Little Italy’s Monello Rolls Out Italian Street Food Menu Just In Time For Summer

Monello, the always delicious Milanese kitchen in Little Italy, recently rolled out a new ‘Italian Street Food’ menu just in time for summer!

The menu offers a more casual, counter service-style that isn’t as heavy as your typical Italian lunch – making it a perfect option during the warm summer months. Just walk up to a window to place your order, and then find a seat anywhere inside and your food will be brought to you.

We got an early taste, and it was just as good as you’d expect from one of the best Italian restaurants in town.

Monello’s grilled octopus – amazing!

 

Salmon Flatbread Bites

 

Homemade gelato!

This service is a great way to explore smaller portions of a variety of Italian dishes that are easily shared with friends over a glass of wine and good conversation.

Include lunch at Monello in your plans this summer – we bet you’ll love it!.

See you there!,
