Old Fishermen's Grotto

Oysters, Clam Chowder, Scallops, were delicious. This is my 8th time going and the service as soon as i walk in is always top notch, respectful, friendly, and accommodating. Window seat had a great view of the water. Thank you, will be back again.

What a phenomenal dinner and above and beyond service. We come every year for our anniversary with our kids and grandkids. We all look forward to it. The staff make the evening extremely special and the food is amazing. Can't wait for next year! The Silvas

Always a pleasure. Treated like a good friend. Food is excellent and the atmosphere is welcoming and wonderful.

This place never disappoints. A must do for locals and out of towners. They have customer service and details down to the most exquisite level. Thank you to the Shake family for making Monterey so special.

The service was wonderful, the food was excellent. Our server was attentive. They had a 25% discount off of wine which was appreciated and the ladies hot a rose. Old school and fantastic!!

We celebrate our combined event. Veterans Day and our Anniversary on the same day. The food is wonderful and service makes us feel welcomed. Starting with a wonderful plate of hors d'oeuvres. Then a seafood pasta. Ending with a slide of cheese cake and candle. Just perfect.

We had a late reservation because it was a busy weekend. We showed up about an hour early to wait in the bar area. They were able to get us in within 20 minutes. The bartender even carried our drinks to our table for us when our table was ready. The food was delicious, and our server was very friendly. My husband is not a seafood fan and he ordered the maple soy skirt steak. He loved his steak, and I loved my seafood. Highly recommend!

This was one of the best meals we have had in a long time ! Food was fresh and amazing -extra special- and service was friendly and attentive (think old school steakhouse where everyone knows your name). Would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great meal! We actually ate here for dinner then again for lunch the next day ... it was that good !

Our waiter, Ricardo, provided exceptional service. The food was delicious, beautifully presented, and the ambiance was perfect for a romantic dinner or a celebratory occasion. We are looking forward to our next visit.

Had dinner with friends last night. Short wait was spent in the bar with the terrific bartender. Dinners were VERY generous, the cioppino, paella and ribeye were all huge. Our waiter was fantastic too. First time visiting but if we're ever back, we'll definitely return.

We visited for our Anniversary. When I made the reservation it asked for any special instructions or needs. I put, “It's our anniversary”. When we arrived we were taken to a wonderful table with a great view; but that's not all... white table cloth, a candle and rose petals were on our table. We received excellent service and lots of special attention. The other tables didn't have these details. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was amazing. The service was top shelf. And the attention to detail was absolutely top notch. Every detail was planned and executed. And while we ordered dessert there was also a special dessert treat given for our special occasion. Thank you to the amazing wait staff and team for making our special day even more so.

Amazing restaurant! Brad give us a service A++! Food, wine and look so good! Price not to much expensive! All very good! A beautiful attention with rose for women! Thank you!

Loved the Rose at the end and the friendly service. Food good but not as good as we hoped.

We have dined here before, service is always outstanding food is usually very good, this time the food flavor was not up to our expectations from previous visits . The service staff and waiter were excellent.

Auch bei unserem zweiten Besuch in Monterey war das Essen auf dem pier im old Fisherman's Grotto ein wunderbares Erlebnis. Das Ambiente ist schön, die Bedienung herzlich und das Essen einfach wunderbar. Besonders die crab cakes waren toll!
