And I am very hard to please.“

“The fantastic vegan meal option took me back to some of my favorite eating places in Oaxaca. However, the mezcal was priced for Carmel, as it was double the price of any restaurant that I have been in the US. One is charged $11 to $24 for a 1oz pour. An normal pour is 1.5 to 2 ounces depending on the bartender.“

The tables are spaced apart to allow for conversation and there's no rush to finish your meal. You are encouraged to linger and enjoy the best meal in Carmel!“

“I first visited this amazing local deli in 1989-1990. I remembered the half loaves of bread stacked high with a pile of my choice of meats and cheeses. Although I was only 18-19, Compagno’s established my standard for an amazing sandwich. 32 years later I brought my sons here for lunch. Same delicious goodness a generation later.“

“We enjoyed a delicious lunch. Everyone enjoyed their food and the restaurant has a nice ambiance.“

“I love stopping by Alta for something to eat and a great tasting coffee!!“

“Although located in an unassuming little yellow cottage off the main road, Siam Marina Thai Cuisine tries its best to make its presence known. Its magenta trim and string lights guide you in. As you enter, the cozy building is cleaved in twain, leaving a tiny yet comfortable and inviting dining room on one side and a cloistered kitchen on the other. You find yourself blanketed within bright pink walls and cheerfully colorful decor. The kitchen is close enough to where you can hear the bubbling of fryer oil and vigorous conversations in Thai -- I can imagine it's quite fun when the place is full (I came for lunch and it was completely empty).
I wanted to try something really spicy as I like to test my limits (and the restaurant's), but the mango curry caught my eye, so instead I decided to see how a fruit would fit in to the meal.
The fried fish cakes I ordered as well were quite good, but I was mostly impressed with everything around them. The sauce they came with was delightful and filled with fresh vegetables, and they were topped with freshly fried basil that was maybe just a tad undercrisped. The fish cakes had a bit of a leathery exterior, but were juicy and not soaked in oil as I had feared might be the case.
As I first began trying the curry, I was a little disappointed. The mango, I thought, felt out of place in both taste and texture, and the curry itself did not have an identifiable mango flavor beyond that. But it quickly grew on me, and again I found that everything tasted very fresh: the vegetables were just crunchy enough and the curry sauce was bold yet sweet. I ended up eating every last bit of mango.
Thai cuisine is not one that I am well acquainted with but it is one I'd like to try more often, and Siam Marina was a decided boost of confidence. I commend their practice and wish them well.“

“I am from Seaside and I have to tell you this has to the best breakfast in Monterey County by far I will return“

“I tried something new today, the hot Turkey open face sandwich smothered in a wonderful mushroom gravy. OMG 😱 So good ! And my salad was the perfect size to complement the large portion of the hot Turkey. I added a little Tabasco cause that what I do. I thought I was finished until the little waitress offered dessert 🍨. I ordered a piece of their home made apple 🍎 pie 🎉🎊😱. People let me tell you this is a bucket lister. With out a doubt the best apple pie I have ever had. And yes they make it from scratch. Great lunch experience today ! I ordered a piece of pie for a friend who is not feeling well and dropped it off to her. Thanks Victorian Corner for such a pleasant atmosphere to have my lunch 🙏.“

“Delicious pizza & drinks.“

“I’ll offer a better than expected review. Our party of five went for Sunday brunch. 1/2 wait for an outdoor table. Excellent Southwest eggs Benedict; chicken fettuccini; fruit salad and Cinnamon toast special with eggs. Chocolate Oreo cake for dessert. Excellent service for a relaxing Sunday. Glad to return and recommend. Cheers!“

“We were long- time Casa Rosita fans ( the former name) and were quite pleased with the new owners menu, service and hospitality. A very welcoming staff with authentic dishes ( especially seafood plates) at a reasonable price. The owner, Francisco , wants customers to come, feel like family, eat delicious seafood plates as well as traditional items. Which we did! I highly recommend eating here.“

“We celebrated our anniversary there and had the BEST time. Faisal always makes you feel like family. The food and music are the best!!!“

“Amazing food with even more amazing service. Highly recommend for your special night out!“

“Amazing food and service. If you need gluten free options then this is the place! GF garlic bread, pasta, and more. soooo good!“

“Michael’s is simply the best food on the planet! It’s Tex Mex with a Cajun rub to it. Simply the most awesome food you will ever have period…..fight me. Lol. I am loyal to them forever! You will be changed!!“

“Beautiful spot, quaint and cozy, generous portions, expertly executed.“

“What a fabulous dinner we had last night! Highly recommend Cafe Fina! Incredible food, great service and the owner, Dominic Mercurio, is an absolute delight! We were truly honored to sit at John Madden’s special table! The house wine, Bonanza, is a Caymus product.“

“Being an old-ish Army Vet, I had to try the SOS, as it was the go to breakfast in the 80's Army. I was not disappointed with the flavor or the memories! Great, efficient servers, service and food. 12 stars outta 10 stars! (When the VA appointments send me this way again, I'll definitely be getting my breakfast here!)“

“One of our favorite places breakfast. We're never disappointed by the food or the staff.“

“Beyond amazing. Service ambience and food was impeccable“

“I ordered the falafel plate and it was so good! The man that works there was really kind and helpful when ordering. He gave us a free taste of his baklava (it’s amazing! He’s a great baker). If I had to go again I would order the Loubiya (apparently his specialty). I’m not vegetarian but the veg/vegan food were amazing. We also had a side of labneh and it was great, highly recommend!“

“Very nice village style coffee Tea & Pastries“

“What a beautifully quaint place with AMAZING eats!

I am a breakfast snob and am so glad I found this place. I had the Lemon & Ricotta pancakes. WOW. My hubby had the hearty plate with 2 eggs, sausage, PERFECTLY crisp and salted potatoes and a beautiful biscuit plus a side of crispy perfect bacon.
So siimple but soooo yummy thanks to their care to details.

It is close quarters, so you'll need to be comfy with tight tables and close quarters. Also, we initially chose the place because it had outdoor seating and we wanted to bring our dog. However, it was a bit drizzly so we decided to leave the dog in the car. Worked out fine because there was only 1 large and two 2 seater sidewalk tables. All occupied at the time of our arrival.

Service was fine. Nothing notable, but certainly nice people. The ambiance and food bring me to a 5 out of 5.“

“Solid vegan sushi roll options - all veg based (no “fake fish” creations) but very good. The mushroom roll in particular was excellent. Good spot if you need vegan food in a pinch (we were traveling) but not a super filling option. #Veganuary“

“Loved the food, Teo our server was exceptional. Cozy yet romantic. A must to enjoy when in Carmel.“

“We had very nice anniversary dinner at Stationaery. We sat outside, since we still do not feel comfortable for an indoor seating due to pandemic. The evening was cool, but heating lamps made it comfortable for longer and leisure meal. Both food and service were excellent. We highly recommend this friendly restaurant and will be back for sure🤩“

“Nice place to have family gatherings..very nice restaurant and foods they serve..“

“Amazing Mbjeu! Try it! Wonderful staff and their cocido is great too“

“Awesomeness overload great pies“

“I wanted to write the perfect review but I won't be able to do that. The people there were so nice and so warm. The location is in an old house in historic downtown Pacific Grove. But I can't let this go, the prices were high (as expected) and then they did the old trick of, "Did you want chorizo with that"....without telling you it's a $6 upcharge for two teaspoons added on top of your $17 plate of chiliquilies. So for $23, you get a full plate, I mean piled high of tortilla chips covered in a homemade red sauce (delicious). A table or teaspoonful of queso fresco per the recipe (delicious), two fried eggs, and sour cream on the side, (awesome). Most recipes for this dish that I've eaten will offer a choice of protein. Chorizo is a very common breakfast protein for this recipe. I would argue that it should be part of the recipe regardless but if you ask people, "Do you want chorizo on that?", many will say yes for the reasons I mentioned above. But when the bill comes watch out. It was a $6 upcharge to my $17 choice of breakfast. If it's an upcharge you have to tell me in advance. "Do I want it?", is one question. "Do I want it for the price you will charge me?", has to be a separate question. If it's some amount that high, an extra 1/3 of the price of my breakfast, then you shoudl feel extremely obligated to tell me how much. Don't make me feel like an a-hole bringing up your sketchy business upcharge practices to you in the middle of a super-packed breakfast/brunch rush when you hand me the bill. I didn't bring it up but I wanted to, very badly. As good as the meal was the experience left a bad taste in my mouth and more than a week later I'm still shaking my head about it. For a place that thrives on tourist and word-of-mouth business, there's no reason for this type of shady business antics which leads someone like me who otherwise really enjoyed this place to go to the trouble of leaving a bad review. I probably won't go back due to this.“

“The avocado toast is yummy! (Remember to request the carb free (very seedy) bread.)“

“Lots of fun, interesting and unique decor fitting the theme. Service was attentive and articulate, and waters were refilled, but soup wasn't delivered until after the entree. Sadly, the "icelandic cod" in "beer batter" was a sad and rather tasteless and tough piece of fish (maybe it was cod, maybe not) that was in fact served in panko type breadcrumbs, not a "batter" at all. This is "breaded" fish in British terms. And the chips were oven chips, not fried. As Brits excited to be in a town that seems to have about 4 restaurants serving fish and chips, we were disappointed in this offering and next time we go to Monterey we will try one of the other places.“
