Restaurants in Monterey

We booked The Boatshed because it is on the water. Unfortunately the weather was terrible for my overseas visitors. However, the service and the food that was provided was fantastic! Highly recommend The Boatshed!

We had the pleasure of dining at Pappina’s Pizza Restaurant on a Sunday evening, and it was nothing short of fantastic. Making a reservation through OpenTable was quick and hassle-free, setting the tone for an easygoing evening. The restaurant has a welcoming atmosphere with spacious seating options both indoors and outdoors. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted warmly and attended to with impeccable service, even though the place was quite busy. We started with a fresh rocket salad and opted for one of their newer pizza options topped with fresh prosciutto. The staff kindly accommodated our request to have the salad served alongside our main, and everything arrived promptly. The salad was crisp and refreshing, while the pizza was absolutely delicious — the crust was perfectly crafted, satisfying even my picky Italian standards. To top it all off, we enjoyed a crisp Moretti Italian beer, which was the perfect companion to the meal and a lovely way to wind down the weekend. Pappina’s strikes the perfect balance between great food, a warm atmosphere, and excellent service. We’ll definitely be back
