Biankini's - Bozeman

This restaurant has the best sandwiches! I've eaten here several times, and I've never been disappointed.

The food was good, but the service was quite basic. It felt expensive for what we received. When I asked about the soup of the day, the server pointed to a sign in a rather unpleasant manner. Given the high prices, I was expecting a better overall experience.

I stopped by for a quick meal before a nearby appointment. I had the roasted chicken on ciabatta and a half salad with their ginger lime dressing. At first, I wasn't expecting much when I saw what looked like deli meat, but I was pleasantly surprised when I tasted it. The chicken was juicy, the bread was just right, and the pesto and vegetables were fantastic. The salad was also delicious. I’ll definitely be back. I'm really glad I decided to stop in!

My 17yo son asked me if I wanted to go to Biankinis and then started frying bacon. I thought he had changed his mind but he was bringing his own bacon. Now I know why. He wanted to have a sandwich with Turkey, Bacon, Avocado, Cheese and Mayo on Ciabatta bread. This option is $18.95. He brought 2 strips of bacon to save the $4.50 add on charge. I ordered a sandwich on rye with meat, cheese and coleslaw. I asked for it to be grilled and they said “heated”? I said yes. The normal size bread sandwich was $12.20 and not grilled. The Turkey and cheese were heated but the bread was not. My opinion is that the gold standard for sandwiches is Mama Macs but I don’t always want to drive 15 mins. They charge $9.75 for a Turkey Avocado Bacon with Cheese and they grill their Turkey Ruebens which are also $9.75. We aren’t cheap and understand that rent is higher in Bozeman so would be happy to pay $12 for our sandwiches if they get a panini maker and don’t charge $6.75 to add avocado and bacon to a sandwich.

The food is very good, but every time I have been helped by the older lady at the counter she has been very rude. When I told my family they said it had been the same for them when helped by her, everyone else is great. The food is good enough I will be back, more of a note for the owner.
