“What a gluten free find!!! Not only was this bakery 100% dedicated gluten free they had dairy free and vegan options. Every employee we encountered was helpful and kind. They were able to make us a dairy free breakfast sandwiches which were heavenly. The muffins were large and so moist and delicious. Cupcakes were so good it was hard to believe they were gluten free. But can I tell you about their vegan scones?! I have NEVER had a scone that wasn’t dry until I tried them here at Neces. How do they do it? When I could eat gluten I remember scones being dry lol. You will NOT be disappointed! Cannot wait to take a trip back.“

“What a place!We ordered Polpo alla griglia and Burrata con piselli for our appetizers. The octopus was cooked perfectly with the right balance of flavors, and the burrata was light and well-balanced with asparagus.For our main course, we had Linguine con aragosta and Rigatoni alla buttera. The pasta and meats were cooked and seasoned just right!The craft cocktails were unique and delicious, and the perfect balance of flavors.Thanks to Andres and Christian for their drink and food recommendations, as well as their excellent customer service!They tend to get busy quickly after opening, so it would be best to make a reservation!“

“My boyfriend and I have no complaints about this restaurant! This is our second time at the Fish Hopper, we’ve come everytime we visit Monterey together! A little pricey, as we’re young, but very delicious and we love the view wherever we sit! I got the shrimp and crab roll sandwich, and my boyfriend got the crispy jumbo prawns. Mine was delicious and filling! My boyfriend said his was good but he felt like he could have eaten a little more. Overall the restaurant has a nice vibe, last time we sat at the back near the big window and were able to see otters swimming! That’s a 5 star experience in itself :)“

“My FAVORITE bfast place! We are repeat customers, even though we are not locals. If we are close by, this is a must stop. Never a disappointment. Thank you to all the staff at First Awakenings and the owner for serving up the best start to a day!“

I can tell chef was put all his heart in every single dish and created it incredible with the best ingredients! I definitely going back again when i visit Carmel . And sorry took me so long to review this and i think this restaurant deserves my 5 stars reviews.“

“I wanted to write the perfect review but I won't be able to do that. The people there were so nice and so warm. The location is in an old house in historic downtown Pacific Grove. But I can't let this go, the prices were high (as expected) and then they did the old trick of, "Did you want chorizo with that"....without telling you it's a $6 upcharge for two teaspoons added on top of your $17 plate of chiliquilies. So for $23, you get a full plate, I mean piled high of tortilla chips covered in a homemade red sauce (delicious). A table or teaspoonful of queso fresco per the recipe (delicious), two fried eggs, and sour cream on the side, (awesome). Most recipes for this dish that I've eaten will offer a choice of protein. Chorizo is a very common breakfast protein for this recipe. I would argue that it should be part of the recipe regardless but if you ask people, "Do you want chorizo on that?", many will say yes for the reasons I mentioned above. But when the bill comes watch out. It was a $6 upcharge to my $17 choice of breakfast. If it's an upcharge you have to tell me in advance. "Do I want it?", is one question. "Do I want it for the price you will charge me?", has to be a separate question. If it's some amount that high, an extra 1/3 of the price of my breakfast, then you shoudl feel extremely obligated to tell me how much. Don't make me feel like an a-hole bringing up your sketchy business upcharge practices to you in the middle of a super-packed breakfast/brunch rush when you hand me the bill. I didn't bring it up but I wanted to, very badly. As good as the meal was the experience left a bad taste in my mouth and more than a week later I'm still shaking my head about it. For a place that thrives on tourist and word-of-mouth business, there's no reason for this type of shady business antics which leads someone like me who otherwise really enjoyed this place to go to the trouble of leaving a bad review. I probably won't go back due to this.“

“My appetizer (artichoke) was disappointing. My entree, a vodka sauce rigatoni, was good because I chose the option to add burrata cheese at extra cost (actually the waiter misheard me but I’m glad he did), and the temperature difference between the cold cheese and piping hot pasta made it a unique (in the best way) and rewarding dish even if the value wasn’t great. Why then do I give five stars? The desserts are out of this world. Their mixed berry cake is one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. If it weren’t for dessert it would probably be a 3-4 that I’d want to give another try; with desert it is a 5.“

“We’ve been visiting here from the Chicago area to celebrate our significant wedding anniversarys for 40 years and have never been disappointed.Chris and his team (tonight it was Iman) demonstrate a consistent focus towards providing the patron with an outstanding overall dining experience.We very much look forward to our next visit!“

“We had oysters, clam chowder, veal piccata and pesto prawns with penne pasta. All were delicious. The oysters were large and flavorful. The clam chowder was rich & creamy. The veal was tender and delicious. I would have liked more basil flavor in the prawns dish however it was very tasty also. We had a cabernet sauvignon and a pinot noir. Both were excellent. A good value. The view from the upstairs dining room was wonderful.“

“The food here is really great and the menu is huge! There are many foods that are rarely found as vegan options, so it's a lot of fun for a vegan to try them. Service is friendly and fast food is made to order. The empanaditos are also very good, and the desserts are also very delicious. This restaurant is centrally located and can be busy at times. If the parking lot is full, there is usually free street parking just a block or two away.Vegetarian options: Restaurant is completely vegan“

“We had an amazing 3-course lunch with a fresh frisée salad and soufflés for the main course and dessert. The service and the meal were top notch - an experience. The restaurant has a fine French ambiance with beautiful decor and a lot of natural light. I look forward to coming again soon!“

“this restaurant opened about 2 years ago and we have dined there regularly. we particularly like that it is a small and cozy restaurant. the personnel are very friendly and attentive and the menu is changed with the seasons. food quality is always top notch. we like the mussels (very fresh), duck liver pate, asparagus soup and also they make delicious gelato in house. parking at that area of pacific grove is a breeze. prices are normal and wine list is also complete.“

“I am from Seaside and I have to tell you this has to the best breakfast in Monterey County by far I will return“

“Fantastic sandwiches!! Tried the muffaletta and the godfather - both were delicious and huge. Enough for 2 meals for 2 people. Store has a great selection of sodas/soft drinks. Locally made baklava available - also fantastic. Highly recommend.“

“The best falafel I’ve ever eaten. Laid back atmosphere off the beaten path—nice outdoor seating. My husband enjoyed his lamb gyro, everything was freshly prepared and we could taste the care that went into our meal. The chef/owner made sure to make us feel welcome…we definitely hope to stop by again if we are back visiting the bay.“

“Very delicious! Our server Rose was great!“

“I’ll offer a better than expected review. Our party of five went for Sunday brunch. 1/2 wait for an outdoor table. Excellent Southwest eggs Benedict; chicken fettuccini; fruit salad and Cinnamon toast special with eggs. Chocolate Oreo cake for dessert. Excellent service for a relaxing Sunday. Glad to return and recommend. Cheers!“

“This place had one of those "OMG moments" where I took that first bite and was in heaven! The orange chicken is really something special. Helen is the owner and cook and she has come up with a lemon and orange juice concoction authentic sauce that will knock your socks off. Absolutely amazing. This was THE BEST orange chicken I have ever had.I also ordered the chicken fried rice, which was great and the crab rangoon wontons were awesome as well. Everything is made from scratch and it shows.It was getting close to closing time when I walked in and everyone was very kind to me and said I could sit down and have dinner. I did not have to wait long for the food. The staff was super friendly and I was grateful for that.This place deserves the highest marks possible. Everything was perfect. Highly recommend.Vegetarian options: Noodles, vegetables, sauces, soups, etc.Parking: Around the corner, there is a free parking lot with many spaces. There are a couple of spaces in front of the restaurant as well.“

“Very nice place and people excellent food and service highly recommend“

“Happy hour rolled into dinner and both were delicious !“

“Amazing food and service. If you need gluten free options then this is the place! GF garlic bread, pasta, and more. soooo good!“

“Kind of a hidden gem. I have lived here five years and never walked back into this patio area. We went during winter so I predict the patio experience will be even better. Food was great. Still having a hard time with such expensive tacos- so used to street tacos being affordable- we will come back.“

“Very tasty breakfast, the pancakes were outstanding and the portion was more than large. We were there on a Saturday morning and the restaurant was already full. We put ourselves on the list of the nice employee at the counter and then walked around the block for 20 minutes to get our seat.“

“We just love the Treehouse and we can enjoy it again since the majority of tourist left. Impossible to find parking at times. But when you get in, food and atmosphere is top.“

“Nice place to have family gatherings..very nice restaurant and foods they serve..“

“Fun fact, I love coffee. Each time I'm in a new city I like to hunt down the best coffee house in town. With that said Yelp referred me to Captain + Stoker. The shop is designed into an auto body shop which was super cute. Customer service was awesome and as I could see this coffee house was a crowd pleaser and many patrons lined up to either a quick bite or just to relax and enjoy your cup of coffee.“

“Great food, view and service.“

“We enjoyed our visit and the food very much. Best Carbonara I‘ve ever had.“

“Had a lovely breakfast in the restaurant in the morning and then went to the bar later that day for drinks. We asked for a tequila old fashioned cocktail and the lovely bar man Luis made us one of his own creations. He called it a Mexican old fashioned and it was honestly the best cocktail we have ever tasted. Luis is a very skilled mixologist and hopefully his Mexican old fashioned will become a regular drink at the C bar.“

“My partner and I had a pleasant visit at this quaint space. Although the table we sat at did not afford much privacy, the service was quick and the food was enjoyable. I ordered the lemon blueberry pancakes with a side of bacon and eggs. The pancakes were decadent , so so good! The bacon was perfectly crispy and the eggs cooked perfectly over medium. My partner ordered the huevos rancheros, which she really enjoyed. I would return to try more of their dishes.“

“Phenomenal sweets - wasn’t even in the mood and I got a cookie and financier and they were some of the best I’d ever had. Really aesthetically beautiful spot with a super pleasant service. Delicious food - soup and sandwiches were really really good and the portions were big. Understand the line to get in now!“

“I was in town for only three days, but I had to come back here a second time because it was that good. I came in on a very rainy day and got the banana caramel and coffee flavored split-scoop ice cream, and it was hands down one the best-tasting ice cream I ever had. If you're looking for things to do and eat, add this place to your itinerary, you won't regret it!Dietary restrictions: They offer vegan flavors as well.“

“One of our favorite places breakfast. We're never disappointed by the food or the staff.“

“Dinner was delicious! Every bite was divine. If you are in the area it is a must !“

“Loved it’s previous incarnation, Crema, in Pacific Grove, love it still at Point Pinos. Friendly servers, good food.“

“Don’t let the building fool you, this is a great pizza place! Had the BBQ chicken flat bread pizza, the garlic cheese bread, and a pepperoni pizza. It was all cooked perfectly. Came out quick and hot! I would definitely recommend coming here! The staff was very nice as well! 9/10“

“An unassuming location for good sushi. This restaurant is a great little spot for quality sushi with excellent service. Although this place is small, they manage to provide efficient and attentive service to more guests than it seems possible. I came here with my wife and two kids a little after 5:30pm on a weeknight. The place was already busy but there were a couple of tables left so we did not have to wait. There were a few seats at the sushi bar as well. But shortly after we were seated, new customers kept coming in and a small wait list was starting. My wife and I both opted for the sushi dinner with an assorted 7 pieces of nigiri along with our choice of a Maki Roll; there were many to choose from it was tough to decide. I narrowed my choice down to the salmon skin roll, and it was great. The meal came with soup and salad as well. We also started with an order of the fried calamari. My kids ordered a few different cut rolls. Everything was very good and the service was wonderful. Between the three servers they made sure we had everything we needed and promptly cleared our table of any unwanted dishes. Overall this was a very pleasant dinner experience and I would highly recommend this place if you’re in the area.“

“Amazing Mbjeu! Try it! Wonderful staff and their cocido is great too“

“Amazing breakfast of avocado toast on some of the best bread, really rich and delicious yogurt, scone and vegan frittata. The quality of ingredients used in their food is exceptional; you can taste it in the food. It’s just a short walk from Cannery Row and totally worth it. We bought their summery strawberry jam after tasting it in their cannery annex which has an incredible variety of jams. Wish I could find something like this closer to home.Vegetarian options: My son who is vegan would LOVE this place. So many great choices for him.“

“Loved the happy hour! Great food and drinks!! The service was fantastic!“

“The food is absolutely amazing, especially for the price. I haven't been able to find a better quesabirria taco in Monterey. The service is always very friendly, they're more stand-off-ish so if you don't like casual dining this might not be your place to go. They're very nice though. They ALWAYS have good music playing. There aren't a whole lot of tables so be cautious about visiting while they're busy. Fortunately this is a great to-go meal! I highly recommend this restaurant to any resident or traveler alike!“

“Enjoyed a nice afternoon @ "A Taste of Monterey"! Whether you come for the food & wine, or just wonderful wines...make it a definite visit. I'm sure they can be busy (so check on a reservation), but we were lucky enough to walk right in. Attached is a view from our seats.“

“Fantastic food and service!! So delicious!! Portions were generous. A little off the beaten path. A hidden gem. We’ll be back for sure. Healthy and hearty.Vegetarian options: Falafel, hummus, lentils, beans, fries, moreWheelchair accessibility: Ramp in and lots of space for wheelchair“
