Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Monument

Absolutely THE best! From the 1st greeting to the last goodbye, service, food and I couldn’t have asked for more for a reunion of old friends from CA! Excellent in every way!

Food was very good. Service was excellent. It’s loud in there because there isn’t much to break up the noise but that’s not a deal breaker. We were a little surprised at the portion sizes of the pasta dishes. I’m not saying they should serve an entire family but they seemed a little skimpy. The branzino was delicious. We’ll go back for sure.

Sixth visit to the Steakhouse at Flying Horse, first time visiting on a Holiday (New Years Day). Party of four with shared sides. The Potatoes Au Gratin recipe has changed and the portion size has diminished significantly. This side was very overcooked and the cheese on top so overdone, it could barely be cut with a steak knife. The bottom of the side dish was also burnt to the cast iron dish, so much so that most of the food could not be removed. The Ribeye was very evenly cooked as ordered in spite of the fact that the center of the cut showed no browning, grill marks or charred exterior. First 22oz Ribeye I've had that wasn't at least as thick as the rib it came with and noticeably thinner than the other served at our table. Kudos to our our server Michael who was exceptional in every way. We were celebrating two December Birthdays which Flying Horse made memorable, just not in the way I had hoped.

Amazing (as usual)! Beautiful city views, such unique and delicious flavor combos. Gluten free accommodations were top tier!

Amazing experience! Started with the prosciutto, a pinot grigio, and had the tagliatelle, followed by the torta. It was all so wonderful! HIGHLY recommend the tagliatelle!! I sat at the bar, where Caesar waited on me, and he was exceptional. Highly attentive but not over-bearing; he was personable and friendly. I loved the ambiance as well. It should also be said, Caesar went above and beyond, and is an expert in his craft! Make a reservation, and you will not be disappointed.
