It had been a few years since I’ve been to Monte’s and let me tell you, 100% satisfied. Brad the owner is interactive with all the customers and the food was top tier. I had the shrimp and broccoli Alfredo and my girlfriend had the 18 oz. Ribeye! Both were amazing. Definitely recommend!

Absolutely delicious food! Kind of expensive but for good reason! Premium cuts of meat that melt in your mouth.

Nothing to write home about. The fresh mozzarella slices were pretty good. Not sure how the $50 steak is though. 70’s atmosphere. Chef ramsay would have a field day. Chicken dishes were fresh and good. Chicken sandwich was huge. Chicken piccata is pretty good. Service was friendly and kinda. Offered specials of the day. Moderately expensive on some items.

Not sure why people like this place. Old decor and over priced. Over use of peppercorn and weird gelatinous sauce with the filet mignon. Lots of ribs in my salad. Husband has diarrhea now, thanks.

I had the best ribeye I’ve ever eaten at a restaurant there and I love the old supper club feel. The owner has the right idea with this and i wish there were more like it.

Great dining experience! 8 of us got together to have a dinner before the holidays and do some catching up. The waitress and owner were very accommodating and helpful to make our visit perfect. I ordered the garlic steak which is cooked with 6 garlic cloves packed down into the meat. It was cooked the way I liked it. Others enjoyed salmon or another kind of fish. Sides were tasty also.

$150.00 for crab legs in Ottawa Illinois. If only their prices matched the 1970’s decor.

Always wonderful service! Excellent food and drinks. Brad and his team are a well oiled machine – all social distance and safety precaution in place. The great service allows you to focus on the enjoyment of a great meal out/date night/celebration & you can almost forget that the world is so crazy right now.
