Where to Eat Calamari in Monterey County | Eater

"Old Fisherman’s Grotto is one of the most historic and beloved restaurants at Old Fisherman’s Wharf. First opened in the 1950s, this family-run establishment has an old-school charm that extends to the menu. Don’t miss the clam chowder or the fried calamari, both of which have won multiple awards. Here, the calamari is floured and fried until golden-brown, then served with the traditional accompaniments of lemon, tartar sauce, and cocktail sauce. The Grotto even tops its Bloody Cala-Mary cocktail with a skewer of fried squid." - Annalise Mantz
