Description

Both Mona's outlets are pure, simple, unabashed breakfast bars. They open early and serve breakfast straight through, adding a a few simple sandwiches and salads at lunch. There's no complication, no ostentation -- just good food served in a very friendly, casual atmosphere. The French toast is good, the egg dishes solid, but the real don't-miss plate is the corned beef hash, the best in the entire city.

2009 | Best Corned Beef Hash

Everyone, even the most hard-core, everything-from-scratch purist, will admit that the best corned beef hash in the world is the stuff that comes straight out of the can -- mushy, smelling like cat food and with that slick white cap of fat on top that would keep the hash fresh even if the can remained unopened for 10,000 years. But the second-best hash (at least in this city) is at Mona's, where an order brings sliced corned beef brisket, cut the size of bathroom tiles and given a fast... More »

While I messed up at Mona's, at least I didn't blow my cover until I went to pay for my last meal there. Which means that for at least for two full meals and nine-tenths of a third, I was still working under my normal, modest cloak of anonymity, s... More »
Mona's

By Jason Sheehan | Thu, July 10, 2008

I'd been having such a good day. A full night's sleep and then some — rare for me, insomniac that I am. Waking late, bumming around the house in sweatpants, in a rush to get precisely nowhere. First cigarette of the day and a mug of green tea on ... More »

Everyone, even the most hard-core, everything-from-scratch purist, will admit that the best corned beef hash in the world is the stuff that comes straight out of the can � mushy, smelling like cat food and with that slick white cap of fat on top that would keep the hash fresh even if the can remained unopened for 10,000 years. But the second-best hash (at least in this city) is at Mona's, where an order brings sliced corned beef brisket, cut the size of bathroom tiles and given a fast sear in the pan, along with deep-fried potatoes, crisp on the surface and soft within like perfect pommes frites, and big chunks of green bell pepper and saut�ed onions. True, it's dangerous to screw with the vital corned beef/potato/fat ratio. And for a moment, this plate will horrify anyone who grew up with the canned stuff and, even today, loves it all out of proportion. But be brave. For scratch hash, Mona's beats every other breakfast bar in the city.

Love the huevos rancheros and the BLT sandwich. The vibe is cool. I like the Monas near the Highlands the best.
