What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Moni's Pasta & Pizza is praised for its authentic, homemade-style Italian cuisine, generous portions, and warm, old-school atmosphere. Many diners highlight the delicious pizzas, pastas like Rigatoni vodka, and the friendly service. However, some reviews mention issues with saltiness or greasiness in specific dishes, and one user found the fried calamari to be tasteless.
"First time dining in and the atmosphere itself said it all for me. Very nice restaurant at the end of shopping center! Kind of old school atmosphere with old school service. Wonderful wait staff along with whom I am guessing is either the manager or owner going around greeting and talking to the customers. We had the Lasagna, salad and egg plant parmesan and all of the food was PERFECT! Just as important, the price.....we got 2 excellent meals, with leftovers, for $30. If you like Italian food, you have to give Moni's a try. Guaranteed you will want to go back!!"

"What a great find! We’re from out of town and wanted a place to feed the kids but also a place with good food. Mono’s does not disappoint! The atmosphere is exactly what you’d expect from a neighborhood Italian restaurant. The homemade rolls are delicious. Hubby and son shared a shrimp scampi. Me and the girls ordered a supreme pizza. OMGoodness- this place is phenomenal! A local told me that she and her family have been coming here for 30 years! This will definitely be a stop for us next time we are traveling through Arlington."

"I've been here about four times and I always leave happy. The food is delicious, it feels very homemade, the portions are very generous, and the service and location are very warm. My favorite is the pasta Rigatoni vodka ❤️"
