Very busy place for brunch. Popular Mediterranean style restaurant with outdoor seating. Cramped inside. Variety of tasty options and good food, but the waiter apparently forgot we existed.

Great appetizers and pasta! This place was a pleasant surprise—I chose it blindly on my way to LA, and it exceeded my expectations!

Was really excited to try this. The ambiance is nice and the place is really cute. It was disappointing that the menu was not the same as on their website. We only had a handful of options(8 options maybe), and none were what we went there for. They add gratuity no matter how many in your party(which is fine), but there was a lack of personality and not even a "have a good night" from the server. Just dropped the paid check and didn't say anything. The food was good, and the portions were good.

Great tasting food, and not as expensive as some places in Carmel. Tried the gyro and it was plentiful and satisfying. The shrimp pasta was spicy and oh so good!
Parking: Free two-hour street parking in the area. But be careful as parking enforcement will mark tires and ticket cars that exceed the allotted time limit. Also, there are three items on the menu for dogs. Very dog friendly restaurant.

Very cute little place with friendly and capable wait staff, but the food was terrible! The veggie pasta, paella, chili, and lentil soup were all relatively flavorless, very expensive, and just all together unappetizing.
Carmel sets a high standard. Treehouse met the moment!

This was our favorite meal in Carmel-By-The-Sea! We sat on the rooftop patio under a heater. The food was so flavorful and fresh tasting. We had baba ganoush for appetizer and the gyros platter. My wife and I shared and were so pleased!

This place was an excellent choice for my family to wrap up our trip to Monterey. Our previous dining experiences had not been as smooth, so this was a last-ditch effort to find some good food, and it certainly was delivered..
The staff here was exceptionally polite, friendly, and helpful. They ensured our comfort and well-being throughout our meal.
The clam chowder was absolutely astonishing. It had the perfect consistency, fresh flavors, and an excellent texture. We couldn’t resist finishing the entire bowl, cleaning it out!
The lamb gyro plate’s meat was absolutely perfectly cooked and flavored. It definitely paired well with the tzatziki and pita, but there was way too much meat for the amount of pita— our only complaint.
The bread that came as a default appetizer was standard, but the oil/vinaigrette/Parmesan dip was better than most.
The seafood pasta was very fresh tasting, and the sauce had a great flavor, but the noodles, being handmade, just lacked a bite— which is often times what happens when pasta is cooked fresh.
The bolognese sauce was a little bit sweet for my liking, but well flavored nonetheless. The noodles had the same soft texture, though.
The Thai yellow curry was undoubtedly very spicy! It’s exactly what someone seeking authentic Thai curry would crave; we haven’t been able to find a good curry since our favorite restaurant closed down, but this is certainly progress. The person who ordered it found it a bit too spicy, but our server promptly addressed the issue by providing them with extra curry without chili.
The wine that we had ordered was also stricken from the bill, on the house— very generous!
Upon receiving the check, a complimentary Baklava dessert was presented, though it wasn’t the tastiest I’ve had. Nevertheless, it was a thoughtful gesture.
The atmosphere is casual and calming, even though you’re perched on a balcony a story above the sidewalk, in Carmel. It’s a bit chilly, which is typical for coastal restaurants, and the heaters are a bit sparse, but the overall experience was very pleasant!
Parking: We did come at night, when parking was easy— but there is plenty of street parking around the part of Carmel this restaurant is located.
Kid-friendliness: I do think this is more of an adult crowd, and would not recommend bringing young ones.
Wheelchair accessibility: This restaurant is a bit lofty, and finding a route up would be quite annoying.
Over all is good 🤍
