My husband and I had such an amazing experience for our anniversary dinner. The atmosphere was very fancy and beautiful. We got a good view of the ocean. The servers and hostess were very nice and polite. We ordered lasagna and it was quite delicious and filling. The server Anthony brought us a complimentary dessert to celebrate our anniversary. The prices may seem high, but for the service and food it's quite worth it! Thank you for the wonderful experience. We would definitely return.

Please carefully read through my review if the price range is not within your daily consumption level:You need to adjust your expectation before dinning here. The price that you paid for the food obviously contains a premium, considering the restaurant locates inside the most luxurious lodge with the best view you can find in Monterey. (I'm sure there is no "one of the best".)I would reckon a 30%-40% premium contained in the price, comparing to a similar level of food and service elsewhere. $100+/persion can get you a 1-star Michelin restaurant anywhere else in CA.Now, back to the view: GREAT if you are lucky enough to avoid rainy, cloudy days during winter times, as the day goes completely dark after 5:30 while the restaurant only start operations at 5:30; GOOD if you encounter any situations listed above, but it remains a question for you to decide if you are willing to pay for the overly priced food when the entire coast has no sunlight at all.Last, I don't think the food is that amazing as some other reviews described. I'm not sure if they pretend to say so as they are purely staggered by the view or they rarely have the chance to walk inside a decent Italian-style restaurant. In either case, you should expect a decent level of cooking as you can normally get in this price level and a not very generous portion. (eat as many free bread as possible)

We arrived early in time for the bagpipes to serenade the sundown. Lovely place to take parents and family!

Pebble Beach Resorts Peppoli is a must try! Loved everything from salad and appetizer to entree to dessert and drinks! We ordered the arugula salad, crispy calamari, Tomahawk steak, seafood pasta, carbonara, tiramisu, and a variety of cocktail drinks and wine. Truly every single one of them was delish!! The Steak was cooked to perfection! The place is nice and cozy, pretty spacious room inside The Inn. Noise was a bit loud with people chatting. Service is exceptional! It was a girls weekend trip so we wanted to share and they accommodated but slicing the steak and bringing smaller plates. They also brought complimentary cake for my friend who's celebrating her birthday.

Such an amazing dinner experience. Sat outside at a fire table. Bag Piper was a fun surprise. Sunset was gorgeous! Enjoyed the spicy sausage and charcuterie appetizer. Shared the bolognese pasta, mushroom pasta, and straw and hat pasta - all very tender flavorful housemade pasta dishes. The pound cake dessert stole the show, was our favorite of the night!

The food was phenomenal. Service was great & premier experience. I would 100% recommend this to everyone & got to do part of the 17 mile drive for sunset.

Beautiful space with the evening Piper and all. Great service. Huge wine list. But we were really disappointed by the actual food. Started with a nice Gin & Tonic and some good bread with great fresh olive oil. Those were the best part of the meal, sadly.Kauai shrimp were well cooked, but not sweet and lovely. The goat cheese and apple salad was uninspired and needed more pep and less celeriac. The tomato-bread soup had an off taste, somehow a bit plasticky? Mains were fine, but for the price, I expect more flavor from my blue cheese gnocchi and osso bucco.

This is our favorite place to dine at Spanish Bay. We always have stellar service, a great view and an amazing wine list. Our recent visit in October provided us with the best weather we've ever had , watching the sunset with an excellent meal. The calamari appetizer, the salad the steak Florentine was all excellent. Our server Paige was amazing and very knowledgeable about the very long wine list. I highly recommend giving this place a try. Bon appétit
We've eaten at Peppoli many times, and it's always been a great place to dine if you like Italian food or steaks. Pictures are of affettato misto, Tuscan tomato bread soup, Pappardelle Bolognese, a fish entree were all delicious. The Tomahawk ribeye and the Tuscan T-bone for two will satisfy any steak lovers. They have a nice wine list too!

We had a fantastic night at Peppoli once again. Every time I come here, they give me outstanding customer service. The servers here are immaculate. The restaurant is gorgeous. This was my first time sitting outside. I must tell you we had the best seats in the house. Most everything on the menu is good. My favorites are Tomahawk and filet mignon, and I love their tiramisu. They have a list of several different wines you can choose from. Their cocktails are limited. If you want to go to a fabulous restaurant with a beautiful view, look no further. Thanks, guys, for making my Saturday and giving me a great evening; much appreciated.

The view is just spectacular. If the weather is nice, definitely sit outside. The food is a bit overpriced and nothing to rave about. It's pretty average Italian food, but the atmosphere is what sold me.
