Experience Through Their Eyes

Stopped in for a pie but got sold into a plate. Plate was fantastic, unlike most Rochester places who all use elbows the pasta was drool worthy. Homemade is the way to go if I would own a parlor. Unique and tasty. My only regret would be not asking for extra meat hot sauce. Will def be back... To my fridge too for another 3 mouthfuls

Great food! It's a small family owned pizzeria. Just a few tables to sit at. Love the people. Comparable prices. Love the medium thin crust pizza. Awesome steak subs. Love, love, Love the fried mushrooms. Definitely worth going to. Employees are hard working.

Great family owned and operated restaurant. The chicken parm sub is the best I've ever had!!! Tender chicken and the red sauce is awesome too. There is a smaller area to eat inside. Whenever I'm in Honeoye Falls I make it a point to stop at Montesano's!!!

Absolutely delicious pizza! You can tell the ingredients are fresh and the cheese! Omg the cheese pull with the first slice was just *muah* The garlic bread is made on a nice and fluffy loaf with a great distribution of garlicy butter and cheese! Would definitely recommend!

Amazing! Nothing like homemade sauce from the best tomatoes grown in California, along with homemade sausage with wonderful fennel flavoring. Well worth the 6 mile detour off I-90! There's a sweet outdoor eating area. Don't let the small restaurant fool you. Montesano's delivers generous portions, big taste and the love put into the cooking from large hearts. Reminds me of the little Italian restaurants in my home town of Eat Boston. The best food ever!

Everytime I go in there I feel like I'm at home because you see the owner and then you see mama. That to me is where the good food is. I'm Italian american . I know just a little bit about pizza and the ragu the cheese and the love that goes into making the semolina ... Now today I had the melanzana (eggplant) panino (sangwich) and he looked at me and smiled and said " you're gonna like the eggplant" immediately what came to my mind and out my mouth "grandma?" He said "you know it". my grandma viola would make the but it was her mother's,mother's,mother's recipe... you get it... same here... you can taste it. You close your eyes and dream of a time when you were little tugging at Nani's leg as she'd would cut me a hunk of the parmesano reggiano and I loved it with and out the kitchen I ran as she rolled the cavatele. This place is just a good local spot ... I'll stop now because I'll write a book about this place. The sauce , the dough, everything.... and the bread for your panino is the best..
