    We were all pleased with our food, we were there to celebrate a birthday. It is a loud restaurant if you have some hearing loss. We had a quieter corner table and also the outdoor heated patio is much quieter.

    Exceptional care and details to everything we ordered for brunch, I had their orange julius cocktail which is a nice take on a cream sickle before my over the top rubin arrived, one of the best ever. The rest of our party had crab benedicts, with lots of large pieces of dungeness crab and perfectly finished poached eggs. It also has a wonderful view from east cliff to west cliff drive.

    We had to evacuate our house, and because of that we could not make a Thanksgiving dinner. The folks at the Plumed Horse were beyond gracious and made our Thanksgiving, in very trying circumstances, a delightful memory. As always, the food was excellent, service elegant, and the people divine. Thank you all so much for saving our holiday!

    Our dining experience at Schooners was exceptional. The food was fabulous, the service friendly, and we were made to feel valued. There are many excellent restaurants in Monterey and Schooners is among my favorites.

    We got a seat at the bar ordered cocktails and small dishes. Everything was uniformly excellent. The barkeeper was knowledgeable and made a beautifully balanced Manhattan. The small dishes recommonded were all tasty and of high quality. Overall the only reason to dock a star is that Nobu is expensive (big surprise). But if you are not cost sensitive, then this is an excellent place for high quality drinks and light dishes. Recommended.
