   We’ve been coming here for over 10 years. My wife and I only come for special occasions. Everytime we’ve been here, Chart House gets it right. The drinks are strong and the food is impeccable. The service is always pleasant. And we always get a great seat in the restaurant. If you want a fancier dinner, this is your place! Tip: Make a reservation. They book up fast!

   We love dining at CH in Monterey. Valentine’s dinner experience was exceptional except for the noise level. Hearing our server and she hearing us was difficult due to the loud and unsettling choice of music. This night, especially, should have provided music that was more sophisticated and soothing rather than jarring, loud, fast tempo. We felt the choice in music was meant to get people in and out due to the large amount of patrons for this night. And, of course, when music is overly loud people have to raise voices to be heard. The combination was too much. I left with a headache. We both enjoyed our dinner very much, appreciated our wonderful server and had the best table at a window. Overall, we left very satisfied with our meal and we will definitely come back. CH is a favorite restaurant for us. But, please CH…music should be enjoyed in the background allowing a peaceful dinner with conversations that can be had without shouting or leaning over the table to hear.

   We were disappointed that they didn't have their stuffed full of goodies backed potatoes. That was one of the main reasons we booked at the ChartHouse.

   As always, an amazingly delicious meal, spectacular service by Alyssa, we just absolutely love this place. Thanks to all who always make our dining event at the Charthouse so wonderful. We are locals, and this is our absolute favorite place to treat ourselves to, we are so lucky to have this great spot in our own backyard.

    We ordered an appetizer and dinner at the same time but of course, wanted the appetizer first. The salad came out first, then the soup and then the appetizer. WRONG order of food to come out. When we were done with an item the server came to the table but did not take the dirty plates or condiments that we finished. I did not expect that from the Chart House, maybe Chili's but not the Chart House. The service was not up to the standard we are used to at this restaurant at all.
