I always get banana nut pancakes and my wife usally get salad with nova scottia smoked salmon which comes with really good warm potato pancakes and sour cream on top she always been very happy with her choices too. the coffee is really good. we' ve been to monaco twice for dinner. the first time I had special Rissotto with wild mushrooms and grilled shrimp on top. that was amazing. the second time i got lamb tagine with chickpeas onion raisin sauce.was very tasty exellent food. I also really like the atmosphere it's adorable and cozy!

nice place.
Wonderful place! I visited recently with my wife and our two children for brunch and had a great experience. They were very accommodating since we had children and even brought them things to color. Also the food is spectacular! I had the egg white omelette and my wife had the Moroccan eggs benedit my childrens order strawberry nut pancake -- all was delicious!
It was a great cozy place -- will definately be back soon

upper west side gem. I've been living in the upper west side for years and Monaco is my favorite place in the neighborhood. It's changed a lot over the years, the food has gotten better and better, the decor is colorful but not overwhelming. The cafe is a fantastic place to hang out! My favorite dish is the lamb tagine, with raisins and onions and couscous. Definitely worth a trip.

great food & service. When I first walked in I really liked the atmosphere I ordered the Greek Salad with Chicken. It was very good! Pretty big size too! My friend ordered the Kobe burger which was a perfect burger! One of the best I've had in a long time! The service was very good! Very friendly! Very nice Monaco

Hidden Gem. I was walking down Amsterdam Ave looking at menus for someplace to eat. The menu looked good but not great and as I was about to walk to the next restaurant I heard some amazing music so I decided to get a drink. Boy am I glad I did. The music was outstanding! So I ordered a couple of appetizers and was knocked off my feet. I was expecting fried calamari and was pleasantly surprised with a wonderful plate of grilled calamari with a white been salad. Remarkably similar to a dish I had in Nice that my wife and I absolutely loved! It was perfectly cooked (my mouth is still watering) just delicious. Now for the criticism - the waiter was a travesty. He was just told us he was a comic and procedded to tell bad joke after bad joke. Hey just leave us alone and let me enjoy my food. To the point that another waitress excused him from the table. For such a great hidden gem I hope the owners read this and get rid of this guy. You have a great spot don't let this shmuck ruin it. A guy like this can destroy a business.

Simple, but quite good. For a neighborhood place, they've got really good food. An interesting menu, some nice appetizers, and tasty main courses. I particularly enjoyed the chicken tagine, which I would go back for anytime.
