"The fried Monte Cristo going all-in with both Ham and Turkey plus Swiss and Raspberry Preserves, a rarely seen combination that some will say is true to the dish’s earliest diner origins."

Malcolm X Abram

"The Monte Cristo is a fairly advanced sandwich, what with the added layer of breading and deep frying. When done wrong, it can be a mushy mess, but mine was perfectly made with the breading light, the meat hearty, not too much powdered sugar and also, bacon."

George Taylor

"I was not prepared for how good and filling the sandwich was going to be. The best theme park food has always been at Dollywood, hands down. The sandwich at Melt Bar & Grilled was superb. The berry preserves were perfect and put the Monte Cristo over the top."

Laura DeMarco

"We opted for the absolutely delicious Monte Cristo, honey ham, smoked turkey and Swiss and American cheese deep-fried between two powder-sugar-sprinkled slices of thick bread, with -- wait there's more -- mixed berry preserves for dipping."

Tristan Navera

"The grilled cheese I heard the most about was the “Monte Cristo,” and what an unbelievable thing it is. This one has ham and turkey with Swiss and American cheese. Then, they take the whole thing and fry it. And believe me, a fried grilled cheese sandwich is enormous."
