What a nice find. Dinner before the show at CBT. Unbelievable flavor in a simple Chicken Parmesan dish. Marinara sauce was jam packed with flavor, chicken was cooked perfectly, and the mozzarella was very creamy and delicious. Wild Berry s and gelato dessert was fresh and flavorful. Service was great. The server was always present and attentive.

My boyfriend and I wanted to try a new restaurant for date night. After reading lots of great reviews, we gave Monticello a try. We agreed that the entire experience was a 10/10! We sat outside. The outdoor seating area is small and cozy without being crowded. The food was incredible. I had the rigatoni with sausage and broccoli rabe and he had chicken parm. I brought a bottle of wine, and we had the lava cake dessert. (It was amazing.) I’m not exaggerating… I think this is my new favorite restaurant. We will be back!
