All the food we had was great. The chips were thin and crispy exactly as we like them. Wait staff was very attentive. Very good experience here. Will be back.

Well established restaurant where locals eat. We have made it a "must stop" for many years when we visit Florala, Alabama and NW Florida. It is only a few miles from the highest point in Florida - Britton Hill at Lakewood.

This place is consistently very good but Feb 23, 2025 the food was exceptionally GREAT. The chips and salsa were really good. We had eaten Mexican food at other places and the salsa was very salty tomato paste but Monterrey's is always good, today it was so good we ate 2 baskets of hot fresh chips and 3 salsa bowls that were as good as home made. When we finished our meal, pictured here, we were so stuffed but happy HAPPY Patrons. Staff, excellent, owners Son was there too, an exceptionally intelligent handsome young man, very friendly. Do yourself a favor, eat here, the lunch menu is reasonable enough to spend your gas money to come to Florala!!! Oh, and the refried beans, perfect, fresh, tasty. Sunday Mar 30, 2025 had the Carnitas it was spectacular, here is a picture. Moist, flavorful, it really brightened my whole weekend!

My wife and son’s food was decent, but the chicken chimichanga was one of the best I’ve ever had.
