Ward's Bridge Inn - Montgomery

I loved my evening dining at the bar. The head bartender, Mark, was amazing! He made you feel welcomed by using your name with your order. He was charming and very knowledgeable about drinks. His service was impeccable. I enjoyed great conversation with him, the second bartender Guy and the friendly regulars. My meal was delicious, the filet and mushroom salad and dessert of chocolate and peanut butter cake. Thank you!!!

Update We?ve been coming here for a few years and unfortunately, I believe last night?s visit will be our last. The quality of the food is just so inconsistent from visit to visit. In the past it has varied from good to phenomenal, but unfortunately the past several visits have been really pretty disappointing. It seems that the quality of the ingredients has decreased significantly, but the price is always well over a hundred dollars for two people. Last night the shrimp and scallop pappardelle pasta, a go to dish for me here, felt like something I?d get at Olive Garden but with a Manhattan fine dining price tag. They were out of the fresh pappardelle they usually serve (not noted on the menu or told when ordered) and it was replaced with what appeared to be store bought fettuccine that was all stuck together and seemed to have been precooked. The shrimp was super over cooked and the scallops tasted like they had gone bad. I am so disappointed because I truly did love this place, but it just hasn?t held up in terms of quality. Way too expensive for what it has become. Initial review I really like Ward?s bridge in. I live really close and it is a good option for a treat yourself type dinner that has a decent balance of higher end dishes and also a great burger. Their whipped garlic butter that comes with the free bread at the start is reason in and of itself to make a trip here. They have great drinks and I love how they bring around a tray with all of the desserts on it at the end so you can see before you order. As for the main dishes- we?ve never had anything that wasn?t good, but have occasionally been a bit disappointed when ordering their dishes that aren?t the more standard offerings. Their pastas, salads, burgers, steak? Fantastic. I wouldn?t recommend their Asian fusion dishes. Ward?s is a great restaurant and I will absolutely be back. If you want to go on a weekend, be sure to make a reservation. They fill up fast!

My wife and I went here for an Anniversary dinner and OMG was the food amazing!! I am a very picky eater and even I was impressed!! Everything from the very friendly and professional hostess to the warm inviting ambiance!!! Very well done guys!! We will be back ??

Today's Penne al la Vodka with shrimp at Ward's Bistro was excellent - a rich and filling meal. The rustic atmosphere at Ward's Bistro is truly fantastic. There are several top dishes to choose from, this being just one of them. The service is always exceptional at Ward's, setting a high standard.

The restaurant offers delicious food with generous portions and a wide variety of vegetarian options. They do not charge any additional fees for using credit cards.
