After tallying the ballots, the results are in for everything from
favorite antique store to favorite taqueria. Presented here are
those winners.
On behalf of The Monitor and our readers, congratulations to all those
organizations selected. Our readers’ love you and as proof they took
time from their daily grind to cast their vote in your favor. Furthermore,
thank you to all those readers who voted.
But more importantly, hats off to the Valley’s entire business and
entertainment community. Your hard work has created this
wonderful, vibrant area in which we live. Through your dedication

services. Business is booming and so is innovation.
At The Monitor, we’re proud to stand up beside you and serve this
