Decent, but expensive.

The food is good, but they need to work on lowering the prices.

A burger, fries, and a drink comes
out to almost thirty bucks with tax and the obligatory LA tip.

Fun times

Sometimes you just want to smash some vegan junk food with no regrets. Monty's will help you with that.

Limited menu which is kind of nice to prevent the analysis paralysis from setting in.

Got the chicken sandwich and a root beer float because where else are you going to get a vegan float? The milkshakes looked good too, but those can be had in any major city.

Pricing was decent. Lots of seating. Food came out fast. Good jams playing.

Nashville hot dry rub tenders!

Ordered: Double Cheeseburger, Nashville hot dry rub tenders with side of habanero sauce and a sparkling strawberry lemonade.

It was past midnight and was in the area looking for something filling, was glad to see Monty’s nearby. I’d had a long day and the staff was helpful in guiding me with my order. The double cheeseburger was like a nice diner double cheeseburger, the cheese on it was nice and melty and the pickles on it gave it a good texture variation. I had ordered the Nashville hot dry rub tenders and was hesitant because I normally prefer a wet sauces up tender/wing, the Nashville dry rub was amazing! The side of habernero allowed me to have a sauced up bite if I wanted it. I would come back for the tenders with the Nashville dry rub for sure. The strawberry lemonade was refreshing and they have free refills so I refilled my cup to go. Check it out if you like diner style eats or love a good flavorful chicken tender.

Pros: Nashville hot dry rub tenders!, Free refills on the lemonades!, Open Late!

Great for late night bite

If you fancy a dirty burger, fries/tots then Monty’s is the spot. It’s delicious and perfect if you want a late satisfying bite. I also like they do a small size in the milkshakes too! As I always struggle with standard sized ones.

Their vegan chicken is great too.

Pros: Great vegan junk food , Open late

Best vegan burger spot, but too expensive

The burgers shakes sauces and fries/tots here are all great.
My go to is the Monty’s single cheeseburger burger and it’s delicious. As a burger spot in LA it’s probably the best, with nomoo.
Only negative is it’s kind of insane how expensive it is. A small meal for 2 can easily hit $60…would be 5 star but I just find the price crazy. If the ambiance in the place was better too I could forgive it but it’s no nicer than a fatburger or something pretty low end.

Love the hardcore references

We traveled all the way from Brazil to try the Almighty Monty's. It has exceeded our expectations by far. Super tasty shakes, great burgers and the hardcore hints at the decor are a blast. We loved it and we're planning to go back again.

Pros: Juicy big burgers, Great shakes, Friendly staff

amazing

i got the single cheeseburger, animal fries, and oreo 1/2 shake and it was sooooo good. the best animal fries i’ve ever had (even better than in-n-out) and i used to work at in-n-out before going vegan so i know what i’m talking about lol. and i loved that they have a 1/2 shake option! the oreo shake was so good and it wasn’t too sweet or too much

Good vegan burgs

Montys are consistently great. They've changed their buns to a more brioche style, and it's definitely improved them alot. Their tots are to die for, and their house made sodas are fire. Shame they got rid of their vanilla soda😒

It’s cool

I love that this place is open until midnight. Their vbeef patties are so thin, I felt compelled to ask for another to satiate me. And the top bun is so big it’s almost 50% burger, 50% top bun. It needs a bit of improvement imo. Would eat here if it was the only v option, other than that it’s ok

A recipe change subtracted a gluten-free item from the menu. I had a float.

I was intending to get an order of the chicken nuggets with the “chicken” texture supplied by Daring Foods as I was excited that Monty’s had added a gluten-free item as a main meal choice from when I had it several months ago for the first time. I was ordering online for a pickup and it seemed that the item was no longer gluten-free on their online menu, so I decided to not order it. There was a sign on the counter inside stating that the chicken tenders now contained gluten and Monty’s taketh away a gluten-free recipe.

The gluten-free food items on the menu currently are: the Dogpile, fries, and tots. Sauces and a salad without croutons or chicken would be gluten-free.

There are more gluten-free float, drink, and shake options. did order a ginger beer float and it was a treat. The contrast of the zing of the ginger flavor and the creaminess of the Oatly vanilla ice cream was a good taste. The tastes really mixed together for a great effect when the cup was almost finished and the ice cream was melting and there was a little ginger beer flavor still mixed in.

For the decor, There is a giant framed photo on the wall with Joaquin Phoenix and Rooney Mara having some Monty’s burgers with the Best Actor Oscar statuette sitting on the ground between them after Joaquin got it for Joker earlier in the night. I appreciate the overall diner aesthetic for the inside and the bright color scheme on the outside; the building front really stands out on Sunset making it hard to miss if you are trying to find the place.

Pros: Having a dog as the restaurant’s mascot. , A merch rack with clothing items to browse., Travis Barker collab’ing on the matcha shake.

Cons: No gluten-free bun option., Adding gluten to the chicken nugget recipe., The music is loud and could be a pro or con.
