Reviews for Monte's Fine Foods in Portland, ME
After 2 visits, I?m ready to make this a regular stop! Being vegan and gluten-free, I haven?t been to an Italian restaurant in... eons. But Monte?s handles both deliciously. The gf crust is amazing, and they have so many great vegan options, none of whichare compromises. My first time, I split a summer pizza. Next time, a Grilled Asparagus Bowl. Each ingredient is individuallymade with care and attention. So yummy! The hummus was creamy and phenomenal. Nothing is oily or saturated with garlic, likesome places. And the best is their selection of gourmet foods! We topped off lunch by splitting a pint of Sticky Sweet ice cream(the best ice cream in Portland, which happens to be plant based.) Thanks to the staff that?s incredibly kind and patient - I?malways so indecisive and inquisitive when ordering (I take my food seriously!) The outside covered patio is the only seatingavailable, but it?s great. Order at the counter. Lots of compostable packaging. And as a vegan, I very much appreciate that theymake their own faux meats. I?m personally not into the processed stuff. Read more
Monte's is INCREDIBLE. They make a perfect pie and the the options for toppings are just wonderful. The price isn't expensive,... for $23 you get a perfect pie for 2-3 people. I have been many times and never had a bad experience. The OWNER went to Rome tolearn how to make pizza... how can you go wrong? A must try in the Portland area. Read more
Cute shop with a great selection. We didn?t love the pizza. The Calabrian chili and chicken just tasted like sauce, and the... ricotta sausage was fairly bland. Maybe it was just an off night because the reviews are so great. Read more
This place is awesome! We got pizza and sandwiches and I?m bummed I haven?t been sooner. The hot chicken sandwich brings the... HEAT, but in a good way! The pizza crust was crunchy and the sauce was sweet. There?s lots of local products to browse and shopwhile you wait for your food. Parking was plentiful and they have an outside seating area if you?re looking to eat there! Highlyrecommend Monte?s! Read more
Mmmmm just got home from Montes. I went in for two slices of their grab and go slices.. but obviously I couldn?t help but to... grab a few groceries. Fresh little oranges with the leaves still on it.. some local veggies, house roasted sliced turkey breast,and local cheese! Mmm It?s a little expensive here, 8 dollars per slice of pizza always makes my chest feel tight but theirstore is always so clean and friendly and they do everything from scratch with thoughtful ingredients so you do get what you payfor.
