Il Monello is a neighborhood restaurant that consistently delivers delicious food and great service. The restaurant offers a wide selection of liquor and a menu that features expertly prepared dishes. The wait staff is attentive and unobtrusive, providing excellent service without hovering. The atmosphere is cozy and intimate, reminiscent of a private club, with sparkly white tablecloths adding to its charm. The menu highlights include pasta dishes, appetizers, and desserts, all of which are carefully prepared to meet the diner's expectations. The standout meal is the Chicken Parmigiana, praised as the best by many visitors, alongside other flavorful options like Fettuccine and Branzino. Appetizers such as baked clams, fried calamari, oysters, and raviolis are also highly recommended. The staff is knowledgeable and quick to accommodate substitutions, making each dining experience personal. Drinks are poured generously, with a complimentary Vin Santo to accompany desserts like Tiramisu, which has been noted as the best by many. While the sorbet is sourced from an external supplier, Il Monello remains a favorite for its warm ambiance and attention to detail. Every visit feels special, and the attentive staff makes it a perfect place for a satisfying dining experience, whether for a quiet lunch or a larger gathering.
