    We booked 6 people before a local Show. The team were so great at getting our delicious food out quickly to us. It was much appreciated. Now I want to go back with more time to enjoy.

    Our second time here, and first review. Food was fantastic, great Italian experience, but with a mix of other cuisines for variety. Service was excellent and the vibe was awesome. I have hearing issues and it was very loud inside so I'll try outside next time.

    Bar Monti is an excellent venue. The service and food were fantastic. The Manager personally explained the specials with such passion that husband went out of comfort zone to try the fresh gnocchi. Our waiter ( a younger man ) was very attentive to our table, very friendly and knowledgeable. The venue is tucked in an alleyway with extra outside dining, so rustic and italian. Book early if you want to get a table, as it is very popular.
