Took the family of 11. Everyone had a wonderful meal and a great time. The service and food were great. Great place for a single or a group and they do quite a carry out business as well.Dietary restrictions: There are gluten free options.Kid-friendliness: A nice selection of pasta and pizza as well as chicken tenders. My granddaughter loved the cheese ravioli.Wheelchair accessibility: At least 2 spots right outside the door.

Our meal here is always delicious! Dan and Kellie offer some traditional Italian dishes along with a variety of beverages to compliment any meal. The atmosphere is friendly, cozy, and parties can easily carry on a conversation. Their wait staff is always attentive and helpful. If you catch Bob Rizzo’s live performance, you have a perfect experience!

BEWARE stay far away from Monte Carlo Italian Kitchen! Food took over an hour and a half, waitress took forever to come back around for refills on our drinks and when we finally received our food nothing was warm, food was missing including my 9 years old meal we received our check before my son received his food! I understand we had a party of (16) but restaurant was a ghost town! 3 people in my group ordered fettuccine Alfredo and all said it had a funny texture, was undercooked and bland. Meatballs were mushy and the salad came with only lettuce no extra toppings.Our party had extra charges on our bill that said “card usage fee” when some of the party was paying with cash! When bringing it to the owners attention she was very rude about everything and discriminated us! Was told by the manger “I knew y’all wasn’t going to tip well when you walked in” so basically we got bad service and charged “extra fees” because of how we look!! The management and food here are horrible!

This place was incredibly disgusting! The food was disgusting, there was hair in my food and when I very politely brought it to the manger’s attention he got an attitude with me and was very rude. When talking to a friend about my experience here, he told me he also had a horrible experience there, rather than there being hair in his food, there was a ROACH!!! I will never eat here again! ??Edit: Just seen where the owner went into “damage control” and is now calling me a liar on top of my already horrible experience. I was there with ONE friend, NOT a group and the cops were never called on us considering we did nothing wrong. Nice try though “owner”

I have only been once but it was a ghost town. The wait staff and owner/manager where hanging out at a table for most of the time while I was there.The service was ok. I sat at the bar and the bartender was friendly. Don't remember his name but he was always on his phone.I started with the Meatball appetizer from the happy hour menu. The food came out rather quick. The meatballs were good but the sauce seemed to sour like they used pizza sauce vs marinara or add to much tomato paste to their sauce. The sauce was also not very warm. The ricotta was ice cold.I then shared happy hour Fried Mushrooms, Garlic Bread, and the Sausage and Peppers. Again, these came flying out of the kitchen. The Garlic Bread was pretty good! The " house made sausage" was very dry and bell peppers that came with the dish were flavorless. Would have really like some kind of Italian seasoning flavor on them. My favorite part of the Sausage and Pepper dish was the pickled Banana peppers. The fried Mushrooms were pretty good.For how slow the restaurant seemed they sure pumped out meh food. I wish they would have used their free time to work on recipes or test out new specials. I can't say I would recommend it, but hope they find their passion for the business.

We went pretty late on a Friday and it was not very busy. The food was great. Very rustic, home style, lasagna and ravioli. The server was very nice and attentive.

I ordered the chicken Parmesan for dinner and the chicken was extremely soggy and tasted like a damp paper towel. And the salad was warm, which is one of my biggest pet peeves, and had hardly any toppings.
