Monte's Grill and Bar — Restaurant in Sheboygan

Monte's Grill and Bar is a small Indian restaurant connected to the adjoining BP station—not really suitable for a formal date, but a solid option for casual dining or takeout. I ordered the butter chicken and appreciated that they offered a custom spice level. Prices are slightly higher than Curry Corner, but parking is much easier despite the smaller restaurant footprint.

The menu reveals Monte's is affiliated with Spices Restaurant, which shows in the quality. You get proper plates for dine-in service, not just disposable containers, and the presentation was excellent. The butter chicken itself was delicious, though the portion might have been slightly smaller than Curry Corner’s serving size.

Bottom Line:

Slight edge to Curry Corner for value and portions

Spices remains the best formal date option

Chicken was cooked properly, as were the peppers. The jasmine rice was definitely microwaved, but it's rice, so who cares? The onion Pakoda was beautiful. There wasn't a single bit of onion that wan't covered by delicious batter, They were tender, and they pulled apart with ease. The wait was worth the result.

The only issue is that I wish I didn't have to go next door to the BP gas station in order to pay. That was a little...

Amazing option for takeout. Truly a great addition to the neighborhood. Very authentic flavor, and everything I have gotten has been cooked to order and absolutely delicious. The samosas are my favorite, and we pair them with some fried rice and mango lasi. I can't recommend this place enough for the quality of food. The atmosphere is not one that I would chose to sit down and dine, but there are plenty of options for that. Come here if you want fresh, delicious, authentic...
