We had a great dinner! The service was fast and friendly, and the food was delicious. They also have a great selection of draft beers and drink options. The wings are always a favorite--our go-to is the Hot Honey flavor with a side of the King's hottest sauce. The only thing that surprised us was the wedge salad. It was more like half of a wedge and felt a bit small for the price, but it was still delicious, especially with the candied bacon. Overall, it's a great family-friendly spot with a patio where little ones can play, making it an easy and enjoyable place to eat with kids. read more

We were just going to stop off for a drink to be very honest with you and ended up sitting out on the patio, which is very pleasant and was waited on by just a wonderful server. What a complete pleasure. The empanadas were incredible. Truthfully they were simply incredible. All of the liquor is top shelf if you so desire, and again, the service is a huge compliment to the lovely ambience and good food. I have every intention of returning it's jampacked with television so obviously it's an incredible sports bar, which by the way the manager came out and catered to our taste for the screen directly in front of our table. For a humble cuisine and just a sports bar this is truthfully, a first class experience. I have no doubt that I will return. read more

Nice neighborhood bar. Unfortunately, it was bingo night and the place was full of screaming people and kids. Cold beer and good wings. Way too loud and crowded. It was very hot inside, probably due to the big crowd. read more

We went for Father's Day quick lunch as my husband wanted a good burger... we chose to sit outside despite the weather it was hot but not unpleasant.. we got seated near an umbrella so had some shade but it was a welcoming dose of sunshine.. they had lively music going before a round of music bingo which was entertaining.. my husband ordered a beer which was very good and a bacon jam melt burger... I ordered the Texas 2 Step both with seasoned fries oh and corn riblets as a starter... all of it was absolutely delicious and very well sized! The waiter was very sweet and friendly! The whole vibe was great! We have plans to return soon! read more

Saturday night specials here are seriously hard to beat. The domestic brew specials alone make it worth stopping by--ice cold, reasonably priced, and perfect for kicking back without feeling rushed. It's the kind of deal that keeps the good vibes going all night and makes you want to stay for one more round. The real star of the night, though, was the Monte Southwest Chicken. It came out hot, fresh, and packed with flavor. The seasoning was on point, the chicken was juicy, and everything just worked together perfectly. Honestly, it was so good that I didn't even think to take a picture--by the time I realized it, the plate was already clean. That should tell you everything you need to know. Great food, great drink specials, and a solid Saturday experience overall. I'll definitely be back for the brews and that Monte Southwest Chicken again. read more

I went last night for drinks and got a this delicious spinach and artichoke dip that was delicious! The bartender inside was so nice to me and when I moved outside, the bartender outside was nice as well. Both inside and outside were clean, as well as the bathroom! The manager introduced himself and checked on my friend and I and made us feel very welcomed! This was my first time coming there for drinks and I will definitely be coming back for another mom's night out! read more

Great bar and grill in the Richmond area, serving yummy eats and a big selection of beer and drinks. We ended up coming here after doing a quick Google search and we are happy we did! The place was packed on a Saturday night and we took a table outside in the patio. We ordered a couple of beers, they had a special going because the Astros were playing, and ordered a good selection of their small plates. The food tasted great and come out hot and quick! We tried the corn riblets, the ravioli, spinach artichoke dip and their wings, all packed with flavor. The garlic Parmesan wings had a smokiness to them and were amazingly juicy. Service was superrrrr attentive. We were constantly being checked up on to make sure we had all we needed, a far cry from what I've been used to at Los Angeles area restaurants. Considering how close this place is to my sister in laws house, it's more than likely to become a staple and must visit every time we are in town. read more

I agree w most of the glowing reviews. Such a fun place to hang out! Went here for a somewhat spontaneous date night and we really enjoyed our food. Service was exceptional. We had the sweetest waitress and were checked on by most of the staff as well. They have specials and for Cinco de Mayo it was a taco one. The beef street taco was so good! I got one of these and 2 of the shrimp but wish I had just stuck w the beef. My elote was delicious too. Hubby didn't care for country fried steak or side dish at all. However we've enjoyed takeout from here before and their burgers were delicious so I would venture to say most of their menu is pretty good! The dessert was so delicious--ooey gooey butter cake and it definitely lived up to its name. I can definitely see myself going more often. read more

My brother-in-law and I were looking for a place near Richmond to meet up with an old friend, Richmond being the halfway point between our two houses. The Yelp reviews were strong, and the menu looked good. They also appeared to have a good selection of brews, on tap and in the bottle. Note: Thursdays they have all day Happy Hour, so pop in for some pretty cheap beers! We were pleasantly surprised! We were seated outside, despite the fact that it was a chilly evening. They had a good set of heaters running, which made it quite comfy outdoors. The waitstaff were attentive, friendly and helpful. We took a while to place our orders, but our waiter didn't mind, and came back a couple of times until we were ready. And she came back a few more times to make sure we were doing well and had enough beers. The two of us had already eaten not that long before, so we ordered chips, which came with sides of salsa, guacamole, and queso, all of which were made at the restaurant. The salsa was good (I've had better), and could have been spicier, but the guacamole was excellent. It was clearly just made and tasted incredibly fresh. I was really surprised by how much I liked their homemade queso. It was really good. I may give their nachos a try should I come by again (their nachos are topped with queso, among other ingredients). Our friend got their fish tacos and really liked them. Breaded fish, which I wouldn't have liked, but he did. Great beers and a wonderful place to hang. read more

We came during and a&m baseball game so the place was busy and so loud. SO LOUD I almost asked my husband if we could leave. It's a small restaurant and bar so it's no fault of the restaurant of course. There's a patio but it's very very hot so we opted to stay inside. First time here obviously. I ordered the watermelon ranch water with mezcal. Omg so good and I'm so glad they have mezcal. Food I had the 6 piece salt pepper wings and the blue cheese salad wedge with candied bacon. Holy cow the salad was so good I literally closed my eyes and said out loud "omg this is so good I can literally eat this everyday!" My picky 8 yo liked it too. The wings were fat, juicy, perfect exterior perfect interior. I'd definitely be back probably ordering the same things. Maybe when it's cooler I'll sit on the patio where it's not so loud. read more

Cool place for appetizers and drinks out on their patio. Food is good and the prices are reasonable.

Everything here is amazing. The food is delicious. The service has been exceptional. The ambience is a warm but nightlife vibe bar. We've now been a couple times and every time it hits the spot. read more

Came on a Friday night and luckily only had to wait a few minutes for a table. This is a great spot to come with friends or bring your kids. The outside patio had lots of tvs and looked like a fun little spot to hang out at. The kitchen does close a bit before they actually close their doors so don't try to go there for a late night dinner. read more

Service = 5 Stars - very attentive and kind. Our server was on top of it all. Ambiance = 5 stars - it's a local neighborhood spot that serves as a bar and restaurant with TVs and good food. Food = 3.5 Stars - Main reason we stoped by because we were looking for good burgers. Unfortunately the burgers were underwhelming. OG burgers- Double meat patties seemed to equal maybe only a quarter pounder and drowned by the oversized & somewhat dry brioche bun & the fixings (lettuce, tomatoes, etc). Burgers lacked flavor and the expected juiciness as well. Price charged didn't seem justified for the basic cheeseburger. Wings were fantastic. I would order those again. We will be back in the near future to try some of the other items on the menu. read more

Soooo we went back the next week. Very similar experience. Friday night. Worth it. Great nachos, great burger and my wife raved about the fish tacos. Service continues to be great. Honestly very pleased to have a place like this nearby. read more

Love this neighborhood sports bar!! Great bartenders and servers! Awesome and friendly owner! Beer is ice cold! Food is fantastic, love the burgers.

Monte's is one of the best local spots to frequent. The food is always fresh and amazing, especially their crawfish during crawfish season! You won't find a flavor like theirs anywhere else! The service is outstanding and you always feel like family when you go to Monte's! They have a covered outdoor patio with an outside bar and fun patio games as well! Definitely one of my favorite places in the area! read more

Love that every time we order pick up it is just as good if not better than eating there! They do a great job of packaging and the variety and options are so delicious. Had the hot honey chicken sandwich, burgers, fries, pesto panini I highly recommend it all! They always have something new to try and hanging out there is so fun. Can't beat a place like this! read more

Tried Monte's for the first time today! Great and attentive service. We were seated right away and were checked on routinely. It also got busy really quickly and the patio is the spot to be at given the weather was nice today. We ordered the bueno nachos, birria tacos, and fish tacos. LOVED the nachos, birria tacos had a smokey bbq kick to it and if you get the fish tacos, get it fried! Crawfish is only on Tuesdays so we're definitely coming back for that VERY soon! that and so we can try out the rest of their menu! 10/10 recommend read more

Monte's is a hidden gem!! Just moved to Richmond and was a bit sad about the food places out here. This is the best place to eat and drink out here by far!!!! Service was amazing they even have a quiet section of the restaurant for my baby while we dined in. Hospitality was great I really felt the energy. Ambience was nice, they even have a glow sign at the front to take pics. I'm a sucker for a nice clean establishment. Will be back for sure read more

This place has the BEST service we've had in a long time. Our waiter Zach went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. The food can speak for itself. We had the loaded nacho fries. They were decadent, and the beef very flavorful. Strongly recommend! We came on a Tuesday to try their famous crawfish, and they did not disappoint. They were extremely juicy, the perfect amount of spicy and the size was also on point. Will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu! read more

Nothing like stopping in to some jams, cold bevs, and rockin grub. If you are undecided on where to grab a bite, just do yourself a favor and come on in. Highly recommend shrimp brochettes and a Pacifico to pair it with! read more

Drove to Sugarland for a comedy show. Found this place online so we stopped for a drink and a quick bite before the show. It was bustling for a Wednesday night. Sat at the outside bar. Bartender was super personable and friendly. Drinks were well-made. I had the chicken wings, which were delicious. Husband had some french fry deal and it was not the best. He wound up helping me with my chicken wings. The bartender was super accommodating and the manager came over to speak to us. He was kind enough to take it off the tab. Just a really nice little neighborhood eatery. Definitely a must try if you're heading down to Smart financial arena for an event. read more

Not our first trip. As expected the service was top notch. Food, pesto pannini, rich, flavor overload, awesome. Taco salad over the top with plenty of meat, spices and textures. Bread pudding made the event noteworthy. Great food, more than adequate portions, superior service, neighborhood atmosphere. read more

The staff at Monte's have become a piece of my extended family. My toddler and I visit almost every Friday, and I have tried more than half of the menu. It's incredibly challenging to choose a favorite but if I HAD to choose I would select the hot honey chicken sandwich. The last time I went, we ordered to go and I got a fried chicken sandwich and onion rings. When I say PHENOMENAL?! The chicken was perfectly crispy. The balance of savory and sweet is 10/10, and there's some sort of spice they put on the chicken to season it that takes it to the next level. It comes with a slaw and it's the perfect balance of creaminess and crunch. Served on a brioche bun, the hot honey chicken sandwich is one you can't beat! The onion rings could be fried a little harder, but they are yummy! If you want something light, I highly suggest the fish tacos! WOW! Flavor bomb. My son has dietary restrictions and they do such a great accommodating us! The restaurant is very kid-friendly and each employee welcomes you in with open arms. Thank you for a key staple in our community! read more

This place is a great family friendly bar spot! I love watching sporting events up here and the staff is top notch! If Marissa is behind the bar for sure ask for her! Service is elite, food is great and the drinks keep flowing. I love me some Monte's. read more
