    Our reservation was waiting for us right on time. We were greeted by a very energetic young lady and were served promptly by another young lady. We were a table of four with split bills. I was the only person to take advantage of the "All You Can Eat Rib Special". Two of the othes had the full racks only and one other had the Chicken Fajitas. Service was prompt, hot and as ordered. Everyone enjoyed what they ordered and were full enought that they had to take pat of their main courses home. I was a little piggish and had my ribs replenished a few times. I, we, would recommend Montana's on Ottowa in Kitchener at any time. Everytime we have gone there we have not been disappointed. We will be going back soon!
