Their unique, playful menu takes flavor influence from all over place. Everything was tasty, but the Grilled Verlasso Salmon absolutely incredible. Read all about it on WinstonWanders below! Read more

New Monday night specials for VIP cardholders; changes - ex: truffle fries w/ sparkling wine $6 (13.50 value) or 50% off any specialty cocktail. Ask for the card if you dont have one.

Good food & service. 48 hour bacon, good but vinegar a bit heavy in peanut sauce. Smoked salmon app was very good. Brick chicken and Bacon & Egg salad good. Too much vinegar in salad dressing.

Don't leave Monterey without eating here! Make a reservation so you don't miss out. It's right next door to the Marriott so I expect that they get a lot of walk-ins.

This is one of the best meals I had on a recent visit to Monterey, and one of the best Moscow Mules I've ever* had.

Reservation needed if you don't have a reservation you can sit outside don't worry they have heaters outside to make the stay comfortable.

Anthony's cocktails are amazing. They rival anything you might find in NYC, SF or Chicago. Definitely stop by for a nicely created cocktail.

Tasty food. Atmosphere and menu were probably current in 1995, but the service was very good. Good martini.

They made our anniversary very special here. You may think “but do I really need the bread pudding?” The answer is yes.

Great place with excellent food and 50% of bottles of wine (at least on Sundays).

Attention was perfect! Oatmeal Crusted Brie and the White Anchovies... both lovely in their own way.
Kimberly AllenSeptember 13, 2013
A personal favorite.. Lots of great appetizers and small bites for happy hour ... Friendly staff who are long term employees.

THIS place fired off my quest to taste bread puddings across the country. Not one to oversell, box half your entrée and save room. Don't love passion fruit? Neither do I. Trust the chef.

Had a Great Time, Wonderful Tapas and Wonderful Staff!
Whitney FishmanOctober 20, 2015
Mushrooms & polenta are excellent. Grilled artichoke is solid. The duck was quacktastic.

The mussels and mushroom app were absolutely amazing. Would go back for the mussels everyday

Try the Chipolte Fries! They are AMAZING!

The bacon chop is magical
La CjargneleJune 8, 2013
Certified Angus steak w/ truffle fries was good, soft juicy meat. Other dishes were good, but not enough for the price.. We won't recommend this place.

Have been going here since it opened and have yet to have a bad meal!
Joe Murphy LibrarianOctober 24, 2012
Find a classier place for dinner, but come here for dessert. Great selection.
Guy CoatesNovember 23, 2014
Everything is good. The only problem is parking.

Bartenders rock!!!! Ask for a custom drink and they'll match it to your taste.
