    Our usual enjoyable experience. Open Road is a great place to meet and dine with old friends, or just as a "regular" restaurant.

    Brick chicken was excellent. Mashed potatoes and broccolini perfectly complemented the chicken.

    It was a Saturday night and the place was not very busy which was a shame because the live musician was excellent and managed to entertain without drowning out all conversations! Not the case everywhere. We enjoyed our evening.

    We enjoyed a lovely and affordable Easter brunch at Open Road! My hubby had the all American breakfast and I had the brunch tacos and the "Great Falls ice cream" for dessert. The food was delish and we look forward to going back! Even the bowl of free popcorn provided while we were deciding our menu choices was a fun treat! Looking forward to trying other items on the menu! Highly recommend!

    I typically enjoy Open Road for viewing sports games and usually sit with one other person at the bar, but I have also sat at tables for dinner before. This was by the far the worst service I’ve had here. I appreciated that the hostess seated us at a table where we could see the game we wanted to watch, but after being seated it took 30 minutes for a server to come over to acknowledge us. We liked the food (wings and fajitas) but my daughter had to go to the bar to get a jar of water for the table as our server didn’t check back. Our dirty plates sat there a long time when we were done and finally someone else came to clear them and said they were trying to help. I get that it’s March Madness and it’s a busy time for them, but you have to be able to provide decent service still.

We will address these issues with our team to ensure they do not happen again. We appreciate you mentioning that you enjoyed the food, and we hope you will give us another opportunity to provide you with the service you expect and deserve. Kindest Regards, Jessica, Brand + Community Manager
