Our server was Renee and she was incredibly personable, she literally pulled us off the street, as we were looking at the menu that was just outside of the restaurant! So happy that she did, as our lunch was delicious! She was a lot of fun which always adds to the experience of eating out! read more

Alanna was our mixologist and server celebrating my nephew's wedding. Her drinks and service are the bomb! If you're ever in Manassas, come here and see Alanna, you won't be disappointed!! That was my lil sis! To Alanna, you are the absolute...with no questions you the everything in a woman! Xoxo read more

Came for lunch, definitely recommend the fried chicken BLT if you're hungry. We sat outside, on a nice day it's perfect. Our food was a little slow, but gave us time to rest. read more

Monza - Italian Near Me - Manassas, Virginia

For a place with great food and great service I am saddened to give such a negative review. The terrible rating has nothing to do with what they have to offer but what they allow to transpire inside their establishment. This is my 3rd time coming back, hoping beyond hope that my other times were just a fluke. Bottom line... this place is filled with loud mouthed fools, rude bores, and people that drink heavily, vomit in the corners, and treat others around them disrespectfully. One entree and two drinks cost me $76. Never again! read more

I went for the first time to Monza yesterday and had the Arancini, a Manhattan and a Fettuccine Alfredo with Chicken. It was a great experience and they had some equally amazing food. read more

We went for lunch after phase 1 started. Outdoor patio was very comfortable! My husband and I shared the buffalo chicken dip appetizer. Huge portion!! I had the BBQ Sandwich which was delicious. A touch too sweet for me with the pineapples but I got it without jalapeños so that might tame down the sweetness. My husband had the fried chicken BLT. Big sandwich and delicious! Overall a great lunch! Staff was friendly, helpful, considerate with masks. read more

Monza - Buffalo Chicken Dip - Italian Near Me - Manassas, Virginia

I'm a sour kind of girl and the blueberry sour from Ithaca tastes like water. Sorry Ithaca I know you're gorges. The food was ok. Had the jack special, nothing special bland pasta and seafood. The spinach and artichoke appetizer was good, but how can you mess that up? The Brussel sprouts were good, but see above. The perks are the ambiance and the atmosphere. Busy place. Nice crowd good to talk. Local place. I'd go back for a drink maybe not food, although I hear good things about the pizza. read more

This place is cute and has large enough tables to accommodate a decent sized group. I came here with a few friends and our moms. I got the Hula Pig Slides with BBQ Pulled Pork, Pineapple, Cilantro, Jalapeños and Coleslaw. They were tasting but nothing amazing. I also subbed the fries for a side salad which was an extra 3 dollar bringing my lunch to almost 17 dollars a little steep for the amount of food I got. I want to try some of the pizzas and pastas on here. Would love to see some more healthier options on the menu like a chicken dish with rice and veggies! read more

Had a great time here with friends, food and drinks. I ordered the mushroom risotto which was not good (because they rushed it out) but they were gracious enough to take it off the bill. Others at my table loved their food. What set this spot as a "come back" place is the service that Madison provided; sweet, charming and quick witted. read more

One of my new favorite spots in the area. The risotto was delicious and full of flavor. My sisters carbonara was overloaded with difficult to eat onions, which seemed like there were way too many but still food was good overall. The salad was fresh and dressing was light and just enough. Was interesting to see the game of thrones menu! Will have to try something from that next time. Was hoping they'd have better selection of darker beers but will just get wine next time. Service is great and the atmosphere is nice. We thought it could use some music though. We will definitely be coming back. read more

I was with a party of 8 on a Saturday at 6:30. We did call ahead so we were seated immediately which was nice. We asked our server what she would recommend to order and she stated, she wasn't sure. I got the chicken piccata which had a price point of $18. It was a split bland, non seasoned over cooked dry chicken breast that they put piccata sauce on also on the plate was a serving of pasta with a marinara sauce (which I have ever had, usually chicken piccata comes on a bed of pasta, usually angle hair or spaghetti) with the piccata sauce on the pasta and 2 small heads of under cooked broccoli. No bread or salad. My daughter got the spaghetti and ,eat balls which was so salty she wouldn't eat it. My other daughter got the chicken Marsala which was the same os my chicken piccata. Husband paid $17 for fish and chips which was tasted of frozen pre-made fish, 3 pieces and fries. I LOVE to support local small businesses but this was WAY over priced, food was mediocre or inedible. Will not return read more

Solid Italian food in Manassas...who knew! We stopped by Monza on a whim and got seated on their lovely patio. Food was excellent and our server was one of the kindest people we have encountered. Would definitely recommend. read more

Server took their time taking our order. But the food came quickly after. Appetizers, dessert and drink was good but the entree (I ordered the ribs) was awful. Bones were falling apart, tasted like it was loaded with pepper and very fatty. The mac and cheese was more mac and saucy than mac and cheesy. Even the coleslaw was bad. I would only order appetizers and drinks if i ever came back read more

If I could give zero stars I would. I ordered to go food from here for the first time. I ordered a arugula pizza and an order of curly fries. Not only did my to go order take 40 minutes which OK fine whatever that's not even what I'm upset about what I'm upset about is waiting 45 minutes to then get my dinner my arugula pizza is drenched in balsamic reduction my curly fries are so fried that they're not even edible. Actually ridiculous. I got my money refunded allegedly . We'll see. So angry! Will update review with photos. read more

Been here many times..Carmellos too. Came here the night before Thanksgiving; wow packed with young people! Alanna, the hostess/server/bartender/everything greeted us at entry and promptly set us up with a table top in the bar where we usually go. The place kept getting louder and more packed and we had to move for our own sanity to eat dinner. Alanna moves us over to a closed off section and our dinners were delivered within minutes. WOW Monza what a gem Alanna is; been coming here for decade + and enjoyed excellent service, but nothing like Alanna's taking care of us! (We run the 50+ group, so clearly clobbered by the youngsters tonight). Well done Alanna and Monza. We will be back with our own youngsters read more

It's a nice looking place and after reading the menu I was wanting to walk out. But then I saw the paper Tapas menu. Now I was very hungry so I decided to give it a try. But not good. The oysters Rockefeller was the only thing worth the money. All the Tapas taste like they came from 7-eleven and over priced. Got two glasses of Sangria @ $10.50 each! Wow! Table was sticky and had to fight a fly for my food. Waiter was great so he is the reason I don't leave a one star review. Not worth the price. read more

This past weekend my boyfriend and I enjoyed a second meal here at Monza . As was the case during our last visit we were treated to a delicious dining experience ! I would be remiss if I did not take a moment to make special mention of General Manager Gabey and Waiter Kyle both employed at this restaurant . Each of them were so very gracious , kind and helpful as I grappled with how to accomodate my dietary restrictions. Gabey made sure the chef prepared a tastey meal for me that kept my "belly happy"! And Kyle treated yours truly and my "culinary limitations " with such respect ! My boyfriend was able to enjoy a plateful of oysters ( one of his favorite foods)! And we complimented our meals with a wonderful bottle of Reisling!! I strongly recommend that everyone give this eatery a try... I doubt you will be disappointed!!!! read more

My wife and I tried this place on a Saturday evening. We never got to the dinner part of the meal. The absolute worst calamari ever. Loaded with salt and pepper and really chewy, like rubber. The Buffalo wings were chewy too. The service was so so. They didn't charge us for the calamari. Not going back. read more

Parking throughout the old town area surrounds Monza. Compared to DC and it's suburbs, parking is nothing to worry about. We had the blackberry sangria, the ahi tuna half order appetizer, the cheese board, I had the small spinach salad and my husband had a sandwich. Drinks and appetizers were wonderful, salad was a salad bar at best (dressing in a container on the side, so it's no type of salad I couldn't have done myself, and I probably could've done better). My husband's sandwich was pretty good. Nice wait staff who hustle and really worked hard while people were eager to dine outside on a nice day. Monza is a bit far from me to go out of my way to come to, but if I was ever in the neighborhood, I'd probably go back. I say stick with sharing appetizers and enjoy drinks versus ordering entrees. read more

I love Monza! The food and atmosphere is amazing. The spaghetti and meatballs and the fettuccine Alfredo are family favorites but don't forget their amazing specialty cocktails and wine selection read more

Worst service ever! Original order was wrong after waiting an hour. The manager came out a seemed like they were going to correct the issue. Another hour goes by abs still no food abs when the second manager came out - she starts with a little attitude saying they were short staffed. When she realized we still didn't have our food she went back to the kitchen and this arrives shortly after. 1 star only because we couldn't post 0 but that would be a generous rating. read more

This is my boyfriend and I's favorite date spot. We've been coming her since I've moved down to The Manassas area. Our favorite thing to drink is the Port Sour and our favorite thing to eat is the Tortellini Crema Rosa. The staff is so nice, some of them basically know us by now. I highly recommend. read more

Rooted in Old Town Manassas, Monza is the modern version of their fine-dining sister restaurant Carmelo's. Monza burger: * Beer demi-glaze: Very good. This glaze has the taste/consistency of a Thanksgiving dinner gravy. * Toppings: The Mozzarella cheese/mushrooms marry well with the burger/beer demi-glaze. * Creamy Aioli sauce: It was there. Chicken Tortilla soup: Without the julienned, grilled chicken strips, this soup would have no identity. On a side-note, the tortilla chips were a textured cohort. Not fiery enough: Add Texas Pete. Service: Accuracy of the order was spot-on, but the staff could be a bit more affable. Weekend lookouts? Brunch! read more

The food was delicious (mostly Italian-inspired, but a good variety). The service was prompt and friendly (waitress happened to be a friend of ours), and the outdoor dining area (when the weather is nice) is comfortable and shady and perfect for dog owners. read more

Was brought here for a dinner with family by my sister and her beau who have recently added this place to their favourites. From what I understand, it's a rebuild of a restaurant that had burned down, and is now newly-named, and has a new direction in food service. I never made it inside as we sat at a large table outside on a lovely spring night. First, my husband and I loved the Caesar Salad. We would come back just for that. I had a Margarhita Pizza, and I can't remember what my husband had. He really liked it, and the pizza was good. Fresh ingredients, but could have used some garlic (or more garlic) in my opinion. Service was excellent and we would go there again. read more

My wife and I had dinner here. I really expected much better. The food was good but not great. Overall, it was not worth the price. I would have given 3 stars but the price was excessive for the food and service. Sorry, I do not think I'll come back. read more

Full disclosure. I was visiting my best friend, whom I hadn't seen in months, so I was already in a spectacular mood. The best friend and I always split everything when we go out to eat together. And this meal was no different. We ordered white sangria ($7), oysters rockafeller ($10), Monza salad ($5.50), Tuscany pizza ($12), and tiramisu ($7). Everything was as described on the menu and had great flavor profiles. The stand out was the oysters. And I don't even like oysters. I have been craving them since I ate here last Friday. Price seemed just slightly high for only 5 oysters, but they were divine. We were surprised that the small salad was actually large enough for us to split, and we ended up with pizza left over. We were very full by the time we left. Service was great. There when we needed it and never overbearing. The food came out quickly and in the proper order too. We took advantage of the free dessert offered for checking in on Yelp. Thanks! Live music was starting up as we were getting ready to leave, and there seemed to be a good group gathering around the musician. I would certainly return with my friend on my next visit to Manassas. read more

Upgrade to 5 stars ... I finally had the chance to have a full meal at Monza last night, and it was fantastic.. The wife and I arrived at about 6:30PM Saturday night to the normal weekend crowd. Monza is becoming a hot spot in Manassas, and they get really crowded Fridays and Saturdays. We were lucky to snag a seat at the bar and we stayed there for ... umm ... quite a while :-) Wife and I both enjoyed the risotto fritters and and the pizza is fantastic. We ordered a Margherita and added mushrooms (which, as I told the wife, makes it no longer a Margherita, but we love mushrooms) and much later, after a few libations, ordered a 5 cheese pizza, which I liked even better. Speaking of drinks, we discovered that they have a great list of specialty martinis that made the wife happy. And of course, there is the AWESOME beet selection. They have 9 taps of great craft beers (many of them local) and an impressive bottled beer selection with unique offerings that you would normally only find at Total Wine. And the bartender told me they plan to add 4 more taps and rotate more local and seasonal brews. Monza is becoming a very popular spot in Old Town Manassas because of great beer, great food, and a fun crowd and atmosphere. read more

One of my favorite restaurants in Old Town, Manassas. This place is lively on a Friday or Saturday and also a great spot to grab lunch or dinner. The food is fresh and they never miss a beat. They also gave me a free shot on my birthday (super great staff). read more

Saw that Monza was rated with the best outdoor seating in Northern Virginia, so decided to visit Old Town Manassas to see it. The outdoor seating is lovely. The blackberry sangria was heavenly and I sat under a few fans on a hot day. The menu had a great selection - we split appetizers. The pizza rolls were something I can't wait to recreate - they had pesto, arugula, sun-dried tomatoes, artichokes, chicken and tomato sauce on the side. The sliders and side house salad were good and the curly fries were perfectly fried. The server was really friendly and quick. Prices were reasonable as well - didn't realize this was a sister restaurant of Carmello's next door. Definitely prefer this to the more stiff atmosphere next door. Will be back next time I'm in the area! read more

While visiting family we had chance to eat at Monza and it was a great experience from beginning to end. Despite a short wait we were seated and had calamari for an appetizer and it was very good. Service was efficient despite restaurant being very busy I had the full portion of Ahi tuna and it was outstanding. Enjoyed with Backhouse Pinot Noir that was so reasonably priced we took a bottle home. Thank you Zack GM for your good humor and excellent customer service. We will be back next time we're in Manassas read more

Great food, great atmosphere, great service. I recommend the Italian Sausage sandwich (add Mozzarella) and the house salad (their creamy Italian is TO DIE FOR). Don't forget dessert!! Try the Italian Bomba (any one of three combos of ice cream in a chocolate shell --- sooooooo good I can't compare it to anything ever). Plus they have an 11a - 7p Happy Hour, which, I would TOTALLY take advantage of (if I weren't currently pregnant). Someone go drink for me and I'll live vicariously through you!! read more

In a town full of sports bars, Monza is a rare oasis. It is classy, but not stuffy and is the perfect place for a quiet lunch or an afternoon drink. When I asked about how long Monza had been open, one of the staff took me on a tour of the attached Carmello's public and private dining rooms, the wine room, and we got to look in at what appeared to be a clean, well-run kitchen. The interior is beautiful. After hours, if they turned down the lights and put on some Bossa nova, you could make Monza a lounge. Drinks are poured strong enough to stun a mule. The contents of the bar lean strongly towards premium brands and some lesser-known spirits. Monza also benefits from the Carmello's wine room, which is a bonus that is not immediately obvious. I tried the Margherita pizza. It was a rare treat with a thin crispy crust, a perfect balance of tomato, mozzarella, basil and just enough garlic to let you know it was there. The entree pizzas would easily feed two for a light lunch. When the pizza arrived, I immediately checked the crust in the center and it was perfectly crispy. However, over the next 15 or so minutes, I found that the crust started to absorb the sauce, making the last couple of pieces soggy in the middle. I think this might be where the source of some reviewers complaints come from. The pizza is made to be eaten immediately. If things are busy, and the pizza spends 10 minutes waiting to be taken out to a table, it's ruined from the start. I plan to come here more often, and definitely intend to see if they can make a classic Martini. The only issue I could find? The excellent local draft beer selection had Miller Light at the top of the list. It should have been added to the bottom, as an afterthought for the kind of person who orders steak at a seafood restaurant. read more

After being sick for a week from food poisoning, we have come to realize the pizza we had here was the cause of it! Our service was great and had originally left a great review but all the people who ate a slice had an upset stomach! I leave honest reviews and do not care for any kind comments from anyone! To the owner: if you care for your customers at all, please look into what you're serving! Not a happy customer! read more

Although we called ahead (as they do not take reservations) because we had a large party, the seating was extremely inconvenient at high top bar tables with an infant and toddler....but we made it work! I ordered an apple pear martini (3 times before receiving it) and it was very bitter however; the food and the friendly staff (even though our waitress was slow) is what made me go up a star and settle at 4!!! My Jack special was PHENOMENAL! Chicken Parmesan was amazing (hubby ordered) the white flatbread...delicious! Maybe it was the fact we came on a Sunday.... either way, the food was good enough for a return and a second experience! We will be back based off of just that.

How about some wood-fired brick-oven pizzas and Italian pasta bowls in a trendy bar-room atmosphere in downtown Manassas? I'm telling you, this is a great place. Took my family here on a Sunday afternoon and had a blast. We were able to catch a Nats game on the flat screens while I downed a couple of Fat Tire beers on tap. My crusty perfectly-seared tomato, pepperoni and sausage "Monza" pizza was blanketed with mouth-watering mozarella and tangy marinara. My wife's "Jack's Special" seafood pasta was perfectly cooked and had a thick creamy sauce mixed with thick chunks of scallops, crab and shrimp. BIG TIP: Waitress told us all pastas are $4.00 off before 4 o'clock. Nice. There really isn't much to say bad about Monzas except for the fact that being in downtown, parking might be a problem. They could add a little variety to the menu - (the selections are a little limited to pizza and pasta mostly). And I'm not a fan of the raised bar-stool tables. Whenever we needed to cut into our food, the entire table would move. read more
