Montano's Review

Entry into this busy, casual restaurant is through a market whose chiller cases are stuffed with excellent cold cuts, cakes, and chocolates, its shelves packed with wines and beers from around the world. Likewise, the lengthy menu spans the globe from Chesapeake crab cakes to Spanish paella, from Italian veal Parmigiano to Brazilian moqueca. All of it is good (although I prefer the moqueca at Carlos's) and served in prodigious portions. More than 20 sandwiches and 15 salads appear, and vegetarians have half a dozen choices. One side of the big room is devoted to a sports bar, where musicians appear on weekends. Montano's is very popular with locals of every age and taste.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
