American restaurant · Monterey County

@foodandwine

"An adorable rustic cottage packed with plates, harlequin figures, bric-a-brac, and fabric streamers, warmed by fireplaces and potbelly stoves, soothed by soft classical music, Deetjen's manages to be romantic even at breakfast, for Eggs Benedict, buttermilk pancakes, or impressively sized burritos. This beloved favorite opened in 1939 in a rustic lodge built by a Norwegian immigrant amid the redwoods." - Sharon McDonnell
