My husband and I go here about once a month, and I'm pretty sure it's recently changed ownership recently. Last weekend I had their special, crab cakes benedict and added a side of their homemade hash. The hash is some of the best I've had. I am SUPER picky about crabcakes and hollandaise but they did both super well. Crab cakes were crab, not bread filler grossness, and the hollandaise was fresh and light (it's not supposed to look like velveta). We've gone there for wings and fries a few times, also super impressive. Wings were crispy. Bloody mary's are great too. A few things they could improve on is when we ordered mimosas, they came in pint glasses on ice. Huh? That's not a mimosa. And they don't have iced coffee. Sinful in the summer as far as I'm concerned. I think we'd go there more if we liked the general atmosphere and ambiance more. It doesn't have a feel to it, but the food keeps us coming back.
Review Source:Monty's is a great change from the over abundance of chain resturaunts in Williston. We were fortunate to visit on a nice warm spring night and took advantage of the outside patio.
Food was good, nothing to write home about, but I would return for another visit. We started with mussels, which were cooked well. Dinner was a Laplatte River Angus burger and fries. Burger was good, fries were run of the mill.
Overall a good place for a burger and beer (excellent local beer selection).
My friend and I stopped in for Sunday brunch and were extremely let down. The eggs in my Traditional Benedict were cooked incorrectly. What they called poached eggs were essentially hardboiled. I ate one because I was famished and left the other on my plate along with the overly spiced hash browns. These hash browns were so salty they were inedible. It wasn't just salt, it was as if they accidentally added the entire bottle of Mrs. Dash and served them anyway.
It was a terrible experience and I will not go back for brunch.
My wife and I came here probably about a year ago. Â I believe it was on a weekend probably around 7 or so. Â The place was packed, and there was very limited seating, and the table we recieved was right near the entrance in an awkwardly place area next to support beam. Â It took the waiter about 5 minutes to get to our table and then after ordering almost an hour to get our food (apparently the dish I ordered had been dropped on the floor after being finished so it had to be remade).
So why did I give Monty's a 4/5?  A. The service, though slow, was fantastic, they were very apologetic about wait and even more apologetic about the cramped space in which we were seated  B. The food was amazing, I had the fish and chips, which was cooked to perfection even after having to be remade. Â
I will come here again, maybe on a less busy evening.
Went here a few weeks back before seeing a movie in Williston. Â This is a place I had wanted to try for awhile based on the good reviews. Â Sadly, I was pretty disappointed. Â On the strength of the other reviews, I made sure to order the chipotle sweet potato soup. Â The flavor was good, but it was WAY too rich. Â It was hard to even eat a cup of it because I felt like I was eating a cup of heavy cream. Â I also had a cup of mac and cheese. Â It was like penne in alfredo sauce, boring, bland and hard to eat. Â Even the salad with house made dressing was boring. Â I can make a maple balsamic vinaigrette that tastes way better than theirs. Â My partner had the pork calzone, which was also off. Â The dough was more like an egg roll dough than what you get in normal Italian calzones. Â We were very disappointed.
Review Source:Ate out at Monty's for the first time last week. We were promptly seated, the service was excellent and the food was good for a great price. The chipotle-sweet potato soup was absolutely fantastic.
There was live music playing in the bar area. The singer wasn't really to my preference, but they have a very comfortable dining area separate from the bar/music area so it was not an issue.
The atmosphere was very comfortable and would be suitable for a date, a group, or a family outing. I am definitely looking forward to going back.
We spent a very pleasant evening at Monty's this weekend. Â We met friends at the bar, found a comfortable booth and enjoyed a yummy meal. Â There is live jazz in the background on Sunday nights which added greatly to the ambiance. Â It is a nice, casual location.
I would give them a star on their chipolte sweet potato soup alone. Â I am a sucker for anything sweet potato but the chipotle gave it a nice heat with the right amount of kick. Â Great start to the meal! Â We also split a solid hummus platter and everyone who ordered a salad to start said they were good. Â
My entre was fabulous - Portobello Napoleon with goat cheese, onion, tomato on top of some tasty polenta. Â Everyone was happy with their entres - pork quesadillas and seafood risotto. Â No complaints at all!
Service was just right.
Monty's was named after the owners' faithful Golden Retriever who was growing old at the time they were opening the restaurant.... sweet story.
I'll definitely be back next time I am in the area.
I had been meaning to stop in at Monty's since they first opened but never really had the opportunity out there in Williston. Â Recently I've been there a couple of times and was pleased with just about everything there. Â The ribs, soups and even the salads (I've had the beet salad twice) are superb. Â Not a bad selection of beers. Â I was a bit bummed to see they serve Guiness stout in the little "mini" stout glasses (not full pints). Â Guiness deserves a nice big handful of black foamy goodness, not a sippy cup. Â I also am a bit off put by the prices, it's not your typical bar fare pricing but the food is quite good.
They have a nice little patio section outdoors and live music often. Â If you're hungry and are driving down rte 2, they are worth a stop.
What a charming place with ambiance galore! We were looking for a casual, non-touristy place outside of Burlington and found it. The flatbreads were great with a slight sea salt taste. The Mac & Cheese is to die for... and the overall experience is an A! The chef even came out to say hi TWICE!
Review Source:Went here while visiting my girlfriend during Vermont restaurant week, two of her friends invited us out to dinner and i was def excited to eat at a place that felt like it was "home style comfort food" Walked in on the bar side but then went to the restaurant side and promptly seated, they had 3 courses for i believe $35 which was wonderful. I do not remember everyone's exact orders but i'll just re cap what i do remember seeing people eat plus my own food.
The grilled chicken wings seemed to be juicy, tender, spicy but very good, thai spareribs were devoured i was told they were cooked perfectly with a lot of flavor exploding all over the place, pretty sure my girlfriend got the Maine mussels and absolutely loved them and for dessert i got the chocolate chip cookies and ice cream and it was very sweet and just damn good. The only problem was i couldn't finish it because i had so much food in me already but get that, also they have this dessert it has plenty of peanut butter to it, i don't know what its called but the only way to describe it is a flaky pastry with a peanut butter center that melts in your mouth it was incredible, my girlfriend ordered that and boy do i wish i had what she had.
The dish that did it for me though had to be the Monty Burger, for a burger up in New England to rival the burgers down in NYC where i'm from is just unreal. I'm a big burger guy, nothing like a well cooked and spiced/seasoned medium rare burger with the juices and flavor oozing out of it during every bite. The house mustard, cheddar cheese, and the Laplatte River Angus Farm grade beef that they used was high quality, you could tell the chef knows his stuff just from that burger right there. Also the fries were just the icing on the cake, i think they sprinkled with truffle or maybe i'm losing my mind and it was just parsley, nonetheless this place IS A DEF MUST WHEN YOUR IN VERMONT!!! If you want to eat like a king for a decent price this is your place
p.s.- The executive chef came out and spoke to us TWICE! Asked us if we liked the food and how was everything twice, really nice guy, chatted it up with us a bit, humble, cool, and a great chef, some big city is gonna steal him away soon enjoy him now while you can VT foodies.
Recently found out about this place. A little tricky to spot at night. Found the staff and ambiance very enjoyable and laid back. We were not rushed at all. Great beer and wine choices for such a small place.
I had the BEST soup to start (sweet potato chipolte) and good mussels for my meal. The chef even came out (on a Saturday) to ask us how the meal was and he offered me a nice tip on how to make my soups better!
We were very excited to try the Smores for dessert which was unique although slightly disappointing with such a small amount of graham cracker.
Overall a great place to check out and enjoy a nice dinner or just stop in at the bar and have a great microbrew!
