Delicious Traditional but memorable dishes stop by for lunch if you're in the area.
Everything was fresh and tasty, the burrito was huge! Good food and great value for money.
The fish and scallop burrito was huge and it was delicious! We watched them cook it and it was all fresh and grilled. Definitely a great spot in Monterey!

Taqueria Del Mar offers nice portions of food for a reasonable cost, with a welcoming atmosphere and easily accessible parking. The family-owned restaurant has been serving fantastic, fresh food since 1998. Favorites include the fish taco with rice and beans, flavorful chorizo burrito, and a variety of delicious dishes like nachos, quesadilla, enchiladas, and chimichanga. Guests love the chewy rice, amazing salsa available in squeeze bottles, and the fact that locals frequent the place. A must-visit spot on Cannery Row, suitable for families as well. It has a cozy, mom-and-pop vibe, with customers ordering at the counter. The seafood chimichanga is highly praised, described as hot, golden, and filled with a creamy mix of tender fish and shrimp. The chimichanga is fried on a flat top, not deep fried. Visitors also enjoy the seafood tacos, especially crab, squid, and fish varieties, which taste like an aquarium in your mouth. The restaurant is a great find, located only a mile from downtown Monterey, and offers a menu of a la carte items, specials, and combinations. The food is fresh, well presented, and delicious, prompting repeat visits. The owner/chef is a charming man who makes guests feel welcome, making it a highlight for many travelers.
