I have been going to this French restaurant for some years now and always look forward to going back. The staff is friendly, receptive, and accommodating. I have a fond relationship with Jose and he smiles and recognizes me each time I go. The only negative thing I experience, not the fault of the restaurant, is diners who don't have consideration of others, loud mouths, and those who come dressed in outside work clothes. This puts a damper on the dining experience.

We love the place, have for years. Best when there are fewer people there because the noise level is too high. But we're glad to see their business is so good. Cafe Monte is on our top 5 list.
