The owner of Cafe Montejo understands the importance of unique and personalized experiences; Fernando greets you, his sister cooks, his staff either trained or chosen are always courteous and professional. Fernando continuously takes professional cooking courses in sculptures, homemade pasta, desserts and has his own line of products. His pizzas are amazing with a crust that is just right. Finishing on a memory of one night that we were there and he realized that some of his guests were from Greece; he chose Greek music to ensure they felt welcomed as a personalized experience. We continue to go on a regular basis just to relax and enjoy the experience.
