Monte Carlo

Had a wonderful experience at Monte Carlo! The staff were helpful and patient. The atmosphere was comfortable yet lively. Everyone enjoyed the food and cocktails! French 75 and Blood Orange Martini were tasty. LOVED the filet. The coleslaw was so good. And as always, the chicken wings are highly recommended!

Had this spot after a long day on set and it was a smooth vibe. We rode scooters from our hotel over and it was a cool experience to view Minneapolis while on our way here.The service was really nice, even noticed how tired we were because we weren't speaking much, but told us that we were a nice and easy table for the night.The food wasn't amazing, but definitely got the job done. It was bar food, so there's not much to be expected, hence the 3 star review.Probably won't ever be back, but if you go, get the wings!

First restaurant I dined at when I moved to the neighborhood and I have enjoyed getting to know the staff since . Always fantastic service from Nate at the bar ! I appreciate his attention to guests and making the experience feel like a welcomed back friend for all . Well done ! Side note , the chowder is divine .

A good place to celebrate a special event or even have a business meeting. Food is great, service is impeccable, and the decor mixes modern at the bar and traditional at the dining area. It's certainly worth a try if not for the food at least the cocktails! Selection of desserts is limited but tasty! Save room and have a nice dessert wine at the end!

Visited the Monte Carlo for a work dinner! Loved the vintage vibes. Felt like an old hotel restaurant. Great bar area, loads of seating but felt cozy. I had the sirloin and the flavor was perfect. We also shared a sampler of appetizer and the wings and green beans were my favorite. Crispy, seasoned coating on the wings and a delightful caramelized onion sauce on the green beans. I had the blood orange martini, which did not disappoint. Staff were super friendly and attentive and desert was literally and figuratively icing on the cake with the multi-layered chocolate cake served with a side of ice cream. The outdoor space looked super cute as well and the area surrounding the restaurant looked fun and plenty of little shops and places to be discovered right amidst the downtown center of Minneapolis.

Enjoyed a beautiful MN spring day on their patio- shared the appetizer sampler and some cocktails Be warned their drinks are boozy but good - food is just average for me- been here a few times and nothing really stands out- they are know for their chicken wings but I'm not a fan of their dry rubService was slow and not very engaging- have also eaten inside before and I love their bar area - good place for drinks

Went here recently for a snack and drink post graduation ceremony. The patio seating is lovely! The chairs are only like a 4/10 on the comfort scale, but the chill outdoors vibe is nice enough to overlook that.Everything we ordered was super flavorful and well cooked. The green beans were quite spicy, so if that's not your thing, avoid them. Our server wasn't very chatty, and things came out a little slow, which was fine for a lazy Friday snack, but if you're under a time crunch, keep that in mind. The cocktails are definitely the star of the show. I had the Blood Orange Martini. It was well balanced between citrus and sour, I highly recommend.

Monte Carlo is a cozy space with character - we went on a Saturday around 6PM and it was already packed, we sat outside on the patio. It was a bit chilly, did wish there were heaters of some sort but since I'm visiting from out of town it may just be that the patio isn't always open. I got the Maui Guac which had ahi tuna and avocado, it was very fresh and the tortilla chips were very nice, would definitely order again! The service was a bit slow without many checks from staff for people out on the patio, the restaurant did feel pretty chaotic. Noticed a few different tables, including ours, needing to flag down different staff to get our check.

Been here several times, always a great experience. Have sat at the bar and in the summer, love the outside area. Delicious cocktails and easily some of the best wings in the city.

I was able to go to the Monte Carlo for pre-dinner drinks with some friends and the vibe was great! Although it was busy we were able to sit at a table by the bar to enjoy our drinks. It was an old school classic bar that was lively. The drinks were doubles for $13.95! What is not to love about this. You will get a full glass that is about 2 martini glasses. Both the Sidecar and the Blood Orange Martini were great pre-dinner drinks. The Sidecar is Brandy, Orange Liqueur and Fresh Line Juice, Served Up. While the Blood Orange Martini includes: Blood Orange Vodka, Splash of Grapefruit Juice, Splash of Orange Juice and Dash of Cranberry Shrub. Service was quick in helping us and seating us!
