Monte Carlo is an old-school steakhouse restaurant in the heart of North Loop. It has white tablecloths, an expansive bar (with the best martinis), and one of my favorite shrimp cocktails. The best part of Monte Carlo for me is their large, sunny patio – perfect for an after-work drink with friends or coworkers. The food isn’t something for me to write home about, however, the vibes and nostalgia of an old school bar is worth a visit for at least a drink
