Fandango Restaurant is a highly regarded dining spot in the Monterey area, known for its authentic Basque atmosphere and cozy, assorted small dining rooms. The restaurant offers a welcoming environment perfect for celebrations, special occasions, or a night out. The staff is attentive and competent, ensuring guests feel well taken care of, with glasses kept full throughout the meal. The bread, sourced from a local bakery, is outstanding, and portions are large and tasty.
The menu features standout dishes such as scallop specials, Osso Buco, and Pierre's famous lamb. Other options include liver and onions, scalloped potatoes, and green beans, all prepared to a high standard. The Grand Marnier soufflé remains a must-try dessert, rich and flavorful. Recent visits highlight that the food is generally outstanding, with some dishes like scalloped potatoes and Chicken Piccata being dry or disappointing. However, the overall experience, including the great wine list and the bar’s excellent martini, keeps visitors coming back.
Fandango's is a favorite among locals and out-of-town guests alike, praised for its exceptional service, great food, and cozy atmosphere. The restaurant continues to be a top choice for celebrating special occasions, with many guests hoping to return for more memorable dinners.
