There was a few of us there. It wasn't busy that day. I had skewers (beef) and tasted DELICIOUS! It's not too pricey. Good service.

My wife and I stopped at this restaurant while spending the weekend in Monterey. She ordered the Braised Short Ribs and I ordered the Fisherman's Plate. We shared, of course. Both meals were delicious. The meat on the ribs was cooked to perfection – it was tender and juicy. Also, everything on the Fisherman's plate – calamari, salmon, shrimp – was cooked just right, with a lot of flavor. Each plate was over $40, but so well worth it.

The service was friendly and we were seated immediately. Our server was great at answering our questions and he was the one that recommended the Braised Short Ribs (great call).

It was a Saturday night, around 7:30 pm, when we arrived. We thought there would be more people dining out, but there were only about 4 other groups in this large restaurant. Patrons slowly trickled in and it got a little busier as the evening went on.

The decor was rustic and the outdoor patio seemed nice. It was too cold to eat outside during our visit. Overall, the food was amazing and the service was great. I have already recommended this spot to my family. My wife and I look forward to dining here again the next time we are in town.

Yesterday I went to Monterey Cookhouse, as it was right next to the hotel I was staying at. I don’t think I’ve ever felt more comfortable or welcomed eating at a restaurant alone! Markos and Delmy were so kind and the food was delicious! Consider me a new regular because I will be back quite often.

We ate lunch at Monterey Cookhouse today & had a margarita pizza & Caprese panini! (Great vegetarian options!) Not to mention tiramisu for dessert! Everything was delicious & moderately priced from the locals’ menu! The owner, Mohammed, is a sweetheart who gave us a tour of the place! Love the eclectic, comfortable atmosphere—-& his gardens!! Charming!
Recommend trying & know we will be returning! Maybe to try their Happy Hour Menu items too!

The food was amazing, amazing decor, etc. but the star of the show was our waiter. Marcos was phenomenal. He was funny, attentive, and made our night! It was my birthday and it was such an amazing way to end the day :) we will be back every time we visit from out of town!
Much love from “Ok, Done, and Finished!”
