Our favourite restaurant in the Borders, we go most weekends ! Antonio and his staff are excellent and the food is always fabulous. We had our wedding reception here in May, we wanted an Italian feast which would be relaxed with lots of very good Italian wine.... and it was exactly what we got. The restaurant looked beautiful and my wedding cake was spectacular. Antonio made it himself and we have never tasted anything like it before. I would highly recommend monte casino to all !!! Especially if you are looking for somewhere different for a special occasion - Antonio and all the staff certainly know how to look after you
To be honest I never really leave reviews, but tonight I left Monte Casino and felt I had to, the whole experience is something I've never came across before and the food was spectacular, such a friendly atmosphere, good to see all staff smiling and engaging with customers, a true gem � of a restaurant in the borders! Have now found my new favourite place to eat out. Excellent ��
Visited this restaurant with some work colleagues for a evening meal. Everything about this place was amazing the food was outstanding and the service was top notch. All the staff were super friendly and very welcoming. Definitely worth visiting this little gem if your around the area.
Also there is plenty of parking at the restaurant too. We plan to visit again next time we are working near 100%
Lovely welcome from amazing staff, even had a photo with the owner! Very accomodating to our children. The food was superb, real home cooked Italian. Will deffo be back.
If you want great authentic Italian food cooked to perfection by Italian chefs and served by Italian staff then this is the best place to go. The food here is amazing and this is up there with a restaurant we visited in Rome. I cannot praise this place highly enough. Just excellent.
Having had an awful experience at the Paolo restaurant in Galashiels, we were beginning to think we would never find a good Italian restaurant near our new home in the Borders, then along came Monte Casino!! What a wonderful gem this place is.. the food was outstanding, the staff were really friendly, the service excellent and the atmosphere was cosy and non pretentious. Without a doubt, this is our new “Go To” place to eat. Outstanding!
I’ve been here a few times for dinner, and food service and drinks have always been amazing! Tonight was out for a walk, kids fell asleep in the buggy so seized the opportunity to get a drink and something to eat! Despite the kitchen being closed (it was after 9) we were given a variety of nibbles (olives, breads, even bruschetta) and got some lovely wine! Food and hospitality is second to none! (And outdoor seating area is perfect for a wee wine and bite to eat) Absolutely amazing place- so kind and welcoming
Gorgeous genuine italian food, highly recommended. Xxxx
We had an excellent dining experience here for my husband's birthday. The food was delicious, fresh and served piping hot. The ambience in the restaurant was great. The staff were very attentive, with a very special thank you to Elaine. For lovers of Italian food our visit was absolutely spot on.
Absolutely amazing eating experience. Best Italian meal I've had in ages. Staff were brilliant
Absolutely brilliant place to eat.
Cant fault food, service or atmosphere.
Will return agsin
Doesn't look much from the outside on a dark night but amazing once you walk through the door. You're warmly greeted by staff and ushered passed the open kitchen and wee bar through to beautifully decorated dining area. Heaps of choice on the menu and a few specials of the day. We opted for pizza and pasta special. Both were absolutely delicious. Big glasses of cold Peroni on tap and Italian merlot washed the food down nicely. Service was friendly and efficient. Definitely will be back again.
My wife and I have been in Melrose for a weeks holiday. It is our last day and treated ourselves to a wonderful meal at the restaurant. Staff very friendly atmosphere bril and food excellent. Thank you
Not so impressed with the food when you expect authentic Italian. But good enough. More impressive was the staff serving us. Patient and service minded indeed. Quite large place with nice interior. A short walk from Melrose plaza. Gluten-free alternatives.
Excellent food. Unfortunately I did not notice a service charge had been put on my bill. I then added a 10% tip the waitress naughtily accepted it. Beware
Fab find whilst visiting the area. Lovely dinner. Couldn't fault it. Def recommended 👌
Beautiful as always. Great food, tasty and great service. Wonderful atmosphere
