Less than 2 weeks to go!!! Looking for advice on a restaurant in BG, I have narrowed it down to Montana Grill or 440 Main. Any advice? I have heard good things about both, everything else is set, Can't wait!

I have never been to 440 main, but I have enjoyed several dinners at Montana Grill. So far, I have never been disappointed.

They are both fantastic and you can't go wrong with either. The only thing I would add is that 440 Main is a bit more upscale than the Montana Grill is. The grill is a steakhouse, a very good one, but a steak house. 440 Main offers a bit more in the way of atmosphere but will cost you a little more.

You're as bad as me. I've been reduced to planning every little detail about the drive home while I wait.

Across the street from the Montana Grill is Rafertys. Rafertys is a good resturant also.

VettLess;

I am as bad as you. I have begun the planning for a Museum Pick Up on August 25'th of this year.

It will be my first Vett and I am very excited. I have been saving for several years.

When do you plan on picking yours up?

Jeff...

I went to 440 Main during my museum visit a year ago and it was good. Expensive, but good.

We dined at the Montana Grill last spring and were favorably impressed. Definitely better than Outback. I have not tried 440 Main.

I have not been to 440 Main, but my wife and I really enjoyed dinner at the Montana Grill the night before our delivery, and the beer is really cold! Hey, why not hit both? The Montana Grill the night before, and then the 440 Main on your way out of town.

Either way, congratulations, and enjoy your day.

I ate at Montana Grill and Rafferty's both are very good. They are owned by the same company.

I agree, Mariah's had VERY good food and great atmosphere. Get's you downtown away from the interstate too.
