Do you like ice cold pizza? Then order delivery from here. I live literally 11 minutes from this place and the pizza arrives not just cold but congealed and stale. Heating it up in the oven helps but it’s just a sad pizza. And somehow they manage to mess up your order! Really incredible how much this place has gone downhill. Used to be a go-to but the last few times have been trash.
The service was absolutely horrible. We were told to sit down at an available table after standing and waiting to be greeted; once we sat down we were told that our table was being held for parties of 4. There were no tables smaller in the restaurant so where were we supposed to sit? After the waiter realized she let us stay where we were first seated. We are very observant individuals so we noticed several guest coming in a sitting down, one pair of guest right next to us. Our order was taken prior to the party next to use, roughly 10 minutes before, yet they received food and drinks before we even received out drinks. The waiter who took our order was nowhere to be found. We had to ask another individual when our drinks were coming out and I’m assuming she then placed the actual order. The food was salty and the appetizers were lukewarm. We’ve been to this place about 3 times, but this occasion was very disappointing.
Ordered via ubereats, but the Margherita pizza was very good. The star might very well be the maple chipotle wings though. While I did yearn for some more heat, there wasn't a noticeable chipotle flavor, the wings are almost certainly in the top of my list. Crispy, meaty, and sticky with the maple based sauce.Delicious food, worth giving a try!
The service was great!! It's funny how you miss good service until you actually get a fun, informative and friendly person waiting on you... Oh and the food was good too!! My Shrimp fra Diavlo was super spicy and pasta was cooked perfectly!
So delicious. I've been eating ricotta on my pasta my whole life and it has never occurred to me to cover it in honey and eat it with some amazing focaccia crisps. Had the ceasar salad with shrimp, big portion super well seasoned shrimp, very flavorful. Staff are sweet and helpful. Come here, you're welcome!
Monte’s is one of my favorite places to eat in The Bronx. I’ve been here multiple times because the food and service is great.I ALWAYS get the focaccia bread with ricotta cheese & honey as well as the mozerella wedges ?The pizzas are delicious and their pesto pasta is to die for! I would also like to note that this is the only place where I look forward to getting chicken with the pasta because it’s always fresh and tasty!I definitely recommend ?
Great place to eat . Food is delicious. Drinks are excellent and pizza is to die for.. I had the j*** pizza definitely a bit spicy but tasty. Ambiance is great. Staff is very friendly and attentive
Inconsistent, sometimes it’s good sometimes it’s really bad,this time there was hair on my pizza.looks like it was in the dough, I still ate it cause I didn’t know lol but yeah that’s probably it for me.also just for context this is my plate and yes I understand the assumption is that it could be my mistake however I’m crazy and washed and dried this plate and inspected it prior to serving myself this pizza.I am 100% sure there was no hair on this plate.
Excellent restaurant! Food was amazing from top to bottom. We started with the maple chipotle wings, which were plump with lots of chicken on each wing. Then got the j*** chicken pizza and the pesto pie, both unreal in the delicious perfectly cooked crust. We also had a Caesar salad, which was fresh with the perfect amount of tasty dressing topped with focaccia croutons. Our server was friendly and attentive. The busboy was helpful and friendly. All in all, A++ meal. Can't wait to go back!
The pizza is excellent. Yes..it is so well made and taste delicious. I went to get a slice . Ended up with 2 sicilians and a slice.Everything was so good. The place was very clean . I would definitely recommend and will be back soon..

Great food, friendly staff, wait for the food was long but worth it.
I normally do not leave reviews online, but feel pretty strong about this, so here it goes. I love supporting local businesses in my hometown area of the South Bronx, and will go out of my way to support the business in any way I can. BUT… don’t try to rip me off with substandard food. Whenever I find a new Italian restaurant I always get the Chx Parm because that is the simplest dish you can make and can rarely screw it up. This place did just that. The chx was hard to chew on, it had a rubbery feel and was very tough to swallow. I think the chx was old, because it’s color on the inside was 50 shades of grey. I just have not had such a bad experience before. Sorry if my message offends but I was thoroughly disappointed with my meal. Hope you guys take this in stride and can fix it for future patrons. Good luck.
Great Food And Great Service The Ladies Was Nice Aswell Beautiful Restaurant I Will Come By again ?❤
THE PLACE IS AMAZINGTHE STAFFTHE VIBESTHE FOODI GET DRUNK LOVE IT
My boyfriend and I came here on a whim and fell in love. The waiter Liz was super sweet, informative & especially attentive as we were the only ones outside because of our dog. Firstly you ABSOLUTELY MUST get the Focaccia Basket as an appetizer. I mean, it is to die for. Secondly, the drinks are strong! Which is great & the food was just amazingggg all around. I got the Honey BBQ wings with the Margarita Pizza & my boyfriend had the salmon & mashed potatoes. Portions & seasoning were delicious. Honestly I couldn’t have had a better experience, everything was great. Food, atmosphere & service. We 10/10 recommend. Will definitely be back. Lastly, Edward the manager was very kind. The staff even brought water out for my dog. I love it here. It’s a must.
