This was our first visit to Montero's. We had reservations and were seated right away. Our server, Brooke, was very attentive and answered all our questions on menu items. We had the pickles and pimento cheese, and onion tanglers appetizers were quite tasty. Entrees were superb. The jumbo fried shrimp were butterflied and lightly dusted which made them easy to love. The Mahi with Crab Newberg was excellent, too. The included bread and assorted mini muffins were a nice touch. No strict dress code makes it non-stressed and just a simple place to get a great meal. All in with alcoholic drinks, apps, entrees and an excellent tip, we were at $220 for four adults. A very satisfying Friday night!

The blacken scallops or the Delmonico steak are worthless. The scallops were covered with a hot spicy crust and the steak was paper thin and had no flavor and full of gristle. The bar was ok and the waiter was attentive. This was to be our anniversary dinner. Very disappointed
Montero'sResponded on 28 October 2024
We're so sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your experience Bruce, even more so since it was a celebration. We would love to hear directly from you if you're willing, so that we can get a little more info from you and hopefully make things right for a future visit.
