Grilled chicken
David F.

3/15/25 Our granddaughter wanted to eat at Smokey bones. We were quickly seated and a waiter was soon at our table. Our granddaughter wanted fried pickles for our appetizer and received loaded French fries we brought that to our waiter's attention and he quickly corrected the issue to bring us fried pickles and take the loaded fries off our bill. Unfortunately we ate the loaded fries because they were good and the fried pickles also. We told our water to leave the loaded fries on our bill because we enjoyed them which he did. I do not like getting something for free if I enjoyed it. If we had not of eaten the loaded fries then I would not have wanted them on my bill. All is good. Our waiter was very nice and got us everything we wanted. For our meal we ordered a combo of meats that come on a wire heated rack. Our food was delicious and we devoured it is why you do not see any before pictures when it was brought to our table. The also for got the grilled chicken so that's why you see the grilled chicken on a separate saucer. Seems like the kitchen might have been off on this particular night but all is good. We had good food and good service.

What an amazing place! The food was so good if I wasn't full I could just keep eating more. The place was packed to the max that why we knew this was a great place to eat.

Brisket "Stuffed" Grilled Cheese

Absolutely delicious. Visiting Mammoth National Park and needed to swing into a few stores in Bowling Green so we stopped in for dinner. Sat at the bar and had hands down the most INCREDIBLE dinner. We each ordered the smooth bourbon blackberry lemonade as well as the brisket grilled cheese with a side of mac and cheese, along with splitting an order of the pretzel bones. Everything was incredibly well-cooked, packed full of flavor, and reasonably priced. Our bartender was helpful and friendly, as was all of the staff. Cool ambience with nice lighting. Would absolutely recommend and would love to go back!

So good!!! Was very happy to find a Smokey Bones location while in Bowling Green for the weekend. Service was good and fast. Food was excellent and everyone left full. Our waitress was great even going above & beyond by taking a picture of our party.

Any questions that everything here is just microwaved can be answered in this photo. Still in the microwave bags - wtf?

I recommend the smoked wings only. The beer selection is great but not sure the bartender knows what any of them are?

We were quickly seated and ordered our drinks while studying the really excellent menu. Instead of rolls, a cast iron skillet containing "Fire Bread" was delivered to our table. It was delicious and was quickly devoured while waiting for our dinners. My wife ordered the Montana fried chicken salad and I opted for the chicken pot pie. While the salad was nothing out of the ordinary (except the chicken was quite good) she thoroughly enjoyed it. My chicken pot pie was really good and it contained lots of large chunks of chicken. Many places that serve this dish think all you have to do is put some pastry puff over the chicken and you have chicken pot pie. NOT! At Montana Grill, this dish was prepared like I would make it at home-a complete crust which does a great job sopping up the chicken and vegetables. The portion was huge and had I not been traveling, I would have taken some home. This dish was also served in a cast iron skillet. Service was excellent and appreciated after driving nearly 9 hours. We waited for nothing. Very happy to have been reintroduced to Montana Grill.

We have eaten here several times and it is usually our stop on the way to Nashville…read more Our first clue should have been a near empty parking lot at lunch time. We were greeted by the hostess and told we could sit whenever we wanted and we chose the bar. The bartender got us a couple waters while we looked at the menu. After several minutes she came back and we asked for chips and salsa. Several more minutes passed before she came back and we placed our order for food. Not a complicated lunch. I ordered Chicken Tinga Tacos and my wife ordered the Chicken Chile Relleno. We waited about 20 minutes, food hadn't arrived, we had eaten all the Chips and Salsa and the bartender was ignoring us. We could see the kitchen and it didn't look like the cooks were even working. Not sure how you could not take care of probably a total of 10 people during lunch. We told the bartender and manager we were leaving because we hadn't gotten our food and to cancel our order. What has happened to this place? Has it changed ownership? What we saw yesterday was a poorly run restaurant and it's kind of sad after having some many good meals here.
