Simone MaccaferriJuly 26, 2015Very elegant restaurant with a fantastic view. Quite expensive, but very good quality and attentive service. I had the baked oyster, and the excellent cioppino paired by a good glass of Chardonnay
Sandra HerreraApril 23, 2018The crab bisque was a hit and the stuffed lobster with crab. Amazing! And kid friendly too. Service was on point.
Christine DNovember 21, 2014We loved this place, the ambiance is great and even in the night, you can see the lights of Santa Cruz. Service was good and the food was great! Nice sea view in the day! Try the terrasse for romance!
MissesVee www.missesvee.comFebruary 15, 2015Great service at the bar & from our waitress. But we were not greeted like everyone else. I can make a whole lot of assumptions. Especially when the manager (Gelispe) was as nonchalant as he was.
eric bornemannJuly 5, 2022Food is pretty decent for a big hotel, but the main reason to go here is to eat outside on the bay as the otters and kayaks swim by. Ahi and salmon are solids bets.
Samuel PadillaMarch 28, 2015Sitting out on the patio with the sound of the crashing waves and great view toward the pacific. Taste of the Clam Chowder Bread bowl was comfort.
Sarah RNovember 27, 2014Sit outside and enjoy scenic views. Try the chicken or filet mignon. Good coffee, too. Excellent service, especially from Colleen.
John KiddeSeptember 25, 2017Awesome ocean view, bar area itself is small but you’re not here for that. Take a step outside and take in the scenery with your drink.
Sit at the bar with Jesse. One of the all time best bartenders!!
ClaudiaDecember 14, 2011The view is INCREDIBLE... the brunch is delicious, generous servings and the freshly squeezed orange juice is to die for.
For the best views in Monterey come and sit on the patio!!! Lunch or dinner and the best drinks.
- Come check out the new menu! All fresh sustainable seafood and we support the seafood watch program!
Calamari paired with Anchor Steam beer and a table out on the patio is the way to go.
Emily ShepardApril 16, 2012Hard to find but worth it for the ocean view. You can get there through the hotel.
Jamshed WadiaSeptember 16, 2012Awesome place for a romantic dinner. Our server Nicholas was awesome!- Oliver HDecember 30, 2015Service is friendly but food comes out slowly. Food is ok but not great (sole was a bit bland) for the price. Strangely was given disposable chopsticks with my to go dessert (ice cream).
Check in with Anna while you are waiting on your table on the rail. Go for the clams in chardonnay. Don't feed the seagulls!
Jess RMay 8, 2014Bugs, slow service but the views are great. The bread is delicious but the clam chowder was ok
KristinaDecember 28, 2016Horrible service but spectacular views. Skip the red chowder, tastes like minestrone with clams.
Bárbara RksDecember 28, 2015Uno de los mejores sitios que fui. Combinación de ubicación ,atención y principalmente calidad y variedad de las comidas. Muy recomendable. Las porciones abundantes.
