    Every time I have had a meal at Cafe Monte, it has been a good experience -- good food, good service, and reasonable prices for the quality of the food. Tonight's dinner with a grandson included green salad and caesar salad for starter, steak frites and bouillabaisse as mains, and a shared piece of chocolate cake for dessert.

    There for a birthday lunch with my dear friend. Seated right away, nice crowd, acknowledged by our server right away. Both the Host and Server knew and acknowledged my friend’s birthday. Server mentioned that dessert was on the house so save room. Server realized we were catching up so offered to keep an eye on us while we chatted. Food was out shortly after we ordered, everything was tasty. We did note that server unobtrusively kept an eye on us, refilling our tea etc. definitely knew we were there for a leisurely lunch. Offered dessert menu and suggestions, and thoughtfully brought 2 plates/flatware (vs just dbl flatware which always feels weird) As mentioned, we enjoyed a lovely afternoon. As we departed other associates acknowledged us and thanked us for coming.

    We didn’t have the best experience here and the food was ok. We had made a reservation for noon and weren’t seated until almost 12:25. Turns out they forgot about us and gave our table away. We checked in at 12:15 and they said we were next and then proceeded to seat two more tables who arrived after we did. Finally asked again and were seated. The best part of the meal was the croissants. I used to love this place but won’t be back.

    My boyfriend and I love this restaurant. The food is always consistently delicious, service excellent and a wonderful ambiance. Plus, we can hear each other for a pleasant conversation! Highly recommend Cafe Monte for any occasion or just a relaxing night out.

    The menu looks awesome. So many things to choose from. But the execution has missed the mark a few times in a row, for us. Pretty flavorless (and we shared our dishes) and a very aggressive use of cream in a lot of dishes (crepes primarily). Service was also spotty for us. We waited a long time before seeing our waitress. Then she was attentive but towards the end she disappeared again for a long time. Such a bummer because we used to love Cafe Monte!

    Service at Cafe Monte is always excellent. The food is tasty, however, there is too much black pepper, which overpowers the taste of the food. The tables are too small and the chairs are extremely uncomfortable.
