Menu had limited options but servers were very helpful, offered modifications to current menu to make gluten free. Was not guaranteed a gluten free fryer however I had no reaction to the French fries. Overall gluten free buns were good as well, had to explain to server it was a “allergy” rather than just saying I was celiac

Sauces and sides are marked as “gluten friendly” options. I’m very sensitive and did not react when I had the ribs. About half the menu can be modified to meet gluten free needs and the server was knowledgeable.

Waiter was not knowledgeable about the gluten free menu or wasn’t really interested in explaining the options. I’m fact he just made a point of making sure that it was clear it is gluten friendly. There really are not a lot of options and I would not trust that they are careful with cross contamination given the waiter’s attitude.

I got a steak. It was extremely over cooked and inedible. Do not recommend.

Went to Montana’s for lunch and informed the waitress I required a gluten free meal. I ordered the ribs and baked potato from the GF menu with no cornbread. After an hour we finally got our meal and I had cornbread on my plate. I informed them I ordered a gluten free meal and cannot have the cornbread. The server then tried to take the cornbread off my plate before I told them I will need them to make me a whole new plate. The server then argued with me saying the cornbread is gluten free even though their menu and allergen sheet clearly states it is not. I would not recommend.

Menu indicates GF dishes. Excellent service. I mentioned that I was coeliac to the server. She explained the grill was also used for gluten-containing items. I asked that they cook my steak in a skillet, which they did. Excellent service.

I ordered a brisket sandwich with a GF bun on the side and a side of potatoes. Specifying I was Celiac and DF. When I got it I got brisket covered in breaded onions and cheese. My mum specifying she was GF and DF asked for some of their GF barbecue sauce and she got a bottle of the sauce, she looked at the ingredients and there was wheat.

Montana's is a great place to eat! They have gluten free options marked on the menu. 3/4 flavors ribs are gluten free and they have gluten free burger buns.

Everything tastes delicious. They don't have a dedicated GF fryer so just ask for the baked potato in stead of the fries.

Has some great gluten free options. Manager and staff are aware of cross contamination.

All burgers can be made gluten free. Almost all spare ribs are also gluten free.

Fries are not gluten free, they fry them with everything else with gluten. Ask for the baked potato instead!

They are getting better about posting what is gluten free on their menu. They also have an allergen menu if you ask for it but takes a bit longer to go through. I do appreciate all their precautions and most servers are knowledgeable about celiac. I always have a long-winded conversation with them to make sure things are prepared safely.

I told the Staff I have Celiac and they ensured me that my food would be prepared in a separate spot in the kitchen. Using gluten free ingredients! It tasted great! 10/10 would recommend. (Fries are not made in separate fryer but they to substitutes)

Didn’t have a ton of options. They had nachos and chicken for sure but the burgers, steak and ribs were not labeled gluten free. Had the mushroom chicken which came with rice. Chicken was good but rice was really dry.

The waitress seemed very knowledgeable, telling me what sides were safe and what wasn’t, they recently changed their bacon bits and the new ones were not GF so we settled on the baked potato with no bacon bits... I got my meal and enjoyed a few bites of baked potato before realizing the bacon bits (concealed in sour cream)! I told the waitress and she didn’t charge me the extra cost of the baked potato ... luckily I didn’t get sick this time, I won’t be chancing it again at this establishment though ...

DO NOT eat here if you have Celiac Disease!! Their menu has things marked GF that are cross contaminated. Clearly knew I had celiac and still brought my salad with croutons. Turn away, NOT safe. Should not be listed in this app!

They had a few "gluten friendly" options, but they don't have a dedicated fryer, so be careful. They did at least know to warn us about that though.

Not gluten free but “gluten friendly” whatever that means. No dedicated fryer or kitchen space which eliminates all but 4 options on the menu and theres still no guarantee that there won’t be cross contamination.

Staff were very careful. I've been to many Montanas over the years, and always order the same thing. This time, after ordering, the manager came over and informed me that due to how busy they were they could not guarantee my order would be gluten free. They offered an alternative, and I went wth their suggestion. They were very careful, and I appreciate that. Great choice.

Make sure to say you have celiac and they will ensure that it is prepared properly. Ie. They will bake the potato skins vs deep frying. Jeremy on the pub side is awesome and helpful making choices.

I have been to many places with gluten free items marked on the menu. I have to be gluten and dairy free. The wait staff was knowledgeable and special preparations were made to avoid cross contamination. They were concerned with grilling my steak on the same grill so pan fried instead after asking me if that was ok. They even had my drink made special and staff washed hands to avoid cross contamination. (Which was un necessary imo but appreciated). Someone accidentally put my steak on the grill so the manager came and told me they were re making it. Very impressed with the care they took and the communication. Would go again.

Has a symbol to let you know which menu items are celiac friendly. I did react after eating sadly but hopefully it may have been a mix up and after writing them they will better improve their food prep.
