Monica's Reviews
Huge selection of delicious food. Lovely presentation of our meals. Service was excellent!
We have been going to Monica's over the years as we enjoyed 'a step above' restaurant. We were so disappointed in the ambiance and food the last trip. First, the wait staff looked like they were working at a roadway bar, oversized tshirts and ripped jeans. I always thought this restaurant was a step above that. The asparagus was underdone and TOUGH plus the mashed potatoes tasted old. What has happened? I understand off nights but this was like you simply don't care anymore. Disappointed.
First time coming to this lovely place! Definitely recommend and will be back again ❤️

Monica's is a charming restaurant known for its delicious food and attentive service. The baked ziti is cooked to perfection, and the spaghetti offers a savory, homemade taste. Customers often enjoy the friendly atmosphere and the cozy setting, whether dining in or taking out. The restaurant features a variety of tasty dishes, including excellent French onion soup and Reuben sandwiches, with mild kraut that complements the corned beef perfectly. The wait staff, like RJ, are attentive and friendly, making sure guests have a great experience. The atmosphere has a cool vibe, with 40s and 50s style music playing softly in the background, allowing for easy conversation. Recent visitors also appreciated the quality of the lasagna and the ribeye steak, which was prepared perfectly. Some dishes, like the Alfredo pasta and Bloody Mary, could use a dash of nutmeg or Worcestershire sauce to add extra flavor. Overall, Monica's remains a favorite spot for families and date nights, offering a cozy atmosphere and tasty dishes that keep customers coming back for more.
