Fantastic food, staff was so friendly, the manager Dawn was Amazing, the Bison Ribs were the best I've ever had, Can't wait to go back!

I imagine there are many exceptional restaurants in Bozeman, but after we discovered Ted's Montana Grill, we didn't bother looking. From the moment we were greeted by our host, Serguey (sp?) until the time we said goodbye to the manager, Dawn, the service and dining experience at Ted's was exceptional. The star of each evening's service was our primary server/bartender, Flynn. The likely result if a young Ted Danson and Patrick Swayze produced a child, we assume Flynn rides a Bison to work. Nell and Alex, also server/bartenders, continued the exceptional service. Truly, each and every single individual who touched our table made the dinners at Ted's more enjoyable and memorable. Ted's has a spoil of talented and personable service members. Moreover, the crew seemed to be like family. No doubt, the team at Ted's would make an excellent cast for a reality TV show. As for the food and drinks...spectacular. The kiddo and I ordered Beef Filets one night, Delmonico Ribeye and Strip the next night (we wimped out on getting bison...which was probably a mistake after trying the bison on my wife's salad). The Mrs. got the Balsamic Blue Steak Salad each night. Everything put in front of was fantastic. Apps were great, Dessert cookies were ridiculous. Flynn made the bulk of our drinks (New Fashioneds for me, Basil Hayden Blackberry Smashes for the Mrs., Shirley Temples for the kiddo). The craftsmanship of the cocktails didn't skip a beat when Nell took over the bar. Both Flynn and Nell make a fine White Russian, too. From start to finish, across multiple nights and multiple servers, the service and food at Ted's was impeccable. As I said at the beginning, I'm sure there are many fine places to enjoy dinner in Bozeman, but I would strongly encourage you to treat yourself to the food and service at Ted's first! read more

Had an elegant feeling at this spot right on Main Street that has a great assortment of lunch and dinner options. Our server was very attentive and the food was delicious! Their ranch is incredible! read more

My bison steak was delicious and the service is always friendly. I also love the old school interior, especially since so much of Bozeman has gone full hipster (RIP Tarantino's.). Sometimes I just want a good steak without Edison bulbs judging me. read more

Great menu and totally satisfied my craving for a delicious burger. Many burgers to choose from and option of beef or bison & one side. I chose the 1977 AMERICA'S CUP (American, bacon, grilled onion, mushroom, fried egg) with a side order of grilled asparagus that were seasoned and cooked to perfection. Claire was very friendly and attentive to our needs. She kept our water glasses and drinks filled despite the large groups she also had to attend. Fairly noisy w the NCAA Championship being displayed on the screens. I would definitely come back to try the other items in the menu when back in town visiting! read more

Fantastic bison burger grilled medium rare w/ grilled onions, bacon, and cheddar cheese. Garnished with lettuce tomato, pickle & onion but I only added the tomato. Fresh cut French fries, iced tea & water, then there was pecan apple crisp w/ vanilla ice cream -- it was big enough for four to share! Service was great and the interior of a historic classic old restaurant with a bar was comfortable and enjoyable. read more

Service was not good. They were busy. But we never got refill of water. Son took 30 minutes to get his coke. Wife's martini sat so long waiting at bar the sugar on rim melted and slides down the glass. I ordered the buffalo brisket and it was a basic pot roast read more

We are locals who have come to Ted's often, especially before the Bozeman Symphony performances. The food tastes good, but the last three times our food has come out lukewarm, which diminishes the experience. We mentioned before we ordered to our waitress about our past experiences, but had the same experience. Wish this issue would be resolved. Would like to come back. Waitress was very good read more

Ted's is normally our go to steakhouse while visiting from out of town and unfortunately, it will be my last visit. While my first experience was great, each visit since has gone downhill, and this most recent one was incredibly disappointing. We waited 30 minutes just to get drinks from the bar. Our server seemed overwhelmed, and it was clear the restaurant was struggling to keep up. Our kids were starving, and it took an hour and a half for our food to arrive. When it finally came, I ordered the ribeye, which was completely flavorless--definitely not what I expect from a place known for steaks. At the end of the meal, I brought up our concerns to the server. She apologized and offered 10% off the bill. We were charged, signed, and ready to leave after a 2.5-hour dinner. However, we noticed the discount hadn't been applied, so we stayed behind while the bill was corrected and reprinted. Days later, we noticed an unauthorized charge on our account--for the full amount of the bill. We've called the restaurant multiple times to speak with a manager, and no one has returned our calls. As someone with 15 years in the restaurant industry, I find it unacceptable that no one from management addressed our concerns at the table or has followed up since. We'll be disputing the charge with our credit card company. It's unfortunate, because Ted's used to be a great spot, but the service and accountability have gone severely downhill. If you're looking for a good steak and a smooth dining experience, I'd recommend going elsewhere. read more

Ted's Montana Grill - Bison Delmonico Ribeye (14 Oz) - American Near Me - Bozeman, Montana

Hmmm I really hate being that guy as it seems in today's world all people do is write negative reviews but sadly my experience was less than stellar at Teds. I came in for lunch around 1:00. They weren't overly busy but had a decent crowd. I was eating alone and was set relatively quick. However sat there waiting for close to 10 mins before someone came to take my drink order. Daryl was very polite. For an appetizer I ordered the wedge salad and for a main I ordered the Delmonico rib eye with the 50/50 fries and onion rings. After what seemed like a long wait the appetizer arrived with the main. I ordered the salad with no blue cheese and ranch dressing instead. Well the salad had blue cheese dressing. I didn't send it back as I already had been waiting for a while and I don't hate blue cheese just wasn't craving it. Now to the steak... wow it was as crazy tough and absolutely flavorless , the fries and onion rings were cold and greasy. When you pay that sort of money you definitely expect better quality. Hell for the price Texas road house has better taste , flavor and value. When I come down to Bozeman for work I will definitely not be going back. I will say again my server Daryl is was very nice though. read more

I've been there twice. Very limited for vegetarians. Food was fine. Service was excellent. Good experience for tourists.

Why can't every restaurant be like Ted's!!!! Finally, a nice place with great service and food that we can enjoy with our dogs!!! Shame on all the restaurants in Montana that will never get our money because they are not dog friendly. And shame on those bad dog owners for ruining it for those of us who actually train and hold our dogs accountable for their behavior! We will be back! Thank you Ted's!! read more

Everything was so delicious and cooked to order. I got the Bison steak,, oh my God! Heaven on earth!! Our server was a professional. The menu and the portions are huge. The vibe was relaxing and felt so comfortable that we didn't want to leave. Please give it a try, casual dress or business casual is not a problem. read more

Things were just wrong from the beginning. The restaurant itself is nice and a good ambiance but that's where it ended. I sat at the bar and asked the bartender if she wouldn't mind turning the tv to the NBA finals. She then came up 10 minutes later noticing I was watching it on my phone and finally turned the channel. I ordered a glass of wine then dinner a few minutes later. Asked to keep the menu for the wine list. After ordering she grabbed the menu and walked away. I ordered the filet medium with broccoli and asparagus. The asparagus was cooked perfectly. The broccoli was one small piece and then an entire bunch so big it wasn't cooked all the way. When I ordered I asked for sautéed onions and mushrooms. I also asked for bbq sauce. Neither came when the main course was delivered. The steak was so well done I only ate half. The onions and mushrooms came out 10 minutes after the steak. Overall, this place is located in an ideal area, it's just too bad they can't get out of their own way. read more

Several nights spent here having dinner and drinks. Fantastic martinis. I made the mistake of ordering an old fashioned. First one was not the one I ordered (they have their own version on the menu which was overly sweetened) but not horrible so I drank it. Ordered a second one and clarified that I wanted a traditional one. It came and was the single most disappointing drink I've ever had. Didn't drink it. Every night I was there my experiences went down in quality. Whether it was the drinks, then the food, then service, each visit was progressively more disappointing. The ambience was fine~ it's giving old-timey with a little cafeteria sprinkled on top. Overall I'm averaging my multiple experiences there with my rating. read more

Friendly service, generous portions. Nice patio in the back. Accommodating for allergies. Bison meatloaf was amazing.

I walked to this restaurant and was a little confused about where to enter. There are apparently two entrances but one goes directly in and I thought it was just some side door. I was eating solo and was seated really quickly. It was a while before anyone came up to the table to start taking my order. I was going to go with a lower rating, but they redeemed themselves enough. I went pretty simple, a bacon cheeseburger and fries. I did opt for bison since I had never eaten it. My waitress, once she came to the table, was incredibly nice and did check in a few times - not overly so like some can do. I appreciated that. I did order the burger medium and it came out medium well to well, but I attribute that to bison cooking quicker and it really didn't matter to me anyway. Burger was good. Fries were good. I contemplated dessert, but the cookie they serve with the ice cream is oatmeal, but I was told they have a brownie and ice cream option. Sign me up! The waitress brought it out a little later, the brownie nice and warm. It was good. No complaints. This place is t great, but it is good and the food is less expensive than some of the options I had around here. I'd definitely go back if I am in the area again. I might even have to try to get some bison meat at home. read more

Horrible service. Took over an hour for a baked potato. Almost seemed like they did it in purpose the way the staff was acting. It's called SERVICE industry guys. read more

Good onion rings! The rest of the food we got was also good, but the rings were the best! The service is excellent. read more

the AC wasn't working and the staff didn't really think that mattered. 92 outside! also seemed more like a diner that a nice restaurant. we left so can't rate the food read more

The service at this place is absolutely terrible, more specifically at the bar, they were extremely rude and tried to pretend that we weren't there. We waited for 20 minutes to try to get one of the bartenders to just look at us and take our order but they just ignored us. Instead of having a drink and potentially ordering a nice dinner we decided to leave, and they seemed happy to have one less customer. Not a way to run a customer service business. read more

Once again, these guys let me down! I'm always alone eating because of work so they set me up at the bar. I have to ask for a drink. I have to ask to order. I have to ask for a water. I ordered my food. 50 minutes later it finally arrives!! No one's checking on it. No one is saying anything to me. I have to ask. My food finally comes and of course it's massively overcooked. I said forget it. I'm out. Two young girls work in the bar that are clueless!! So I talked to the managers, two guys that could not have given a shit. They said thanks for letting us know. Have a good night. What?! No offer of "Can we get you something quickly to go? If you come back in next time, we'll offer you something?" I'm never giving this joke of a restaurant another chance!!!! read more

The food was amazing. Too bad the waiter we had had something against my family and I. He didnt care to check on us and it seemed like he rushed us out. He didnt even do no refills on our drinks the entire time. One waitress came to the rescue and helped us. read more

Meh Nothing special. Steak was overcooked but still tasted good. Great staff and servers. read more

Don't know why this place only has 3.3 stars!! The food was amazing, wonderful service, the cocktails were perfect and we were able to have our dogs on the back patio. Don't skip this place!!! read more

We were a group of five dining at Ted's Montana Grill and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience. It took over an hour for our food to arrive, which would be understandable if the restaurant was packed -- but it wasn't. There were maybe five or six tables occupied in total. It was clear the staff was overwhelmed or understaffed. We saw new customers come in and stand around waiting, with no one greeting them for several minutes. Eventually, a server came out and explained she had been helping in the kitchen. That honestly made me wonder -- was my steak cooked by a chef, or by one of the servers? I ordered my steak medium rare, but what I got was at least medium, if not more. For a place that positions itself as a steakhouse, that kind of mistake is disappointing. All in all, the restaurant wasn't busy, yet service and execution were far below expectations. Sadly, we won't be coming back any more. read more

When in Rome, I mean Montana, you must try Ted's Montana Grill, right? It was a rainy early September evening, we quickly were seated but it took a while to get service and our drink order. We were told they were short staffed. We were patient/ no problem. Our server was exceptionally friendly and helpful with suggestions. All four dinners were good. Two of us enjoyed the bison meatloaf which was rich and delicious and it came with so- so sides of mashed potatoes with gravy and buttered carrots. The bison was the highlight. The vibe is a true western old-timey feel. Lots of wood everywhere. Restrooms were located adjacent in the connecting hotel. It was a nice experience. read more

I have been receiving email ads for their new Smash Burger. It looks incredible. I have had Smash Burgers before and agree they are more juicy and tasty. Both my wife and I ordered it along with onion rings and fries. There are no words that can describe how terrible they were. First of all the food was cold. The meat was overcooked and the sides were simply bad. We were so disappointed. We expected a much more tasty meal. Shame on Ted's. It will be sometime before we ever go back. read more

We've had several friends recommend Ted's and the food left a lot to be desired. We had a reservation and we were seated promptly. The atmosphere of the restaurant is excellent although it was extremely hard for us to hear each other at our own table. I do think they need to do something for more of a sound barrier it was very loud and the restaurant was not full. Our server was kind, helpful and diligent making sure we were taken care of. The food was a disappointment. My husband I and I each got a ribeye with sides. The steaks were cooked correct, unfortunately they lacked in flavor & they did not have a sear. My husband got the chipotle corn and onion rings for his sides. He liked the corn but the onion ring batter was too thick it made them mushy. I got the asparagus and mashed potatoes, the asparagus needed flavor (garlic or lemon or balsamic -something) & the potatoes were very lumpy with a lot of skin left in, they were flavored well. Overall for the cost we were disappointed and we will probably not return. We did hear another table say the burgers are the best thing they've had off the menu. read more

Nice steakhouse right in the middle of Bozeman on Main Street. Made reservations and walked right in and we're seated. Service was excellent, prices were a little high, as is everything now. I had the Bison Meatloaf, loved it! The rest of our party had Steak, Burgers and the salads. Nothing but positive reviews of their food. The ambiance inside was really cool, almost like a cabin feel. 4 stars instead of 5 is mainly due to price, otherwise highly recommend. read more

For the price, the food just was not it. The onion rings were extremely dry and the rest of the food for the most part flavorless. We expected so much more. read more

Outstanding service, food and drinks. Loved the Buffalo ribeye. The atmosphere was fantastic. Loved the old fashioned vibe. Can't wait to get back up there in those neck of the woods again. read more

I thought the service was amazing. From the moment we walked in, the staff were friendly and attentive. The overall restaurant has a romantic atmosphere to it and it's perfect for a date night. We passed it on Valentine's Day and it was packed! However, I didn't absolutely love my food, though my partner did love his Bison steak. I ordered the Bison brisket with garlic mashed potatoes and buttered broccoli and out of everything my favorite were the mashed potatoes. The brisket just tasted bland, unfortunately. I also found the lemonade to be quite flavorful and refreshing, so highly recommend trying it! read more

The atmosphere was nice and there were lights at most tables which gave it a "romantic" feeling. The service was good and the waitress checked in on us multiple times to ensure we were taken care of. The beef burger was good, but the bison New York strip was slightly bland. The price of the meal was unfortunately higher than the quality of food we received. read more

Loved this place for the past 15 years... until now. Last couple times I went, the food quantity and quality was terrible. They are no longer cooking using large size meats, and even the classic red rock chicken sandwich was sad. The chicken breast was dry and half the size of the bread it was on. There was not much in the way of sauce on there. The fries weren't even good somehow (dry and clearly not home made). The smash burger sadly was a regular burger, not much smash to it and it was also overcooked and dry. The wait staff was however, very nice, but unable to rectify the situation. It's sad to see this Bozeman staple hit the lows many other places in town have. Ted's used to be the most consistent restaurant in town. RIP. read more
