Mine and my husband’s first time eating here and it was great! I think the only complaint was that he ordered mid-rare on his bison stake and it came out rare but it was still very tasty.

Our waitress was very sweet and the atmosphere was great. But the food was horrible. New York strip was very fatty but cooked well. Bison strip was very undercooked (ordered medium well). The mashed potatoes and gravy were not appealing and the broccoli was undercooked and flavorless. The crab cake appetizer was not worth the money spent. UPDATE: I spoke with Zane (GM) about our experience. He apologized and offered to send gift cards to use if we so wished. As we don't eat out often, I asked him to use it to pay for a Veteran's meal and he agreed. He was very kind and attentive in the conversation!

I honestly didn’t even know about Ted’s beforehand but recently, I was told about their DevourIndy menu so we decided to stop by. Walked in on a Monday at around 6 PM and they weren’t busy and had tables. Our waitress was super friendly and attentive to us. The overall vibe is very antique and I enjoyed it. We started with the homemade chips as an appetizer. Those were great! I got the Bowl of Chili and a side of fries as my entree. I was overall super impressed! The chili was fantastic and the fries were crispy. We then got a brownie for desert which that was super delish! Overall, if you’re on the northwest side, Ted’s Montana Grill is a great spot! I’ll be back.

We came here the first time and the food was good! The second time we ordered bison brisket and it tasted and looked like roast beef. It was very tough and very small portion. The carrots were super hard and undercooked, but the sweet tea was great!! The waitress was really good!

All-around excellent! The food was delicious, and the service was great. The server's name was Tez I believe, and he was awesome. We had several smaller items, including bison sliders, wedge salad, Caesar salad, and onion rings, which were all yummy.

Great place. The bison choices were abundant. I got the burger, and it just melted in my mouth. Very impressed with the quality. Pricing was what you would expect for a restaurant like this. Staff was super nice. I sat at the bar, and the bartres was attentive and prompt. Plenty of seating at dinner on a Wednesday.
