Montana’s Best Hole-In-The-Wall Restaurant Is A Fan Favorite.

Growing up, there was this little diner about 20 minutes away that was a real hole-in-the-wall. I mean, this place was a dive. Concrete floors, none of the silverware matched, and the chairs had holes in them

It certainly wasn't the type of place that you would go if you were looking for ambiance; however, if you were looking for great food, it was certainly on your radar.

We all know places like that. Little dives that, while there's not much to look at, produce big flavors that keep the customers coming back for more. I love those types of places. I love the stories, the food, the people, and the feeling you get when you sit down and have a meal that was prepared with love.
