We've been here several time & have always had excellent service. Food is always delicious! Good selection of wine, beer & spirits.

The salmon dip was a mixture of bland and dissatisfiing porage like concoction that seemed to have been bought from a local grocery store that they put half a bag of pecans ontop of, next was the overly drenched salad with day old lettuce to say the least with an added two cherry tomatoes to make the already dissatisfiing meal that much worse, the main course (linguini) had a midly watered down half ass made meat sauce which had been mixed with an overly sized handful of cheese which sadly provided the most flavor of my entire meal, I hope to see this establishment change their food quality soon or be shut down for lack of better judgement on food quality read more

I travel a lot, so I get to sample a lot of restaurants. This one impresses me as one of the very best - I rate it as outstanding in every dimension. I recommend the house dressing and the spinach angel hair pasta - the best I have experienced. I would also encourage sitting at the bar - where you can watch a very professional team in action. If I could give this restaurant a ten star rating I would. read more

Great food and great service! One of the most consistent meals in Helena!

I've eaten here before (many years ago). After a funeral our family wanted to go somewhere to enjoy a meal and be together. We called and they said "We don't accept reservations, so if you have a larger party have someone come earlier to reserve the space". So we did. We showed up at 6:10pm for a 7pm dinner for 18. When we got there - there were several open tables as well as a completly empty entry/cocktail area (didn't really look "cocktail" looked more like seven empty tables in the front of the restaurant, three empty tables directly across from the bar and at least three empty four tops in the main area of the restaurant. But the manager who was training a hostess said "We don't have the capacity to handle your party." We were very open to being creative we told him. "We don't have enough servers" he said. My friend and I said - we waited tables for over a decade or more each - we will run the food, we are mellow, tip big and just need to be accomodated in this special situation. "We just cannot handle your party." We told him what we were told over the phone...he said "If you REALLY wanted your party to be here - you should have showed up at 5:30 when we open." We were never told there was a problem - if we had been told to show up at 5:30pm we would have. "Well, who did you speak with? Someone in the kitchen?" Clearly, I can't tell you it was someone in the kitchen - it was someone who worked here though..."Do you have a name?" No. This was a total diappointment. My husband is a caterer and he would have been disgusted with the way we were treated. It was clear that this man did not want to make any money for the restaurant - if he was my manager I would have fired him. The food here is fine, but over priced and if you're gonna pay for over priced pasta and steak you might as well get good service. This is NOT the best food in Helena - go to the Windbag for a better meal and WAYYYYYYYY better service! This was a crappy way to end an emotional day of funeral and burrial and even sadder when the place would not make the slightest effort to accomodate us. I'll never go back! read more

Expensive and the food is just okay. Waitstaff at times can not be bothered to acknowledge you. Antipast appetizer is good for a group.

Fantastic, great service and a very knowledgeable staff. Even when one meal was not what we expected they made a point of taking it off of our bill (and it was my error for not reading it correctly). We always enjoy visiting On Broadway. read more

On Broadway has significance for my family-3 of my brothers worked there when they were in high school and when we have our homecomings in Helena we go to dinner there. I try something different every time and continue to be underwhelmed. It is consistently bland and uninspired. Most dishes seem to be made with an abundance of salt and lots of mediocre cheese. The service is adequate and the atmosphere doesn't seem to have changed since the early 80s so it's great if your'e into the dark woods and poor lighting. Not that Helena has a lot of options for better restaurants but try something else. read more

We stopped here at about 8:00 pm on a road trip, and we were very happy that we did. We had excellent service from a waiter named Sean. He was very attentive and accommodating. Our food arrived quickly and was delicious. The ingredients were fresh and high quality. We had lasagna (apparently the same guy has been making it since the 80s). We also had the filet and putenesca. Each dish came with a nice side salad that included some very yummy tomatoes and house made dressing. They also make their own pastas in house. We would definitely go back again. Thank you On Broadway! read more

Food was pretty good it's pretty hard to get seats they fill up the moment you open. Make sure to arrive right when they open!!

One of my favorite dinner spots in Helena. The food is consistent and the atmosphere is really nice and cozy. My go-to dish is the prosciutto angel hair, which is loaded with mushrooms and a decadent sauce. Mmm! The house made dressings are all winners and there are always some interesting wines to try out. The rolls are locally made, which leads to my one gripe: how hard would it be to warm up the bread a little bit? The rolls are always served room temp or even cold, and I just know they would be exponentially better if warmed in the oven a bit so they could get a nice chewy crust. I'd also love to see some tiramisu on the menu as well. read more

Didn't give 5 stars because there's ALWAYS room for improvement, BUT had the best meal I've encountered in Helena: don't remember what I ordered, but everything was delish.....also service was spot-on, seating was perfect......highly recommend for a special night, or just in the mood for an outstanding meal.... read more

Consistently delicious. Great servers and bartenders. The halibut is excellent. They make their pasta daily. Live jazz every Thursday and sometimes other music on Wednesday. Music is low volume - sit close if you want to hear, sit far if you don't. read more

Shrimp over-done. Scallops under seasoned and over-done, chewy. They are known for in house made pasta but I can't report as it was covered by a thick sauce that soon turned the entire bowl to an inedible mass. This is my 4th and final attempt to find something better than mediocre on the menu. read more

Nice atmosphere, good service. The wife had the lasagna and she liked it. I had the spinach angel hair with four cheeses, it too was good. We both started with salads with creamy Parmesan dressing which was tasty. The wine list is small and limited. There should be some higher-end wines. We would come back. read more

Great food and romantic atmosphere. The wait staff is always experienced and polite. Great wine selection, and some very unique and delicious dishes. Always a good choice to impress a date ;) read more

I am from Helena and we have very few options for good food. For decades, On Broadway has been the best...great service, great food and great atmosphere. Sadly, something has changed in the past few years. It's always been the place to go when colleagues are visiting from out of town or for special occasions with the family. I've hesitated to write a review because I keep thinking it will get better. It's tragic..the tuna used to be magnificent and is now inedible. So I've been trying different dishes. The pesto, even when ordered with light sauce as recommended by the waitress, is like a bowl of pesto soup with noodles. Tonight I tried the prosciutto angel hair pasta. It was lukewarm and I felt like I was at the Olive Garden. Given the lack of alternatives in this town I hope our last fine dining establishment will resolve whatever is going on. Food is now mediocre at best, and the service is rushed and frantic. The atmosphere and drinks are still great but I hope management takes note and brings back the food that we love. It used to be worth the 45 minute wait...not so much any more. Helena deserves better. read more

My family has been dining at On Broadway ever since it opened over 25 years ago. I've since moved away but make it a point to have dinner there whenever I visit Helena. Every time it is just as good as I remembered. We recently celebrated my father's 90th birthday there and they made it very special. They don't take reservations but quickly seated our party of seven. The atmosphere is upscale without being pretentious. Our waiter Sean was friendly, knowledgable and attentive but not intrusive. Most of our dinners were excellent. The house salads are huge with a nice variety of dressings. For entrees we had Chicken Broadway, cannelloni, clams with linguini and a halibut special, all delicious. Only the eggplant del sol was not a success, with mushy eggplant and a tasteless sauce. The wine selection was good and the wines by the glass were reasonably priced. We were too full to order dessert but shared a tasty chocolate mousse cake they gave my dad. On Broadway is the place to go for a special celebration or any time you are looking for an excellent meal. read more

This is my go-to special date restaurant. Classy, and fantastic food. I love their menu, and I've never ordered anything that wasn't absolutely excellent. Perfect for a nice night out. read more

1st place i ate in Helena, and it happened to be Jazz night so the experience was priceless!

I came here for dinner one night and I'm hooked, i had a crab pasta that i cant quite forget about. Our server was awesome, he was helpful in our selection of wine and dinner. We ordered Tasmanian Sweet Crab and Clam Sauce, both were fresh and delicious. Cant wait to return! read more

Love their food and in spite of how busy they are, service is great and surprisingly fast!

Excellent customer service from the host the busboy our server and the live performers! That said, I had the Ribeye Steak Broadway and it was one of the better steaks I've eaten. The homemade creamy parmesan salad dressing and fresh greens were awesome as well. However, it was my friend's birthday and we asked about desert (although we were really full) and our server suggested that we have the Huckleberry Rum Swirl Cheesecake. Okay, if that didn't just put the perfect finishing touch on a very memorable meal! The cheesecake is made fresh daily in the restaurant and it was creamy and delicious! Give em a try, I doubt you'll be disappointed! read more

In my opinion, the best upscale restaurant in Helena. Funky decor, but that is what gives it character. LOVE the ahi tuna skewer appetizer, and the pesto linguine entree. read more

Service and food are always great! Does the line at the door give you any reason to believe anything else? People are dying to eat here.

never go here if you want good nails. i went to the 'on broadway nail salon' with high expectations and left with horrible looking nails and a bitchy mood. the lady that did my nails was rude and disrespectful. 0/10 would not go again. my nails looked super trashy and i would have been better off covering them with globs of confetti. i mean it wouldve looked better than the trashy design that was forced onto my nails as i left the coffee shop into the brisk morning i could feel the sun slowly moving and circulation around the earth towards me, bringing warmth. i hadnt spoken to christopher in 8 days and i was proud of myself for starting to move on. just my luck that i turn around and bump into GUESS WHO: chritsopherr. the air felt cold and crisp, like when you break an apple slice in half swiftly. read more
