The steak came out perfectly cooked, a beautiful pink medium with a great sear and plenty of juices, served sizzling on a metal platter. What really stood out was the value. You'd expect to pay a premium for steak this good, but the prices are refreshingly reasonable -- a great cut at a price that's hard to beat. The menu keeps it simple and focused, which is exactly what you want from a proper steak house. Charming covered-bridge entrance, classic Montana atmosphere, and steak that delivers. If you're in Seeley Lake, don't skip it.

We happened to find Lindey's Prime Steakhouse and read the reviews. We happened to be a mile away! Not the simplicity of the menu and the flexibility that you can share a meal and have the meat cooked two different temperatures was very appealing. The salad was crisp and delicious and the salad dressing was wonderful. The garlic bread, albeit was a little overcooked. It was very tasty. The button mushrooms were tender and sautéed perfectly. The steak was amazing and a lot more than two people could complete in a meal. The potatoes were the only lackluster item that we received. They looked like some type of breakfast potato. They were a little bit undercooked, and there was a spice that was odd tasting on it. Otherwise excellent service, a great view and a great atmosphere and fabulous food There was a $2 charge for credit card that we weren't told about.

The salad was fresh and tasted as it should with anchovies and without bottled dressing. Service was friendly and attentive. Prices seemed appropriate for a high class steakhouse but some of the details could use some attention. I was surprised to see paper napkins. That is a no no. The tables are plastic and without tablecloths or placemats. The steak knifes are lightweight and cut poorly and despite the tenderness of my steak attempts at cutting led to the plate slipping about on the plastic table. These are things a first class steakhouse should be attentive to. I suspect that I will return as the quality of the food was quite good but perhaps not as often as I might.

The salad was good, and I really liked the homemade honey mustard dressing. The main dish, however was bland and barely edible. I had to add a lot of salt in order for it to be palatable.

Now I had never seen one of their bacon cheeseburgers before so I asked for an extra patty and when it came, I discovered that I probably didn't need that extra Patty! Each one was nearly an inch thick so it was nearly impossible to put my mouth around both those patties and the bun and the lettuce. That's OK though, I made due. I wasn't sure I could finish that whole burger because it was gigantic, but eventually, I did manage to finish it, but I could not finish the fries, which were also delicious. If you're in the area, I think Chubbys is a good place to go and the prices aren't too bad either. I was pretty impressed. Good job, chubbys!

Still pretty good and a bit on the salty side even without sauce on top Calamari is no longer in the menu and that was the appetizer I was most looking forward to.

If you want a taste of real American food, skip the fancy places and come to Ovando--Trixi's is where the locals eat. It's been serving hungry travelers and cowboys since the 1960s, and somehow it's still standing... unlike my willpower around a good burger and fries. Thank you, Trixi's, for keeping the Old West deliciously alive! Trixi's Antler Saloon is indeed a long-running Ovando landmark, named for a former trick rider/roper who bought it in the 1950s; it remains a family diner and saloon today read more

Quick word of advice: if you're heading east toward Butte, you'll need to drive through the whole town of Drummond to get back on the interstate. Parker's Restaurant sits conveniently just off the highway and boasts what might be the largest burger menu I've ever seen -- over 100 different options. The interior is eclectic, packed with nostalgic touches like vintage glass Coke bottles and quirky figurines. You can order from printed menus or from the massive chalkboard that runs the length of the restaurant, listing entrees from end to end. Even on a busy late Saturday afternoon, we were greeted promptly and seated right away, though open tables were limited. Our drink order was taken and delivered quickly, and the server was ready for our food order whenever we were. The only downside was the wait time -- about 30 minutes from ordering to the table. I had a tough time choosing, but ultimately went with the Ultimate Patty Melt: two ¼-pound patties, grilled onions, grilled peppers, Swiss cheese, and Thousand Island dressing on grilled dark rye. The patties were fresh, thick, and clearly hand-formed in the kitchen. The onions and peppers added great flavor, though I found the Thousand Island a bit lacking. Luckily, their fry sauce was excellent and made a perfect table-side substitute. My buddy ordered the Chili Size, which was massive and also featured two ¼-pound patties. As with any chili dish, the chili itself makes or breaks it -- theirs was solid, loaded with both beans and meat, and you could clearly taste the ground beef in every bite. Overall, Parker's delivers a fun, old-school roadside diner experience with huge portions and plenty of burger variety. Perfect stop if you're cruising through Montana on I-90!
