- LLauraVIPSan Francisco Bay Area •41 reviews5.0Dined todayWe absolutely know we will be treated like royalty when we visit Old Fisherman’s Grotto. Once again they delivered. Sal made us feel like family. We started with calamari and artichokes with a nice drink from the bar. The calamari was crispy with the sauces adding a bit of excitement to each bite. The artichoke was creamy and rich. Bread and butter was served. We felt relaxed and never in a hurry. After the appetizer we put in the order for dinner, double lobster tails for him and 1/2 crab, salmon and grilled shrimp for me. We were both so happy with our meals. Dessert was the cherry on top, ollalieberry pie a la mode for him and and beautiful chocolate and vanilla cake with strawberries for me. Our water was constantly refilled. The view of the harbor was also very relaxing. I can’t wait until we are in town again to enjoy the hospitality once again.More infoOld Fisherman's GrottoPrice: Expensive• Seafood• Monterey•4.7

- OTOpenTable DinerSan Francisco Bay Area •4 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoServer was friendly, Bridget, if I recall, and on top of it. Husband’s birthday. They brought not only the birthday desert, but a nice taste of the strawberry gelato and blood orange sorbet — because she heard how we wanted to taste it. Husband had the filet perfectly cooked. I had the short rib very tasty, but maybe a bit too much salt. The ambiance was warmly inviting. Just the right amount of light added to a feeling that we were welcomed.More infoMontrioPrice: Expensive• Californian• Monterey•4.6
- CCandyceSan Francisco Bay Area •4 reviews5.0Dined on 15 Dec 2024Such a great restaurant. We were there early (long story), but were seated anyway. Monterey had just experienced a huge rainstorm and power outage (although Fisherman's Wharf seems to have gotten its power back sooner than the neighboring area). The servers and staff were unbothered and waitstaff was prompt, cordial, and friendly. Plus the food was great! you can't go wrong with seafood in Monterey. But this was a notch up.More infoDomenico's on the WharfPrice: Moderate• Seafood• Monterey•4.5
- NNeliVIPSan Francisco Bay Area •8 reviews5.0Dined on 9 Dec 2024This is fhe first time my family visited Abalonetti Bar and Grill, and we liked it. The food was delishious, and the service was spotless. I especially liked the oysters with pesto, and my husband liked the crusted rockfish. My mother enjoyed her angel hair pasta, too. On the flip side, they have only four deserts on the menu and tiramisu is not one of them. They do not have espresso, either. Very disappointing. I recommend this restaurant for its great location, delicious food and the friendly and professional service.More infoAbalonetti Bar and GrillPrice: Moderate• Seafood• Monterey•4.4
