"We had an excellent dinner! It’s important to book a table beforehand, as the restaurant is very popular and small. Service was perfect, so nice, friendly and helpful - everyone seemed happy to be working there, it reflects in how they treat clients so well. Food was delicious. Tried the entrecôte with fries, so good! Super recommended."

"Monte‘s Bistro is a small restaurant with a cozy ambience and casual atmosphere, serving excellent meat and seafood. The waiters were warm, welcoming, and had a naturally calming presence. We visited it three times during our stay. I would advise to make a reservation beforehand, as seating is limited.
I can recommend it to anyone looking to dine in a relaxed atmosphere and try a wide variety of meat and seafood specialities.
For Tapas, the crunchy Fritto Misto was exceptional. Fans of Sushi will love the Asian Tuna Tartar. Classics, such as a ham and cheese platter with olives are also served.
For Mains, I can recommend the Quesadillas, Entrecôte with Cafe de Paris sauce and the burgers. The Cafe de Paris sauce was creamy and went great together with the fries.
For desserts, we tried the Creme Brûlée and the cookie cake, both were excellent. The cookie cake reminded of Tiramisu and was topped with biscuit crumbs. Port wines and liquor are also served."
