The chicken was moist and flavorful, but I have concerns about the cleanliness of the restaurant even after overcoming the shady exterior.
We were served a salad with a near-rotten tomato. We also received expired sour cream with the meal. The bathrooms also needed a cleaning.
The jo-jos (oversize fries) were okay, but the size greatly varied, which resulted in some being overcooked.
Despite having a lot of staff the waitress never checked on us so we could bring these issues to her attention.
This lack of attention to detail is concerning and I highly recommend you check your food thoroughly before eating.
"Winner winner chicken dinner." Â I definitely felt like a winner after ordering the "chicken dinner" at Suds Hut. Â The skin of the chicken was very crispy and flavorful, while the meat was very moist and tender. Â The "chicken dinner" includes a half chicken and a side of HUGE potato wedges. Â I will definitely come back here again.
Review Source:We love the Suds Hut. Â HOWEVER, there are times when the food is not as good as others. Â We ordered takeout tonight and it was bad. Â They obviously need to change their grease more often than they do. Â The potatoes were almost black and tasted like old grease. Â YUCK! Â They certainly looked nothing like the photo below...
Come on, Suds Hut! You can do better!
UPDATE: Â The owner of Suds Hut contacted me to apologize for the condition of the food we got, and offered to buy us dinner. Â I have to say - really appreciate the follow up and the care for his customers. Â I am changing my review from my original 1 star to 4 because of that. Â We consider ourselves regulars, and will go back again and again!
Yes, the Hut has good yummy chicken. It can be a bit greasy, but it's yummy and they have a decent dinner salad (get the dressing on the side as they over do it). The Jojo's (deep fat large french fries) are tasty too - great place for a pitcher of beer, some friend chicken and a little keno. Â Coat check? That's funny! Parking in front and a patio in back. It is good.
Review Source:Don't forget to try items other than the chicken; I've finally found a decent burger in Helena. The spicy giardinara mix that I ordered on the side wasn't quite what I expected (it was hot, as in temperature) but it was good, and the giant beers washed it down nicely. As a side note, if you drink 5 Millers, you get the sixth free.
As a side note/rant: if you are going out to eat, or just going out in general, don't slather yourself in cheap, nasty, trashy perfume (or any kind of perfume, really). A little dab'l do ya'. A fellow patron at the Hut nearly ruined our experience because she stunk so bad. Luckily we were seated far away from her, before I totally lost my appetite and/or visibly dry heaved. What evil stench were you trying so hard to cover up, honey?
Great place to eat! Â As others have mentioned, the interior is not really what you'd expect from the outside of the place. Â There's a cozy fireplace and a pretty nice indoor area. Â Food took a little while, but our server was friendly and attentive. Â We had the broasted chicken - couldn't really tell much of a difference between that and fried chicken (it was maybe a little moister), but it was good nonetheless. Â They serve Cheesecake Factory cheesecake, too, which was delicious.
Review Source:LOVE the Suds Hut. The chicken is really really good. The burgers and sliders are delicious. Basically everything we've tried on the menu is great (we haven't tried the fried gizzards...not our thing). Haven't had a bad meal there yet. Our friends go there at least once per week.
Okay, the decor is a little cheesy, but it fits. The whole place has a great sense of humor. The marquee out front flashes "60 degrees: CHICKEN WEATHER" (60, or whatever temperature it is...always chicken weather). Plus there's a menu item that's a deluxe chicken dinner for two, with a bottle of Dom Perignon :)
Do you know what Broasted Chicken is? Taken from  a food website Q and A section: "Broasting is a registered process that builds pressure in the pot which seals in the natural juices while sealing out almost 100% of the cooking oil. It is not only the process of frying chickens under pressure, but includes a special marinating process. The Broasting process makes chicken that has the taste of fried chicken, but is moister and less greasy. This process is NOT available to home cooks. The Broasters and the seasonings are sold only to restaurants and the food trade, so Broasted chicken is available to you only when you dine out."
I had the pleasure of eating broasted chicken at Suds Hut with my foodie companion, Mr. Hottie and I loved it! When he told me about the place I was curious but not super excited to go. When we sat down in this simple/ almost divey eatery, I was told to not even look at anything else but the chicken. I did have a chance to look around at the restaurant. It's old, but homey. It had a fire pit in the middle of the room and I guess the fire is roaring during the winter. There were a lot of large tables with families seated. This place was pretty much hopping. Our waitress was quick and efficient and got our food and drinks out without a problem. After taking in the scene, it was time to eat! I thought the chicken was merely fried. I was wrong, my dear foodies, dead wrong. This chicken was super infused with fried goodness, but not as greasy as you would think. The meat was moist and just as tasty as the skin. It came with a simple side salad and we ordered potato wedges to go with our food. I washed it all down with a HUGE goblet of Moose Drool beer and I was a very happy and FULL girl!
I would definitely come back to Suds Hut to eat some golden broasted goodness! The meal was very simple, and yet delicious!
