Fodor's Review:

Not far from Santa Maria Maggiore and one of the most dependable, moderately priced trattorias in the city, Monti favors the cuisine of the Marches, an area to the northeast of Rome. There are surprisingly few places specializing in this humble fare considering there are more marchegiani in Rome than in the whole region of Le Marche. The fare served up by the Camerucci family is hearty and simple, represented by various roasted meats and game and a selection of generally vegetarian timbales and soufflés that change seasonally. The region's rabbit dishes are much loved, and here the timballo di coniglio con patate (rabbit casserole with potatoes) is no exception.

Closed Sunday

The food was adequate to the level of restaurant, and the service was very good (out waiter was adorable and friendly). It would have helped to know that it is closed Sunday and mid-afternoons; our Fodor's guide did not mention either detail so we went three times before we actually ate there.

Lunch and the Owners: Both Beautiful

The brothers who own and operate this charming restaurant are stunning examples of the Roman male--worth the trip even if the food was not outstanding--which it is. Reasonably priced and authentically prepared. Go for anything labeled "flan" as an appetizer--I had caramelized onions in a pool of gorgonzola cream sauce. Perfect pasta and perfectly done steak as well.
