| - Hungry and looking for somewhere to eat Monday night, my bf suggested Montesano's because he had heard really good things about it. It was 8pm when we arrived and we were seated immediately. There were a few other diners there but they left shortly after we got there. I later learned they close at 9pm. I would have been there earlier but didn't get off work until 7. Anyway the menu was extensive and everything sounded so good it was hard to decide what to get. We finally decided on the fried calzone, (you can choose baked or deep fried), garlic fries, and a chicken pasta dish with a garlic cream sauce which the waitress said was similar to Alfredo. While we were waiting, we got a basket of bread and garlic knots. The bread was just OK, nothing special, and the garlic knots were good but a little dry and were cold. I think since we were the last diners of the night we just got what was left from earlier.
While we waited for our food, we checked out the baked goods on the display case in the front. Everything looked really good! I will have to go back to try some of those cannolis! Not too much later, we got our food. I have to say the deep fried calzone was AMAZING. I got it with meatballs and sweet sausage. (Originally asked for bacon but they said they no longer have bacon, yet it's still on the menu. Also who doesn't have bacon?) Either way it was fantastic. The crust was crispy and the inside was STUFFED with ricotta and mozzarella cheeses and the delicious meats it was just so good. It came with a piping hot side of their delicious marinara and it just completed the dish. I took half of it home because it was HUGE. The downfall was the pasta my bf got. It was just OK. The sauce was very bland and didn't have too much flavor. It didn't remind me of Alfredo as the waitress said. It was more of a watery sauce with garlic that's the best way to describe it. I was disappointed because it was $17 which is a bit steep for something I could have made better at home. The garlic fries were good and the ranch that accompanied it was also very good and garlicky. I am giving 4 stars for the calzone and leaving 1 star off because of the pasta and the service was a bit weak. Not once did anyone come to check on how our meal was or refill our drinks. I understand they were getting ready to close but we were the only ones there! I plan to check this place out a little earlier, and hope for fresher food and better service.
