Did feel slightly rushed through the meal even though they were not crowded at all.More infoSpotted DuckPrice: Expensive• Bistro• Pacific Grove•4.6
- WWendySan Francisco Bay Area •1 review5.0Dined on 10 Nov 2024We hadn’t visited the Carmel Mission Inn for several years and knew that it had been refreshed since our last visit. We decided to have dinner at Shearwater Tavern, tucked inside the Carmel Mission Inn and had an absolutely wonderful experiencey. Our outstanding dining experience began with a delicious Caesar Salad paired with their wonderful signature Parker House Rolls—warm, house-baked, and served with local honey butter and a bit of sea salt. These starters set the tone perfectly for the main event: a flawlessly grilled bavette (flank steak), a favorite of ours, topped with a rich green peppercorn sauce and accompanied by crispy shoestring frites. Our steak arrived cooked precisely to our medium-rare preference and request, showcasing the kitchen's attention to detail.More infoShearwater TavernPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Carmel•4.3
