Monti’s is amazing. I appreciate the staffs and managers kindness to me even though I have autism and their food is amazing and really good. Owner Jennifer and James and David is very nice. The restaurant is in good condition. Philly cheesesteak is delicious. Must come back. 10/10.

I drove an 1.5 hours to try Philly, i was disappointed. Bun was stale, cheese was not as healthy a portion as beef. Beef was Salty and steamed instead of carmelized and juicy. I ordered 6 classics and i regret spending $150. If I return, I will order one sandwich and eat it there to give a fair assessment. I believe when they try to do multiple sandwiches the beef gets cooked differently. I’ve been to Philadelphia to Pats and Gino’s and this sandwich isn’t close. I will say, though the portion of beef on the sandwich is very generous. It just wasn’t very good.

My friend lives down the street and suggested this place after spending a great night at the kill Tony comedy show. We got the original Philly work loaded fries and it was delicious. My friends order wings and they were good too!!! They also had my favorite sour bear from victory brewing sour monkey. We were the last people in the place and the bartender Joe was nice!

These cheesesteaks are healing and the staff is great. The food can be pricey but that's everywhere, and anything you order can be stretched to multiple meals.

I lived in Philly for a bit, so I know that authentic cheese steaks are hard to find outside of Philly, but these guys are the exception. They load steak and cheese on Amoroso rolls they get shipped in from Philly. Great beer selection/bar atmosphere too. Very solid, will be going back

I asked for hot peppers and they did not give them to me. Messed up my dinner
Monti's is just okay to me. Honestly the best part is their bread it was nice and soft and had a nice chew to it other then that it's just meh to me. I got the original cheese steak with cheese sauce I asked for extra cheese. The steak itself wasn't dry but very bland and tasteless. It comes with side of French fries that are less then an handful and cold so personally not worth the $15 to me.

Waited for a Super Bowl order for 90 minutes after the committed time a couple years ago.
Finally tried again using THEIR app and parts of the order is missing and no way to contact them. Phone number directs you to the third party, Uber, but can’t contact them because I used the Monti app.
Find another place that values customer service.

Absolutely delicious Philly cheesesteaks — juicy, flavorful, and perfectly cheesy! The bread is always fresh and the portions are generous. Friendly service and a true Lincoln Square favorite. You can really taste the love in every bite!

Had an amazing time here.
Initially I was just going on a walk in the neighborhood, no real destination in mind.
Saw they had Uber eats delivery stickers outside so I wanted to pop in to see what's up.
It was a Monday so they had improv open mic night for comedy and it also happened to be happy hour.
I'm a sucker for chicken wings and they were another pleasant surprise in the neighborhood.
I had to try the buffalo sauce since that's my go-to to see how bar wings stand up and also the caribbean jerk because that peaked my interest.
Price was amazing, service was top tier, and another worker there really stood out for letting me try their rocky sauce as well as pepper sauce for wings.
The buffalo on its own is good but if you get it with the pepper sauce making it the 'Rocky' sauce that would be my spicy recommendation.
The caribbean jerk had a great balance of sweet with heat.
I'll have to become a regular here while the weather is still good enough for walking over.
The stand up open mic was a fun time. I liked how it was comedians working on polishing their act(s) so it was a chance to see greatness in progress.
5/5 would go back again and it's a fun bar with plenty of beer and drink options.
I think Tuesday is trivia night for those interested.
I can't wait to try more of their sauces as well as the Philly Cheesesteak I saw from others photos.
The only place to get authentic steaks!
