“This is a nice, above average experience for dining in the Carmel Valley. Cocktails were superb. Quality of food has elevated, and I had an amazing steak - tender and juicy. Salad was flavorful. They seem to have a good selection of wines. The bar area was spacious and nice looking. The overall ambience was elevated and decorated with great taste. Service was superb and Henry took great care of us throughout our experience. I think this could be a great dining destination for people in the area looking for a nice time and experience.“

I would always come here for the wings, fish & chips and today all of us decided to have the ribeye steak. Cooked to perfection, simple is better, filling and so juicy. Felt like good ol’ home cooking, fun and easy listening county music, fun décor all around and the service was perfectly welcoming, kind and attentive. No doubt as to why this is a local favorite with a small town, good people feeling ❤️❤️❤️ I should have taken photos… next time 😉“

I wanted fish for the holiday and she made sure we got the right kind for good luck. She took the time to understand what I was looking for and made such delicious food. I really felt like I was back at home at this restaurant. The owner spoke both Cantonese and Mandarin too, which was so lovely. It’s hard to find an authentic Chinese atmosphere like this on the peninsula. Good vibes. Highly recommend.“

When I was there, they were preparing for 3 events simultaneously. This location strikes me as very robust, and able to handle large groups of visitors with ease, yet not squelch the 'quaintness' of Carmel Valley.“

“I recently visited the Noodle Bar in Seaside, and honestly, it was just okay. Compared to the Marina location, Marina is much better overall. The food there has better flavor and quality, and the service is also better.
The Seaside location is takeout only, which is inconvenient and takes away from the overall experience. The food here is decent, but nothing special.
Overall, it’s average. If you have the option, I would definitely recommend going to the Marina location instead.“
