My girlfriend and I went to Monk's Cafe last night for dinner, and we were both extremely disappointed by this restaurant. The food we ordered was basically inedible. It was overpriced, had low quality ingredients, and was poorly prepared. For our entrees, I ordered a rack of lamb, which was probably the worst rack of lamb I've ever eaten. It was completely overdone -- tough as leather and tasting not much better. My girlfriend ordered a trout dish which seemed fresh enough, but it turned out to be utterly bland and tasteless. The sauce was supposed to be beer-based, but it just came out watery and flavorless.
Overall, this is one of the most overrated restaurants I've ever been to. After my experience last night, I do not expect to ever return to this restaurant.
Pros: good beer selection
Cons: overrated, overpriced, inedible food
