Montes Cafe

Food was awesome! They let us eat outside with our dog and were very nice. 10/10 recommend. If ordering take out keep in mind hot food in closed containers can make food soggy. Try to eat it right away! La agua de Jamaica was on point and the lemonade was very satisfying.

We are visiting from Texas for a month, and us Texans love our Mexican food and can be quiet picky with our tacos. After being here in Seaside for almost 3 weeks, I was getting the hankering for tacos as we eat Mexican food at least once a week if not more back home. But this night we just left the Columbus Day festival late and didn’t get a pizza so we thought well let’s walk around and get a slice. We found this little gem a on our walk and let’s just say it was a mutual automatic decision to divert previous pizza mission and go in. We ordered the carne asada tacos, chicken tacos and the CAMARONES ALA MEXICANA. The rice and beans were good and not dry and their salsa is really good and fresh. The tacos had just the right garnish and meat and flavor. Husband said the shrimp dish was aweso

I have been coming to Seaside in the summer my entire life. My family orders from other Mexican "inspired" restaurants in the area and for years I have been disappointed with their food. Monte's is a blessing. The moment I stepped foot inside to pick up my food I could tell this place was authentic. The food followed through. My tinga tostadas were one of my favorite meals I have eaten in months. They were absolutely up to the highest quality bar I have for comparison. The quesadillas were also outstanding. The veggie was delicious, though my uncle complained that the shrimp one did not have enough shrimp in it. The tacos all had good tortillas. The carnitas tasted good, it had a full flavor to it. The chicken in the tacos was dry, but the provided sauces were good. You can tell the chips

Always on the hunt for authentic tacos and this place is definitely it!!! So delicious, you won't regret it. I would have gone there every day of my vacation, but sadly we found it on our last night there. Next time, will be back for sure!

I am a Gringo, but kind of an expert with Mexican Food. And my Spouse is from Mexico. We ate here Sunday,11/24/24, around 5:00 p.m., it was our first visit. The food was very good! Pros: On Street Parking;free this time of year, BYOB, clean appearance, Nice decor!, clean bathroom. Server was very efficient, listened and was friendly. Food: Salsas Roja y Verde were good! Could be a bit more spicy ( pica ). Salsa Chipotle was very good, smokey / spicy. Burrito de pollo had much flavor! Torta de Tinga Pollo Chipotle was very good! Guacamole was fresh and very tasty!!! Reasonable prices! Cons: Dining area has close seating if sitting in booth tables. A little less salt in the Burrito would be better. I would recommend this place to friends and family!!! Definitely try the Guacamole. See
