Top 15 Affordable Restaurants in Monticello, NY

Anthony Griggs The food was good, but the service and atmosphere is what truly stood out to make this a great place! Wait staff was super friendly... Truly the nicest experienced in our trip to New York. I believe it to be one of the owners who came out. She told us about the "Italian" sandwich which we ordered for our daughter. She said that it probably isnt the type we were thinking of and when she saw my daughter didnt like it because it was so different... She came back with another "Italian" sandwich made in the way my daughter was used to at no extra cost! Wow, who does things like that anymore? Especially in New York! It truly stood out among all the restaurants we visited in our week of vacation, thank you! By the way, I ate that sandwich the next morning for breakfast... It was super delicious... Just different than what my daughter was used to for an "Italian".

lisa gani Excellent restaurant on all fronts- the food, the atmosphere, and the service. Best we’ve experienced in the area. They were kind enough to take us after 10pm when the kitchen was closing. Being that late we were the only ones left in the restaurant but the service was exceptional. They did not try to rush us out given the late hour but rather offered us an after dinner drink on the house. We had the specials (sea bass, salmon) which were lovely. In addition to bread at the start of the meal they also served an accompaniment of lavish crackers, cheese, and dried meat. Would definitely eat there again.

Sandeep Malhotra Absolute gem in Monticello. The food was outstanding! Starting on the appetizers which included calamari, spinach pear and goat cheese salad and arugula roasted beet salad. The lamb chops, seared tuna, branzino and chicken Marsala were all to die for. The tiramisu and Italian pistachio cheesecake were sumptuous. Wine was great. Service was courteous, attentive and prompt. Great outdoor seating.

Lizzette Velez Ordered the taco pizzas and the kids are in love. Absolutely delicious is what they said. Definitely ordering again.

MGiOiA Quick delicious food. Short ride from Kartrite Indoor Water part. We enjoyed their wonton noodle soup, beef and broccoli, beef brisket, laksa and Korean BBQ Pork and Kimchi. You order on the counter like in a fast food restaurant, food was quickly made which was perfect for my hungry group. Served in plastic containers (to go style) and ample sitting was available. Good food and fast. (Sorry no food pics, it was eaten as soon as it landed the table.)

Jennifer George Best pizza in Monticello for sure. They offer many choices and their Chicken BBQ pie is amazing. Been coming here for many years now and it’s always great. During the summer the area is congested but still worth it.

Dalai Maruri The food quality was good, the staff was very friendly. It was a nice place to stop for dinner on a roadtrip. The dining area walkway was a bit small; so if kids step out of their seats it can feel crowded. Besides that, everything was pretty great.

Brian Baez Ordered on door dash.. says open till 11 after not hearing from anyone for 45 minutes and my order getting transferred twice door dash finally calls me and they tell me they’ve run out of chicken and are closed.. why accept my order then.. still waiting on refund

Aslam Ullah Best Lamb gyro platter around this area’s

Crissibeth Cooper Up here in upstate New York, this is what we call heritage cuisine. The food of my people. And by that, I mean: Jewish comfort, wrapped in an egg roll, dripping in duck sauce. They did mix up my order once, but I have forgiven them. Its a little rundown (which we all know is a positive sign) but sadly they do not deliver. There are vegetarian options if you look for them. Bottom line: It’s greasy, it’s glorious.

Mackenzie Taylor These people know what they’re doing. When I tell you everything was amazing… I can’t even… IT WAS SO GOOD. We got the 16 piece chicken family meal for 4 of us and a kid. They were not messin around, there was so much food. I’ve never had cornbread like theirs, it tasted almost like it could be a dessert, but not crazy sweet, like cinnamon and maple. We also got collard greens, mashed potatoes, and yellow rice as our sides. Everything was seasoned so well and the chicken was so juicy and crunchy. Imma have dreams about this food. I tried to be modest and take a picture of my plate before I demolished it.

Danny Callahan Very good authentic food! Hand made tortillas, delicious salsa, loved the tacos! Friendly customer service too! Ate here twice while visiting the water park nearby, will definitely be back. Much better than the food at the resort!

Stingu We have dined at this establishment on numerous occasions, and as usual, we have had an exceptional experience. The pasta and chicken dishes we ordered were particularly outstanding.

Black Trunks I love this place Fresh and delicious food ! Huge variety of different meats and flavors you can put on any Authentic tacos Made with fresh home made corn tortillas! I get the “Sope” that has a thicker corn tortilla and Reminds me of polenta almost, it’s amazing when eaten fresh and in house It’s crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside, I got the “Cecina” (salted beef) with lettuce, crema and the avocado on top is great. Also highly recommend the burritos I got the chicken burrito, The rice and beans, peppers, guacamole and cheese is always fresh and it’s pretty huge Best value for real food around hands down Try a “fruit water” aka agua de Frutas I got tamarind… it’s awesome, brought back memories of childhood Awesome place Try it out

J G Quick turnaround on my order, excellent food at a great price; highly recommend if you are in town
