Restaurants near Del Monte Forest

“We were looking for the “bench” restaurant to get pizza, but ended up sitting in this restaurant (turns out Pebble beach has many restaurants close by and they are all named differently). This restaurant turned out to be great! We were not much hungry and just wanted to enjoy ambience and have some snacks. The views were gorgeous! Appetizers were yum. Drink was good as well. They also validated our “17 miles drive entry fee” - 12.5$ (they subtracted it from the check). And also they gave us a postcard!”

“This is a great place to taste wine from all over the world. The sommelier’s are really knowledgeable without being elitist and make you feel right at home in the cozy space.”

“The steak flatbread is amazing. The bartender with the red hair is very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. The hot drinks were amazing.i highly recommend getting one. No dress code required. Free parking lot outside and its open late. Great vibe. We sat at the bar right away.”

“Great food, view and service.”

“Huge food portions for big appetite!!”

“I had a Popeye Salad and a hot Italian sandwich and my husband had his clam chowder 😊service was fast with great customer service!! Thank you so much”

“Everyone should have the full dinner at least once but once you get the vibe then sit at the bar or the super comfy patio and order a la carte.

Service is absolutely charming and worth the price of admission. The menu changes a lot but if you see the abalone skewers then they are a must have.

Cocktails are approachable and match the vibe perfectly. It's a regular stop for us.”

“Our visit to Stoke's Adobe last weekend produced the best meal I've had on The Peninsula in a decade! Restauranteur, Sarah Orr, has hit one out of the park. The dishes prepared by Executive Chef, Bryce Hansen, were flawless, my favorties being the seared scallops and truffle chicken. Loved the nod to former occupant and socialite, Hattie Gragg, with the inclusion of the Hattie's Old Fashioned on the cocktail menu :) Looking forward to our next visit and an opportunity to sample other items on their ever evolving menu.”

“We ordered our lemon raspberry wedding cake with buttercream frosting from Parker-Lusseau Pastries, and it was everything we dreamed of — absolutely delicious and beautifully made!
From the start, working with Anne was a wonderful experience. She was extremely responsive via email and made sure all of our requests were fulfilled. The team was so accommodating and ensured our cake would be ready and perfect for our special day, which gave us such peace of mind.
Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how good the cake tasted — light, flavorful, and just the right amount of sweetness.
Side note: Their almond croissants are incredible — we’re obsessed. We’ve already decided to come back on our one-year anniversary to pick up a mini version of our wedding cake and relive the magic of that day.
Huge thanks to Anne and the whole Parker-Lusseau team for making our celebration so special!”

“I first visited this amazing local deli in 1989-1990. I remembered the half loaves of bread stacked high with a pile of my choice of meats and cheeses. Although I was only 18-19, Compagno’s established my standard for an amazing sandwich. 32 years later I brought my sons here for lunch. Same delicious goodness a generation later.”

“Took a couple of dates here. The atrium is just beautiful and the food was amazing as always. Top notch in every way!”

“We dined here recently and had a very different experience.

Pricing felt consistent with Monterey sushi restaurants (around $3.50 per nigiri), and our food was fresh and well-prepared. As with any restaurant, experiences can vary, but we enjoyed our meal”

“Great dinner -- Good cocktails - Blood orange gin & tonic & San Vitor . Also a selection of spritzes. Duck pate' nice size portion to split for appetizer. Cappellacci di Granchio - little soft pillows of crab and ricotta in lemon butter sauce and Spaghetti alla carbonara were both delicious. No room for the homemade gelato. Great service and nice wine list. Suggest reservations.”

“Great service fron everyone in the floor ,Delicious food.”

“Elevated comfort food with a few minor twists (branzino gets the au poivre treatment; lamb lightened up with lots of watercress) but all familiar enough for our teen daughters to love. Big buzzy room and standout friendliness from our server. Just a delight.”

“Being an old-ish Army Vet, I had to try the SOS, as it was the go to breakfast in the 80's Army. I was not disappointed with the flavor or the memories! Great, efficient servers, service and food. 12 stars outta 10 stars! (When the VA appointments send me this way again, I'll definitely be getting my breakfast here!)”

“Absolutely wonderful and blessed spot to eat and the atmosphere makes you feel like you’re at home. When you enter and you’re met with their wonderful smiles I felt their true spirit came through with flying colors. The sandwiches were amazing 🤩 and the baked goods were stellar as well, thank you 🙏🏻 sincerely for sharing your love for food!”

You you also have a choice of delicious breads, and you can customize your sandwich if you wish! The staff is always courteous, and quick. Their egg salad sandwich is really delicious, you just have to try it!”
