    I had dinner at Monarch with a friend before seeing a show at the Orpheum. We were seated immediately and service was prompt. My friend was pleased to hear that she could get gluten-free pasta and ordered it with chicken. I ordered the risotto with shrimp. Her order came sans chicken and mine came with salmon instead of shrimp, but both were quickly remedied. Unfortunately, my friend's chicken was too dry to eat, but she enjoyed the pasta. My shrimp risotto was good; I only wish that restaurants would take the tail off of the shrimp before serving. We made it to the theatre with plenty of time to spare.
