Wow. Overrated. Bad quality control. Terrible bread that literally falls apart. Squash Caseerole was just ok, very dry. All my food the filet, brocoli and casserole were just room temp. The brocoli minus the temp was very good. My filet was just ok. About as good as Texas Road House. My husbands Bison Ribeye had good flavor, but just ok. The dessert a fudge brownie came out cold hard as a rock with unmelted fudge we could not pour out on to the dessert. We sent it back. We will never go back for dinner, but may try the burgers foe lunch.

Managers Justin (day) and John (evening)could not have made my husband and me feel more welcome nor more appreciated than we did tonight at Ted's Montana Grill in Southlands. Phenomenal food, with our favorite Buffalo prepared exactly the way we like it, and a wonderful large crab cake appetizer for our celebration of my husband's retirement were such a treat! The sides...garlic mashed potatoes, grilled asparagus and complimentary fresh refrigerator pickles were out of this world! Our waitress, Daniela, was always right on it when we needed anything, and gave superb service all night long. I recommend that everyone to go there to celebrate anything...even an evening out for no reason! It's so well worth the prices and quality of the fantastic food. Call first or go early and your wait might be a lot less. We had no wait at all at 5:30 p.m. THANK YOU to Justin, John and Daniela for making our celebration one we will never forget! We'll definitely be back soon. Most sincerely, Mary (Candy) and John

Teds burgers were great. Perfectky cooked on a toasty roll. I ordered the #11. It had horseradish aioli and horseradish cheese topped with buffalo pot roast. It comes with a side of fries that were fresh cut. I sat at the bar and was delighted by the freindly and fast servce and enjoyed the open kitchen where we watched everyones food made to order. On thing I noticed was that everyone who worked there was watching each other making sure all the food and drinks xame out right. No short cuts here. Price was a little high. $17 burgers and $5.5 micro brews. This was ok due high quality of the fare. I have spent $14 on a crap burger. A happy hour would be nice. All and all Teds at the southlands is were to go if you want great traditional American fair.

Valentine's lunch...I have never had such bad food! The ribeye was flavorful but all the sides were flavorless and very disappointing. I highly suggest going to a real steak house and avoiding this one.

It's been 3 years so feels like time to update my review. Ted's is still spectacular. The burger was cooked exactly right and was both juicy and well-done, which it seems no one else can ever actually do Bacon was thick and crispy and the fries were almost perfect, too (could have used a little bit of seasoning). Service was good as always, and even though the prices are high, they're no higher than OC just down the row.

The 3 stars are for the service. Food is quite good. Service was just so-so. Our waiter was nice but absent most of the night. Others brought us our food & had to wait to have water glass refilled. Will we be back to this location? Probably not.

We come to this Ted's quite a bit so I don' t like writing this review but I feel I need to. We took the time to make reservations for this evening but when we got here it took 25 minutes after our reservation time to get seated at a very cramped table. I hope the food and service is better than the wait time and table.

So delicious. My favorite of all the Ted's locations. Food is always cooked to perfection and the service is top notch. I recommend getting a booth, you'll feel like you're alone in the restaurant which makes for a great date night. The buffalo burgers are devine and the 50/50 fries and onion rings are delicious.

Yay! I'm a fan. The left side of brain told us to try something totally different and we were glad to step into this place. It was start of busy night and put our names on the wait list and sat at the bar. The bartenders were friendly and made us feel like we been coming her for years. Well, the truth was that it was our very 1st time. We have been coming to this area ever since it opened and was never compelled to visit this place. Well, we thought it was up scale steak place and we are not really into that too often. While sitting at the bar, we could see the cooks working on burgers. they just scoop out the ground beef, weigh it and make a pattie and season and put in on the grill and put a cover.. appeared they were selling lot of burgers.. We sat down on the booth.. the service was immaculate, atmosphere was great, food was good. I had bison meatloaf and .. it was first time i think.. and was so so.. kinda on dry side.. and meat was very soft.. no texture feeling.. the sides were good.. the pickles that was served at the beginning was interesting.. i should went for the burger.. oh well.. there is always next time! * its always fishy to find 5 star review from a yelper with only one review.

I visited last night and enjoyed my evening and the staff. They were eager to please and genuinely friendly. The only drawback is their restroom. It was very cold, the water was very cold and they have the most primative paper towel dispenser available; hand crank. Surprisingly cheap amenities for the type of restaurant.

Go here if you're prepared to spend $15 for a good hamburger. Do NOT bother if you have to get anything off the children's menu. My 8 year old could barely stomach the "mac n cheese" which was overcooked elbow macaroni with runny nacho cheese squeezed on top. It was disgusting. Our waitress was super sweet and did what she could to accommodate. She took that meal off our bill. My son's "grilled cheese" was pitiful as well. One thin slice of processed cheese between 2 thick dried out pieces of bread. I won't ever take the kids back there.

Dropped in to have a quick burger and was pretty impressed with everything except the price/quality ratio. I had the knife and fork chili cheese burger, and not only was the concept great, but it looked really appetizing when it arrived. One SUPER nice touch about Ted's is that they serve pickles as pre-meal snack instead of bread... that was a super enjoyable way to munch and chat without stuffing my face full of carbs. Good call! The burger itself was good, but cooked (if I can use that word) WAY too rare -- I ordered medium rare and this sucker was cold and pretty much raw inside. However, I actually prefer rare vs. overcooked, so I didn't send it back. That was the only knock on the place except for the price of the burger: $15. I will be totally honest, the price:value ratio is very important for me at a restaurant -- I'm not a cheapskate (I don't mind paying quite a bit for a great meal), but I'm not the kind of guy that enjoys paying $4/gallon for gas when I can drive 500 feet up the road and buy it for $3/gallon. Same with burgers -- if you're serving up a $15 burger, it better be spot-on otherwise, I can roll a half mile up the street and get something similar for $8. The Ted's burger I had wasn't a $15 burger, but it was close enough that I still had a really enjoyable meal. Will I give Ted's another shot -- absolutely! The menu is creative, and the rest of my experience was top notch.

I have been to many Ted's locations over the years. I was sad when they stopped offering the bread and not a fan of the cucumbers they bring instead. They discontinued the chicken I used to get but I tried the cranberry chicken and it was great. My daughter loves the bison burgers. We went last night and had some miscommunication with the waitress. We thought she was going to box our food but she tossed it instead. An honest mistake. She got the manger and he happily replaced our food. The service is always good and I am always happy with my food. The portions are a good size.

This place is always buzzing. The wait staff, bartenders, and cooks make it a fun, animated place. If you'd like to have a really fun time, sit at the bar near the grill and watch how everything works. The food is fresh and delicious and prepared perfectly! The manager, Sean, is a great guy who loves his customers and his job. He'll give you a tour of the kitchen anytime! Check it out.

My girlfriend and myself love Ted's. We've eaten at a few of them around town,but this location is our favorite. I ordered the end cut prime rib, and you get a Friggin roast!!! My girlfriend ordered the jalapeno bison burger. Everything was awesome. Love the pickled cucumbers. Zach our waiter is all over it even when it was busy. A couple of giant lemon drop martinis and it's a trip to Ted's.

I love this place!!! I have been to a lot of the other locations and this one is my favorite. The Burger I ordered was amazing. Our waitress was very very nice. When the check came I noticed she forgot to add my drink on the check, I pointed this out to her and she told me it's okay but I insisted she add it so I could pay for it. There isn't anything I could change about this location! Must get the Bison burger. SO SO good!!!!

We've eaten her a few times and it's never been quite right. Tonight it ALMOST was. Always order the bison it's really great. Zach our waiter was great. The appetizer menu needs updating. Not a lot to chose from. I'd eat here again, but ONLY ORDER THE BISON!

I am a fan of this place. I feel like this is where I can go if I want a good home-cooked meal or a nice bison burger. I like that their kids meals are pretty awesome too. My kids love to eat here because of the nice variety and portions they have... not too much but not too little either. Just right, as Goldie Locks says. The service here has always been great. Thanks Ted's for hiring a pretty cool staff!

This place was one bad restaurant cliche after another. Employees milling around the host stand the whole time, inattentive bartender on Sunday night (it was slow), other customers being ignored, my order was wrong, my friend's order was wrong, a to go customer had a wrong order and ended up waiting for more than 15 minutes, dirty plates and empty bottles in front of us all night (despite more than 6 staff including the manager on duty standing around the host area all night, which was 8 feet from us.) I only came here because it was close to the hotel we stayed at near the airport. I certainly won't be coming back here ever again. I suppose that the sheer amount of transient customers who come through due to the proximity of the airport is how this atrocious service is allowed to continue. I read the name of the proprietor on the front door was Monica. If you are reading this, you should fire everyone who worked on 4/21/13. As for the food, it was just ok. The "filet" on the menu was clearly a flat iron cut (teres major). But I was suspect about the price ($22) for a filet to begin with. It tasted bland, was overcooked, and had the texture of a pounded cube steak. I guess the worst part is that there are only chain restaurants in the area, and this one clearly had the best reviews. So I can't imagine that there's anything better, which sucks if actually have to eat.

Have been there several times now and did not find a burger which didnt hit the spot. Interestingly enough we always have great waiters (not pretending and seriously taking care of business) no matter if it's packed or not - very knowledgable and thoughtful. E.g. yesterday I order my burger (Montana breakfast burger) and asked to have it cut in half ... no big deal but a different waiter served it and it was uncut ... our waiter showed up later and excused the situation (at that time I've done it myself) where in other places it would not be noticed at all... We even had fish dishes here and they were pretty good - I know you dont go to a meat place eating fish but we tried it and it was delicious. The only thing on the menu I didn't really like that much so far are the Bison Nachos - kinda weak in flavor and presentation - it was missing guacamole, real amounts of Bison meat and sauce and had nearly no cheese on it - but I have to say that our waiter noticed it and brought more chili for the bottom nachos ... Again I like the ambiente and burgers, the only thing I wish that they had a paper wrap 1/2 around the burger to keep everything under control (like Red Robin has...) but otherwise it's a great spot and great interior - I really like to come here even no lunch menu invites you and therefor I prefer coming for dinner. Still have not been through all burgers but the kitchen sink is still my favorite!

okay so I've been here a few times. I won't go back. The first time the service was slow and the staff not very knowledgeable. The 2nd time I came in with a friend and we sat at the bar. It was like a ghost town. After 15 minutes and no one had even said hello to us we left and went across the street to McCabes. This last time I went with my family and the hostess had us following her all over the place. She seems pretty scattered. Then the server was really nervous like she hadn't been there very long and was unsure of herself. All in all this last time was just ok. The food was terrific but due to service every time, i'll pass.

Usually one of my favorite go to places! Went there Sunday night and was VERY dissapointed in my service, the lack of effort & the quality of my Bison Burger (which Is usually rt on the money) not at all the case Sunday night! My same server that I've had the last 4-5 visits here, (Rachel) was training a new gi and was obviously put out by this and it showed! Eye rolling and very unapologetic when the food took 40+ minutes to arrive and we asked for refills. You'd think that a $95 tab and pretty usual $25 tip would help ease her training pain from us ( especially since she had a trainee helper..?) not the case. Very sad since in the past I've called the locations GM on my 1st visit there to send such high regards on how great her level of service was! That has now been forever ruined. Food came out, already had a bad taste in my mouth, well the entree tastes was even worse to wash it down!! Doubt I'll ever return to a Teds MG after this experience. Poor poor efforts on their part.. Would rather give my biz to Salt Grass or Outback which is sad, but true!

2nd time dining at Ted Montana Grill and both times disgusting. The decor, the convenient location and the server who waited on us were great. So how do you mess up a $15 Steak Salad? Overcooked, tough strips of steak (asked for med rare) and the crispy onion straws on top of the salad honestly tasted like rubber bands, barely any dressing & wilted lettuce! The waiter saw me taking the onion straws off and asked if they were ok. I told him they were old & he brought back more of the same, except.... they first dumped them in hot grease before bringing them out to me. Not only were they old, but now they were clearly over-fried & greasy..yuck. Husband got the Buffalo Bison meatloaf which was dry & the veggies in the side dish looked & tasted like something that had been sitting in a buffet style restaurant for days (crusted over top & mushy under that crusted top.) Kids got burgers and the fries tasted like they were reheated. Med-rare burgers were well done & dry. If you want mustard or ketsup, you'd better ask for them well ahead of receiving your order! I really wanted to like this place, but was disgusted both times. McDonalds honestly would have been a better choice!

Ate here for the first time, for lunch, and all I can say is WOW! Figured it was going to be your usual bar and grill table fare and it was that, but on a much higher level. Their menu listed at least a couple of dozen burger (your choice of beef, chicken or bison) choices and a variety of salads and entree's. There was a good variety. (Sorry I can't expound because I was too focused on the great variety of burgers they had.) I settled for the "Kitchen Sink" burger....bacon, fried egg, ham, cheese, beef patty and the usual garnishments on the side. I am pretty sure I left something out. Anyway, it came and it was huge! I could barely wrap my mouth around it to take a bite, but when I did it was worth it. Juicy and full of flavor. Their fries were very good, thin and crispy with just the right amount of seasoning. It was also the first time I have ever been served home-made dill pickle slices for pre-meal gnoshing...very good. Two BIG thumbs up!

I have to be perfectly honest - I didn't have exceedingly high expectations for Ted's. Dunno why. I just naturally associated it with other chain restaurants which were decidedly mediocre. However, our dining experience was a good one, so color me surprised. I had a bison burger with mushrooms, caramelized onions and Monterey Jack cheese on a wheat bun and a baked sweet potato while my husband had the bison meatloaf. The burger and the meatloaf had a very robust, savory meaty flavor. The meatloaf was a bit sweeter because of the glaze they topped it with. The squash casserole that came as the side with the meatloaf was pretty good. It was nicely cooked, and the breadcrumb topping was a nice touch. Best of all, nothing was overly salty. Oh, and they have cool straws made from recycled paper. Why don't more restaurants have these? Our server was super chipper, and at the end of the meal, I told my husbad, "She reminds me of someone, but I can't put my finger on it..." "Jaime Pressly," he said. "THAT'S IT!" I said, probably a little too loudly since my exclamation made the bar patrons glance back at our booth. To summarize, a good meal and a celebrity look-a-like waitress.

We went here on New Year's Eve 2011 at about 7pm and even without a reservation, we were seated within 15 mins (party of two). The hostess was courteous and friendly, as was the waitress. Ambient noise was at a reasonable level, and our booth was cozy and clean. We had the bison short ribs (special of the night) and bison meatloaf. Both dishes were excellent; it was my first time trying bison and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Unfortunately, our drinks arrived after our meal (including water); however in the defense of our waitress, our food arrived at our table no more than five minutes after we ordered. For as busy as the place was (and considering it was New Year's Eve), I did not expect such a quick turnaround on our food. Waitress was very attentive without being intrusive. While normally not a dessert person, we shared the apple crisp with ice cream. The waitress (who I wish I could remember her name) advised that it was a dessert that could be shared and she was correct. A family of four could've shared that dessert and be satisfied. It too, was delicious. The bill was very reasonable, and they gave us a 15% military discount. We did not know they offered a military discount, and while I did not present my retired military ID, I am guessing because I used an USAA debit card, they correctly assumed I was affiliated with the military. I recommend this restaurant at this location and will definitely return. Would give 4.5 stars, if I could.

The service here is hit or miss. For those who don't know, patrons usually get a free, little bowl of cucumbers as they sit down. However, every so often, the waitress will say they are bringing cucumbers and it comes with the entrees or never at all. This place is normally really awesome as far as the food goes (that's why the 3 stars instead of 1). I always order a medium rare prime rib here. However, the last time I went here (approximately a year ago), the prime rib was overcooked (dry and the color was past the usual red center). If I have to pay $21 for a 12oz prime rib, I would expect it to at least be within the rare to well done temperature range every time, not overcooked. I have found another place that cooks medium rare prime rib properly, so I will be going there now. However, going to that place reminded me of Ted's, so I decided to post a review here now.

Thomas P.
Ok, so the place is good, the food is consistent (as with most chains) but the service is hit or miss. That is a small price to pay for a bison steak though. I will continue to come back to this Ted's. The dining room and bar are clean, food is delivered quickly, and it won't cost you an arm and a leg. Try this place next time you are out. BEWARE THE WAIT TIMES on Fridays and Saturdays as this place fills up fast!

Julie M.
Had great service. The ambiance and decor is nice but a little loud. The homemade sweet dill pickles they served were too salty for me but others in my party loved them. The onion rings are the best I have ever had. The perfect ratio of crispy crust to nice thick onion slice and served with a creamy horseradish sauce. The ribeye I had was cooked to perfection and the leftover horseradish sauce was yummy on it, too! The grilled asparagus had a funky taste (kind of like kerosene smells) so I didn't eat too much of that, but it didn't ruin the meal. I could see trying to work my way through the extensive list of burgers if I lived in the area.

First time to Ted's and will definitely be back. Food was great and everything cooked perfectly. Really enjoyed the atmosphere, the location and the food. The service was a little iffy while the waitress flirted with a group of men but otherwise everything was excellent. Filet was perfect and was very reasonably priced for similar quality at other locations. Strongly recommend this location.

I have visited regularly for several years now. I've come to know the staff and really enjoy the dining experience! If it's your first visit, expect real staff members. Friendly folks who are there with the goal of really making the experience an enjoyable one! On top of that, you'll enjoy a wide variety of comfort food, steaks, burgers and much more! Enjoying dinner seated or at the bar is a great experience. Give it a try!

I have been here a few times. They are pretty typical with there service. Though one man we were with said no he hadn't been there before when asked by our waitress. This was a mistake because she went on a speech for what seemed like ten minutes about the restaurant, specials and such. It became almost amusing. Server was almost trying to hard that she messed up our drink order. Brought one man water instead of tea. Not a big deal. So I love their house sour pickles. Have had many different burgers they are all good. Though I have yet to have one come out medium when ordered that way. I tried the meatloaf on my last visit, thinking it would be quite a helping of food based off of others restaurants I have tried it out. It came out with just two little slivers and about a tbsp of gravy on it. Not very impressed for a place who has lots of good ole home cooking meals. The onion rings for an app are ok. They breading is more homestyle than your typical ones if you like that. Though I don't think you get much of the salt and pepper flavor they claim to be. I think if you have been to one Ted's you've seen them all.

I was pleasantly surprised with Ted's. The selection of food is awesome, the prices are very reasonable (i.e. I thought this place was super-expensive for some reason) and it's great for kids. We went early on a Friday and found it almost deserted which was great for two small kids. They don't give crayons to kids...they give them some bendy toys that really kept the imagination of my 2.5 and 5 year-olds. Something crayons haven't done in years. I will certainly be back and can't wait to try more of the steak. It was quite good.

I was first introduced to Ted's Montana Grill in Columbus, OH. I've been there numerous occasions and have even taken my parents there when they've come out for visits. I love bison meat. It's a bit leaner than beef, which I enjoy. Their burgers are huge though! I've had the avocado bison burger and george's cadillac (with BBQ sauce, I think). I think the plain burgers are pretty darn good too. They all come with a side of hand-cut fries. Mmmm... yum! Their bison chili is delish too. Sounds like a perfect meal for a cold Denver day like today (34º this morning). Last time we went, we ate at the bar. It was neat watching them prepare all of the food in the open kitchen. I had a bowl of chili and a salad. I can't remember the type of salad, but it had cucumbers, tomatoes, some sort of meat (I want to say salami), and a vinaigrette dressing. There were other toppings too, but I just can't remember it. I loved it though! I would definitely order it again. Now I'm craving a bison burger. And the only way to cure a bison burger craving is to eat at Ted's.

We usually dine at the bar on Friday nights. The food is consistently good and we are always taken excellent care of by Wade and Ashley. Managers Jay and Jade are always friendly and make us feel welcome. A very friendly restaurant with excellent food and service! Jon, Leroy, and the rest of the wait staff are all very friendly. We do miss Scott and Sam who always took excellent care of us while they worked behind the bar.

Ahhh. The memories of Colorado. . . We had dinner here after a hard day of training (Darn you) and I can sure say it's well worth it. Walking in felt a replay of Disney's Story Teller's Cafe and a mix of Claim Jumpers. The atmosphere was nice and cozy. Music was playing - can't remember what was on - but I'm glad it wasn't any of that yeehaw giddie up stuff that I've been listening to on the way there. The best thing was that I was able to hear the people in front of me. Kinda hard for me to ignore folks nowadays. I had Salmon, and my colleague had Bison. I had a taste of it (not my first time) but it was pretty good. A little on the gamey side, but that was totally expected. Cool place for dinner and to borrow an umbrella when it starts to pour right when you walk out the door.

I went to Ted's Montana Grill for the third time last night. The first two times I had prime rib but my wife convinced me to try one of their burgers this time around. We started off with crab cake which was delicious although a little expensive. I ordered the beef America's Cup burger which has bacon, American cheese, grilled onions, and grilled mushrooms on it. The waitress asked how I wanted it cooked. My wife and I both ordered medium and the waitress wanted to make sure we were okay with some pink. The burgers arrived after what seemed like a lengthy period of time, probably about 15 minutes. Both of our burgers were well-done. The biggest problem was the bun. Both of our buns were soaked on the bottom. I took a bite and the bottom half of the bun was burned on top and dripping wet on the bottom. It was a horrible combination. We agreed that Five Guys is more consistent with their burgers and also about 30% of the cost of going to Ted's. I won't be getting another burger at Ted's.

We love this place! The service is always great! It is clear that TMG only hires people with great attitudes. We love their hamburgers! The hamburgers? Yes, you've got to check them out. Bison or beef - no matter. They have a special technique on cooking hamburgers. Everything else is good too. Overall, it's the great service that we really appreciate.

My Wife and I ate at Ted's Montana Grill in Denver on Larimer and it was great, thanks Dane for a terrific experience. We were hoping for a Ted' Montana Grill closer to Parker and found one in Aurora at Southlands. We love this place! Our waitress at Southlands was Cathee and her assistant in training Tony were excellent. We loved their service, their kindness and how well we were taken care of. We will definitely go back and ask for Cathee, what an outstanding experience. Ted's Montana Grill at Southlands will be our Friday night dinner spot for sure.

I've been to this location twice, once to another location. Never super busy, didn't have to wait. I had a group lunch there of about 20 people and the staff handled it very well.

First experience with Ted's was this year in downtown Atlanta and I really enjoyed the food. Was happy to see this location open up near the house and stopped by for dinner with some friends. Ted's serves comfort food, hamburgers, meatloaf, salmon, chicken noodle soup. Nothing too fancy. They're known for their hamburgers and bison-burgers. They are really good, and I'd stick with those.

This was the first time I had ever had a Bison steak and I have to say it was pretty good. We had a great waiter and the other staff was friendly. They have a great selection of items and were willing to help out my GF with her meal restrictions, they also have a gluten free menu. This place can get a little cold during the winter for some reason (stay away from the windows) and the floor is a death trap when its wet. Besides those last items it was a great night out.

I have been to this Ted's twice....the first time was NOT a good food experience. I absolutely love good food and Ted's didn't deliver. the service was horrible and the food just as bad....I even had to send my steak back.....it was awful. However, given that it had only opened the month before, I thought I had better try again after it had been opened awhile. My hubby and I hit it again a month ago....for a late lunch before a movie. I ordered the blue cheese something bison burger....can't remember the exact name. It was awesome!! It was so darned juicy and delicious! I had trouble keeping the juicy thing together and I ate every damned bite! It was truly a sight to behold really....I am not a big girl and the burger was definitely too large for me! My hubby didn't even finish HIS :-) I had the fresh squeezed lemonade too and it was awesome! Yes, I can eat....and eat....especially when the food is superior. It rather disappointed me the first time around but the second time was it's saving grace. :-) We will have to go again and eat while we watch the kids skate at the ice rink this Xmas :-)

Located in a very confusing shopping center, the address 6105 really doesn't help since most storefronts don't post their address. I just parked and looked for one of those Directory displays you see in every mall. None to be found in a 3 block walk. I finally asked somebody who appeared to know the area and she kindly pointed me in the right direction. I will say Denver residents are very friendly. A big establishment that looks really nice inside. Leather booths and chairs. Cloth napkins. The whole nine yards. A friendly staff greeting at the door. I got there between lunch and dinner, so it wasn't crowded at all. I was seated immediately. Ordered the Red Rock burger medium with a side caeser salad. The menu says it's an "eggless" dressing and that alarmed me a bit, but I can go with it. When the salad comes out, it's not what I expected. First, the plate was very warm. Right out of the dishwasher warm. Not a good start. The dressing is homemade, but it was just olive oil, lemon, and what appeared to be some parm cheese. There was no anchovy to this dressing. Also, the croutons are the cheapest croutons you can buy on the shelf at the local market. There was also no fresh grated parm on top. It was a disaster. I should have stopped my order and walked out, but I figured let's give this place a second chance with the burger. I asked for it medium which is pink in the middle. The burger came out well done. I called over a manager and said I would just like to walk out and I told him why and he said sorry and I left. I would have spent about $20 in this place for a burger and salad and it was a horrible experience. I went across the street to McCabes and got a decent bar burger with caeser salad for less then $8.

A bit pricey. I love Bison and so it was good for that. The service was slow even though there were like 5 tables of 2 concurrent customers.

You know why Ted's Montana Grill gets such high marks on Yelp? Its because it really is that good. The restaurants are always clean, the service is always on point and the food is outstanding. When I crave a hamburger (or bison burger) I head to Ted's. The food is fresh and made to order. They really try to be eco-consicence too. I love their pickles! Everything is just so damn good and perfectly cooked. You won't be disappointed by eating at Ted's only impressed!

I went to Ted's with a big group of people. They were very accomidating for a group our size (over 10). The service was a bit slow but the food was very good. I ordered the Beef Ribeye, my favorite steak, and it was one of the best I've had in a restaraunt. Cooked perfectly to order. Juicy, mmmm, good! The sides were good as well. Everyone in our group was pleased with what they ordered. I would definately come back again.

We're at the Ted's ALL THE TIME. We're certainly not Chain Restaurant people, but we're in Southlands Mall daily, and there are few food choices. So when the movie lets out, and you're faced with either PF Chang's, Red Lobster or Ted's....well, Ted's it is. The burgers are terrific, Rib Eye has 3 oz of grizzle and fat, but other then that...Ok...I guess. Onion Rings are the worst...breaded not beer battered Vegies are of the frozen variety. So, why the 4 stars....it's local, it's not terribly expensive, and they'll make a 1/2 bison, 1/2 beef burger, just the way I like it. Black and Blue

It was my first time going there. I was really hoping that it was going to be really tasty. It was a very busy night. My fiance told me that it was really good. So we get in my fiance orders a burger and I order the bbq chicken salad. My salad came out and I dig through my salad and take a couple bites. I kept feeling like it was strange because I did not taste any chicken in my salad. I ask my fiance, confused if the bbq chicken salad was just a name and it did not contain chicken salad. He said that it should have chicken in there. The salad was 12 dollars of course. So the server came by and I had asked him if there was supposed to be chicken salad in there and he said ya. Oh ya it is stripped in there and pointed to my plate and said I see some chicken right there. And he asked if I wanted some more chicken salad. I said yes sure... He left and I looked in my plate and thought to myself am I blind because I do not see any chicken. He brought my bbq chicken and all I could smell was bbq like that smell was not there before. I was very very disappointed. Not with my salad that had no chicken, but with the server that lied to my face and made me feel really dumb. I had no more appetite and packed my salad to go. My fiance did not finish his burger and usually he eats everything off his plate, but his burger bun was very soggy and not tasty at all. We will not go here anymore.

Average food, a little overpriced and not so good service. What can you really expect from a chain restaurant like this though. We had a restaurant.com gift certificate so we thought we'd try it out. I had the buffalo burger and the wife had some sandwich that she didn't really care for. I would eat here again because with the coupon it makes it affordable but just make sure you choose wisely from the menu.

Over the last few months the food quality has gone down hill. I love the ambiance but if your looking for melt in your mouth food I would recommend going elsewhere.

This place is AMAZING. Our server, Brent, was knowledgeable and incredibly helpful! Honestly, if you want to have a panty-dropping burger with top notch service, you should give this place a try, and request Brent! To sum it up, fantastic food, with even better service!

Yummm their bison burgers are pretty good! :) We were here on a Friday night and the wait was kind of long. I think we waited about 45 minutes before we were seated? So I don't think I would come back on a Friday night unless we had a lotttttt of time to kill. The bison nachos were the perfect appetizer. I would definitely order it again! I had the Red Rock bison burger and it was pretty good.. but it wasn't flavorful enough for me.. I usually love savory burgers FULL of flavor where each bite makes me say "mmmmmmmm!" hahaha.. the Z-sauce in this burger is supposed to be sweet like jam?.. but I barely tasted it. I don't think I would order this burger again. I wouldn't mind coming back to Ted's.. but if I was craving a burger.. there are many more burger joints that come to mind first.. But the service was super great! The manager was walking around asking everyone how the food was etc etc.. and our server was super helpful and nice. :)

If I could give this review zero stars I would. My parents and I came in before going to a movie at Southlands, and from the server to the manager it was a horrific experience. Maybe we should have taken the empty restaurant at 630 on a Sunday as a sign... But we wanted steaks. Let's start with the fact our server brought drinks, took orders and then checked on us once and never came back. So our drinks our empty someone drops off salads and we have to ask them to refill our drinks... Again the restaurant is empty so where she kept going is beyond me. Our salads have barley any dressing my dad has to get up and chase around someone to get us more dressing ... Oh and he has to sit there wait for the dressing to bring it back???? Really? No customer service!!!! So we get our steaks, first bite ok server ask... Never comes back as I cut into it more I notice it is rare! We are talking mooing .... I wait for her to come back and only once we have all pilled meat one plate does she return. We tell her how awful it was and not properly cooked and she goes ok I'll tell a manager. Well flipping great! We've enjoyed none of our meals and have been waiting on you to come grace us with your presence. The manager comes takes one steak off and makes excuses for our server because she is new! I'm sorry we should suffer because she's new??? Train more thorough because that excuse was ridiculous!!!! I'm not paying $30 a person for the worst dinning experience! Not once was the apology from manager genuine or was she concerned if we would be returning. She was very unprofessional and I've decided to write this in hopes a GM reads this since everytime I've called I've been unable to seem to reach them! Im here to tell you we will not be returning ever! And we've warned off friends who ask for a recommendation in Southlands area!!!! Terrible experience!

Sorry they take reservations but their Web site says nothing and Yelp said no. Place just seems a bit disorganized, ordered onion rings they bring ranch dressing but not ketchup. Ordered ribeye steak it was OK but just that. My broccoli was cold not warm but cold as in was put in the fridge cold. Squash casserole was warm not hot and bland. Overall just not great. We were celebrating my birthday but it was just not that great. My wife and daughter got fries with their meals and the fries were soggy. It seems they fry them once vs the twice that most places do. I used a gift card and still have a balance my daughter said her burger was good and most people seem to mention burgers.

Went there for dinner with my Husband last night. Hostess seated us and told us our server would be right with us. We sat there for 20+ minutes and were never greeted. Multiple servers and even the hostess walked past our table seeing us sitting there with our menus down no drinks etc. No one bothered to ask us if anyone had been over to help us. We would understand if it was busy but there were only about 5 tables seated in the restaurant. We ended up walking out and going to Bad Daddy's where we had great food and service. We won't be going to Teds Montana Grill again.

This place was great both times I have gone. The first was with my friend who has three allergies (gluten, soy, and dairy) and the second withy friend who has been in the serving field for over 10years. They did a great job being attentive and making sure that everyone was satisfied with each component of the meal. Sara was our server both times and I was impressed! She is great if you need someone patient but kind and attentive to needs. The food is outstanding. I had the No11 burger that was great but I needed extra horseradish sauce to get that "bite" and both the appetizer and desert were amazing. We got the house chip and the Kalua brownie. I also have had the huckleberry margarita twice now and both times it was worth the price. Finally, my friend spilled her drink and they used paper tole to clean it up which was kind of awkward and really needed a mop. That's my only suggestion for safety and guest comfort to avoid a sticky floor.

Teds isn't anything too special. The food is good, the staff is nice, but the portions have really gone down. I pay 10$ for chicken tenders for my son, and he gets 3 small tenders and what looks like a handful of fries. Same with my burger. I pay money and think I'm getting a burger that is big, along with a plate topped with fries and onion rings. Now I go and get a small burger and about 15 fries and 3 onion rings. The food here is good, so it still gets 3 stars.

Lindy S.
The food is good. When they have it. Twice we have been here and they have been out of Prime Rib. Once on a Friday evening, once on a Saturday afternoon. When Prime Rib is only sold Fri-Sun, you'd think they would have plenty in the oven on a constant rotation. Tonight, not only were they out of the Prime Rib, they were also out of Pot Roast, Cranberry Chicken, Baked Potatoes, Clam Chowder and Chocolate Chip Cookies. Im not sure we'll be back after tonight. The service was acceptable, but the unpredictably of their menu takes a lot of the pleasure out of spending an evening at one of the 'finer dining' establishments in the area. When bringing guests from out of town, I'd recommend looking at any of the other restaurants in the Southlands area. There isn't much worse than promising your father Prime Rib and then having to watch him eat fish.

This is one of our new favorite spots. Very affordable for the food they offer. I really feel awful because I forgot our waitress name, but she was from Australia if im not mistaken. She was great !! We got the bison nachos, and I was nervous to try bison that it might have that "game" flavor. It was great! The Wine selection is delicious, always go with the malbec. Beer selection is a little weak. My steak, mashed potatoes, broccoli was fantastic. I ordered a cookie and ice cream on a previous visit, and I was a little upset that the cookie was hard, usually expect a warm cookie with ice cream but that's ok. Everything was great, maybe our new Friday night spot! Thank you !!

Went here on Monday night with my girlfriend and her 2 boys. It wasn't very busy and we were able to get a place right away. Food was excellent and everyone finished there plate and no leftovers to take with us. Based on the food the rating should be a 4/5, but the service was a little lackluster. My girlfriend hadn't even finished her entree and the server dropped the check. Felt a little rushed when there was no need. We couldn't tell if she was new or just not engaging. The other reason for 3 stars is one of the boys left his wallet and we didn't realize until we got home (about 10 minutes). I called the restaurant and the host told me nothing has been found. I asked if she could look in the booth real quick and she said there were customers right now and they would look at the end of the night and call us back. I decided to go up to the restaurant and ask the people in the booth myself. They were very accommodating and of course the wallet was sitting right there. I would definitely recommend this place for the food, but just give a "eh" on the service.

Jessica J.
Still a fan of Ted's. Yes, it is on the smaller side, but it has a nice upscale casual feel (if that makes any sense). We always get a booth and we have never had bad service. I have had everything from bison burgers, to cowboy ribeye (of the cow variety) to chicken. It is all good! I love the fresh homemade pickles they give us to start. Plus they have great mixed drinks (margarita is the best, they use fresh lime juice). Also, the chips and dip should not be missed. Fresh cut chips and creamy thick homemade ranch onion dip - yum!!! It is always a winner! I'll be back.
Went to to Ted's last night after a recommendation from a friend. Found the place was in a good location and pleasing to the eye. Things went down hill slowly from there. The place was not very busy on this Thursday night and staffing didn't seem to be an issue. 1) Our waiter was slow to get our order just for drinks....plus one lime for a large bottle of San Pellagrino??? really? Plus it was 5.95, come on its fizzy water, not a brewed beer. 2) A $17.00 Bison burger and fries was nothing better than the 9.00 bar burger and fries I shared with my husband last weekend. This is basically over priced bar food in a nicer bar. NOT WORTH THE MONEY. 3) When one of your main menu items is burgers and fries as a waiter/waitress wouldn't you ask if condiments are needed at the time of ordering? That way you can be prepared by having such condiments on the table when the meal arrived. He asked after our burgers arrived if we wanted anything. Then proceeded to wait on other tables and come back later with condiments for our burgers. With this poor experience including, overpriced bar food, over priced water and poor service, we will not be back. The atmosphere is not enough to make this place even a second chance kind of place.

Wow. Overrated. Bad quality control. Terrible bread that literally falls apart. Squash Caseerole was just ok, very dry. All my food the filet, brocoli and casserole were just room temp. The brocoli minus the temp was very good. My filet was just ok. About as good as Texas Road House. My husbands Bison Ribeye had good flavor, but just ok. The dessert a fudge brownie came out cold hard as a rock with unmelted fudge we could not pour out on to the dessert. We sent it back. We will never go back for dinner, but may try the burgers foe lunch.

Managers Justin (day) and John (evening)could not have made my husband and me feel more welcome nor more appreciated than we did tonight at Ted's Montana Grill in Southlands. Phenomenal food, with our favorite Buffalo prepared exactly the way we like it, and a wonderful large crab cake appetizer for our celebration of my husband's retirement were such a treat! The sides...garlic mashed potatoes, grilled asparagus and complimentary fresh refrigerator pickles were out of this world! Our waitress, Daniela, was always right on it when we needed anything, and gave superb service all night long. I recommend that everyone to go there to celebrate anything...even an evening out for no reason! It's so well worth the prices and quality of the fantastic food. Call first or go early and your wait might be a lot less. We had no wait at all at 5:30 p.m. THANK YOU to Justin, John and Daniela for making our celebration one we will never forget! We'll definitely be back soon. Most sincerely, Mary (Candy) and John

Teds burgers were great. Perfectky cooked on a toasty roll. I ordered the #11. It had horseradish aioli and horseradish cheese topped with buffalo pot roast. It comes with a side of fries that were fresh cut. I sat at the bar and was delighted by the freindly and fast servce and enjoyed the open kitchen where we watched everyones food made to order. On thing I noticed was that everyone who worked there was watching each other making sure all the food and drinks xame out right. No short cuts here. Price was a little high. $17 burgers and $5.5 micro brews. This was ok due high quality of the fare. I have spent $14 on a crap burger. A happy hour would be nice. All and all Teds at the southlands is were to go if you want great traditional American fair.
(5)Fierberg J.
Valentine's lunch...I have never had such bad food! The ribeye was flavorful but all the sides were flavorless and very disappointing. I highly suggest going to a real steak house and avoiding this one.
(1)Jason J.
It's been 3 years so feels like time to update my review. Ted's is still spectacular. The burger was cooked exactly right and was both juicy and well-done, which it seems no one else can ever actually do Bacon was thick and crispy and the fries were almost perfect, too (could have used a little bit of seasoning). Service was good as always, and even though the prices are high, they're no higher than OC just down the row.
(5)Amie B.
The 3 stars are for the service. Food is quite good. Service was just so-so. Our waiter was nice but absent most of the night. Others brought us our food & had to wait to have water glass refilled. Will we be back to this location? Probably not.
(3)David C.
We come to this Ted's quite a bit so I don' t like writing this review but I feel I need to. We took the time to make reservations for this evening but when we got here it took 25 minutes after our reservation time to get seated at a very cramped table. I hope the food and service is better than the wait time and table.
(2)Matthew M.
So delicious. My favorite of all the Ted's locations. Food is always cooked to perfection and the service is top notch. I recommend getting a booth, you'll feel like you're alone in the restaurant which makes for a great date night. The buffalo burgers are devine and the 50/50 fries and onion rings are delicious.
(5)Steven C.
Yay! I'm a fan. The left side of brain told us to try something totally different and we were glad to step into this place. It was start of busy night and put our names on the wait list and sat at the bar. The bartenders were friendly and made us feel like we been coming her for years. Well, the truth was that it was our very 1st time. We have been coming to this area ever since it opened and was never compelled to visit this place. Well, we thought it was up scale steak place and we are not really into that too often. While sitting at the bar, we could see the cooks working on burgers. they just scoop out the ground beef, weigh it and make a pattie and season and put in on the grill and put a cover.. appeared they were selling lot of burgers.. We sat down on the booth.. the service was immaculate, atmosphere was great, food was good. I had bison meatloaf and .. it was first time i think.. and was so so.. kinda on dry side.. and meat was very soft.. no texture feeling.. the sides were good.. the pickles that was served at the beginning was interesting.. i should went for the burger.. oh well.. there is always next time! * its always fishy to find 5 star review from a yelper with only one review.
(4)Julie W.
I visited last night and enjoyed my evening and the staff. They were eager to please and genuinely friendly. The only drawback is their restroom. It was very cold, the water was very cold and they have the most primative paper towel dispenser available; hand crank. Surprisingly cheap amenities for the type of restaurant.
(3)Joy H.
Go here if you're prepared to spend $15 for a good hamburger. Do NOT bother if you have to get anything off the children's menu. My 8 year old could barely stomach the "mac n cheese" which was overcooked elbow macaroni with runny nacho cheese squeezed on top. It was disgusting. Our waitress was super sweet and did what she could to accommodate. She took that meal off our bill. My son's "grilled cheese" was pitiful as well. One thin slice of processed cheese between 2 thick dried out pieces of bread. I won't ever take the kids back there.
(2)Brian B.
Dropped in to have a quick burger and was pretty impressed with everything except the price/quality ratio. I had the knife and fork chili cheese burger, and not only was the concept great, but it looked really appetizing when it arrived. One SUPER nice touch about Ted's is that they serve pickles as pre-meal snack instead of bread... that was a super enjoyable way to munch and chat without stuffing my face full of carbs. Good call! The burger itself was good, but cooked (if I can use that word) WAY too rare -- I ordered medium rare and this sucker was cold and pretty much raw inside. However, I actually prefer rare vs. overcooked, so I didn't send it back. That was the only knock on the place except for the price of the burger: $15. I will be totally honest, the price:value ratio is very important for me at a restaurant -- I'm not a cheapskate (I don't mind paying quite a bit for a great meal), but I'm not the kind of guy that enjoys paying $4/gallon for gas when I can drive 500 feet up the road and buy it for $3/gallon. Same with burgers -- if you're serving up a $15 burger, it better be spot-on otherwise, I can roll a half mile up the street and get something similar for $8. The Ted's burger I had wasn't a $15 burger, but it was close enough that I still had a really enjoyable meal. Will I give Ted's another shot -- absolutely! The menu is creative, and the rest of my experience was top notch.

Our go to place for burgers. Always good service and happy people
(4)Megan B.
I have been to many Ted's locations over the years. I was sad when they stopped offering the bread and not a fan of the cucumbers they bring instead. They discontinued the chicken I used to get but I tried the cranberry chicken and it was great. My daughter loves the bison burgers. We went last night and had some miscommunication with the waitress. We thought she was going to box our food but she tossed it instead. An honest mistake. She got the manger and he happily replaced our food. The service is always good and I am always happy with my food. The portions are a good size.
(4)Lauren B.
This place is always buzzing. The wait staff, bartenders, and cooks make it a fun, animated place. If you'd like to have a really fun time, sit at the bar near the grill and watch how everything works. The food is fresh and delicious and prepared perfectly! The manager, Sean, is a great guy who loves his customers and his job. He'll give you a tour of the kitchen anytime! Check it out.
(4)F U.
My girlfriend and myself love Ted's. We've eaten at a few of them around town,but this location is our favorite. I ordered the end cut prime rib, and you get a Friggin roast!!! My girlfriend ordered the jalapeno bison burger. Everything was awesome. Love the pickled cucumbers. Zach our waiter is all over it even when it was busy. A couple of giant lemon drop martinis and it's a trip to Ted's.
(4)Shannon D.
Consistent! Like the salads and the bison steaks. Great service and a free birthday dessert for the big guy.
(4)Liz C.
I love this place!!! I have been to a lot of the other locations and this one is my favorite. The Burger I ordered was amazing. Our waitress was very very nice. When the check came I noticed she forgot to add my drink on the check, I pointed this out to her and she told me it's okay but I insisted she add it so I could pay for it. There isn't anything I could change about this location! Must get the Bison burger. SO SO good!!!!
(5)Neil S.
We've eaten her a few times and it's never been quite right. Tonight it ALMOST was. Always order the bison it's really great. Zach our waiter was great. The appetizer menu needs updating. Not a lot to chose from. I'd eat here again, but ONLY ORDER THE BISON!
(4)Al L.
GREAT Bison fillet & Del Monico for lunch! Broccoli was delicious too! Mandy was attentive and cheerful. We'll definitely return for special occasions!
(5)Mari C.
I am a fan of this place. I feel like this is where I can go if I want a good home-cooked meal or a nice bison burger. I like that their kids meals are pretty awesome too. My kids love to eat here because of the nice variety and portions they have... not too much but not too little either. Just right, as Goldie Locks says. The service here has always been great. Thanks Ted's for hiring a pretty cool staff!

Yum!

This place was one bad restaurant cliche after another. Employees milling around the host stand the whole time, inattentive bartender on Sunday night (it was slow), other customers being ignored, my order was wrong, my friend's order was wrong, a to go customer had a wrong order and ended up waiting for more than 15 minutes, dirty plates and empty bottles in front of us all night (despite more than 6 staff including the manager on duty standing around the host area all night, which was 8 feet from us.) I only came here because it was close to the hotel we stayed at near the airport. I certainly won't be coming back here ever again. I suppose that the sheer amount of transient customers who come through due to the proximity of the airport is how this atrocious service is allowed to continue. I read the name of the proprietor on the front door was Monica. If you are reading this, you should fire everyone who worked on 4/21/13. As for the food, it was just ok. The "filet" on the menu was clearly a flat iron cut (teres major). But I was suspect about the price ($22) for a filet to begin with. It tasted bland, was overcooked, and had the texture of a pounded cube steak. I guess the worst part is that there are only chain restaurants in the area, and this one clearly had the best reviews. So I can't imagine that there's anything better, which sucks if actually have to eat.

Have been there several times now and did not find a burger which didnt hit the spot. Interestingly enough we always have great waiters (not pretending and seriously taking care of business) no matter if it's packed or not - very knowledgable and thoughtful. E.g. yesterday I order my burger (Montana breakfast burger) and asked to have it cut in half ... no big deal but a different waiter served it and it was uncut ... our waiter showed up later and excused the situation (at that time I've done it myself) where in other places it would not be noticed at all... We even had fish dishes here and they were pretty good - I know you dont go to a meat place eating fish but we tried it and it was delicious. The only thing on the menu I didn't really like that much so far are the Bison Nachos - kinda weak in flavor and presentation - it was missing guacamole, real amounts of Bison meat and sauce and had nearly no cheese on it - but I have to say that our waiter noticed it and brought more chili for the bottom nachos ... Again I like the ambiente and burgers, the only thing I wish that they had a paper wrap 1/2 around the burger to keep everything under control (like Red Robin has...) but otherwise it's a great spot and great interior - I really like to come here even no lunch menu invites you and therefor I prefer coming for dinner. Still have not been through all burgers but the kitchen sink is still my favorite!
(5)Holly J.
Great customer service, waitress was friendly and checked on us regularly, manager even came by and checked on us as well. Burgers were tasty and came out very quick. Definitely recommended!
(4)Angie B.
okay so I've been here a few times. I won't go back. The first time the service was slow and the staff not very knowledgeable. The 2nd time I came in with a friend and we sat at the bar. It was like a ghost town. After 15 minutes and no one had even said hello to us we left and went across the street to McCabes. This last time I went with my family and the hostess had us following her all over the place. She seems pretty scattered. Then the server was really nervous like she hadn't been there very long and was unsure of herself. All in all this last time was just ok. The food was terrific but due to service every time, i'll pass.

Usually one of my favorite go to places! Went there Sunday night and was VERY dissapointed in my service, the lack of effort & the quality of my Bison Burger (which Is usually rt on the money) not at all the case Sunday night! My same server that I've had the last 4-5 visits here, (Rachel) was training a new gi and was obviously put out by this and it showed! Eye rolling and very unapologetic when the food took 40+ minutes to arrive and we asked for refills. You'd think that a $95 tab and pretty usual $25 tip would help ease her training pain from us ( especially since she had a trainee helper..?) not the case. Very sad since in the past I've called the locations GM on my 1st visit there to send such high regards on how great her level of service was! That has now been forever ruined. Food came out, already had a bad taste in my mouth, well the entree tastes was even worse to wash it down!! Doubt I'll ever return to a Teds MG after this experience. Poor poor efforts on their part.. Would rather give my biz to Salt Grass or Outback which is sad, but true!

I've had several business lunch's here at Ted's, food is always good and the service isn't bad either but paying $16 for the cheese burger I like is always hard to swallow.

2nd time dining at Ted Montana Grill and both times disgusting. The decor, the convenient location and the server who waited on us were great. So how do you mess up a $15 Steak Salad? Overcooked, tough strips of steak (asked for med rare) and the crispy onion straws on top of the salad honestly tasted like rubber bands, barely any dressing & wilted lettuce! The waiter saw me taking the onion straws off and asked if they were ok. I told him they were old & he brought back more of the same, except.... they first dumped them in hot grease before bringing them out to me. Not only were they old, but now they were clearly over-fried & greasy..yuck. Husband got the Buffalo Bison meatloaf which was dry & the veggies in the side dish looked & tasted like something that had been sitting in a buffet style restaurant for days (crusted over top & mushy under that crusted top.) Kids got burgers and the fries tasted like they were reheated. Med-rare burgers were well done & dry. If you want mustard or ketsup, you'd better ask for them well ahead of receiving your order! I really wanted to like this place, but was disgusted both times. McDonalds honestly would have been a better choice!

Very nice customer service - waitress was very knowledgeable. Great menu. Food tasted pretty good. Also had a beer there too. I would suggest checking this place out.

Ate here for the first time, for lunch, and all I can say is WOW! Figured it was going to be your usual bar and grill table fare and it was that, but on a much higher level. Their menu listed at least a couple of dozen burger (your choice of beef, chicken or bison) choices and a variety of salads and entree's. There was a good variety. (Sorry I can't expound because I was too focused on the great variety of burgers they had.) I settled for the "Kitchen Sink" burger....bacon, fried egg, ham, cheese, beef patty and the usual garnishments on the side. I am pretty sure I left something out. Anyway, it came and it was huge! I could barely wrap my mouth around it to take a bite, but when I did it was worth it. Juicy and full of flavor. Their fries were very good, thin and crispy with just the right amount of seasoning. It was also the first time I have ever been served home-made dill pickle slices for pre-meal gnoshing...very good. Two BIG thumbs up!

I have to be perfectly honest - I didn't have exceedingly high expectations for Ted's. Dunno why. I just naturally associated it with other chain restaurants which were decidedly mediocre. However, our dining experience was a good one, so color me surprised. I had a bison burger with mushrooms, caramelized onions and Monterey Jack cheese on a wheat bun and a baked sweet potato while my husband had the bison meatloaf. The burger and the meatloaf had a very robust, savory meaty flavor. The meatloaf was a bit sweeter because of the glaze they topped it with. The squash casserole that came as the side with the meatloaf was pretty good. It was nicely cooked, and the breadcrumb topping was a nice touch. Best of all, nothing was overly salty. Oh, and they have cool straws made from recycled paper. Why don't more restaurants have these? Our server was super chipper, and at the end of the meal, I told my husbad, "She reminds me of someone, but I can't put my finger on it..." "Jaime Pressly," he said. "THAT'S IT!" I said, probably a little too loudly since my exclamation made the bar patrons glance back at our booth. To summarize, a good meal and a celebrity look-a-like waitress.

If you're in the mood for a good bison burger, head to Ted's. I also love the simple wedge salad.

We went here on New Year's Eve 2011 at about 7pm and even without a reservation, we were seated within 15 mins (party of two). The hostess was courteous and friendly, as was the waitress. Ambient noise was at a reasonable level, and our booth was cozy and clean. We had the bison short ribs (special of the night) and bison meatloaf. Both dishes were excellent; it was my first time trying bison and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Unfortunately, our drinks arrived after our meal (including water); however in the defense of our waitress, our food arrived at our table no more than five minutes after we ordered. For as busy as the place was (and considering it was New Year's Eve), I did not expect such a quick turnaround on our food. Waitress was very attentive without being intrusive. While normally not a dessert person, we shared the apple crisp with ice cream. The waitress (who I wish I could remember her name) advised that it was a dessert that could be shared and she was correct. A family of four could've shared that dessert and be satisfied. It too, was delicious. The bill was very reasonable, and they gave us a 15% military discount. We did not know they offered a military discount, and while I did not present my retired military ID, I am guessing because I used an USAA debit card, they correctly assumed I was affiliated with the military. I recommend this restaurant at this location and will definitely return. Would give 4.5 stars, if I could.

The service here is hit or miss. For those who don't know, patrons usually get a free, little bowl of cucumbers as they sit down. However, every so often, the waitress will say they are bringing cucumbers and it comes with the entrees or never at all. This place is normally really awesome as far as the food goes (that's why the 3 stars instead of 1). I always order a medium rare prime rib here. However, the last time I went here (approximately a year ago), the prime rib was overcooked (dry and the color was past the usual red center). If I have to pay $21 for a 12oz prime rib, I would expect it to at least be within the rare to well done temperature range every time, not overcooked. I have found another place that cooks medium rare prime rib properly, so I will be going there now. However, going to that place reminded me of Ted's, so I decided to post a review here now.
(3)Thomas P.
Ok, so the place is good, the food is consistent (as with most chains) but the service is hit or miss. That is a small price to pay for a bison steak though. I will continue to come back to this Ted's. The dining room and bar are clean, food is delivered quickly, and it won't cost you an arm and a leg. Try this place next time you are out. BEWARE THE WAIT TIMES on Fridays and Saturdays as this place fills up fast!
(4)Julie M.
Had great service. The ambiance and decor is nice but a little loud. The homemade sweet dill pickles they served were too salty for me but others in my party loved them. The onion rings are the best I have ever had. The perfect ratio of crispy crust to nice thick onion slice and served with a creamy horseradish sauce. The ribeye I had was cooked to perfection and the leftover horseradish sauce was yummy on it, too! The grilled asparagus had a funky taste (kind of like kerosene smells) so I didn't eat too much of that, but it didn't ruin the meal. I could see trying to work my way through the extensive list of burgers if I lived in the area.
(4)Jon F.
I Love this place!!! Coming from Scottsdale, I've been on the search for a good beer & burger joint. Wife's and my expectations were met on all levels from being greeted at the door to excellent wait staff and perfectly seasoned and cooked entrees!
(5)Brian M.
First time to Ted's and will definitely be back. Food was great and everything cooked perfectly. Really enjoyed the atmosphere, the location and the food. The service was a little iffy while the waitress flirted with a group of men but otherwise everything was excellent. Filet was perfect and was very reasonably priced for similar quality at other locations. Strongly recommend this location.
(4)Road W.
Wow - disappointing. Burger was over cooked. Onion rings were over cooked, service lacked. Unfortunately the place was very slow - thought we would have been "over served". Stopped by due to yelp, next time will do Steak & Shake.
(1)Tasha D.
I got food poisoning after eating a bison burger here, so it ruined what was otherwise a perfectly nice dining experience.
(1)Jay M.
I have visited regularly for several years now. I've come to know the staff and really enjoy the dining experience! If it's your first visit, expect real staff members. Friendly folks who are there with the goal of really making the experience an enjoyable one! On top of that, you'll enjoy a wide variety of comfort food, steaks, burgers and much more! Enjoying dinner seated or at the bar is a great experience. Give it a try!
(5)Marcus R.
I have been here a few times. They are pretty typical with there service. Though one man we were with said no he hadn't been there before when asked by our waitress. This was a mistake because she went on a speech for what seemed like ten minutes about the restaurant, specials and such. It became almost amusing. Server was almost trying to hard that she messed up our drink order. Brought one man water instead of tea. Not a big deal. So I love their house sour pickles. Have had many different burgers they are all good. Though I have yet to have one come out medium when ordered that way. I tried the meatloaf on my last visit, thinking it would be quite a helping of food based off of others restaurants I have tried it out. It came out with just two little slivers and about a tbsp of gravy on it. Not very impressed for a place who has lots of good ole home cooking meals. The onion rings for an app are ok. They breading is more homestyle than your typical ones if you like that. Though I don't think you get much of the salt and pepper flavor they claim to be. I think if you have been to one Ted's you've seen them all.
(3)Brandon W.
I was pleasantly surprised with Ted's. The selection of food is awesome, the prices are very reasonable (i.e. I thought this place was super-expensive for some reason) and it's great for kids. We went early on a Friday and found it almost deserted which was great for two small kids. They don't give crayons to kids...they give them some bendy toys that really kept the imagination of my 2.5 and 5 year-olds. Something crayons haven't done in years. I will certainly be back and can't wait to try more of the steak. It was quite good.

I was first introduced to Ted's Montana Grill in Columbus, OH. I've been there numerous occasions and have even taken my parents there when they've come out for visits. I love bison meat. It's a bit leaner than beef, which I enjoy. Their burgers are huge though! I've had the avocado bison burger and george's cadillac (with BBQ sauce, I think). I think the plain burgers are pretty darn good too. They all come with a side of hand-cut fries. Mmmm... yum! Their bison chili is delish too. Sounds like a perfect meal for a cold Denver day like today (34º this morning). Last time we went, we ate at the bar. It was neat watching them prepare all of the food in the open kitchen. I had a bowl of chili and a salad. I can't remember the type of salad, but it had cucumbers, tomatoes, some sort of meat (I want to say salami), and a vinaigrette dressing. There were other toppings too, but I just can't remember it. I loved it though! I would definitely order it again. Now I'm craving a bison burger. And the only way to cure a bison burger craving is to eat at Ted's.
(4)Terry T.
We usually dine at the bar on Friday nights. The food is consistently good and we are always taken excellent care of by Wade and Ashley. Managers Jay and Jade are always friendly and make us feel welcome. A very friendly restaurant with excellent food and service! Jon, Leroy, and the rest of the wait staff are all very friendly. We do miss Scott and Sam who always took excellent care of us while they worked behind the bar.
(5)Michelle B.
Ahhh. The memories of Colorado. . . We had dinner here after a hard day of training (Darn you) and I can sure say it's well worth it. Walking in felt a replay of Disney's Story Teller's Cafe and a mix of Claim Jumpers. The atmosphere was nice and cozy. Music was playing - can't remember what was on - but I'm glad it wasn't any of that yeehaw giddie up stuff that I've been listening to on the way there. The best thing was that I was able to hear the people in front of me. Kinda hard for me to ignore folks nowadays. I had Salmon, and my colleague had Bison. I had a taste of it (not my first time) but it was pretty good. A little on the gamey side, but that was totally expected. Cool place for dinner and to borrow an umbrella when it starts to pour right when you walk out the door.
(4)Robin J.
Not so much. I didn't really enjoy anything that I had. The service wasn't great and the food was average chain food at best.
(2)John A.
I went to Ted's Montana Grill for the third time last night. The first two times I had prime rib but my wife convinced me to try one of their burgers this time around. We started off with crab cake which was delicious although a little expensive. I ordered the beef America's Cup burger which has bacon, American cheese, grilled onions, and grilled mushrooms on it. The waitress asked how I wanted it cooked. My wife and I both ordered medium and the waitress wanted to make sure we were okay with some pink. The burgers arrived after what seemed like a lengthy period of time, probably about 15 minutes. Both of our burgers were well-done. The biggest problem was the bun. Both of our buns were soaked on the bottom. I took a bite and the bottom half of the bun was burned on top and dripping wet on the bottom. It was a horrible combination. We agreed that Five Guys is more consistent with their burgers and also about 30% of the cost of going to Ted's. I won't be getting another burger at Ted's.
(2)Kevin K.
We love this place! The service is always great! It is clear that TMG only hires people with great attitudes. We love their hamburgers! The hamburgers? Yes, you've got to check them out. Bison or beef - no matter. They have a special technique on cooking hamburgers. Everything else is good too. Overall, it's the great service that we really appreciate.
(4)Lara M.
So good. Chips and dips are amazing. Steaks are the best, steak salad is great as are the buffalo burgers. Can't wait to go back!!
(5)Ramon H.
Great burgers... A little pricey.
(4)Michael B.
My Wife and I ate at Ted's Montana Grill in Denver on Larimer and it was great, thanks Dane for a terrific experience. We were hoping for a Ted' Montana Grill closer to Parker and found one in Aurora at Southlands. We love this place! Our waitress at Southlands was Cathee and her assistant in training Tony were excellent. We loved their service, their kindness and how well we were taken care of. We will definitely go back and ask for Cathee, what an outstanding experience. Ted's Montana Grill at Southlands will be our Friday night dinner spot for sure.
(5)Cass D.
I've been to this location twice, once to another location. Never super busy, didn't have to wait. I had a group lunch there of about 20 people and the staff handled it very well. The service is good, and the food is great. Little pricey, good date place. It's nice to see a place doing things 'naturally' right down to the straws.
(5)Casey T.
Food is awesome service is even better, we went there for our 1 year anniversary and we had Christopher as our server, he was on top of things and was sweet and funny!! For sure going back!!
(5)Tom N.
First experience with Ted's was this year in downtown Atlanta and I really enjoyed the food. Was happy to see this location open up near the house and stopped by for dinner with some friends. Ted's serves comfort food, hamburgers, meatloaf, salmon, chicken noodle soup. Nothing too fancy. They're known for their hamburgers and bison-burgers. They are really good, and I'd stick with those.
(4)Steve H.
This was the first time I had ever had a Bison steak and I have to say it was pretty good. We had a great waiter and the other staff was friendly. They have a great selection of items and were willing to help out my GF with her meal restrictions, they also have a gluten free menu. This place can get a little cold during the winter for some reason (stay away from the windows) and the floor is a death trap when its wet. Besides those last items it was a great night out.
(4)Cassandra K.
I have been to this Ted's twice....the first time was NOT a good food experience. I absolutely love good food and Ted's didn't deliver. the service was horrible and the food just as bad....I even had to send my steak back.....it was awful. However, given that it had only opened the month before, I thought I had better try again after it had been opened awhile. My hubby and I hit it again a month ago....for a late lunch before a movie. I ordered the blue cheese something bison burger....can't remember the exact name. It was awesome!! It was so darned juicy and delicious! I had trouble keeping the juicy thing together and I ate every damned bite! It was truly a sight to behold really....I am not a big girl and the burger was definitely too large for me! My hubby didn't even finish HIS :-) I had the fresh squeezed lemonade too and it was awesome! Yes, I can eat....and eat....especially when the food is superior. It rather disappointed me the first time around but the second time was it's saving grace. :-) We will have to go again and eat while we watch the kids skate at the ice rink this Xmas :-)

Love teds. the burgers are great and the trout is awesome.

Located in a very confusing shopping center, the address 6105 really doesn't help since most storefronts don't post their address. I just parked and looked for one of those Directory displays you see in every mall. None to be found in a 3 block walk. I finally asked somebody who appeared to know the area and she kindly pointed me in the right direction. I will say Denver residents are very friendly. A big establishment that looks really nice inside. Leather booths and chairs. Cloth napkins. The whole nine yards. A friendly staff greeting at the door. I got there between lunch and dinner, so it wasn't crowded at all. I was seated immediately. Ordered the Red Rock burger medium with a side caeser salad. The menu says it's an "eggless" dressing and that alarmed me a bit, but I can go with it. When the salad comes out, it's not what I expected. First, the plate was very warm. Right out of the dishwasher warm. Not a good start. The dressing is homemade, but it was just olive oil, lemon, and what appeared to be some parm cheese. There was no anchovy to this dressing. Also, the croutons are the cheapest croutons you can buy on the shelf at the local market. There was also no fresh grated parm on top. It was a disaster. I should have stopped my order and walked out, but I figured let's give this place a second chance with the burger. I asked for it medium which is pink in the middle. The burger came out well done. I called over a manager and said I would just like to walk out and I told him why and he said sorry and I left. I would have spent about $20 in this place for a burger and salad and it was a horrible experience. I went across the street to McCabes and got a decent bar burger with caeser salad for less then $8.
(1)Suzanne P.
A bit pricey. I love Bison and so it was good for that. The service was slow even though there were like 5 tables of 2 concurrent customers.
(3)melissa b.
this was the first place i went to in denver. zOMG! sooooo delicious! i had the bison burger, my first time having bison and it was absolutely delicious. of course it was monstrously huge, but i managed.... half. lol
(5)Kelly M.
You know why Ted's Montana Grill gets such high marks on Yelp? Its because it really is that good. The restaurants are always clean, the service is always on point and the food is outstanding. When I crave a hamburger (or bison burger) I head to Ted's. The food is fresh and made to order. They really try to be eco-consicence too. I love their pickles! Everything is just so damn good and perfectly cooked. You won't be disappointed by eating at Ted's only impressed!
(5)Pete U.
I went to Ted's with a big group of people. They were very accomidating for a group our size (over 10). The service was a bit slow but the food was very good. I ordered the Beef Ribeye, my favorite steak, and it was one of the best I've had in a restaraunt. Cooked perfectly to order. Juicy, mmmm, good! The sides were good as well. Everyone in our group was pleased with what they ordered. I would definately come back again.
(4)Jenniferoxanne H.
Again late checking in...obviously closed, AMAZING FOOD!
(4)Sandi D.
We're at the Ted's ALL THE TIME. We're certainly not Chain Restaurant people, but we're in Southlands Mall daily, and there are few food choices. So when the movie lets out, and you're faced with either PF Chang's, Red Lobster or Ted's....well, Ted's it is. The burgers are terrific, Rib Eye has 3 oz of grizzle and fat, but other then that...Ok...I guess. Onion Rings are the worst...breaded not beer battered Vegies are of the frozen variety. So, why the 4 stars....it's local, it's not terribly expensive, and they'll make a 1/2 bison, 1/2 beef burger, just the way I like it. Black and Blue
(4)Maria H.
It was my first time going there. I was really hoping that it was going to be really tasty. It was a very busy night. My fiance told me that it was really good. So we get in my fiance orders a burger and I order the bbq chicken salad. My salad came out and I dig through my salad and take a couple bites. I kept feeling like it was strange because I did not taste any chicken in my salad. I ask my fiance, confused if the bbq chicken salad was just a name and it did not contain chicken salad. He said that it should have chicken in there. The salad was 12 dollars of course. So the server came by and I had asked him if there was supposed to be chicken salad in there and he said ya. Oh ya it is stripped in there and pointed to my plate and said I see some chicken right there. And he asked if I wanted some more chicken salad. I said yes sure... He left and I looked in my plate and thought to myself am I blind because I do not see any chicken. He brought my bbq chicken and all I could smell was bbq like that smell was not there before. I was very very disappointed. Not with my salad that had no chicken, but with the server that lied to my face and made me feel really dumb. I had no more appetite and packed my salad to go. My fiance did not finish his burger and usually he eats everything off his plate, but his burger bun was very soggy and not tasty at all. We will not go here anymore.
(1)Chris E.
Average food, a little overpriced and not so good service. What can you really expect from a chain restaurant like this though. We had a restaurant.com gift certificate so we thought we'd try it out. I had the buffalo burger and the wife had some sandwich that she didn't really care for. I would eat here again because with the coupon it makes it affordable but just make sure you choose wisely from the menu.
(3)Christina E.
Over the last few months the food quality has gone down hill. I love the ambiance but if your looking for melt in your mouth food I would recommend going elsewhere.
(3)Samantha T.
This place is AMAZING. Our server, Brent, was knowledgeable and incredibly helpful! Honestly, if you want to have a panty-dropping burger with top notch service, you should give this place a try, and request Brent! To sum it up, fantastic food, with even better service!
(5)Yoomi P.
Yummm their bison burgers are pretty good! :) We were here on a Friday night and the wait was kind of long. I think we waited about 45 minutes before we were seated? So I don't think I would come back on a Friday night unless we had a lotttttt of time to kill. The bison nachos were the perfect appetizer. I would definitely order it again! I had the Red Rock bison burger and it was pretty good.. but it wasn't flavorful enough for me.. I usually love savory burgers FULL of flavor where each bite makes me say "mmmmmmmm!" hahaha.. the Z-sauce in this burger is supposed to be sweet like jam?.. but I barely tasted it. I don't think I would order this burger again. I wouldn't mind coming back to Ted's.. but if I was craving a burger.. there are many more burger joints that come to mind first.. But the service was super great! The manager was walking around asking everyone how the food was etc etc.. and our server was super helpful and nice. :)
(3)Skylar R.
If I could give this review zero stars I would. My parents and I came in before going to a movie at Southlands, and from the server to the manager it was a horrific experience. Maybe we should have taken the empty restaurant at 630 on a Sunday as a sign... But we wanted steaks. Let's start with the fact our server brought drinks, took orders and then checked on us once and never came back. So our drinks our empty someone drops off salads and we have to ask them to refill our drinks... Again the restaurant is empty so where she kept going is beyond me. Our salads have barley any dressing my dad has to get up and chase around someone to get us more dressing ... Oh and he has to sit there wait for the dressing to bring it back???? Really? No customer service!!!! So we get our steaks, first bite ok server ask... Never comes back as I cut into it more I notice it is rare! We are talking mooing .... I wait for her to come back and only once we have all pilled meat one plate does she return. We tell her how awful it was and not properly cooked and she goes ok I'll tell a manager. Well flipping great! We've enjoyed none of our meals and have been waiting on you to come grace us with your presence. The manager comes takes one steak off and makes excuses for our server because she is new! I'm sorry we should suffer because she's new??? Train more thorough because that excuse was ridiculous!!!! I'm not paying $30 a person for the worst dinning experience! Not once was the apology from manager genuine or was she concerned if we would be returning. She was very unprofessional and I've decided to write this in hopes a GM reads this since everytime I've called I've been unable to seem to reach them! Im here to tell you we will not be returning ever! And we've warned off friends who ask for a recommendation in Southlands area!!!! Terrible experience!
(1)Fred F.
Sorry they take reservations but their Web site says nothing and Yelp said no. Place just seems a bit disorganized, ordered onion rings they bring ranch dressing but not ketchup. Ordered ribeye steak it was OK but just that. My broccoli was cold not warm but cold as in was put in the fridge cold. Squash casserole was warm not hot and bland. Overall just not great. We were celebrating my birthday but it was just not that great. My wife and daughter got fries with their meals and the fries were soggy. It seems they fry them once vs the twice that most places do. I used a gift card and still have a balance my daughter said her burger was good and most people seem to mention burgers.
(2)Julie G.
Went there for dinner with my Husband last night. Hostess seated us and told us our server would be right with us. We sat there for 20+ minutes and were never greeted. Multiple servers and even the hostess walked past our table seeing us sitting there with our menus down no drinks etc. No one bothered to ask us if anyone had been over to help us. We would understand if it was busy but there were only about 5 tables seated in the restaurant. We ended up walking out and going to Bad Daddy's where we had great food and service. We won't be going to Teds Montana Grill again.
(1)Shiloh C.
This place was great both times I have gone. The first was with my friend who has three allergies (gluten, soy, and dairy) and the second withy friend who has been in the serving field for over 10years. They did a great job being attentive and making sure that everyone was satisfied with each component of the meal. Sara was our server both times and I was impressed! She is great if you need someone patient but kind and attentive to needs. The food is outstanding. I had the No11 burger that was great but I needed extra horseradish sauce to get that "bite" and both the appetizer and desert were amazing. We got the house chip and the Kalua brownie. I also have had the huckleberry margarita twice now and both times it was worth the price. Finally, my friend spilled her drink and they used paper tole to clean it up which was kind of awkward and really needed a mop. That's my only suggestion for safety and guest comfort to avoid a sticky floor.
(5)Ryan S.
Teds isn't anything too special. The food is good, the staff is nice, but the portions have really gone down. I pay 10$ for chicken tenders for my son, and he gets 3 small tenders and what looks like a handful of fries. Same with my burger. I pay money and think I'm getting a burger that is big, along with a plate topped with fries and onion rings. Now I go and get a small burger and about 15 fries and 3 onion rings. The food here is good, so it still gets 3 stars.
(3)Lindy S.
The food is good. When they have it. Twice we have been here and they have been out of Prime Rib. Once on a Friday evening, once on a Saturday afternoon. When Prime Rib is only sold Fri-Sun, you'd think they would have plenty in the oven on a constant rotation. Tonight, not only were they out of the Prime Rib, they were also out of Pot Roast, Cranberry Chicken, Baked Potatoes, Clam Chowder and Chocolate Chip Cookies. Im not sure we'll be back after tonight. The service was acceptable, but the unpredictably of their menu takes a lot of the pleasure out of spending an evening at one of the 'finer dining' establishments in the area. When bringing guests from out of town, I'd recommend looking at any of the other restaurants in the Southlands area. There isn't much worse than promising your father Prime Rib and then having to watch him eat fish.
(1)Brooke B.
This is one of our new favorite spots. Very affordable for the food they offer. I really feel awful because I forgot our waitress name, but she was from Australia if im not mistaken. She was great !! We got the bison nachos, and I was nervous to try bison that it might have that "game" flavor. It was great! The Wine selection is delicious, always go with the malbec. Beer selection is a little weak. My steak, mashed potatoes, broccoli was fantastic. I ordered a cookie and ice cream on a previous visit, and I was a little upset that the cookie was hard, usually expect a warm cookie with ice cream but that's ok. Everything was great, maybe our new Friday night spot! Thank you !!
(5)Brian S.
Went here on Monday night with my girlfriend and her 2 boys. It wasn't very busy and we were able to get a place right away. Food was excellent and everyone finished there plate and no leftovers to take with us. Based on the food the rating should be a 4/5, but the service was a little lackluster. My girlfriend hadn't even finished her entree and the server dropped the check. Felt a little rushed when there was no need. We couldn't tell if she was new or just not engaging. The other reason for 3 stars is one of the boys left his wallet and we didn't realize until we got home (about 10 minutes). I called the restaurant and the host told me nothing has been found. I asked if she could look in the booth real quick and she said there were customers right now and they would look at the end of the night and call us back. I decided to go up to the restaurant and ask the people in the booth myself. They were very accommodating and of course the wallet was sitting right there. I would definitely recommend this place for the food, but just give a "eh" on the service.

Still a fan of Ted's. Yes, it is on the smaller side, but it has a nice upscale casual feel (if that makes any sense). We always get a booth and we have never had bad service. I have had everything from bison burgers, to cowboy ribeye (of the cow variety) to chicken. It is all good! I love the fresh homemade pickles they give us to start. Plus they have great mixed drinks (margarita is the best, they use fresh lime juice). Also, the chips and dip should not be missed. Fresh cut chips and creamy thick homemade ranch onion dip - yum!!! It is always a winner! I'll be back.

Went here with Hubs on Thursday July 4th 2013. Time was about 18:35hrs ish. Since it was 4th of July "Weekend", and after driving around and ALL the eatery in this part of town are closed, thankfully Ted's Montana Grill is open. Right after we enter this establishment, we choose to have the booth for our seats. Thankfully when we arrived its "before" the Dinner Peak Hours. Our server his name is Adam. The Menu seems simple and have a variety of food to choose. That evening, we ordered these following items : * Bison Nachos ($8.00) * Bison Meatloaf Sandwich ($11.00) * Salt and Pepper Trout ($16.00) Hubs opt to have coffee ($2.50) and fountain drinks ($2.79) aka COKE for his beverages while I opt for just water. At least our server offer refills for both the coffee and the fountain soda. The Bison Nachos was just A-OK. The Bison Nachos comes with Pepper Jack Cheese, Bison Chili, a "Dallop" of Sour Cream and fresh toppings such as Tomatoes Fresh Jalapenos and Green Scallions. I don't really fancy the "beans" in the Bison Chili Nachos, though I cannot deny those Nachos are indeed addictive. The Bison Meatloaf Sandwich with Fries were just A-OK. The Meatloaf Sandwich comes with "Thick-sliced" Bison Meatloaf, melted Monterey Jack Cheese and Grilled Onions. "Barbecue-y" for our taste bud. Sufficient for Hubs that evening. Though I cannot deny the portions were tiny for the price. I opt to have the Salt and Pepper Trout as my Main Entrée. It was just A-OK. At least the fish was cooked properly. The Salt and Pepper Trout was grilled in olive oil, lightly seasoned with fresh lemon and salt and pepper. It was topped with corn and tomato salsa. I also opt to have my main Entrée to be served with roasted asparagus and vine-ripened tomatoes. I ask for tartar sauce as well as fresh jalapeno on the side for my Dinner. It was an Adequate aka Sufficient Dinner to fill us up though I cannot deny with the smaller portions but NOT SO with the Pricing. *Sigh* The service was prompt and efficient. The food came out fast. Left this establishment at about 19:30hrs ish. Ted's Montana Grill SOUTHLANDS 6105 South Main Street, Suite 101 Aurora, CO 80015 Tel : (720)-870-4470 @145/2013

Went to to Ted's last night after a recommendation from a friend. Found the place was in a good location and pleasing to the eye. Things went down hill slowly from there. The place was not very busy on this Thursday night and staffing didn't seem to be an issue. 1) Our waiter was slow to get our order just for drinks....plus one lime for a large bottle of San Pellagrino??? really? Plus it was 5.95, come on its fizzy water, not a brewed beer. 2) A $17.00 Bison burger and fries was nothing better than the 9.00 bar burger and fries I shared with my husband last weekend. This is basically over priced bar food in a nicer bar. NOT WORTH THE MONEY. 3) When one of your main menu items is burgers and fries as a waiter/waitress wouldn't you ask if condiments are needed at the time of ordering? That way you can be prepared by having such condiments on the table when the meal arrived. He asked after our burgers arrived if we wanted anything. Then proceeded to wait on other tables and come back later with condiments for our burgers. With this poor experience including, overpriced bar food, over priced water and poor service, we will not be back. The atmosphere is not enough to make this place even a second chance kind of place.
