Old Fisherman's Grotto - Monterey

The best seafood I ever had! the ultimate pasta has a large amount of seafood and 3 colors of pasta. the service is great! I feel very respected and the server gave me a rose that made my day. I had this week a really bad week and that helps me feel much better.

The ruler I think was called shake? was a very nice gentleman and got us a table in fast order, the server I think was called gustavo was a very informative and attentive server that gave us the sequence of everything they serve, and what is popular and his personal favorite and he does not disappoint. the food was so delicious and well prepared, in any case again. I like the atmosphere and the classic 50s music art a romantic atmosphere with candlelight and at the end of eating they give them a rose, as thoughtful, this is a perfect place for a date with their important others. for the people who have children, this place does not allow children or children's car, so simply pre-warned, this is only for adults. If they have children, I want to eat something similar, they can probably go down to the fish hopper as they are in the possession of the same people and eating is also fantastic there.

Amazing eating! we had the abalone and pistachio crowded ling special followed by cream brulee. beautiful dishes and so good. I can't say enough about the policy for a calm atmosphere. that is not enough in restaurants. eltern should never be insulted by a policy that supports clean, quiet environments. just because they like loud obnoxic environments, that doesn't mean that we all do that. Not to mention, it is impossible to get eat from carpet so that most restaurants smell damp. there is a million other options for children-friendly eating.

Love the ambience of the crooner music and the upscale feel. They don't allow loud children to interrupt a relaxing meal and even have signage outside to delineate that. Some might find that a bit snooty but I appreciate that. I don't mind my loud grandchildren at home or outdoors but at a nice restaurant it's just one of my pet peeves. The sourdough chowder bowl was outstanding. Enjoy.

My husband and I walked in on a Sunday evening and were seated right away! Miguel was a great server. We ordered the clam chowder bread bowl with garlic butter, which never disappoints, along with the avocado crab seafood tower. This is definitely the best spot for clam chowder and we will continue to return! Additionally, we loved the atmosphere, interior and the rose at the end of the meal.
