My partner and I came to Fishermans grotto on a Monday night. The wait staff was extremely attentive and kind! They sat us by a window upstairs and the vibes were immaculate. The clam chowder was a 10/10. We also got the mushroom ravioli and the baby spinach salad which were also amazing. At the end the wait staff gifted me a rose and that was the perfect touch to an already beautiful night.

The food and the service are exceptional!!!! I highly recommend the Calamari and Ultimate seafood pasta - it has so much seafood and the flavor is everything! You will not be disappointed. Great ambiance too, with great views of the water.

Great ambiance and great food. Even got a rose after dinner. Very classy!! Had a window seat so we could see the harbor and some seals.

This is a classic old style restaurant. Blast from the past. I had a crab Louie salad that was very different and it was delicious. I am not used to seeing fresh fruit on this salad. The cannoli was probably the best I've had. The service was exceptional.

My husband and I had a lovely last meal here in Monterey stopping into Grotto's.

We had a 15 minute wait, then were seated. Every staff member we had an encounter with was very friendly & kind. We started off with oysters, a cup of chowder and purchased a bottle of red wine. We also ordered the chef special which was a really delicious octopus!
For our entrees I had a shrimp pasta with a cream base and my husband ordered a seafood platter of some sort. We were stuffed with no room for dessert.

But the experience was lovely, so clean and everyone was so friendly. Food was delicious. Can't wait to visit again. Thank you for the experience. 🙂

We ordered the calm cheddar in a bread bowl and the seafood pasta. The seafood pasta was delicious and the calm cheddar is one of the best in the area. The service was good. Our server, Pablo(not sure if I spell his name right) was great. The only thing I wasn't very happy about was the seats. The table was tiny, and we were cramped.

Delish spot on the wharf for steamed clams and a cup of chowder.

Service was quick. We sat at the outdoors area with the smaller menu. Warning no fish and chips here just pastas, steamed goods.

The vibe of this place is so cool! It's got an old timey vibe and it's right on the water. The service was quick and friendly. And the food! Everything was amazing! The clam chowder was the best I ever had, the garlic bread was delicious, and the fish tacos had great flavor compliments. We ate everything up and definitely need to come back
