    If I tell how fabulous the food is, it will just make it harder for me to get in next time. So why would I tell anyone that they make the best baked clams in the city? Or the veal chop smothered in peppers is to die for the fact I have been coming here for over thirty years and the quality hasn’t changed shouldn’t influence anyone to go to Montes so do me a favor and go somewhere else

    Food was generally very good, except for the house salad, which consisted of 95% romaine lettuce and a few bits of carrot and tomato. The baby artichoke appetizer and the veal chop Milanese were excellent, as were the pasta dishes. Service was a bit slow on a busy Saturday night, when every table on both levels were taken. Noise level upstairs was good.

    Excellent service by the female server! Food was very tasty. We had pastina broth soup, baked clams, straw and hay pasta and fettuccine bolognese. Pastas were made in house and were very flavorful as was both the soup and clams! Service very attentive! Very reasonably priced! There’s a reason that it has been around 100 years.

    Tony is the best. We had to get to the comedy cellar afterwards and he delivered everything perfectly on time but on top of that was hilarious and fun. Food is also very good, especially the Caesar salad

    I love Monte's order regularly to go, but the food is so wonderful piping hot out of the kitchen. This is a very traditional Italian restaurant, with exceptional food (make sure to consider the specials). The Veal Parm is a staple and as good as it gets. Great service too. I could eat there all the time.
