I've been looking for a place near me that sells chopped cheese for years and I've finally found it. It's a 20 min drive for me just to get there, but its well worth the trip. My wallet will never be the same because of this place.

Got the breakfast burrito w/ bacon 10/10. I didn’t get the lady’s name who helped me but she was super nice and helpful and hooked me up with a drink. I will be coming back to try more of their foods.

An event brought me here and their menu looked so good, I had to order some more to try on my own and bring home for a hearty meal later.

Monty's is in a plaza literally right next to the 10 freeway. Exit the plaza and turn right to get straight onto the freeway! The plaza has limited parking but people come and go, especially if they're here to get something from the nearby smoke shop. Inside Monty's, there's elevated seating and regular table seating for maybe 4-5 groups. They have a Pepsi soda fountain machine for your dine-in needs.

Everything on their menu looked great so it was hard to pick just two things to get. I ended up ordering the following with no regrets:

* Breakfast burrito with all the meats (bacon, sausage, steak). $10 base price plus $2.50 for sausage and $4 for steak. Decent amount of filling and protein. Yummy. Will probably stick to just one protein like steak, given the various price points for extra meat.

* Monty's Favorite #3 with 4 pieces of fried chicken and a waffle ($14). OMG, the fried chicken was so crispy! It comes with some hot sauce and syrup for dipping and the staff stopped by to give us some housemade garlic aioli to pair with the chicken. Heavenly! I didn't finish and heated up the waffle 2 days later. Still crisp! What the heck. I was amazed.

Service was excellent and they're pretty efficient with balancing dine-in and pick-up orders. Will be back to try their other sandwiches like the French dip, the cheesesteak, and even the grilled cheese. Hopefully they also keep the Hot 5 on their menu. Fingers crossed.

Monty’s is amazing! Chicken and waffles are 🔥

I had high hopes but maybe I didn’t order the right thing on the menu. I got the chopped cheese, and it was very bland. Took 30 minutes to get my order out and saw people come and go.

Maybe try the cold cuts, but the chopped cheese was not the move.

Located in a mini shopping mall is this hidden little gem called Monty's. It's at the location where Jay's Philly Cheese steak once stood. I sampled the chicken and waffle, and the french dip sandwich. The chicken was well cooked, crispy moist, delicious. The waffle, flavorable, not over cooked, nice combination of crisp and softness. The French Dip was excellent. Good size portion, moist steak, worked well with the white american cheese. The side of au jus is a soy sauce mix that I recommend dipping and not saturating your sandwich with it. Delicious. Prices are reasonable as well, total was under $25.00. Parking can be difficult but well worth it. I will return.

Picked up a sandwich to split with my wife for a quick lunch bite. Gal behind the counter (owner? Head chef?) suggested sampling my way through their in-house aguas, to which I was grateful. My first chopped cheese. Excellent sandwich. I'll be back!

I’m going back tomorrow to try their breakfast burrito!!

Had Monty’s on my list for a few months and finally decided to give a try when my wife was craving Chicken & Waffles!

Service was great, very welcoming and took time to talk about their Cheesesteak best sellers and give us recommendations based on our tastes. Even came out after we had been served our food to check on us and offer extra toppings, I got some pickles which paired well with the poblano cheesesteak!

Cheesesteak was perfectly hot off the grill, bread was soft and every bite was juicy. Adding pickle slices a little hot sauce (stole from my wife’s chicken & waffles but I’m sure I could have asked for some at no charge) was the perfect touch.
The chicken was crispy on the outside and meat still juicy. The waffles wasn’t as crispy as my liking but it had good flavor and a dense softness that pair nicely with the chicken.

Service was good. Music inside was a bit too loud for my personal liking. Small sitting arrangement if dinning in. Food was great. Wait time is a typical dine in with a small crew that prepares ingredients as you place your order. Definitely worth checking out. Parking lot is shared area with other businesses close to an on ramp to the freeway just keep that in mind.

Today I was craving ice cream so I went to Michoacana in Alhambra. Well to my surprise there is a cool place next door called Monty's that sells chicken and waffles and steak sandwiches and other stuff. I'm always looking to support local businesses so we decided to go in. Cute little place! We ordered an All American streak sandwich with provolone. It was really good! And the best part was the warm greeting when we walked in and the friendly good bye. A sweet lady even asked us if we wanted water because it was a hot day. I love good customer service and genuine friendliness. I'm glad I found this place we will be back to try other items. The sandwich was delicious! We are happy to support!
