I went to breakfast at the Monument Cafe for the first time a few months ago. There was a little bit of a wait but it was worth it. The food was very fresh. I especially liked the pepper bacon. You can't go wrong with pepper bacon!
I decided to stop by there for dinner and was impressed with that as well. The chicken fried chicken is very good. The waitress told me that the chicken fried steak was really good, too. I decided to order it on my next visit. I wasn't as impressed with this selection. But maybe chicken fried steak isn't my thing.
Also--you need to know the ""trick"" for getting the scrumptious bread. They frequently run out so if they don't bring you any--just ask for it. They will give you some as soon as the next batch is ready.
And be sure to check their website for the daily special and desserts.
As far as all the people complaining about the management, it's really been a non-issue for me since I haven't really had any reason to interact with them. Our servers have all been pleasant and attentive. And--on any given shift--I've counted upwards of 20 employees workin' hard to take care of the customers.
*This next part has nothing to do with the food or service*
The new location is really nice. I just wish they would do something with the interior. It's stark white. No color. I think it would be nice if they painted the place or added some decor. Nothing crazy--maybe just a light green for the walls or...something! It's a little too visually sterile looking for my taste.
But the food makes up for the lack of atmosphere so you owe it to yourself to stop by the next time you're in Georgetown.
