"my wife and I like to travel to taste new restaurants and the monna lisa was about an hour drive to reach. Unfortunately it is not located in the most notorious part of luton and the parking spaces are difficult and the interior decor flatters with its sophisticated ceilings and walls and false wooden beams back to the 70s. they must, however, save their money for the fresh ingredients and decent wine. we were met by two very nice ladies who showed us to a table, and we gave the menu, notiz – the menu is huge, and it is recommended that they see it on their website first to get a rough idea what they probably order before they arrive. I had the arrabiata huhn, (see photo), and my wife the trout - both cooked exactly as we liked. I ordered brooms and I was informed that they were cooked Italian type, with tweepers and in a tomato sauce, something I didn't have before. and even though they looked a bit strange, see photo, they were actually very delicious. we booked relatiw early, (7 pm), and around 20 pm they were full – so pre book. the most important surprise was when we got the bill. for a 3-course menu, a bottle of wine and two beers, it came to £82.00 – very good value. if I have a complaint – I tried to book the table about their website, which promised to answer by phone within 24 hours – a week later they had not, so I called directly. the first time that the person I spoke with couldn't hear me, the second time that she was breaking up again and the third time when I got the booking – something that needed work in this area. but over all an excellent meal and we will definitely be back. thanks monna lisa."
