Horrible experience! Food was really not good..dont see what the hype is about this restaurant!
Great experience. Food was great also the service was pretty good...I would highly recommend this place you wont find any other indian/pakistani restaurant like it. Dont see what everyone is complaining about
average food for a high price. Service is the worse that I have seen for a long time at any place, even by desi standards. The scene inside is chaotic and half the serving dishes are empty at the buffet table. I have seen this on the two times that I have been there. I am sure that this slow refilin...
Loved the fried green tomatoes, the smothered pork chops. Very good, everyone loved it and the music was out of this world.
Excellent food and service. this is a long time family owned business and that alone should tell you that the quality is consistent. I would recommend Monastero's for any function. You will not be disappointed.
If you want to eat different delicious food, you must go to this restaurant. The food is so delicious and amazing. The restaurant serves raw foods! I have never eaten raw or vegan foods, but I like them so much. This place is very cute and the food is addictive.
Came up from Kentucky and took family (even baby) to the Parthenan. A completely good experience. The place was active and noisy which allows all types of groups to enjoy the atmosphere. You can enjoy dinner for two or blow the lid off with a large group. The servers were excellent and made me f...

I knew it! I told my girlfriend he wasn't Italian! He told us he was! He couldn't even pronounce "gnocchi" or "bruscetta"! He's got postcards from Greece on the walls and he pretends to be from Italy? What a sad clown. It wouldn't matter, if he made good food. If the food were fresh and nicel...
I know exactly what that last review was referring to. The owner here actually PRETENDS to be from Italy! Can you believe that? Evidently, he's been able to make a fool of his own customers for years. Isn't that just weird?
Last night I was at the restaurant. Everything was wonderful. I'm glad to learn that dishes at a raw restaurant can taste good! The employees were very nice and the decor was well done. I generally don't like raw food, but I gave this place a try and really liked it. The foods were really delicious....
This dump is horrible. The wait staff was rude and unprofessional!!! Would NEVER recommend this place to anyone!!!
The chicken was crispy and juicy, not greasy at all. Probably the best chicken I've ever had. I'll definately be going back.There is no seating so its a carry out joint.
We picked the containers of food and we went out the door, without seeing what was in the container. We drove to a gathering at a friend's house and we took our share of the food to them. We were surprised when we opened our tray of our food. We all felt that it was the worst Polao we had ever se...

The waitress was very rude stuck her tongue out at us when we ordered a shake. When we asked what kind of danish they had, she said didn't you look when you came in? So we had to go look to see what kind they had. Very rude lady.
Was treated here for my birthday. I thought the food was delicious; a good variety; pleasant waitstaff. Highly recommended.
The only good thing about this restaurant was the flavor of the deep dish pizza. If it had been hot, it would have been better. Like the rest of our visit, everything was sub-par from service to ambiance to food temperature. Our server brought our drinks to our table 30 minutes after we placed our...
I came across this website and saw the reviews other vegetarians had left on this restaurant. I recently went there, and being a vegetarian myself, I thoroughly enjoyed the food and felt there was a decent variety. I really enjoyed my experience and would recommend to anyone.
