedicated gluten-free menu. For dinner, I had the stuffed pork chop, which had a somewhat Greek-inspired preparation. It was served over orzo and stuffed with feta and olives. Really flavorful, well executed, and a more interesting preparation than the typical pork chop. My wife had the duck and enjoyed it as well. We paired dinner with a bottle of Nebbiolo. Their overall wine selection was solid. The atmosphere was comfortable and polished without being overly formal, and the staff were friendly and attentive. Good food, interesting menu, nice atmosphere, and strong service.

We ended…read moreup here because we needed something open late and their kitchen was open till 11 which is not common it seems in Billings. If you're an iced tea drinker, I highly recommend getting a spiced iced tea. I was skeptical at first, but it's actually just cinnamon iced tea and was lovely. I had the nachos with ground beef. The sauce was not a generic out of the can sauce. the chips were crisp and the ground beef was well seasoned. The only complaint I have if I have to have one is that the jalapeños were very thickly sliced and took over the entire flavor of any bite they were in; a smaller dice on them would've allowed for the jalapeños to be spread out over the entire nacho and not overwhelm the rest of the flavors. My companion had the mushroom Swiss burger with fries and said they were both a solid burger and fries no complaints. Wheelchair accessibility: accessible parking across the street with a crosswalk; the front door is heavy so you're gonna either need help or be able to open a heavy door and there's actually two doors but plenty of room to maneuver between. the path of travel wasn't bad and there's wheelchair accessible seating in the back of the restaurant. There is no wheelchair accessible seating in the bar area. The bathroom door was light .The accessible stall in the women's bathroom had a grab bar, but there was not sufficient turning radius and the soap was up a little high.
