Always enjoy the nights we can make it to dinner here. The staff is friendly and as long time patrons, we know many of the staff. Food is always excellent, fresh and hot. This visit nothing caught my interest on the specials so I was able to try a regular menu item I had not tried before. The pork cutlet, very well prepared and and the side of pasta and vegetables never disappoints.

Sublime meal ... shrimp scampi for me, pasta with seafood for him, and shared wilted spinach salad. A nice glass of red wine for each of us.

Rene, Marcos, and your team were excellent last night! We had such a great time celebrating my birthday and the Service was exceptional as always. And I'm true. The grateful for finding this restaurant and having the best food of my Life! Definitely better than driving into San Francisco. Thank you so much, Team!

While Montecatini has not been the same since Stephen Patrick, longtime maitre d' and hospitality guru, left, the food continues to be superior, the service very consistently very good to excellent, and the overall experience wonderful.

Continues to be one of our all time favorites. We love everything on the menu; the bolognese was amazing as was the chicken and eggplant parm. The staff was wonderful. It is very noisy, but not so much to keep us away!

Staff is very friendly and attentive. Quite noisy can be hard to hear conversation. Overall a fun place with great food.

Best bolognese sauce I've had in years and the gnocchi it was served with was cooked perfectly. A great place with great service. Our first visit and we will be back.

I celebrated my 23rd birthday here and they put little confetti on the table we reserved. It was a small gesture but it made me feel extra special :) It was a wonderful experience and the staff were so nice and welcoming. I highly recommend for anyone celebrating anything special!!

Great experience. Had the New York steak special with friends. Celebrated their bdays. Waitress was fantastic. Dessert was great too. Will be back.

Really nice variety of dishes, and very upscale. The flavors were excellent. Service was very good; attentive but not overly so. The place is smaller than I expected, and there's no separation of the bar from the dining room, so it was a little noisy( could've just been that one obnoxious woman's alcohol- induced laugh). The menu dictates a five dining level, but overall the ambience feels like it could up its game. We were there for our anniversary, and they made every effort to accommodate my requests online, and spread heart- shaped confetti on our table. A nice touch. Overall very accommodating, good food, and we really enjoyed. Would still highly recommend.

It is such a treat to eat at Montecatini's. The food is always so delicious and their cocktails are so satisfying. The servers are always so attentive and they make sure that you are getting the service you expect. It's also nice to see the owners interact with the customers and get feedback from one's dining experience. With that said, my wife and I celebrate our anniversary there every year and we leave just as happy as when we arrived! Thank you Montecatini for your outstanding service and delicious food. See you soon!

This restaurant never fails! The food, the service and the ambiance were just perfect! WE were celebrating our anniversary and from the time we walked in and were greeted with: "Happy Anniversary" to the complimentary tiramisu it was a wonderful evening.

I can honestly say it exceeded all expectations. The cioppino, in particular, was absolutely delicious—rich, flavorful, and brimming with fresh, perfectly cooked seafood. It had just the right balance of spice and depth in the broth, making every bite unforgettable. The chicken piccata was just as impressive. The chicken was tender, the lemon-caper sauce was bright and tangy without being overpowering. This is great spot for both a casual dinner or a special night out. If you're a fan of Italian cuisine—especially seafood—this place is a must-visit.

Our first time at the restaurant and it was excellent. The place was hoping for a Wednesday night in early October but dinner flowed well, the food was excellent, good wine list by the glass and very relaxed and friendly crowd.

I love Montecatini. But, the noise level was too much and there were some empty tables. Wish they could do something about it. We really couldn't carry on a conversation.
