1 Highlander Taste

4.6 Superb 73 Reviews

3207 Canyon Ferry Rd, East Helena

“Our second meal from Highlander Taste. Had an amazing schnitzel sandwich at last summer’s Helena Mt beer festival. Each family member hit a different food truck and my Highlander schnitzel won hands down. We live in Canyon Ferry and drive right by the food truck nearly every day. Finally stopped to get their operating hours and wound up ordering. What a special meal! Wife and son had the schnitzel plate, with potato salad and cucumber salad. Very happy! I got their special with an amazing polish dog w/cream mustard, a cabbage goulash to die for, and four superb perogi (sp?). I opted for two meat and two potato, and couldn’t pick which was better! Excellent food at the new normal for prices. Their web page is coming, but they’re open Tuesday thru Thursday and Saturday 3-7, and Friday 11-7. Enjoy! Cheers, Sluggo”

“Ate here for the Easter buffet several years. Plenty of good food and desserts. Our servers have always been extremely attentive. The only strange thing that happened this year is the host didn't take us to our table. In a crowded room, she barely looked up from her phone to point out our table then went straight back to her phone.”

“We always stop for chicken when we come to town. It's always delicious! We always plan for a bit of a wait for a table and a bit more of a wait for food, but the chicken is worth it. Sadly tonight we had a less than pleasant experience. We were able to get a table and order right away, things were looking great. Then we waited and waited and waited... The table that sat down after we ordered got their food. Then we waited and the table next to us that arrived 20 minutes after we ordered got their food. The waitress was friendly and apologetic and told us it would be 7 more minutes. Ten minutes later and over 45 minutes after we ordered our 1 chicken dinner it arrived. The chicken was good as always but we weren't offered any type of recompense for our wait and in fact were given the wrong ticket. Not sure where the error was made but do better Suds Hut! We will be thinking about this experience next time we are in town and may choose to go elsewhere.”

“From the moment I walked in the door it was fantastic. I got greeted and was told they were happy I could make it and complimented my outfit (loved it). I felt so special. They were so kind the entire night. It was my husband’s grandmothers birthday and they were so kind to her. Also… this may be very specific, but the waitress did not come too often or too little. Never had to deal if wondering if she was going to come back or worry about her coming while my mouth was full. My first time here and hopefully not my last. Thank you for being so kind to us! :)”

“Food was great. This has been our second time here. We were sat near the kitchen area and everyone seemed to work together great. I heard kitchen staff call waiter/ waitresses and say “please” just about every time when food was up for them to get. TYLER was the best waiter we’ve had in a long time. (And we eat out ALOT). He had our order taken in a timely fashion, we got our appetizer and not long after got our burgers and fries! He refilled our drinks without even asking! Place was getting busy and he was running all over! Give this guy a raise!! Hands down recommend. *****”
