Catch

Driving down 17 Mile Drive from Pacific Grove we knew friends are frequent visitors of Carmel. We messaged and asked them for a lunch recommendation and we received several. But they shared the best seafood can be found at Catch. That's where we drove to. We were promptly seated in the dining room which had a nice ambiance. Right away we were served complimentary small portion of Caviar and a very small glass of Champagne - an unexpected but appreciated way to start the meal. After reviewing the menu I ordered their local specialty Monterey Bay Sand Dabs while my wife ordered their Grilled Salmon. We drank our beverages (I had an Italian Pilsner and my wife a French Chardonnay). After an appropriate time our lunch arrived. We both really enjoyed our meals - the Sand Dabs were tender, flaky and flavored with a creamy piccata sauce and served with a side of rice pilaf and sautéed vegetables. My wife's Salmon was served with a Saffron cream sauce and baked potato au gratin. The service was very attentive and friendly. We have no reservation recommending Catch in Carmel to any friend. We look forward to returning in the future.

You walk into a very pleasant elegant atmosphere with calming music. We were treated with champagne and caviar by Shariff as we pursued the menus. As we discussed the menu you start to notice the Mediterranean themes wall frescoes and the unique jellyfish lamps that caught out eye as we walked in. They are a good kids menu. Wife ordered sand dabs, I ordered linguine with shrimp which was modified by the chef to accomodate my onion and garlic allergy. The bread load had a nice flaky crust and spongy center that melted in my mouth and paired well with the balsamic vinegar/olive oil. The sand dabs were cooked to the perfect temperature and had a perfect texture. Flavor was amazing when salted to taste. The linguine with shrimp was buttery and filling, and after the freshly ground pepper and salting to taste was very satisfying.

Stopped here for a Sunday lunch after a stroll through the town. Ambience is nice. Food was beautifully presented, was fresh and good portion size. The champagne and caviar welcome was much appreciated. Highly recommend, would go again

The whole menu looked amazing but we had two salads and two gimlets! Salads and gimlets were amazing. Our server Augustine was great

We are so glad we chose this as the restaurant for our wedding night! They had our table ready for our reservation time, with candles and a vase. Our server was wonderful and so attentive. We were offered complimentary champagne and caviar (it appears that everyone else received the same!). Our dinner was delicious. I had the salmon, my husband had the lobster. We had the chocolate cake for dessert, and it was also divine! There was a guitarist that walked around and he was wonderful as well. Such a beautiful dinner, and it was the perfect way to end our evening! Highly recommend!

Celebratory engagement dinner for my son & now fiancé. The restaurant is small, but they accommodated our party of 22. They reserved the back portion of the restaurant for us. The service was 10/10, had a set menu due to the size of our party, but there was something on the menu for everyone. The owner came around 2-3 times & introduced himself, asked if everything was ok or if we needed anything & thanked us for choosing his restaurant. We cannot thank the owner & his staff for everything they did to help make this such a memorable dinner.

What a lovely place, champagne and caviar to start sets a very high standard. Sand Dabs were so good. We totally lucked out in finding this restaurant. Highly recommend it if you are in downtown Carmel by the Sea

It was the best experience of dining out on land I ever had! The food was so good and enough to share! They give as some wine and caviar complimentary! They have live music singing just for us. And best of all it wasn't expensive!

Absolutely amazing dinner Incredible service Loved the live music The fresh fish was incredible. We loved our dinner and entire dining experience!!!!

Amazing food, amazing service, amazing owner. I honestly can say this is the best sea food in this area. They start serving you with a complimentary caviar and champagne. We ordered the pasta with the jumbo prawns and crab and shrimp ravioli, they both were outstanding! I recommend this place 100% if you are in the mood for the seafood. It is the cleanest, most delicious food in Carmel. We will be back

Only went here because the neighboring restaurants had a waitlist. Very good calamari. Service was above average. Fish entrees were not great. Grilled fish was too dry and the fish and chips as well. Clam chowder was too creamy and not enough texture with clams and potatoes. The dining was too blue of a lighting. Wouldn't return with all the better options around here.

Now I understand why every other place was fully booked with a wait time of 30 mins and this one was completely empty with just one other family. My husband and I were walking past this place when the person working at the door of the restaurant approached us to come in for lunch and we decided to try this spot. I got the lobster roll on a bread and he got fish and chips. The lobster roll was so gross.. it was cold and tasted like store bought lobster that just got thrown on a piece of bread. I ended up eating the piece of bread only. I even asked the waiter after the first bite if they can change the food cause I could not eat it and he said no they'd have to charge me for whatever I get.

Starting by saying the staff earned them an extra star. Nice people. The food was okay nothing special so, don't expect a great lunch or dinner. The chowder was good to average as was the crab and the salad. If the owners read this: hire new cooks and give the front of the house a raise. But you must already know this.

The service was great. But as I'm looking at my receipt, something is very off. The total for credit should be $238.77 as seen on the detailed receipt. However, the customer copy has the charge amount as $260.26 before tip. I added an extra tip of $50.00. This is so wrong. I didn't check to see if the amount charged was the same as the detailed receipt, but it should NOT be different either. Plz check your receipts very carefully.

Excellent restaurant, amazing food. We had live music, excellent service and magic atmosphere. Highly recommend! BTW, don't forget your desert!

Catch is a very nice seafood restaurant in Carmel. The ambiance is cozy with Aquarium inspired decor. The service was prompt and very good. Our waters were refilled without asking. We ordered calamari for appetizer. The calamari rings were tender with the breading light and crunchy. A very nice start to our entrees. Soy Glazed Sea Bass - 5/5 The bass filet was marinated with a slightly sweet soy glaze. The fish filet was not dry, and was cooked perfectly. The veggies (carrots & String beans) were cooked perfectly. You have a choice between rice and potato au gratin. I chose the potato au gratin which was very good and tender. It was not overly baked or too cheesy. A great selection. Prawn Pasta a la Cream - 5/5 This pasta dish wasn't very tasty. The Puran's were large and prepared perfectly - nice and tender. The tomatoes were real fresh chucks, not canned tomatoes. The white cream sauce was rich with a background of wine flavor. The pasta was cooked al dante. A very nice pasta dish. Blackened Salmon - 4/5 The blackened salmon was good. The filler was a tad over done which made parts of the salmon a little dry. The mash potatoes were buttery good. Surf and Turf - 5/5 The filet mignon was prepared perfectly medium rare. The filet was tenderly delicious! The lobster tail was around 6 oz. The lobster was broiled perfectly. It was not overly done. It was tender. We enjoyed our experience at Catch. The service was great and the food prepared was great. I recommend giving Catch a visit when you're visiting Carmel by the sea!

With three nights in Carmel, we were keen to try out some different places to eat, and Catch was number two. Initial impressions were good, as they offer you a shot of bubbly and a wee spoon of caviar as soon as you sit down. However, neither was of particularly good quality. Next came the wine order - they didn't have the Oyster Bay NZ Sauvignon Blanc that I asked for, but provided another variety that I'd never heard of - of course this was 'at the same price'. I've no idea what it would actually cost, although I suspect not as much as the New Zealand version. It wasn't bad, but I don't think it was in the same league as the Oyster Bay (which we like), and in retrospect I should have gone back to the wine list and picked again. For mains, I went with the halibut, which came with a ball of rice and not much else. The fish was tasty enough, but I felt it could have been a bit more imaginative. Then came the Mariachi guitarist... if there's one thing guaranteed to annoy me, it's musicians coming round the tables when you're trying to enjoy your meal. Just... please don't.

If you're in Carmel on a weekday, you know everything literally closes by like 8pm. Finding a spot to grab a light bite after 8pm is so difficult, so luckily I stumbled on this spot and they had oysters! I shared the half oysters, lobster sandwich, and clam chowder. The oysters were good, but I wish they had separated the cocktail sauce from the horseradish. The clam chowder was also good, but it was a bit more on the thicker chunkier side for me, but flavors were there! The lobster open faced sandwich was very filling and came with a side of salad. I loved the big bits of lobsters mixed in with some veggies. The staff here were also super friendly and sweet. They always checked up on us and made sure we were doing well. There's a lot of seating here indoors and outdoors. When we arrived, there was even some live music going on. It looks like this place and the Mediterranean place are owned by the same people which is probably why they're both open later than other businesses.

We had a beach day! Got hungry and stepped into this wonderful place. It had a nice and cozy feeling inside, they had instrumental versions of popular songs playing in the background which I really enjoyed. One of the best parts about this place was the complementary taste of Champagne and Caviar! omg!! Made my day. It was amazing. I don't eat a lot so just ordered a cup of clam chowder; it was good thick and creamy. I also ordered the house salad. (Added salmon to my salad) it was much larger than I thought it would be. The salad and salmon were very good. I enjoyed my virgin spritzer and am a happy girl. My husband ordered the fish tacos to drink he had the spa spritzer it has lemon cello in it he is a big fan of that. Our server Florencio was great! He checked on us just the right amount and was not pushy; we really liked him. I really want to bring my family back here I think they would really enjoy it.

Besides the poor service (being waited on by 3 different people) and them charging for my birthday dessert that was supposed to be complimentary, my boyfriend ended up with awful food poisoning 4 hours after eating here. He threw up for 5 hours and was feverish and shaking all night. Once it was out of his system by the next evening he was back to normal. The manager gave us a refund for his meal (sand dabs) and our oysters (he only had 1 oyster because he isn't a huge fan) which was alright, but then had the audacity to tell me "my grandma says that sometimes when you eat something you don't like you can psych yourself into throwing it up." It was classic food poisoning and I've never seen him so sick, so I didn't appreciate the gaslighting. Also, if you're going to offer complimentary champagne and caviar, I would suggest coming up to the table with it and offering, instead of just putting it down and making us feel very uncomfortable when we said we're sober so we will pass on the champagne. Not everyone drinks!

Very cute place, very friendly people here! A nice wine list. However, the food was really not enjoyable for us. The clam chowder was just a thick glob of flour and cream. I literally got one clam. I got fish tacos, and there was a huge mass of "slaw" which was basically shredded cabbage with maybe a little bit of seasoning. The three fish tacos were so enormous, my entire plate could have fed three people. And yet it wasn't good, so I did not eat it. My husband got a salad and it was similar... Just a lot of food, not presented well, and not tasty. I'm sorry. I do think you could give it a try because maybe they will do better.

I had lunch here with my wife, adult daughter, grand daughter and their lab Gigi. We were hungry and they were dog friendly so we dropped in for a late lunch. When we walked in there was only one other group in the restaurant. Sometimes when one dines at an off hour one is treated as a nuisance but not in this case. Even though we had a child and dog our server Luis was friendly, helpful and attentive. We were in the mood for salads and soups. The had a very nice clam chowder, my wife had the cilantro garlic shrimp sandwich, my daughter had the mango salad with shrimp and scallops, my 12 year old grand daughter had the kids pasta which was buttered spaghetti and I had the crab Louie salad. My salad was excellent with lots of crab meat and crispy lettuce. All in all we were very pleased and would return.

It's hard to stand out in a place like Carmel, California because everywhere you look there's another great looking place to eat. We were walking by Catch, wanted seafood and decided this was the spot. They seated us immediately at a great table and brought us a champagne and caviar amuse bouche, which was a really nice touch. Three of us ordered fish, one ordered chicken and everyone was really happy with their meal. Prices were reasonable, and service was excellent. Five stars!

Fish Tacos - 4 Stars Clam Chowder soup - 3 stars Crab cakes - 5 stars Good food, great service and ambiance. Started the meal with a small bit of caviar and light champagne. We don't like caviar but the champagne was good for a start on the evening. The service was very attentive and polite. One waiter but four people serving the room and they all worked together as a team. The crab cakes were huge lumps of shredded crab thrown in a little butter and fried up. The fish tacos were deconstructed so had the sauce and coleslaw on the side to add as I wanted. And clam chowder was ok but weird that it mostly cheese and much clams.

Recently I visited Carmel I went for a lunch time a Catch to celebrate my friend birthday. We arrived around for lunch and we been received with some complimentary caviar and sparkling wine. Server was very attentive and give us some recommendations. Food was delicious and very fresh. Very nice decoration. Nice to go for a romantic dinner.

Best seafood spot in Carmel! If you're hungry and a protein lover--dive in! The oysters are spot on. This place is exceptional: their seafood pasta, Frutti Di Mare, is so packed with seafood, you'll wonder if they forgot the pasta. The fish tacos? Delicious and loaded with fish--no skimping here! And don't miss out on the local sparkling wine--Folktale Rosé!"

This is the first five star review I have ever given! From the second we entered this lovely space to the moment we bid adieu, we were impressed. Mind you, we dine out often and are very familiar with the offerings in Carmel and the peninsula. It was a Monday evening in the off season so we knew it likely wouldn't be crowded. We had made and canceled reservations at two other restaurants nearby. They neither one fit what we were seeking. The third choice was truly magical! Florencio greeted us at the door and ushered us into the interior of this well decorated space. Delicious sourdough bread and an olive oil/balsamic blend were quickly served. As we perused the menu, two small glasses of champagne and two spoons laden with cavier were presented, gratis. What a lovely surprise! We each ordered a cocktail, an Italian Margherita and a gin and tonic, the smoked salmon and a caesar salad for starters. When the first course was complete, we both decided on the double lobster tail with potato gratin and vegetables and each ordered a glass of the Carmel Road Pinot Noir. The lobster was succulent and perfectly prepared! We thoroughly enjoyed the roving guitarist as we ate our dinner. After we finished our meal we both decided that dessert would be too heavy. However, before long a perfectly portioned small plate of baklava appeared, again gratis. We have dined multiple times at their sister restaurants, Demetra and PortaBella, both divine. Please stop in and treat yourself, you will be delighted you did! We shall return.

Came here for dinner. I was surprised how good it was since the restaurant was pretty empty. Only a few tables were occupied. The staff was very attentive and really good at explaining what they have on their menu when we order our dishes it came out right away along with our drinks the food was very delicious and it was really good. My husband and I enjoyed ourselves a lot. We finished everything and had no leftovers. Halfway to the dinner, they came to light candle on our table and we had live music so the environment and restaurant was really nice and the music was also really romantic. I will recommend coming here. It was a really really great place.

The atmosphere is really great. They bring in a singer/ guitarist most nights which I love. I was really craving fish so we came here, but the crab cakes were very "mayonnaise-y" the oyster shooters were not all created the same? Frankly I'm not sure what the combination was as they were not even, nor did they taste the same. The salmon was very flavorful and the presentation was nice. Everyone else ordered very nice dishes so maybe I need to try something else. The waiter came by frequently in the beginning and not much later on.

On our first day here we stopped in for a quick snack and a drink. Sheriff was so nice and attentive that we had to return for dinner tonight. I can't say enough good things about the service. The food is great too. We will come back before we leave. Great service!!!

Let's start with food, shall we? We ordered fish tacos, burger, fish and chips and clam chowder. If you want to order burger specify how well you want it cook, otherwise it will be on a raw side, which not great if you order it for kids. Fish and chips were decent, came with delicious sauce. Clam chowder was very bland lacking of flavor, salt, herbs, but came in delicious sourdough bread bowl, a bit stale but still good. The best dish was fish tacos with fresh veggies and palatable sauce! Confirming what is advertised in Yelp, they do greet each guest with glass of cold champagne and tiny spoon of black caviar (don't get excited it was not beluga,but cheap fish caviar that was colored). I will return to that restaurant it for the good but for the ambiance and interior with was absolutely magical and romantic! Both adults and kids will enjoy the splendor, wall art and soft light from unique lamps!

Very mediocre. The decor is very very tired. The seafood is good, uninspiring, just fine. Nothing is going to knock your socks off here. It is all edible and serviceable. The service friendly enough and the minstrel guitarist was lovely. There is no wine list to speak of so don't even try, but they poured a very heavy gin and tonic. I was shocked the concierge at our luxury hotel recommended this place. I mean, it is fine for a Tuesday night out at a shopping mall in Ohio, but for Carmel, no. Just no.

We came here on thanksgiving day as we were having a hard time finding restaurants that were open and this restaurant has openings. The service here is phenomenal, the host accommodated us although they were busy with many reservations, they gave us complimentary champagne and caviar for thanksgiving and he even ran out to give us our card we had forgotten! Working on thanksgiving night is tough and the staff were all so welcoming and hospitable. The restaurant itself is also high end looking with most beautiful jellyfish lights. 5 stars for the service and ambiance. The 3 stars is mostly for the food which is subpar/bad. The calamari we got was bland and chewy. It desperately needed salt. We also got the crab ravioli which was overly creamy and heavy and lacking in actual crab flavor. The clam chowder was alright but it tasted more like corn chowder and had little meat. Overall the food here didn't taste very fresh which is a key component of seafood. I am not sure if this is the ingredients they are using or the chef, but this place has a lot of potential if they work more on the food!

After an absolutely dismal dinner at the Fishwife the night before, we searched online and found our new favorite restaurant. The food is SO delicious and the wait staff is super attentive! I cannot recommend this wonderful place enough! The host, Dennis, was such a nice person. For some reason, after I was starting to leave, my balance thought it would be great fun to see if it could make me fall. Dennis quickly grabbed one arm, and my handsome hubby grabbed the other arm to keep me upright . Dennis rushed to get a chair for me to sit in while my hubby was getting the car. Our wait staff, Jamessa , was also a an excellent employee and showed she truly cared. The next time we come back to this area, this jewel will receive another visit from us!

Amazing service, delicious food, and beautiful decor! Sharif was amazing, he was very kind and attentive. This was some of the best seafood I have ever eaten. 10/10!!

Food is very delicious and service is good! They gave us complimentary wine and caviar. We ate her last may for our anniversary.

Service was bad. The waiter was not inviting and was short with his words. The food was a 7-8/10. But overall I would not want to go back there.

Outstanding lobster risotto even after having lived in Italy. Lovely setting welcoming of both relaxed & casual or dressier clientele, very gracious staff. If you enjoy oysters, try the shooters!

Reservations scheduled through OpenTable. Arrived and greeted with friendly smiles and were seated right away. Cute place and very it was packed! Great music playing overhead. Oysters on the half shell were so delicious and fresh. My husband's pizza was very tasty. The Sea Bass was amazing. I had it with potatoes au gratin and veggies which was perfect accompaniment along with a nice glass of Pinot Grigio.

They have the location so probably why there's so much foot traffic. Honestly the restaurant was a bit deceiving. Service was not good. Worked with four different staff, they forgot part of our order and still tried to bill us for it and overall the food did not hit the mark. I was not expecting this type of review for this spot. Unfortunate.

What an amazing experience at this wonderful restaurant located right on Ocean Avenue in Carmel. Their wine list is amazing and well priced so do order a nice bottle to enjoy with your meal. We had the crab cakes for appetizers and they were one of the best we've ever had. For our entrees I had the Kampachi- grilled simply with salt and pepper and served with mashed potato and vegetables. Amazing!!! The Kampachi itself is such a flavorful fish that it doesn't need any marinade or sauce. The wife had the veggie pasta which she said was great. Dessert was skipped because we were too full but the mint tea in the end worked as a great digestif. Love this restaurant!!

I dined here with my boyfriend and our family during a short trip and while service was amazing, the food itself was definitely not. First of all, we did not know that Catch is the sister restaurant to Dametra Cafe right next door and has multiple of the same items. We ate lunch at Dametra Cafe that same day and were hoping for something new and different for dinner at Catch. In fact, we even got the same waiter, which was funny and he gave us absolutely top notch service, but it was disappointing to see the lack of variety between the two restaurants in terms of dishes. We ordered the oysters and were never told where they came from. They also did not taste very good, had a piece stuck to the shell on every one, and also made my dad throw up later that night. For my entree, I had the lobster risotto, which was so disappointing. The scallop on top was clearly far from fresh and was chewy and rubbery. It was clear they used pre-frozen scallops and I was not happy, especially with how close they are to the actual beach/ocean. My boyfriend and a few other family members ordered the Surf and Turf--the lobster was burnt and rubbery as well as the steak. Both of which I refused to eat after tasting a little bit of. My dad enjoyed his salmon and my brother said the calamari steak was okay. Overall, we will not be returning.

Service, ambiance, food & the entirety of the place is great! My husband and I were just walking around the streets of Carmel trying to get seated somewhere for dinner. Fortunately, they just started taking in guests when we pass by their restaurant and got seated right away. You first get greeted with champagne and a small dollop of caviar (WHO DOES THAT?) and then they also serve bread with dipping sauce (vinaigrette & EVOO) which is also so good and fresh and then ordered Frito Misto for apps which is SOOOOO GOOD!! (Portion was great also) Their pasta list isn't very extensive which I appreciate because they each dish they list on their menu is made with love and care. I ordered Fresh spaghetti with clams instead of linguine (they only have spag opt if you want another pasta alternative, and it's freshly made ;)] Hubby ordered surf and turd and he was so pleased with the quality of the meat and the lobster! The portions were great! Not too big not too small! Just perfect! I would definitely come back and will totally recommend to my friends & fam when they go to Carmel!! Love love love! Ps. We got a sweet treat from a lovely musician who came and serenaded everyone in the restaurant!

Wonderful service, ambience, attentive staff! Guitar and songs too. Best calamari and halibut and they customized our requests. Highly recommend! We loved it!!

The three rockfish tacos were delicious. We also had the grilled jumbo prawns that were equally good. It had a great Cilantro mayo sauce for dipping that was very good. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Catch Point Formerly a Mediterranean restaurant, aptly named "Mediterranean," this restaurant underwent a remodel back in early '20 but kept the original owners. Now, Catch has been self-annointed as "Carmel's Fish House," and features a bevy of fresh, 100% sustainable seafood and a menu that features much what one would expect from a Monterey Bay seafood joint--with one caveat as Catch pays homage to their former Mediterranean heritage with lots of pasta options and even seafood pizzas The Good: *Dog-friendly outdoor seating *Reservations are available through their website or OpenTable®. *Great location in the heart of downtown Carmel-by-the-Sea. *Complimentary champagne and caviar shooters are a nice touch to go along with their complimentary warm focaccia and oil. *Clam Chowder was excellent! Thick broth with lots of clams and not too many taters to kill the flavor. It was particularly delicious when using the bread as a scooping device. *The Cioppino was too outstanding, as it had a shipload of seafood mixed into it (no crab), and the broth itself was delicious and full of great seafood and tomato flavor. The Meh: *Website claims to have "oceanview" dining. Hmm... ok, sure. :) *Carissa's Grilled Salmon Plate was a bit of a disappointment, as the fish was overcooked and the Potatoes au Gratin (side dish) were also dried-out. *Service was a bit iffy, as the server was nice enough and was trying, but he seemed to struggle with timing and consistency throughout the service. However, this might have had something to do with our seating arrangements. (See below) The Ugly: *They have this narrow hallway outdoor seating area (owner calls it the "outdoor alley") that's, to be kind, is sorta strange. You're kind of tucked away in a dark alley and feel forgotten about as it took nearly ten minutes before we were greeted, and throughout the meal requests weren't fulfilled and paying the bill at the end took a good twenty additional minutes. TLDR: An almost perfect meal (minus the salmon) and iffy service brings this place to a 3.5* but rounded up because we'll most likely be back.

I had a Birthday dinner with my teenage daughter there. The food was great, especially Fried Calamari. The service was great too. The server, Mario, was friendly and professional. We loved it very much and will be back! Thank you, Mariko

Great food!!! Fun night! Loads of food! 2nd time here and will definitely come again

The cuisine was simply exceptional was greeted with a complementary appetizer that included caviar! Unfortunately, the ambiance didn't meetup. Pleasantly surprised with the service (from a younger crowd, these teens and twenty somethings were taught well and they listened). Better than standard for downtown Carmel.

This was a perfect beginning for my birthday trip! The staff was amazing the live music was fantastic this I will never forget.

Absolutely loved this place. From the moment we walked in we were treated with the best service and fabulous food. We both had the halibut. Absolutely incredible. They start you out with complimentary shot of champagne and a little spoonful of caviar. We loved it so much we went back 2 days later. Great food and great service!

Yikes, honestly I'm not usually this harsh but this food was surprisingly bad. Granted I got take out, and we only got one seafood item, so maybe the other food is better but what we got lacked flavor, innovation, and freshness of ingredients. We ordered foods we thought might travel decently since we were hoping to eat our food at the beach at sunset; a pizza, burger and fish and chips. We got a Mediterranean pizza, that had artichokes, olives, and tomatoes with tomato sauce and mozerella cheese. The sauce had zero flavor, the dough was fat and doughy, and the ratio of toppings to dough was all wrong. The tomatoes on the pizza were not good, they lacked flavor and had bad mealy texture, the artichokes were obviously out of a can or jar and tasted sour and otherwise flavorless. I had hoped given how close they are to artichoke fields they'd have decent ones but I was sorely mistaken. I'm not going to lie, I was almost angry at how bad it was, felt like a waste of money and calories. The burger was bland and boring, as were the fries. The fish and chips was also bland, the breading was not crispy and the fries tasted like they had been sitting around and didn't have enough salt. The only reason I am not giving this place 1 star is because all the staff I interacted with while waiting for my order were friendly and considerate. The interior looked nice enough and is very conveniently located, the outdoor area is also heated and cutely decorated. If they had decent food they would have something going for them but unfortunately they do not.

They take reservations! Online(I think) but definitely via telephone Street parking only and restaurant is romantic/ date night vibes -- outdoor seating offers heat lamps, candles on the table and white linen tablecloths I ordered: Open Faced Lobster Sandwich $25 - definitely interesting since it was open faced but taste was still good, bread was soft. Price was a tad more but maybe Friends ordered oysters and enjoyed them On my list of need to bring Bb here haha

Small little restaurant, Came in on a tuesday with our little family after the beach.The fish & soup menu was a little confusing to order .the clamp chowder was thick and salmon could have been more flavorful.However the french fries was fairly good.

This restaurant is amazing every time we dine here. My fiancee dreams about the mashed potatoes here. On our recent visit, she ordered the Monterey Sand Dabs . Delicious! I ordered the Mediterranean Fish & Chips and they are awesome! The Bread pudding is a MUST TRY. We decided to end the meal with the Moroccan Mint tea. The waitress was great, and they even had a live performer that played the guitar and sang!

Service could improve. Went in and never got our drink order taken they got other tables orders even thought we were there first. Our food came out last people tht got there after us finished eating and our food wasnt out yet. They only came once to check on our table
