Mountain of praise for Montarra The experience was very pleasant. This was our second time here and, to be honest, we only returned because we had a gift certificate. But we were pleasantly surprised and delighted. Service: Excellent. Both wait staff and hostess team seemed very engaged, from when I made the reservation to when we stepped into the restaurant and even when we left. Our waitperson was efficient, polite, and knowledgable. Food: was really outstanding (we had bouillabaisse and a special risotto dish with scallops). The menu was varied and interesting - I often gauge a restaurant by looking at the menu and having a difficult time making a selection because many items looked good. I liked that they had a quality menu with several selections that seemed creative. The quantity of items was also just right. Not too many, not too few. Other: When they took my reservation, they asked if it was a special occasion. I said it was for my husband's birthday. They asked his name - I didn't really know why but told them. When we were seated, I realized why. They had printed a special version of the menu with a happy birthday note to my husband. It was a very inexpensive, clever, and simple, yet meaningful step. We were impressed. We would definitely return - even without the gift certificate.

Ways an amazing experience. Great menu and great staff! The salmon was probably the best I've ever had and my friends filet was crusted with Parmesan and so tender! Highly recommend

Good food and good prices. I just wished they'd brighten up the inside. It's way too dark. Get rid of the carpeting.
My wife and I went here for a date night. The food was excellent and the atmosphere was good. The service was also good. I got the pork chop which was probably the second best pork chop I've ever had. That being said, we spent over $200 for two entrees, two appetizers, and one drink each, which I consider to be way overpriced.

This restaurant is wonderful for celebrating a special occasion. Our booth was very comfortable for our party of 4. We started with the Spicy Tuna Tartar, and Goat Cheese Croquettes appetizers. Both were delicious! For dinner we enjoyed the Duet Beef Tenderloin Tips with bacon wrapped Jumbo Scallops, New Zealand pistachio crushed Lamb Rack, Short Ribs, and the Scottish Crusted Salmon. Special thanks to the Chef for preparing the Salmon gluten-free! Our grand finale was a wonderful Creme Brule, and their special ice cream with fruit and whipped cream toppings. The birthday candy was a very nice touch! Overall, highly recommend this wonderful restaurant!
