No Sweat Cafe: My local favorite
  • Satisfaction:
  • I walked in and felt at home. My girlfriend's deceased mothers picture is on the wall, over a booth, art from the my family decorates the interior. I was introduced to all the employees who are friends of the family.

    Okay, the service - excellent! My coffee cup never went cold or empty and the food came quick, despite the reputation of hour-long waits.

    Order the two dot burger! An excellent Angus burger loaded with the works!

    Coffeehouse: On North Last Chance Gulch
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • Well.... there are a lot of them! Unfortunately, I don't remember the exact name of this place but it was towards the end of N. Last Chance, beofre the "Atlas House".
    On this chilly November afternoon, a good coffee and homemade muffin was perfect! And the reds inside the room where particularly warming.

    Really good chocolate chip muffins!

    Emiliano's: Mexican Restaurants-3
  • Satisfaction:
  • Most popular Mexican Restaurant in town. People either love it or hate it, but no doubt it is the most busy and lively in town. Get there early or wait in line. Packed most nights. Has full liquor license, while the other places have either no liquor or only a beer/wine license. Fun patio dining in the summer.

    I think that the other Mexican places have better food, but the eats here are decent enough.

    Los Casadores: Mexican Restaurants-2
  • Satisfaction:
  • Real Mexican ownership, surprisingly good Mexican food, especially for a place that is attached to a gas station.
    Decor leaves a lot to be desired (Moose head with Sombrero is featured prominently, as well as lots of Corona posters) but this is actually the best-tasting Mexican food in the area!

    Terrific prices and you can feel comfortable bringing the kids.

    Really top notch homemade salsa. Huge servings of everything.

    La Casa Fiesta: Mexican Restaurant Review-1
  • Satisfaction:
  • Good little Mexican restaurant, off the beaten path, small local character. Small restaurant with very nice ambiance. Quiet.
    Very good prices.

    Great Chimichanga. Best Mexican food served by white people I have ever had!

    Benny's: Best alternative restaurant
  • Satisfaction:
  • Benny's is the only place where you can get unique and unorthodox fine dining. You can actually get vegetarian meals and there isn't a single steak on the menu.
    If you like a more citified restaurant and are tired of the endless succession of dead-animals-on-the-wall places, Benny's is the best!
    On the other hand, if you are a "red meat and potatoes" kind of person, Benny's will stretch your culinary comfort zone.

    You can't go wrong, it's all good!

    Silver Star: Swankiest Eats
  • Satisfaction:
  • Modern restaurant with retro western theme. Quite classy.
    This is Helena's newest fine dining restaurant.
    You have to have reservations. Unlike most Helena restaurants, the help here can be a little snotty, but they probably can afford to be because the place is full almost every night.

    Baseball Cut Top Sirloin is the best deal on the dinner menu, everything else is pretty expensive, but it's all tasty.
    For a less expensive option at this restaurant, order off the bar menu for a good selection of sandwiches and such.

    Planet Gyros: Not your average Gyros!
    Jam packed of whatever suits your fancy, these gyros are delicious! They have a wide variety of selections, so no matter what your taste, you'll find it here!

    All of their sandwiches are fantastic!

    The Silver Star Steak Co.: Vegetarians and Steak Lovers alike!
    The neatest lights, a waterfall and beautifull paintings adorn this establishment. The outside has as much appeal as the inside.

    Everything is wonderful! If you like steak, they have great steak. If you like seafood, they have great seafood. If you are a vegetarian, they have a wide variety of selctions for you, including a great portabella mushroom burger.
