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!

I've never been overly impressed with anything here. The food is just okay, and the prices are more than what I would spend given it just being "okay". It's definitely not a regular spot that I go to often in the neighborhood... more of a once in awhile when visitors come that are in the mood for a sit down pizza spot.

The pizza selection here is creative and great. This is me and my bestfriends spot! Wish it was open everyday. The j*** chicken pizza is delicious and has a good kick so be cautious if you can't handle spice.

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 ?

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.

I had forgotten what great food had tasted like before stepping foot in this place. The pizza alone makes me contemplate moving to NYC. We had a group of 3 and were able to split 2 pizzas and a salad. It was very delicious. The food was super satisfying and fulfilling without the feeling of over indulgent. We ordered a focaccia bread appetizer and the ricotta and honey mix along with the bread was an sensational combo. The service was phenomenal and super friendly and attentive. This place is a hidden gem and a must-visit.

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!

As soon as I walked in I smelled so much garlic I knew I was in the right place I ordered the Mott Haven drink and it was so good. I should have gotten 3. Kept it simple with a pep pizza and the garlic knots. Those knots were to die for. I kept the leftovers and had them for breakfast since I didn't want to take it on the plane ride. Definitely bringing my Husband back.
