Great spot! We saw this place on tv so we had to visit. Cozy and inviting. Food is delicious, nice portions. The gnocchi...heavenly...wow. The appetizer sampler was a fantastic variety.
Monte's is an old school red sauce (gravy if from Brooklyn or South Philly) style restaurant. They serve up mostly classic Italian American dishes in authentic fashion. Everything we had was very good to outstanding! We started off with roasted pepper bruschetta that was sublime! Just like my grandma's! We had the house salad which again was an excellent, crispy old school Italian American version with oil and vinegar dressing. For entrees we had Rigatoni Bolognese and it was very good. Pasta was perfectly al dente. The sauce itself was very good but could've been more generous and a bit richer. A minor quibble. The Veal Parm though was outstanding and the star of the show! It was among the best versions I've ever had whether from a restaurant or made by a relative. The Veal was thin and tender and perfectly coated. The sauce was delicious and could tell was old school prepared low and slow. For dessert we had Tiramisu which was an excellent version. Service was fantastic. Our server was attentive and charming. The atmosphere was typical old style Italian eatery. Prices were reasonable especially for this section of Manhattan. This is a must visit for those cravings of old school Italian American food.
Absolutely super. We had Minestrone Soup/ Boned - in Veal and Connoli. The soup was a step back in time to when Soup was to be consumed and enjoyed, and reasonably priced. Next, the boned -in- veal was amazing and easily surpassed the North Beach S.F restaurant and the "Old town Pasadena establishment that we were familiar Lastly , Cannoli that we have not had since 1975 taste any better. and the Staff SALUTE!
Amazing cheese ravioli with a great old-fashioned marinara sauce. Nothing too special, but has a homey feeling and charm to it. Came with complimentary bread (nice crunch!) and olive oil. Service was quick and the servers were welcoming and put a smile on my face. Crowded ambiance of Caffe Reggio, loved the wall of pictures.
The food was fantastic and the prices were reasonable. That's not common for NYC! The Paglia e Fieno was my favorite dish. The service was good - they get very busy!Very good homemade pasta and an old school Italian vibe. Check it out!
Oh my gosh ya'll Monte's is a gem! If you are looking for a good old fashioned red sauce, homemade, traditional Italian restaurant this is your spot. Each person that we interacted with on the staff made us feel welcomed and appreciated. And the food, amazing! We tried several dishes family style. The highlights were the pastas for sure but the chicken, the short ribs, everything was excellent. They ask that you not be seated until your full party has arrived so if you're early grab a seat at the bar for a cocktail and a chat. We could not recommend Monte's more and will certainly be back next time we're in NYC. Happy eating!
Amazing cute local spot. Great people, awesome vibe! Loved my recommended Italian wine - however the food was good not great. I do t think you can go wrong but neither myself or plus 1 had anything I could write here as a must try... but of what we did do the spaghetti carbonara was the best. Definitely worth the experience.
Always good times at Monte's. Great atmosphere with good people and good food. It's been a while since I've eaten here, and I stopped by since I was in the neighborhood for a bite to eat. It's great seeing Peter and the staff who always show me love. If you haven't been to Monte's, you are missing out on the total package of fine dining.
