The food tasted good and had a good-sized portion. These rice ad atmosphere were stellar. Will definitely eat at Monte's again.

Monte's has excellent Corned Beef Hash and Eggs Benedict. There is a lot of history on the walls. I love the atmosphere. The owner is a gem. Go get some breakfast! This is the place.

This is one of those places you have to experience to fully appreciate. Cozy atmosphere, very kind staff. It was quite enjoyable. We sat at the bar, right next to the chef. He was very outgoing and it was entertaining watching him work and deliver orders while he cooked.

A quaint little diner just minutes from U.S., Canadian ports of Entry. The staff and owner were great and eager to to provide a great dining experience. It might be a small diner but the atmosphere is large here. If in the area do yourselves a favor and try this diner out, you won't be disappointed.

They couldn't get my breakfast order right the way I asked. The food was drenched in grease. I honestly couldn't even eat it it was really gross. The cooks looked dirty, like a dirty cigarette smoking drunk cooking your food. This was last year. I know my experience was so bad that I would never consider going back even if I was starving. Every time I pass by the restaurant, I cringe. All I can say is gross, gross, gross, and more gross. Sorry for a bad review, but if I'm never willing to eat at your restaurant again, it was pretty bad. I'm an avid traveler and diner. I know food. Maybe if you clean it up a bit. The restaurant was a bit grimey, too. It needs a deep clean. I see the restaurant has a lot of good reviews. Either the owner has lots of friends or these people don't know what decent food is. Because it doesn't make sense. I would never give a bad review for no reason. Maybe the day I went, the cook had a hangover, or these people are just use to eating greasy slop.

Wow if I can tell you what an amazing experience it was to see one man cooking all of the restaurants food. This place was so well, and tasty. The menu was short, and straight forward. The server was so kind. He even knew Spanish. Love that! The food was so good I ordered two plates of the same thing ( pancakes and veggie omlet).

Sean was an excellent server: courteous, efficient, charming. Breakfast was so good yesterday that we are going back today.

My husband and I came to Monte's because of the great reviews, and returned twice because of the excellent coffee, breakfast and people there (not only the cooks and server, but the friendly customers as well)! We had omelets, over medium eggs, sausage, bacon, waffle, biscuit, homestyle potatoes, French toast, etc., and absolutely everything was delicious. We had a view from this historic building below to train tracks and the marina and north toward the Peace Arch at the Canadian border. The vibe of the place was perfect: friendly, good music, entertaining decor, even some light-hearted banter, just like you'd get with good friends and family. The third visit we had was especially fun: since the restaurant is small, the server asked if one of the customers could share our table. Yes! We sat with one of the regulars (hi, John, here's your 2 cents!), and learned about his family and history in the area as well. Just a really good time. We highly recommend going to Monte's!

I've made biscuits and gravy really well for 40 years. Everyone loves them. When I ordered them from Monty's Just a Bite, my head was spinning!!! Absolutely the best ever!! The place was packed and rightfully so. We sat at the counter where the customers were just as friendly!
Great little diner! I am a vegetarian so I ordered toast and potatoes with peppers. Amazingggg potatoes!!!

This breakfast spot is my new favorite in Whatcom County. Monte and his staff are very friendly and make some amazing food. I always gauge a breakfast spot off their corned beef and hash and they have one of the best I have had. I highly recommend giving this place a try if you are in Blaine!
