Five stars isn’t enough to rate the quality of the food, the delightfulness of the staff, or the ambiance at the Flying Fish Grill. We’re visiting the area primarily for golf, and our caddie told us that the Flying Fish Grill is his favorite restaurant in the area. We completely understand why! SO many “WOWs” in this meal from start to finish. We had the chips and ginger salsa, Calamari, Crab Tower, Salad, Sea Bass, and hot fudge sundae. Every. Single. Bite was amazing. And the service was the best we’ve experienced in the Monterey area. That’s saying a lot as we’re staying at The Lodge at Pebble Beach. From the very first contact on the phone, to the last bite of dessert we felt like family. Absolutely fantastic experience in every possible way!

Every time I’m in Carmel, Flying Fish Grill is a non-negotiable stop. I absolutely love this place. The food is consistently incredible, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the service is top-notch. It’s the kind of spot that sticks with you long after the meal is over. I always recommend Flying Fish to friends, family, and anyone heading to Carmel. It’s just that good. If you haven’t been, do yourself a favor and make a reservation. You won’t be disappointed!

Probably one of the best service Ive experienced recently. Everyone is extremely warm and pleasant. The food tasted incredible as well. The only thing that could be improved is the credit card fee, which was a bit of a surprise. But everything else was just perfect and would definitely back. Its a gem in Carmel.

Excellent abalone. Great Chilean Sea Bass. The artichoke was very good, ane the fish cakes are highly recommended.
Flying Fish is hard to find so it's very much a locals spot. Been coming for over 20 years and eat here 2-3 times during our month long stay in Carmel.
Food is consistent and fantastic. The menu never changes because there is no reson to change it. I've had everything on the menu (except the abalone....I dislike Abalone).
Staff are great.

Amazing food. We tried the pasta plate, and the shrimp curry soup, and the aha tuna. Everything was perfect. The customer service was amazing. They are very friendly and welcoming.
