Covey Grill

While the service and ambience were very good, there were several shortcomings in our dining experience. First, when I made the reservation several days in advance I had stated that this was a birthday celebration and there was nothing to indicate that it was so for the entire evening. As for the food, upon our arrival at 6:30, we were told that one appetizer was sold out and no longer available. It so happens that it was my first choice and I can understand if it were 8 or 9'clock, but it is unacceptable for the kitchen and the chef to run out so early. Then one of my dinner companions had ordered her beef entree to be served medium rare. When it arrived, it was very rare and had to be returned to the kitchen for correction. While the food presentations were lovely, both those experiences detracted from our evening. Our server was very good and did his very best to assist us. I was very impressed with the ambience and the general idea of "Love Thy Neighbor" dinners, but I might be hesitant considering it is not inexpensive, to return.

Wednesday night is Prix Fix menu can be interesting and a good value if you like the starter, main dish and desert options. There are only a few choices so I would recommend looking at the menu before going. I had the Branzino fish which was good but it included no greens. There are no salad options on the menu either and I like to eat a more balance meal. It felt my meal was a bit too rich for me and I would prefer a more seasonal menu with fresh veggies. I would love to go for this evening more often as I live in the neighborood. I also think it's a mistake to not have installed blinds during the last renovation. We were blinded from the sun for most of the meal and couldn't easily see the other two people siting across the table.

This was a wonderful evening of top-notch food, elegant preparation and astonishing taste. The Covey has these special 3-course menus every Wednesday night, so put it down on your calendar. For $69 you won't regret it.

Covey Grill is my favorite, but I don't love the menu of late!! Miss clam chowder and wish they had a few more uncomplicated entrees!

As a local, I hesitate to give a review because once one discovers such a gem as the Wednesday night prix fixe menu, one selfishly doesn't want it to become too swamped with tourists! Truly an "haute cuisiine" experience, available right here without needing to travel to France (or Macedonia).!

spring is upon us and sitting in the sun by the pond is just lovely, The choice of menu was, again awesome.

Once again, the Prix Fixe meal on Wednesdays was a winner, shrimp app was fresh and delicious, the duck croquettes with tomato jam were perfect, pork chop Pastor tender and perfectly cooked, sea bass was melt in your mouth, all this followed with a smooth chocolate mouse. Each weeks menus are a delight and different.

Park belly Bao was crispy and tasty, everything else was at the standard of awesome. The Covey is starting to serve a regular menu Thursday-Saturday (0r Sunday) looking forward to trying that. Still headed to Wednesday Prix Fixe tho.

The weekly Wednesday Night “Love Thy Neighbor” Prix Fixe ever-changing menu is so wonderful! Chef G dazzles with delectable, inspired creations! A must try, like every Wednesday!

Once again, the Wednesday Prix Fixe is delicious, great flavor profiles expertly exercised and beautifully presented.

An anniversary dinner for the books! So cozy and inviting. The food and drinks were a real treat. Great staff.

Wednesday eve at the Covey, what a treat. Awesome menu different every week with plenty of taste treats. we are so enjoying this. The Chef has a firm hand with the flavor profile and we are so happy be the recipients of his expertise.

We stayed in the Quail Lodge and tried their breakfast and dinner in Covey Grill. Very good food and nice environment to stay and enjoy. Absolutely a gem in the Carmel valley!

For apps ordered the endive salad and tuna. Beautiful presentation and so delicious! Michelin rated. For dinner had the branzino which was amazing.
The food was outstanding. The servers need some training. A warmer welcome and better walk thru their favorites on the menu and some conversation. It was very transactional for this resort setting. But that wouldn’t keep me from coming back again and recommending.

The burger was juicy and well-seasoned, but the buns were a bit dry—adding fresher buns would elevate the dish.
