MonteMar 1848 Old Norcross Road, Lawrenceville, GA 30044

"Every year, my family and I chooses a restaurant to visit at either lunch time or dinner on Christmas. This year (2023), I chose the MonteMar to take my family to; and I'm so glad I did! First off, its in a good and noticeable location, easy to get to and plenty of parking spaces. When we walked in and were immediately impressed by the overall vibe and ambiance! very appealing little place with a dope cultural and modern style. The Hostess was pleasant and let us pick our table, mainly because there weren't many patrons there at the time. I do have to honestly say that communicating with our waitress was a bit difficult because we couldn't speak Spanish, but overall she was a nice person and took the time to make sure she understood. We ordered the shrimp tempura roll as an appetizer, but it came to our table with the rest of our food. That was a little disappointing, but it was fine because it was delicious! We were a family of 6 and we all really liked our food! Everything came out correctly, nice and hot, and the food were seasoned really well! Kudos to the cooking staff because they did a great job with everything! I you are thinking about stopping here, definitely do so because we absolutely plan to visit this place again on a weekend, to really see the place jumping."

"I recently had the pleasure of dining at MonteMar restaurant with my family, and I must say, it was an absolute delight. The food was not just good, it was incredible, deserving a rating of 100/10. The parillada and churrasco dishes were cooked to perfection, bursting with flavor that left our taste buds dancing with joy. The highlight for me was the inclusion of real mac and cheese, which added a comforting and delicious element to our meal. To complement the scrumptious food, we indulged in the exquisite chinola juice, which was a refreshing and delightful accompaniment. The entire experience was a true feast for both the senses and the soul. The staff was friendly and attentive, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. I highly recommend MonteMar to anyone seeking an extraordinary dining experience that will leave you craving for more."

"The floor plan is a very cozy one with plenty of room for big parties. Brand new place less than a year old has plenty of potential. The food is absolutely delicious. The prices are fair to that you don’t feel robbed at time of paying. The drinks fell a bit on the strong side with less appealing taste for the exception of the mojito witch was more than refreshing. Now the only down side I experienced was the staff. They weren’t rude but seem to be running all over the place, didn’t seem to find any organization or leadership around. While taking all the experience in I manage to catch one of the bartenders flossing his teeth without a care in the world. Didn’t seem appropriate or anyone to call him out on. Again the food was great I will be returning maybe after they can get a bit more organized."
