Best Restaurants for Spicy Food in Pacific Grove

A fun place with interesting cocktails. We really like the meatballs and Brussel sprouts, the chorizo boa not so much (the dough was undercooked and the meat a bit bland). Service was attentive. Quite noisy even on a Monday night

The best experience, our waiter was amazing and really took care of us. Even the owner came out to present our beautiful tomahawk steak.

Great food, cute location, friendly server! Also had live music- a bonus since it was unplanned-for. Since we had a group of 4, we went for the "small" island basket, which was 3 entrees and 2 appetizers on a giant woven basket / platter. Very special experience (and SO much food :-) Only downside was that we'd originally made lunch reservations but the restaurant was clearly not open when we showed up (on time for the reservation itself; half an hour after the restaurant's opening time for the day). Ended up going in for dinner instead (hence the "unplanned" part of the live music). Would highly recommend, aside from the owner's opening-up glitch.

Appetizers were good. Tea was ok. Meals were good, flavorful, presentation was good. Waiter should should explain a little more about the specials if someone says it's their first time there and it's their bday.
