Brian's Top Notch Cafe — Restaurant in Great Falls

I've only had food from here a time or two, and every time...never impressed. It wasn't horrid, but also nothing worth writing about.

However, the poor hours, poor health inspections, and poor outlook from the owner...that warrants a review.

The few times I've had food from here has been someone bringing to me, or from the trailer he has. Huge reason for me never going in person to the restaurant is the odd hours that are kept. I understands its a family operation, but the seemingly random hours makes it hard to show up when they are open. Even then, if you do go, be warned that they have had issues with hand washing in the trailer and poor food storage in the main restaurant (both of this can be checked on through Cascade County Department of health). But the nail in the coffin is how Brian, the owner, views the LGBTQ+ community in town. He's made a few snide remarks in past about the community, but nothing that could be waved away as a poor joke.

This one man provided us with a better combination of service, hospitality, and food than any other host of workers has done for me before. Nothing about this place is cliche and it doesn’t pretend to be anything other than “Brian’s Top Notch Cafe.” I can confidently say that I will go out of my way to visit this...

The food was good but to be truly honest that was about it, the place is pretty dirty they only wipe the tables down after you sit down and they hand you a menu, the older gentleman was very nice and friendly, but the waitress left a lot to be desired, she never picked up any used plates left by other customers, there was also a little kid (i assume must be the son of the waitress) there that was nonstop screaming and crying the whole time, he also tried turning off my grandmothers oxygen tank while we were eating and the waitress never even tried stopping him at all, the food was good but all the other stuff made me never want to step foot back in there, the place has alot of work to do until its...
