Jasper's Restaurant

We spent the night in St. Regis on our way to Glacier National Park for the week.  The restaurant was quite busy with the Saturday dinner crowd when we arrived, and, they had already run out of the entree I wanted to order, BUT, we enjoyed the experience dining  here.  The prices were reasonable, the waitress was so very pleasant and accommodating and hard-working, our dinner was tasty (pot roast, mashed potatoes w/gravy, veggies) & the proportions generous, and, the dessert - a huckleberry pie ala mode - was so delightful that it became the first of several huckleberry pie pieces we would consume during our week in Glacier NP.  We were trying to find "Jasper-like" restaurants during our week at Glacier but no one came close.  So we stopped at Jasper's for breakfast on our return trip home.   The sweet cream pancakes were a treat - large and rich in fact that no butter or syrup was needed.  We happily "boxed" what we couldn't finish to take home with us.   Well done, Jasper staff.

Being on the road for days, you eventually have your fill of restaurant food and people. We arrived for breakfast early this morning and the "seat yourself" sign welcomed us. Okay...whatever. well, the first two available tables we found were strategically placed directly under speakers, playing the music too loudly. So, we found a back table, next to the door to the casino (which also happens to be the only way to access the bathrooms, oh goodie). The one waitress handling the entire place was cordial enough, and tried her best to accommodate us, even though there were no other tables, and we had to endure a very rude woman seated behind us, who did nothing but antagonize her male companion, answering his every question by dropping the "f" bomb.
We ordered, my husband chose his usual fare of eggs/ham steak/hasbrowns/toast, and I chose the belgian waffle w/ huckleberry topping and whip, but an unfortunate breakdown of the waffler sent our waitress back out to apologize and ask me to order something else. I asked if I could have a 1/2 order of french toast w/ the huckleberry topping and whip and she was more than happy to accommodate. I highly recommend asking for this! It was scrumptious and the 4 halves of toast were more than enough! My husband's ham steak was huge and he said his eggs were down to perfection (he likes to mix them together w/ his hasbrowns). He loved the tang of the sourdough toast and the price of our two meals together was less than $20. I've stopped at the St Regis area many times, but this was my first foray into Jasper's. I hope that the food is consistently good, and that they ensure they are adequately staffed, as I will definitely stop here again.

After a long weekend backpacking we were starving.  The $9 hamburger was a frozen patty on a crappy bun.  The $10 Chicken Sandwich was a frozen patty that only filled half the bun.  My $13 Chicken Parmesan was egg noddles with watered down ragu with a 1 chicken strip diced up on top.
We all agreed that the food quality was on par with a school cafeteria. One of the worst restaurants I have ever been to.
