My brother came to visit me here in Monterey, and so I took him to my favorite restaurant on Fisherman's Wharf. It just keeps getting better! (And it's been exceptional for a long time!) Owner Chris Shake is gracious, his staff knows everything about the vast menu, the wine list is priced better than any I've seen (and is HUGE), and the seafood they serve is deemed "Sustainable" by the Monterey Bay Aquarium's SEAFOOD WATCH program. The is a "Don't Miss" dining experience while in Monterey!

We were visiting Monterey and went to this restaurant for the first time. It was amazing. The halibut is unbelievable, easily the most tender and best sauce ever anywhere. Pairing with sweet potatoes is genius. They have great wine at decent prices also. We had the VIP card from our hotel and received an excellent calamari and egglplant appetizer. Everything was delicious. The atmosphere is romantic, they have tables overlooking the water. There are candles on each table and they handed out single roses to the women customers. The service was outstanding, very attentive without being annoying or overbearing in any way. We would definitely come back here when visiting Monterey again.

On my first visit to monterey a friend and I chose to eat here based on some of the reviews and we were very pleased. The owner stands outside with samples of clam chowder and is very polite and welcoming and so are the staff. The food is delicious (probably the best clam chowder i've had). I highly recommend this place!
