Belmontes Ristorante offers fresh and delicious meals with perfectly prepared entrees. The restaurant provides a lovely view by the window and attentive service when it's not crowded. Recent visits have included issues like fishy clams, missing menu items, and below-par service, but the restaurant remains a popular spot for those seeking a tasty meal. The menu features Italian-American dishes, with favorites like the shrimp with Capellini and tuna, and the flounder oreganoto. The restaurant has a cozy, neighborhood feel, not pretentious, with friendly and professional staff. The bread served with "real" olive oil is appreciated, and many dishes offer generous portions suitable for take-home. The atmosphere is intimate and casual, making it a great place to enjoy a meal.
The restaurant is especially busy on half-price pasta nights, Monday and Thursday, so reservations or eating late are recommended. Customers have praised the amazing quiet ambiance, great service, and delicious food, including tender veal, an out-of-this-world stuffed pork chop, and a must-try lemon cake for dessert. The chef has had some off nights, with tough and overcooked chicken, but the restaurant remains a popular choice, with the staff removing the issue from the bill and customers eager to give it another try.
