Monty's is the epitome of decent/average diner food. They do ok corned beef from scratch, ok breakfasts, ok meatloaf, all with nice portions. It's a good place to sit and talk and eat.
But what really makes Monty's a recommended location is their attention to gluten-free, vegan, and other dietary lifestyles or restrictions. Instead of having to ask, the menu offers many alternatives to regular meat/wheat fare. In this way, their 'ok' everything approach is elevated to specialty diet destination. Finally, a place to go without worry to have a normal diner experience for those (such as a couple of my family members and friends) with food allergies. Highest recommendation if this applies to your experience. Genuine place for 'something for everyone' eating.
