I have dined here during time visiting the Monterey area. All in all I would say it is a really…read moregood place to go for a great steak without a bunch of extra sauces or anything like that. It just highlights the meat. They have some serving options where it is served on a warm hot plate to keep the steak warm . Service is good, but I am also an American so my communication is limited with the weight staff as far as ambience goes it is a really sharp looking place that lives up to what the price is set at and a really nice steakhouse to go and enjoy a nice dinner at. I would visit again.

Throw in the elegant…read moredecor, live music and great company and you couldn't ask for more They start you off with a selection of four different salsas and tostadas. Then we had the opportunity to share the Coliflor al Grill (which is also fried by the way!), Salmon al Chipotle Balsámico, and for dessert the Pan de Elote with Glorias ice cream. Everything was super tasty from start to finish. The servers keep an eye on you and make sure to take empty plates off the table refill your drinks and offer you more things as soon as you're done. The restaurant is located in a nice plaza where other restaurants are also located. Convenient parking on lower levels.

Amalia came with very high recommendations from friends and Yelp, unfortunately we had a different…read moreexperience. Upon making our reservation we were not informed there would be a time limit for our dinner. Nevertheless, upon arrival we were told we only had 2 hours at our table since they would use it. And sure enough two hours later we were asked to leave even though we were still ordering drinks. It was not as if we were just loitering without paying. Really rude in our opinion. Then there was the food. If I had to describe it in one word it would be: uneventful. We tried the chicharron de rib-eye and another steak as well as three sides. The quality of the meat was lacking and not well cooked. The sides were bland. It might be the fact that I had such high expectations that I found this place a disappointment. Drinks were nothing out of the ordinary. In general, overpriced for what it is. Apparently the place doubles as a night club.Perhaps if you only go for drinks or at times where there's music it might be different. But if you are looking for exceptional food, it's best to stick with La Nacional. If you want to splurge best to do it in style and with great quality.

I went to the Foodbox twice during my stay in Monterrey and both times it was excellent. And both…read moretimes I got Billy Pickles and Fries. Sorry but it was too good to not do it again. The dipping sauce that comes with the fries is amazing. Not sure what's in it but WoW it's like a party in your mouth. Both of my servers were very nice and patient as I used Google Translate on the menu. The place has a cool vibe and was playing an NFL game once when I came in. I ate at American lunchtime which was a little after they opened so I think I was the only one in the place both times. Highly recommend this place. Monterrey has a lot of great burger joints but this place definitely holds it own. If you think America makes good burgers pop into The Foodbox and let them show you how they do. Thanks guys for the delicious meal and fun dinning experience

Wow! I did not expect to get a burger and fries in Monterrey that is better than most in the US,…read morebut I did. Recommended by a friend native to Monterrey, and it did not disappoint. I had the King James with fries, and my wife had the Lewis with onion rings. All of it was great. Our server, Karen, was extremely patient and didn't mind that we both had to use a translator app. The ambiance is nothing special, so one star off for that. Check this place out--you won't be disappointed.

Recordé que Sierra Madre es calidad y buen servicio. Así que pare aquí en la sucursal Insurgentes Esta vez pedí unos tacos de sirloin. La carne estuvo más que suculenta. La orden trae 4 tacos con tortilla recién hecha y más gruesa que lo normal. La carne está acompañada de champiñones , chile chilaca, pico de gallo, queso manchego y cebolla. Fui un sábado a las 5pm y estaba lleno el lugar... Plato bien servido. Yo con hambre solo me acabe 3 tacos... Deli, deli, deliiiii Felicidades!!!

The food, the service,…read moreand the extra treats (doughnuts, croissants, bread) they give you at the beginning of breakfast made this place amazing. I ordered a chilaquiles Norteños entree and it was delicious. I also tried my friend's spinach scrambled and liked it (but mine was better). Everyone had good things to say about their food. The green juice my friend ordered was very natural and tasty. I'd recommend this place for larger groups as it definitely is a large place. It's also very close in walking distance to a lot of shopping and touristic areas like Barrio Antiguo.
