Business Description from the Web

Holding the title as the oldest restaurant in Minneapolis, the Monte Carlo is a swank spot with a classic feel. Richly colored accents, mood lighting and a well-heeled crowd help create an ambiance that tempts you to light a cigar and possibly adopt an upscale accent. The food is top notch; steaks seared to perfection as well as seafood, salads and burgers.

This upscale restaurant focuses on an American cuisine an emphasis on burgers and steaks. Expect the average entrée to cost between $12 and $20, and plan to fit the scene by dressing casual.

Classic martinis at the copper-topped bar are worth a visit alone.

This is a great place when late-night munchies hit, especially if you're in the mood for a meat loaf sandwich with grilled onions on pumpernickel--it's only available after 9pm.

Beyond the bar, the long and narrow dining room features cushy burgundy booths and... more

The Monte Carlo's owner is one of the biggest exploiters of the local Latino community as laborers and it shows in both the food and the service. The ways that his workers are exploited and abused are too numerous to mention. When the restaurant first opened J. R. had an amazing staff of real cooks. In the last few years he has tapped into the local immigrant community as a cheap labor source... more

One of our Minneapolis favorites!

Monte Carlo has been and continues to be one of our favorite restaurants in Minneapolis. To start, the free valet parking is great - never having to worry about parking is great. The bar is classicly cool and a definite draw. The restaurant itself has a very old school vibe from the high ceilings and wallpaper down to the waitress uniforms. But most importantly the food always delivers. I... more

Serves up decent food (steaks, chops, etc) but this place is boring. I like the late night sandwich as well as the cocktails. Nothing else jumps at me except for the horrid wall paper. This is a good place for an older couple or someone in the neighborhood who doesn't want to go out too far.
