Ordered clam chowder and a roll of bread. Fried calamari only. To go. Was about $50. It's a good treat every so often. Consistently good quality on these two items. If you eat inside women receive a rose.

The food was absolutely amazing! The ambiance is so romantic. The server was so attentive and helpful with the menu. Celebrating my birthday!

One of the best food experiences we have ever had. Wonderful food, great service, and old school ambiance. We have never been here before and we're traveling to the Monterey area and has to try out this place. We definitely will be back!! The manager on duty was extremely accommodating and very helpful. We loved everything we ordered.

Luis was our service person. He was very nice and recommended the local offerings of the day. He had mentioned that bottles of wine were on special, and we do not drink. I asked about military discounts instead cans he said that was not available at this time. I was honestly just asking, because the wine was on special to be sassy. Luis came back with an amazing appetizer for us to share.
Shocked and amazed. But swiped grateful... and he didn't with a smile.
The food was fantastic and hit the spot. Coconut shrimp with the mango sauce was GREAT. Totally hit the spot!
To end our dinner, he offered my husband a dessert on the house for his military service. How sweet was that! Totally unexpected! This is quite an honor.
Really good service and great food. Service with a smile and just over all great customer service.
I would totally rate this place more than the 5 star limit.
Impeccable and super wonderful experience.

Food was delicious and service was excellent! We have been here numerous times and it never disappoints.

Great place! Gustavo was very attentive and wonderful, great food. Highly recommended!!

Food and service was great. Loved the Lobster rolls and soup but not super filling. Definitely recommend!

We've been visiting Old Fisherman's Grotto each time we stay in Monterey several times a year. This restaurant has exceptional food, amazing ambiance and we are always treated like royalty! It's fun to be recognized by staff members. We cannot recommend this wonderful experience enough! Try the Ultimate seafood pasta or the Macadamia Nut encrusted Halibut, but never pass on the opportunity to enjoy the best chowder anywhere!

Best spot for dinner with a view! From the moment we walked in the door we were treated with the up most respect! I believe the grandson walked us to our table and he gave us some history about the restaurant and started a conversation. He offered us a complementary calamari appetizer just for us returning here. Our server Ricardo was amazing. Very attentive and the food was amazing. To end the night we were handed a rose. Thank you for amazing food and amazing view.
