    It was my wife's birthday, we were seated at the window, as I was pleasantly surprised. It was a comfortable non-rushed dinner. We chose the lobster arancini appetizer and it was perfect. The filet was off the charts and could cut it with a fork. Our server was a real people person, friendly and very attentive. I thanked the maitr'd for seating us at a window table and complemented him on his choice of music. It was a very enjoyable evening from start to finish!

    Great experience winner of Restaraunt week . Also want to call out the Valet team! Was incredibly busy and one unhappy customer public berated staff, I watched as a young man kept his composure and professionalism while facing publc belittling. I struggled to keep my composure from afar but he never did! WHAT A JOB for this young man !

    The atmosphere is amazing, the views are outstanding. Our service was great as well. The food was good. The cocktails were really good. I wanted the food to be better for the price you pay. I wanted to be blown away for $500 for 2 couples. But overall I had a nice time.

    Our first time at Monterey Bay and we will definitely be back. The view is incredible, the seating was intimate, the food was delicious (I am still thinking about the grilled angel food cake), and our server, Jen, was wonderful!
