What a throw back. $6 drinks. $10 bar pie. If I lived in the area I'd come in once a week. This is the pizza Dave Portnoy gave a 10. Check it out and decide for yourself!

Be careful of what you wish for. This place is a Lynn classic. I grew up in the 50’s and 60’s getting pizza and eating here. This is as basic as it gets. Only four stars because if you’re looking for gourmet, stay away. If you want basic red sauce fare and really good “bar pizza, this is your place.
CASH ONLY. ATM onsite.
If you want to eat like a local, come here for Italian and pizza. Go to Dubes in Salem if you want seafood
If you’re from out of town and you have doubts when you pull up to either place, just trust me.

Combo fried seafood, shrimp, fish, scallops, w/ fries. Food was quite good today, cooked just right, portions also good. HOWEVER It really 😮 surprised me that they charge Xtra for more starter ($0.50) Waiter was polite and explained that was in the computer & he cannot adjust this issue. I am hoping that Monte's will graciously change that (extra charge) policy by the next tyme I drop in for a meal. My other favorite seafood spot in Salem is closed till Spring. Side note, Clam Shack does NOT charge for Xtra condiments such as starter, etc, etc. .

Honestly don’t know how this place has good reviews. Went with a couple friends after hearing about it from food critics raving about the pizza but was severely disappointed. The pizza tasted the same as the ones you get frozen from the store….we got the Monte’s special pie which consisted of “salami” which was basically canned ham cubes. That same night all of us got sick and started feeling nauseous, I ended up throwing up at 1am. Never again omg

A classic. Super unique crust and flavor. The sweet cherry pepper is the secret best topping. Cheese pizza can be a little plain so get a topping or add a lot of parm and red pepper
This was cash only and the pizza was okay ($11 for a small pizza). It seemed like it was made in a pan based on the indent on the bottom and there wasn't much char. Overall I'd say the pizza was okay not great and the place was also mostly empty when going there. It's not a bad place however I don't think that it is the best pizza I have ever had before.
Everyone was very nice. food sucked.
Came to try the pizza that a friend recommended & braggs on. Not a big establishment, I love pizza so why not try something different while visiting. For starters the salad was basic nothing spcial. It looked like it came straight out the bag and one plum tomato and couple rings of onion. The homemade dressing was flavorless & wattered down. Tried the moscow mule, it was not good at all! Tried the captain morgan with diet coke tasted better than the first drink. For food I ordered a pepperoni and cheese pizza with extra pizza sauce. I wanted to add mushrooms but they use canned vs fresh. My friend ordered the veal parmasean with spaghetti noodles. When the pizza arrived, the crust was near burnt. The sauce didn't really have a flavor. The ingredients didn't taste fresh, more on the cheap side. Therefore, it tasted really cheap. Overall, it was edible not the best pizza. I've had way better at other establishments in Boston. This would not be my first choice in the future. Save your money and time. The waitress barely checked on us once. She was stand-offish, it wasn't busy at all so there's no excuse.
