Monelli

Food was good, and the waitress that took care of us was really nice. However, after we had dinner we stayed talking and having fun until 11pm. The place closes at midnight, but people were looking at us in a way that made us uncomfortable. There were lots of people on other side, and there were still a few tables with other customers on the side we were sitting. Don't know exactly what was going on, but if the rooms close at different hours, there should be something online. It only said it closes at midnight.

First time. Loved it! I had the chicken alfredo. I like the Alfredo down the street. And don't recall ever "not" having to ask for more sauce. Monelli's didn't hold back on anything. The noodles were El dante. And the flavor and consistency were exemplary! Empties whisked away without intrusion. Drinks replaced without request. I will return and submit an updated review.

We come here regularly and have for years. This was the first time I felt compelled to leave a review because we truly received the best service we have ever had dining in. It made my life so much easier as a mom with my hands full to have our drinks constantly filled, not have to ask for extra napkins, and to just have someone treat us with such kindness and promptness. And she mentioned she was relatively new. Definitely NOT inexperienced. Thank you so much JAZMINE (sp?).

When my family was sat we were completely ignored for a good while, I wasn't keeping track of time as I was hopeful the many people walking by our table would eventually say something but didn't until we asked the wait staff person next to our table, I would GUESS it was at least good fifteen minuets of nothing. The waiter could not have been more accomodating!!! I was so impressed the the amount of grace they had! They didn't miss a beat, as the meal was spectaular from when we got served all the way to the end! I would guess the hosts didn't tell any of the wait staff that they were sat, as she was talking to someone not on the wait staff right after we were sat? Plus, for how surprised our waiter was when we eventually asked for service.

Great menu and wonderful food. I always try different things from their menu and have yet to have a bad experience. For starters, try the pepperoni rolls, trust me! Some other good appetizers are the mozzarella sticks, cheesy breadsticks, and sweet potato fries. Their salads are very very good and fresh, this is important to me, as nobody wants a wilted uninspiring salad. Now to my favorite no-lose main courses; lasagna classica, fettuccine alfredo, classic burger, cheddar bacon burger, olive burger, chicken parmesan, chicken marsala, lobster fettuccine & rigatoni carbonara are amazing. Other items might be just as good, I simply haven't tried them. My new favorite, as I just tried it on my last visit, was their pizza! How are they not known for their pizza?! The crust is perfect, it's on the thinner side but I wouldn't necessarily call it thin. Toppings were good and they didn't skimp on them. Please, get a pizza for takeout if you don't feel like eating at a restaurant. They are excellent. I don't often have room for dessert, but I really like the cannoli. Most cannoli just don't have that home quality to them, but these do. One last thing, if the parking lot is full, don't despair. They have a lot of seating and even at 6pm on a Friday, I haven't had to wait for a table.

Bartenders are attentive and interesting, huge draft and liquor selection, and the food (a blend of Italian and American) is excellent. The bar area is large, open, and has many TVs with variety of sports playing. It can be loud, but in a "busy bar" sort of way. The dining room is entirely separate and feels more like a family sit-down restaurant with limited noise.

My daughter and I stopped in for lunch. Wasn't real hungry so I ordered a sub. Took half of the sub home, it was big! My daughter ordered cavatappi, which I stole a bite of. Delicious! Big portions. Our waitress was friendly, and happy. I liked the whole atmosphere of the place. The good food is a big plus!!
