   Monty’s River Grill Review - Milford, CT Food Started off with two non-alcoholic cocktails that hit the spot - refreshing and well-balanced. For entrees, went with the Brisket and Filet Mignon. The Brisket was clearly the star here (seemed to be a limited time offering) - perfectly tender and juicy with just the right amount of bark on it. But honestly, the jalapeño cornbread that came alongside was a lowkey highlight of the whole meal. The Filet was also juicy and packed with flavor, though it came out well-done despite ordering it medium. Wrapped things up with the Chocolate Espresso Cheesecake for dessert, which was surprisingly light and hit all the right notes. Service This is where Monty’s really shines, and it’s all thanks to Theresa. Her service alone bumped this from a 4-star to a 5-star experience. She struck that perfect balance of being attentive without hovering - a true professional. What really impressed me was that she noticed the Filet was overcooked before we even had to mention it and immediately offered to replace it. That’s the kind of service that makes a difference. Ambience The outdoor seating overlooks the golf course and river, which would’ve been ideal, but rain kept us inside. The interior space works well though - tables aren’t crammed together and there’s plenty of natural light streaming through large windows. One thing to note: the restaurant shares space with a catering venue, and there happened to be a wedding reception going on during our dinner. Nothing that ruined the experience, but it did amp up both the noise level and the crowd factor a bit. Overall Really comes out to about 4.5 stars when you break it down. Solid value for what you get - two drinks, two entrees, and dessert came to around $100, which feels fair for the quality and experience. Would definitely recommend giving Monty’s a shot.

   Monty's never disappoints. Their pre-fix for the Sinatra evening event had such wonderful options and all was cooked to perfection. My Bronzini and my daughter's stuffed ribeye caps were delicious, generously served, and the best we have ever had. Their drinks are also so good and you can rely on generous amount of alcohol without feeling that they are diluted. We cannot wait to go back.

   Amanda our waitress was outstanding and Dan the Manager even was assisting the staff in delivering food to the tables himself. Pleasant atmosphere, excellent food and the staff is very professional. This is a keeper and I would highly recommend Monty’s grill, as I will be back with my wife for dinner and/or lunch again in the near future! 👌
