“Service, atmosphere, food quality…this restaurant always delivers.“

“Food and service was amazing thank you so much love this place highly recommend!!!!“

“I was with a 20 top and I just wanna say the service was out of the park. Our awesome server Autumn remembered everyone’s names, what we were drinking, she was always making sure we were doing okay, I just think that type of service is beyond fabulous. As a service industry worker, I don’t like when large groups come in 😂 But they were phenomenal. Food was delicious too 👌One more shout out for Autumn !!!“

“Last night we found ourselves at Phattys Steak & Seafood here in beautiful Billings Montana. Upon walking in the front door my nose was greeted with the most divine smells of butter, cheese and garlic setting the mood right for a wonderful dinner to come. After review of their diverse menu, we decided to start with some char-broiled oysters. Let me tell you, they have those figured out. A dash of hot sauce and a quick down the hatch, my taste buds exploded with sensations I have a hard time coming up with words for. I decided to stray from my normal meat and potatoes style dinner for my main course with a pasta dish. The Blackend Chicken and Andouille pasta caught my eye, and it did not disappoint. Exploding with classic Cajun flavors, it was everything it needed to be. My date decided to go with a classic Connecticut style Lobster Roll. The taste of warm lobster and butter with a perfectly grilled roll was sensational. It's not very often we get talked into a desert, but tonight seemed like a break from the ordinary. They had a Pineapple Creme Brulee and omg. The top was crispy, the custard was creamy and on the bottom boasted a surprise of a pineapple filling that totally set this creme brulee apart from all the others I have ever tried. Our service was top notch, the ambiance was classic steak house mixed with a modern upscale vibe. One thing I could not understand is why this place is not packed on a Saturday night!!! Don't be sleeping on this place friends!!! I 100% recommend this fine establishment and look forward to visiting it again!!!“

“Jonella is my favorite waitress, she has been there for years and knows whats good.“

“Such a cool and unique place! Bread is out of this world. If you haven’t tried the bread guts dipped in ranch, have you even lived? 😅“

“I recently had Montana Jack's cater an event for me. the food was so tasty and exceptional! everything was ready to be picked up on time and the service that I received was professional and friendly. the fruit Spears that we ordered were so beautiful and all of the food was so tasty! we had compliments throughout the night of our event about how great all of the food was! thank you!“

“Old styled venue, for breakfast and lunch spot, when we checked in early around 7am, not really crowded, the gentle lady offered us coffee and drinks warmly, we made our own customized breakfast menu and ordered 2 medium half fry eggs with 1 french toast, scrambled eggs and pan cake, the portion of scrambled egg was smaller though pan cake and other items quantities were fair enough, we re filled our coffee cups, and spent like 30 min. The prices are reasonable also, the atmosphere calm, definitely visit again if we need to go for breakfast.

Parking: the cafe located to nearby livestock area, so plenty of parking.“

“Just ordered from the corndog Company for the first time today for lunch. As soon as I took my first bite, it immediately became the best corn dog ever had! Extremely impressed.“

“Chef Kenny and his staff are all very welcoming and friendly! The restaurant is both clean and beautiful. The food is over the top amazing, my husband and I both highly recommended!“

“I normally order takeout and was hooked on the Monte Cristo until I tried the Fully Loaded Philly. Now I'm totally hooked on that. I really can't get enough. I also really enjoy the brisket nachos. And if you don't like those I'm sure you'll find something you will like. The food here is great!“

“We were very pleased with our service and food. Order was correct and came out timely. Thank you.

Kid-friendliness: The waitress brought out an applesauce for the 3 year old with our soup so she had something as well. She also brought a year out at the end for the child. Very much appreciated. I wish more restaurants would do these little things.“

“#1 in family friendly workers“

“Great food and a great atmosphere“

“stopped in for the first time had salmon tacos burger and prime rib sandwich topped of with a cider that was the best ive ever had highly recomend to anyone.“

“Service was below average. The steak was below average and had to ask for a fresher salad as the first one was wilted and brown. My wife’s Seafood Louie was terrible and was on a bed of wilted lettuce. We could have had a better meal at Denny’s for half the price.“

“I recommend requesting Stephanie's table. She is awesome. The food is pretty good also. Happy dining.“

“Great food and spectacular views of the mountains and the rim. My dinner was amazing and the staff was top notch. Highly recommend.“

“The staff is very friendly and it is very open and comfortable. The fish tacos are amazing!“

“2 for 2 this month!! This place doesn’t miss. Thank you again for another wonderful experience.“

“The Local is easily one of Billings' best restaurants. Sitting at the bar with a full view of the kitchen and watching the staff interact is a privilege that enhances the entire experience. Then there is the food. Oh, the food. Have you ever had a meal so good sometimes you catch yourself daydreaming about it months or years later? A smell or a sound will trigger the memory and you can't help reminisce out loud.. "Remember when we had _____ at the Local?" It's the kind of meal I've come to expect when eating here and have never been disappointed. In fact, they somehow keep seeming to raise the bar, with their newest menu blowing my mind just last week. I didn't know that candied bell peppers would be such a delight so simple, yet so perfect as a garnish that they have me yearning for just one... more... bite. The attention to detail, quality of ingredients, innovative menu, top shelf staff and service all blend into an unforgettable experience that is exactly what eating out should be.“

“Probably the best wings in Montana. I'm from back east, and these wings are just as good as any good bar wing back in the NY state area. I've tried all the flavors too. My top two are the camp fire, and the southern bbq...but they all have good flavor, size, and crispness. I need to try some of their other food, but always end up with wings.Also, thanks for keeping the prices at decent levels...I hope your business stays successful for being so good to your customers and not gouging them like everyone else is doing.“

“We called ahead and went for a small (8 person) get together. We had to wait over 40 minutes to be seated. One of our party had cold, dry, chicken strips and fries. The artichoke dip was weak. The other food choices were good, they were out of their special 6/8. The waiter did a great job.“

“Christian E was our waiter and he was amazing!!! Had a rude lady behind us and he was amazing with dealing with her!!! Recommend him to be your waiter!!“

“#1 in family friendly workers“

“It is difficult to make basic comfort food taste good, and Perkins does it in spades. Major compliments to the kitchen staff for knowing how to make simple food VERY well.

Also; our server, John, was amazingly kind, professional, and overall just a fantastic face at this place. I’d like to shout him out specifically!

Kid-friendliness: Good for picky eaters/basic palates.“

“We come here often on Fridays for lunch. I have to call out the manager and Jenna for being so amazing. The manager is always attentive whether it's helping bring food out, holding the door for patrons coming in or leaving, and making things right when they aren't. Jenna is great! She is always in a friendly mood, pleasant to be around and carry small conversation with. She is always on top of your needs before you have to ask. We love this location and would always recommend it. It is also central to metra if you are visiting town for an event.“

“Wonderful food, beautifully prepared. Also really great service.“

“Our waiter was fantastic.“

“We recently celebrated our anniversary at Bin 119. The food was beautifully plated and very tasty. My husband ordered the gnocchi and remarked how good , and prepared differently than he’s had at other establishments. He orders gnocchi anytime he can, and he was very impressed. I ordered the watermelon salad, and the arancini and although I usually order a meat entree, this was quite filling and satisfying. One thing of note is, the staff discreetly recognized it was a special evening for us, and brought out a specially made starter (not on the menu). And they finished our meal off with a lovely card thanking us. Many thanks to the staff at Bin 119!“

“These guys are are fantastic! They truly care about their customers and will go out of their way to serve you. Never had a bad meal.“

“We visited for brunch this morning and as we walked in, the place was pretty full due to a celebration of life. That didn’t impact the experience at all because the team at the Bunker were on top of it! We found 2 seats at the bar with a GREAT view of the course, Austyn quickly welcomed us and we had a really good brunch. The pastrami hash was tasty, my eggs were perfect (and I’m picky about them) and my husband’s omelette was delish. Austyn made me a Caesar by hand that was just the ticket to start a great Saturday. We will be back!“

“We have eaten here several times before and the food is consistently good. The last couple of times we have eaten here they have had staff shortages in the kitchen and the wait for food has been almost extreme (35 minutes this time). They have had to limit their afternoon hours so that they don't burn out their current cook staff. Go back to work, people!“

“met the owner tonight super nice and now they are off of Shiloh with a nice place ! Great food and helpful on what to order.“

“I probably should have had a burger.

The Mac and cheese is bad like it's made from the blue box at the store, same flavor different shaped noodles.
The lemon cake was amazing.
I also had a blta sandwich which maybe should have been named an avocado turkey club. It was ok.“

“Pet Friendly and a great staff“

“Absolutely the best macchiatos in Billings. customer service is fantastic as well. would HIGHLY RECOMMEND“

“A great crowd pleaser for the whole family! This is where I take my fam because they can never agree on anything ? Their re-vamped menu is impressive and the kitchen has been very consistent. Tons of Montana beers on tap, a zillion TVs visible from every angle, and lovely indoor/outdoor views.

Pro tip: if you don’t mind stairs, try parking in the lower lot after 5 pm—it’s usually way less crowded.“

“the food is really good for the price and the people are so nice that run it. They made our Thanksgiving dinner enjoyable“

“tends to be over crowded and noisy but otherwise a good place to eat.

Parking: there is parking all the way around the building but it is so busy most of the time that actually finding a spot is hard.

Kid-friendliness: lots of fun meals for the kids, and unless they have changed it recently they have those placemats that kids can color.

Wheelchair accessibility: there is handicap parking and the building is wheelchair accessible, but with how busy it is it can get a little tricky navigating inside with a wheelchair.“

“amazing food, fantastic employees great customer service!!! I will be back there for sure multiple times.“

“Usually good pizza and service. It’s hit-or-miss if the kitchen makes a mistake on your order. I enjoyed getting free pizza on my to-go order, however I would have preferred my order to be correct. A phone number is requested if there is a question about the order. Utilize it.“

“Always friendly and great service. Reasonable prices“
