    Kate was the best server with great recommendations. The vibe was amazing inside. Food was even more delicious, seasonal salmon couscous, with Brussels sprouts and squash all complimented each other and I left nothing behind. Pretzel bites with fondue was also so wonderful, 10/10 on my top list when I come back to Salt Lake City.

    The food was amazing! The staff did an amazing job making my wife’s birthday extra special for her. They had us in a quiet back corner as requested and were so kind and supportive to our younger kids as they were learning proper etiquette for nicer restaurants.

    It was an amazing experience, with the most beautiful food I've ever eaten. Every single dish is a work of art. I'm super proud to have Monte as the first Michilen Star in our state, virtually in my back yard. The food tastes as wonderful as I looks. The service is very on point and the staff makes you feel very welcomed. We will definitely be dining at Monte again. You should book a table
