We are excited to transform Monterey Bay's best location into the newest, freshest, seafood restaurant. Enjoy an all-new ambiance, waterfront tables, and exciting menu items!

For more than one hundred years, fishing has been a vital part of Monterey’s economy. Monterey’s historic Fisherman’s Wharf with its colorful shops, seafood markets, and flavorful restaurants, is a reflection of that history. Rockfish celebrates Monterey’s fishing tradition and enjoys the Wharf’s most expansive, panoramic views of the working harbor.

Stop by and enjoy a cocktail and our stunning views at the restaurant’s bar and lounge. Our ambiance is casual California and it’s suitable for visitors of all ages. Come see for yourself. You’ll be glad you did!

Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Rockfish Harbor Grill offers "great views" and a vibrant atmosphere at the end of Fisherman's Wharf. While some dishes shine, like the Monterey scampi, feedback on food quality varies. The service receives mixed reviews, but the "excellent customer service" and scenic location make it a popular spot for families and casual dining.

    Mashed Potatoes on their signature Tri-plate were lumpy and roasted shrimp were smaller than in the past, but taste was excellent as expected.

    No one recognized we were there to celebrate our 10 year anniversary, the place did not made our evening special. This is not a place for celebrations.

    The location is beautiful and right at the end of the wharf. It was a cold and windy night when we dined, so the restaurant and entire area was super quiet (probably more than usual). I had a cosmo that tasted like it didn’t have any alcohol in it, but our food was decent. As you can imagine (for a super touristy area), it’s very expensive for what you get but the view and great service created an enjoyable evening for our family!

    The food was good, not great. The service was very good. I’d like to see a larger portion of fish for the money.

    The Monterey scampi was awesome. The Sicilian sauce made it very unique with great flavor.

    The only issue was the waiter forgot our bread basket and we had to ask for it after our main course had arrived. The bread did not seem fresh? It was hard on the outside. But the rest of our meal was good and the staff was attentive refilling our water glass and soda. The best part of this restaurant it the view.

    My brother-in-law and I both ordered the “special” which was seabass. We were told it was $35 and that they only had 4 left. When our meals arrived we each had tiny portions of seabass - probably 3 ounces. When our server finally came back to check on us, we asked about portion size. He said we had received 8 ounces, but that he would speak to the manager. He came back, said the portions had actually been 7 ounces and that he would take $10 off our bill. We assumed he meant $10 for each meal, but no, it was $10. Our total bill for 4 was $225 before tip. We won’t be back.
