on Citysearch Aug 21, 2009I use to frequent this restaurant quite often. That is not the case anymore. The last couple of times I have gone the food quality has gone down hill. They changed the menu and I was excited to see and try the new things.... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 14, 2009This is a good stop for happy hour with average drink prices (albeit on some very good beer) but excellent food prices and very good selections. The location in a strip mall is less than exceptional, but the interior is... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 04, 2009unlike the other reviewers, we were not overjoyed with the high prices and lack of quality food. Thankfully they had Passport and other discounted programs going through 2008, unfortunately, they did not keep any... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 22, 2008I usually head here for a hamburger or salad but they have so much more. I recommend getting on the mailing list for the monthly menu. It is a nice neighborhood restaurant but a little expensive if your taking kids. On... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 21, 2008A real pub! Good food, The variety of delicious burgers is tremendous. All in all a fund place to eat. Closed on Sundays -- except for Mother's Day! Parking is bad, it's in a small srip mall with limited spaces.... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 16, 2008This was an amazing find. I came here with my sister, we love to eat out at locally owned restaurants and it is pretty hard to find places close, but this is definitely one of them. We took advantage of the amazing... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 26, 2008My wife and I enjoy good food and even though we live in the area we tend to find ourselves driving into Portland to have good food from locally owned restaurants (we really try to support only those places). So that... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 21, 2008I am a consistent diner-outer and visited Monteaux for the first time on Saturday. I was pleased to find a neighborhood favorite just down the road. The ambience was a pleasant surprise! We were seated by a friendly... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 07, 2008How much my husband and I think of Monteaux?s might be measured by the fact that we chose to go there for dinner on our tenth wedding anniversary. Sure, it?s just a small, neighborhood pub, but that?s what we love about... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 26, 2008I have heard about Monteaux's for years now and even used to work at a nearby hotel that recommended it, but I went there for the first time this weekend. The outside tables looked great, but they were full so we ate... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 08, 2008Downtown Portland offers many fine dining choices, but out in the Westside, the pickings are pretty slim. MPH is a breath of fresh air when you don't feel like the hassle of going downtown, and you don't feel like... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 12, 2008We have been going here since it first opened. A few years back we stopped because of poor service (five in a row to be exact). When it showed up on our Passport card, we decided to try it again last year, and it has become a... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 16, 2007We have been to Monteaux's several times and we have never had a bad experience. I have never written a comment about them, and now feel guilty. You need to try this place. The food is amazingly good with the best Chicken... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 05, 2007Obviously, Monteaux is one of a kind. Where else on this website do you see the owner responding to nearly all reviews? We want to say thank you for the special touch and a great establishment. The beer list is... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 29, 2007I've always had a great experience here - never bad service or inattentive waiters. I make a point to bring out of town relatives and coworkers here, because the burgers are outstanding. Try the California Burger. I... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 22, 2007I arrived in Monteaux at 10:35 PM (25 minutes before closing) on a Friday night 06/23/2007. When we (just the three of us) first got there, the waitress immediately told us that we need to hurry ourselves in ordering... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 17, 2007If I had the option to give it NO STARS I would. The food is not bad at all but the staff are just not friendly at all. I need to get vickiloy's secret since she clearly states she is a female who has NEVER been slighted in the... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 24, 2007My boyfriend and I absolutely love the hamburgers at Monteauxs! The Leprechaun burger is to die for! I would recommend trying a Teriyaki Sandwich and asking for a burger instead of chicken. It comes out incredibly... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 10, 2007So to start I have to say that the idea of the resturaunt and the ambiance is great. To promote a different country's cuisine every month is a great idea and a lot of the time Monteaux's nails it. I've never had bad service... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 06, 2007It's unfortunate the last two comments might leave a reader with a bad impression of Monteauxs. I have to say I have never in the handful of times I patroned the restaurant, had bad service. From the moment I walk in the... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 16, 2006Stopped by for drinks and cheap eats, but was greeted with one of the stingiest happy hours I've ever come across. I ordered the $3 cheeseburger and, being intolerant to mayonaise, made a request that my meal be served... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 09, 2005This was a very nice place... too nice. I personally like my pubs to be a bit darker and less... well... polished, but if you're looking for a nice restaurant, this place has it all. Good selection of beer (wish they had... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 13, 2003Well, I don't know 'bout that, but it sure knows how to fill your empty stomach with a style. There is a plethora of well-known, basic American comfort food to choose from. No surprises here, and I mean that in a good way.... (more)
