01/09/2025 This was our first time here. Hanna was our server. She did a stellar job! Thank you, Hanna! The food was delicious. Thank you to the chefs! There were 3 of us. We all got the same thing. The zucchini platter, Filets, made medium, with loaded baked potatoes, and a side salad. Everything was made perfectly. Thank you, Monroe's for also making your side salad with romane lettuce! That is much appreciated. Restaurant looked clean, as well as the restroom. This may have been our first time here but, it certainly won't be our last! Cleaned plates, and very satisfied customers here! I highly recommend Monroe's!

Lunch was very enjoyable for our small family. French onion soup and chili were quite fulfilling on a cold, snowy day. We all had sandwiches and were quite satisfied with our selections. We ordered desserts, only to realize such generous portions, would best be enjoyed later at home. Our waitress, Vivian, was very attentive and friendly and made for our first (but definitely not last!) experience very enjoyable.

Beautiful atmosphere and a wonderful cozy vibe inside the restaurant. Had space for our big group of 11 and took care of us quickly getting drinks out, including delicious hot chocolates. Service was really great, our server Pauline was very friendly and attentive along with the young man helping her. The food seemed to be made from scratch, ie home made style cooking and it was very very delicious along with the desserts. Will probably come back next time I make my way out this direction.

Nice place for lunch after visiting the zoo. The seafood options were good my fav was the cod. The steak sandwich was also good. Leave space for desert, I liked the carrot cake the most
