Needed a quick, comforting bite (and easy online reserve process) at the end of a tiring day, and Monti's was good for that. Good draft IPA, a solid martini, friendly service. The mushroom cream soup was yummy (though a bit thick for my preference), and the roast chicken was good with just-right jus and a unique crispy-edged cornmeal cake to soak it up. The beet salad was just okay. The beets didn't really seem "roasted" as advertised, though who can argue with candied walnuts and chevre?! Do NOT pass up the profiteroles, as they are a revelation!! It's hard to find authentic profiteroles (i.e., ice-cream filled, rather than pastry cream filled) and these come closer than any I've found in decades, quite honestly! I live mostly sugar-free and eschew desserts, but ever since tasting them at Le Drugstore when my mom dragged me to Paris as a 16-year-old, I've been on a lifelong quest for profiteroles grail, and this definitely hit the spot, and made Monti's absolutely worth it!!

Celebrating our anniversary and they went above and beyond with service and acknowledgment of our special day. Only small issue was we were seated at kitchen in/out and had “corner” yelled out multiple times during meal. Some severs louder than others that made us jump. Might be good idea to not have a table at that location.

Usually a very good meal and experience but fell short this time. Had reservation but given a drafty table in high traffic area while someone without a reservation was given a much better table. Server showed up occasionally but was gone for long stretches of time. Hosts looked weary and unfriendly. Will go back because we know it can be better.

Food and service was great! We shared a pizza, the cauliflower side and the radicchio and apple salad all of which were very tasty. We were seated next to a noisy group, but our very kind waitress moved us to a table in a quieter area. The room was a little too cool and we felt a draft from an overhead vent which is the reason why I rated the ambiance four instead of five stars. I always enjoy dining at Monti’s because in addition to great food and service, there is a casual, and festive atmosphere.

I dine at Monti's frequently, and love the place. A friend from out of state and I dined there last evening, and our meal was great. I had to give a bit of a lower than usual rating here, because even though the crowd was less than usual, even for a Tuesday, the service was very slow compared to normal. They appeared to be understaffed. Our server was very nice and very professional, as always, but everything was slower that usual. We had to flag someone down to get our bill taken care of as well. I'll certainly be back, because I trust this was an aberration, and as always, the food was excellent.

Monti's has a very promising menu and some items are great. Both salads we got as a party were delicious, the calamari were fresh and the sole almandine was made perfect. But they didn't ask our table how well done we wanted our prime rib and both orders had to be sent back. The cauliflower was also flavorless and our server seemed to be short on time when she check in with us and took long breaks in between getting back to us.

Monti's is a great place to join a friend for a drink and a snack or appetizer or a nice meal. The outdoor seating is ample and has good heaters, and is substantially quieter than eating indoors. Our server was friendly but did not "hover," and we never felt rushed. I feel like I receive quality creative food and beverages, and excellent service whenever I go to Monti's.
