- ILIrvin LiraJul 11, 20254.0Great place to hang out with family or friends. They have free Soda Refills and they also allow dogs while on a leash.
- PPPamela PrendergastJul 9, 20255.0Monty’s is one of my favourite places to dine. The open atmosphere is refreshing and is made more relaxing as one gazes on the beautiful boats docked nearby. On my last time there to celebrate a delayed Father’s Day, our server was exceptional. She made the experience even more pleasant and memorable.
- JHjeremy hannaJul 9, 20254.0Great food awesome atmosphere and great service. They have something for everyone. Burgers, seafood, grilled cheese etc. Fresh and good. Will come back next time in town.
- JMJudie MoralesJul 9, 20254.0I just went with 2 friends for happy hour. They have seafood bar. I ordered shrimps. Very large and looked great but I didn’t realize they hadn’t been cleaned. Did not like. The stone crabs looked good although I didn’t order as they are not in season now. The tuna tartare was delish and so were the drinks. The service was fantastic! Will definitely return but no shrimp for me.
- JGJoyce GriffithsJul 5, 20255.0I have been here numerous times, haven't been in a while. I see they have done a little changing around, DJ booth is located close to the entry, and looks like more tables has been added too. If you looking for a nice water scenery fo eating, this is the place. I took my niece out to have a lil bite to eat on this raining 4th of July. Sitting next to the boat dock & eating is living. I had a nice mule drink with conch balls & grill shrimp. The conch balls was good & fried to my liking👍🏾.
