For many people driving north from Banff on 93 to Jasper - this restaurant sits at the corner of Connaught & Haze Avenue. It's upstairs and there's actually an elevator you can take. Seating area is plentiful and it overlooks the western side of Jasper which sadly was greatly damaged in last years devastating fires. I was there for a late lunch and had a brisket and pulled pork burger with fries. Servers were nice. Price was fair given the location Would return again. read more

We ordered salads, ribs and tacos in our group. Everywhere was very good. Large menu with plenty of choices.

We stopped here after a long drive on Icefields Parkway and it was decent. We had a party of 7 and they could seat us right away, which was all we were looking for in a restaurant that day. It's a large space with a lot of seating, a bar, and TVs playing different games. Our server was friendly but didn't check in too often, making it a nuisance when we needed more napkins and water. I ordered the smokehouse wrap and it was jam-packed with filling. The tortilla was a bit thick, which made the ends solely tortilla that's honestly too much to enjoy, but I liked that it was toasted. The flavor on the inside was nice, if a bit heavy on the barbecue sauce. The fries were good, nice and crispy, but nothing special. This is a solid meal if you're looking for a relaxed environment and filling food, but I wouldn't seek it out. read more

We can't believe how good it was, best we've had in Canada! Sat at the bar with Deep bartending and you've got to try this place! The brisket is to die for. read more

We ate here 5/15/26. Food was amazing!! We both got rib/wings taster and it was plenty of great food. The bbq beans and cornbread were also delicious. Our waitress was very friendly, helpful and nice. It was a little pricey but not nearly as much as I thought it would be. Great location and atmosphere read more

Our server was amazing!!! She truly went above and beyond to make this, not only a memorable experience but a wonderfully enjoyable one. Anything we needed, she made sure we got it right away. She is sweet, kind and generous of spirit. The ribs were juicy, tender and delicious. Wings were juicy and crispy at the same time. Can't wait to come back Monday for half price wings. We will definitely be back. read more

Good food at a reasonable cost! Great views of the mountains. The server we had was absolutely amazing. I wish I could remember his name but made fast friends with my 8 year old. He can't wait to go back! read more

Service was good but the spareribs were terrible. The meat must have been recooked several times. Do not recommend.

Wife got sick from her meal ( beef rib ) I got sick from the pulled pork sandwich that looked and tasted like the BBQ pork you get from a can. High price for low quality!! Building is beautiful needs better!! read more

The food were great, but the manager was pretty rude. When we just finished eating she came to us and said "People are waiting. I need this table". Like we were not customers or we weren't going to pay? When the bills were ready, she just threw the bills to our table so we had to find our own bill from the pile of bills. When we were paying, she left a few times so we had to wait for her to put the amount to the pos machine. At some point she shout "you still own me 57 dollars, who is that?" Jesus Christ. Finally, we had packed some food, and when we just stood up she literally threw the box to one of us, like we were not leaving fast enough. Just unbelievable. We couldn't help but wondering if she did this to every customer or just because we were Asians. Anyway, this was the worst experience I ever had in Montana's. I will NEVER visit this restaurant again. read more

Very decent place to have lunch after a full day of exploring. The price isn't too crazy, the food is pretty good and the service was great and absolutely welcoming! We had the 9 bone ribs with the chipotle honey sauce bbq sauce. it was a tad bit dry, but it wasn't too too bad. It was definitely enough to share with. It also came with fries, small cornbread, and beans. As far as price point, it is pretty normal and not too overpriced!8 read more

This chain was never great, but the view and reasonably priced food at this location pleased us on an early visit. As we ordered drinks, I asked for the special "Fire it up" double on the menu. The server said that it couldn't be done and the manager told us that only applied to "well drinks." I pointed to the menu that - as anyone can see on the photos I've posted here - makes it clear the price applies to all of the drinks. We stayed and had our formulaic chain restaurant dinner. It was OK and still reasonably priced. Later, I tried getting in touch withe chain's headquarters. They answered my messages, but did nothing. There are so many better places to eat, and I prefer not to dine with people so uninterested in customer service. Someday, maybe, if I'm stuck in an airport and this chain is the only thing open, but even then I'll look hard for something else. read more

Came for some ribs which I enjoy at Montana's. I was having a pretty good meal and had almost finished it, when I looked up at the salt shaker there was a big black hair inside the salt shaker . I obviously didn't finish my meal, and told the server about it. Asked for me bill and they didn't offer a discount or a free drink to try and make amends. I won't be coming back here again, I'll stick to Earls. read more

Montana's BBQ & Bar - Black hair in salt shaker. - Steakhouses Near Me - Jasper, Alberta

Undercooked food and poor service. Ordered the fajitas and had to send it back. Don't waste your money here.

If you like Montana's food with half the flavor and half the menu options, you will love the location in jasper. We got deep fried pickles and garlic bread and cheese appies, that were mildly good, however the burger was salty and had a prefrozen taste. The service was good, there is family seating and everyone wore masks due to covid. read more

Price was alright and the fish and chips, onion rings and chicken tacos were all at par with a chain restaurant. Service was good.

Great food! Served fast and hot and most importantly everything was delicious! If your in Jasper this is a great place to catch a meal! read more

Our party of four went to this place last night and it was not a great experience. While the food was really pretty good, the service was very slow (took us more than an hour to get our entrees) and there were errors with some of the food served. The restaurant has only been open for a month and a half, which might be the root cause of the issues. I think most of the service problems were due to the kitchen not being able to make the food fast enough and correctly. As for the food, three of the four of us in the group had the pork ribs and they were delicious and the cornbread was very good as well. My recommendation would be to let the place get the kinks worked out before trying it out. read more

Wasn't happy with the food or service here. The food varied a lot from the menu that you find in a big centre. They didn't put the sauce on my chipotle burger, they also used pickled jalepenos, not deep fried. I wasn't happy with the meal. The bathrooms were dirty and were not maintained either. Won't visit this one again. Additionally it was my daughters birthday and I told the server. No one sang or came over to her to comment on her birthday- she's a child so those things are a big deal to kids. Very disappointed. read more

Note: Our visit was months ago (forgot to finish the review until yelp reminded me), so I hope things have changed. After an unexpectedly long day of hiking, my partner and I were ravenously hungry and thirsty. It was pretty late, and we assumed as a chain that Montana's would be open and provide an okay-tasting hot dinner with a reasonably quick turnaround. Our expectations were the most basic any person would have from a restaurant like this, and it somehow failed to meet them. Our server was nice but did the bare minimum and didn't take care of drink refills. The food took over an hour, and when it finally came out, was disappointing. It's REALLY hard to disappoint a couple of hungry people who paddled and hiked all day. My fajitas came out lukewarm. The whole sizzling cast iron thing is a presentation gimmick, but I would expect the food itself to be fresh and hot even without the sizzle. At that point, I didn't want to send anything back because it was late and I was hungry. If I could turn back time, I would have just gone to a grocery or convenience store and bought some milk and cereal. read more

Walked in after a day of hiking and looking forward to a good meal. Got seated right away and that's where the service ended. 2 waiters in the area, neither one acknowledged us. After sitting and waiting for nearly 20 mins for someone to at least take our drink order, we left. read more

Worse experience! We were a party of 13 and they couldn't accommodate us because they told us that their whole staff were in training - this doesn't make sense at all. If there were 5 families of 4... would they be turned down too? I don't think so... very disappointed and will be reporting this to Montana's Corporate HQ so they are aware of the service we received in Jasper. We ended up going to L&W restaurant across the street!! EXCELLENT SERVICE AND FOOD! It's a family owned business so I'm happy we went there to support their business. read more

We had really good service! We sat by the window and watched the trains go by, I had steak and my boyfriend has ribs and both were amazing! My steak was cooked perfectly. read more

Everything was fine until we were almost done with our lunch. This older lady who happened to be the manager started cleaning an empty table next to us. My Son was just wandering around minding his own business, just being a kid. He was standing by the window admiring the Jasper weekend street traffic. My son is 4 years old. She passed by our table multiple times, and I could tell that something was bothering her. The restaurant was fairly empty and there were multiple tables empty around us. At one point she started cleaning an empty table and came to my wife to ask her to be "Seated" - in a very rude and condescending manner. My wife was standing next to her chair. This lady came back again and this time to tell my Wife to keep my child "Off" that area as she is going to have someone seated there. Again in a very condescending and rude manner. My son was nowhere around that table, He was on his chair or by the window behind our table the whole time. I didn't want to ruin our vacation so we decided to just ignore it for now and deal with it later. As it was getting very offensive & we were almost finished with our meal - I decided to ask for my check. I could see her going to her server and pointing in our direction and saying something. My server arrived with our bill and left the POS for payment. I paid the bill, while we continued to finish our meal and were planning for dessert. This is where it gets interesting - This Manager came around our table and started clearing our table while we were still eating our food & waiting for the dessert that came with the kid's menu. She took the plate away from us while we were still eating. We were shocked and speechless. We felt humiliated!!! At that very moment, our server arrived. I confirmed with our server if that lady was her manager (which she confirmed, yes that rude lady was the restaurant manager) and briefly told her how we felt. Before I could finish my sentence, She broke down in tears and apologized. She mentioned that she was having a very difficult time with her. Holding back her tears, She asked me about the desert but I declined and we left. We are still trying to figure out the reason behind the Manager's hatred towards us - Could it be because we were the only person of color in that restaurant at that time? I am going to escalate this complaint and hold her accountable for her rude and condescending behavior. It amazes me that the restaurant claims to be a family restaurant but shows a complete lack of empathy towards families with young children. I like going to Montana's but now I will never set foot in any of Montana's franchises. read more

Took our family with 3 kids. Great atmosphere, decor that's fits the mountains. Kids menu was great, and they really catered to them. They loved being able to draw on the table. The adults split a platter to try varieties of BBQ on the side. Highly recommend doing this. Great friendly staff. Would recommend to other families. read more

Dropped by the Montana's for lunch and the service was terrible. The restaurant was not busy and the waitresses worked like they did not want to be there. Sad experience for a chain. Headed to Earls and had a great lunch and service. read more

Went there last night. Unless you are going for BBQ find another place. One of our party got the pork ribs and said they were very good. The kids eat all there kids meals so that was good. Don't bother with Nachos. I paid $20 for a bag of chips. There salsa is not good, too sweet. Service ok. Didn't ask us about refills, maybe because they were water and it wasn't going to help their tip any. Very mixed on quality of food. Don't think I will go back. read more

Worst.service.of.all.time. We got here at 8:15. Waitress did not stop by until 8:30 to tell us she'll be right back (without taking our drink order). She came back at 8:43 to take the order, but didn't write anything down. At 8:55, she came back and said there was a computer issue and that she needs to write down the order to make sure it was executed properly. The people behind us got sat about 10 mins after us, but got their appetizers and entree before ours came out (Served by a different waiter). The place wasn't wasn't packed - there was no wait and several tables were open throughout. When we were settling our bill, we talked to the waitress that the service was subpar and she went back to speak with the manager. Manager came to our table and was empathetic about our situation and offered to discount our meal 50% and mentioned there were several complaints tonight about her service. If your section is slammed, at least send the hostess to take the drink order!! And maybe ask the hostess not to seat any more parties in your section? Just saying... We were a party of 2. read more

I ordered take out and my order was sitting in a bag on the bar ready to go. The bartender was friendly and extremely busy. Unfortunately the food was not very good and I ended up throwing out 3/4 of it. It was missing my side items and cornbread. The chicken wings and ribs were very fatty. read more

Worst service. First we went in and a sign said wait to be seated, we waited and waited with no acknowledgement that we were even there, when we were finally approached We didn't even actually get in to eat. There were 7 of us, 2 adults, 2 teenagers, 3 kids. We were told they couldn't serve us, we saw empty tables but they didn't even offer to let us have 2 tables, just told us no, not even an offer to have us wait. Not impressed with the service. We are not picky people and can understand when a place is super busy but there was no one else waiting so I don't understand this behavior. Two men care in right right at the time they told us we couldn't come in... they were seated right away. I recommend you find some of the other fine establishments in Jasper, this places customer service was terrible. read more

Very good food and beer! Good service! Reasonable prices. We went twice because we enjoyed it so much. Probably one of the best places in town! read more

Fries are old, ribs were tough and cold. I think it was reheated, rice from skillet was not cooked. Steak for the steak salad came in late and the dressing tasted like not really sure what it was!!! Overall we wasted our money and time. The server was polite enough to apologize he mentioned that they lost some kitchen staff. But if they cant make their staff to stay why should the customers suffer? Even a 20% discount is not enough. Dont get fooled kfc, a&w or even the gas station foodcourt was bettet 100 times read more

I will start with the good. Nice decor and friendly vibe. Prices ok for the area. Chipotle firecracker burger was pretty good. Accompanying garden salad sucked though. The bad is everything took forever. A full 45 minutes from order to when food arrived with no acknowledgement of the delay. Finally asked where the food was and it came a few minutes later. Also took 15-20 min to get an order in and about 10 minutes for those drinks to come. Overall really really slow and the food was not worth the wait. read more
