Black Eagle is a tiny town that sits just outside of Great Falls. Once known as “Little Chicago” due to its early bustling activity from smelters and refineries, this spot is now known mainly as a quiet suburb of Great Falls.
While there aren’t many amenities in Black Eagle, it is home to Borrie’s Supper Club, a tasty restaurant that dates all the way back to 1938. And nearly a century later, it’s still being run by the same family.
Borrie’s Supper Club is located at 1800 Smelter Ave.

In 1938, Emilio “Borrie” Grasseschi first opened Borrie’s Restaurant and Lounge. It was an instant hit.

The dining room looks different than it did in the 1950s, but if you’ve dined here over the last several decades, you might keep seeing the same familiar faces.
Chance Anderson / Google Not only does Borrie’s have high staff retention, most of which are friends and family, but the customer loyalty is unparalleled. Some of the customers have been dining here their entire lives.
Of course, a restaurant is only as good as its food. And this one doesn’t disappoint.

Every batch of spaghetti sauce, salad dressing, and soup is made from the same decades-old family recipes used in the beginning.

Of course, if you visit on a Tuesday, there’s only one thing to order for dinner: prime rib.
