We visited twice during our Indy Race weekend. Once on our walkaround day, and a return for late dinner. The settings are comfortable. The breakfast pizza was amazing and the following alcohol laden milkshake was delicious. The service was OK, but not stellar in terms of staff coverage of the entire bar/restaurant. Nice to be surrounded by race themed pictures.
Turn 12 has become a staple visit on every trip to Monterey for years and years. The automotive theme throughout the restaurant is awesome to look at and really adds to the vibe. The food and service are the best part though as they should be. Our waitress, Mattelyn, was very friendly, prompt, and gave good recommendations. We tried the special pizza for the night which was a grilled peach pizza with goat cheese and other toppings and it was incredible. We all loved everything we ate. You should definitely come here.
You can’t beat the outside patio at Turn 12 on a beautiful day. Really enjoyed both the pizza and flat bread and the truffle fries are a must try! It’s an amazing place to grab a few drinks or enjoy some great food.
Place is clean and cool inside. The bar area is big with many screens for games. Pretty cool spot. The food was great.
We had a huge party of 18. The wait staff was amazing. The atmosphere is very welcoming. I had an amazing meal. The meat was falling off the bone and really amazing taste.
Staff is very friendly and welcoming, burger was tasty, truffle fries were awesome.
Cocktail bar looks great although custom drinka prep is expensive (even just adding juice) and staff lacks knowledge to make them properly.
We had an amazing experience dining here. Great service, many options on the dinner menu and tasty food. The Grilled Chicken Breast with spinach risotto was delicious, loved it so much!! The New York Steak was ok ! overall, I recommend this place.
Food was really good. Place was clean and waiter was really friendly. Looking forward to going back.
Tomato bisque with toasted bread was so rich and tasty. My friend had the breakfast pizza and he loved it. Truffle fries are fragrant and delicious. Everything was so good and i could smell good food everywhere. This was outstanding food AND you could order food until 10pm when everyone else closes at 8:40-9 AND they now have a midnight menu starting at 10pm. Super nice servers and nice ambience. Madison, our server, was worthy of a 10/10 for service, amiability and efficiency. 5/5 overall. Will be coming back.
We had a large party of 13 at our table and despite the challenges with such a large group the dining experience was outstanding. Service was impeccable and our meals were served hot and delicious with minimal wait time. I have posted numerous pictures of meals enjoyed by the group. My wife and I split the rib eye steak meal and there was plenty for both of us. The split was served on separate plates. We also had a special birthday celebration and an amazing chocolate cake was baked by the chef for us. The restaurant is an iconic place for motorsports enthusiasts, with photos and other artifacts that adorn the walls throughout the large dining areas and bar. There are antique motorcycles also on display. This place is a must go for local and visiting race fans!!
Loved this place great menu we had calamari and grace for starters. They got burgers one with BBQ sauce one without. Finish their plates. I got the pork with verdesauce wasn't super flavorful but still good. Overall our service was great and we left full and happy
Great Atmosphere, friendly service.
Tagliatelle Bolognese was super tasty.
Cool spot and so thankful for it because it was the only restaurant/bar still open and serving food (till 1am) when I arrived late in Monterey. Lots of snack foods and pizzas and a full bar. Bartenders were attentive and provided great service. Seems like a lot of regulars come here.
Great restaurant with Formular 1 style interior. Waitress was very kind and helpful (thanks Jennifer)!
We had a great night having dinner.
Good way very tasty and fresh. Was served hot and nicely decorated in the dish.
I did have New York steak with excellent French fries. My wife had salmon. Parking in front at around 7:30 pm was no issue.
Much nicer to sit than at the Old Fisherman’s wharf.
It’s a pretty cool place and one of the bigger bars in the downtown. There is a parking garage right in front of the business. Drinks were ok , we did not order anything out of ordinary although service could be a bit faster. We really loved the ambiance of the place , lots of bikes and picture of bikers. If you ride bike then check it out. The veggie pizza was delicious and I would definitely go there when I am in the town again.
Out of all the restaurants my fiancé and I went to, this one was by far the best. The waitress actually checks up on you, the chef even made sure our food was perfect and you can’t beat the price! They even made me a burger that’s not on the menu!
I had salmon tacos, they were fantastic. The truffle Parmesan fries were also delicious. They have outdoor seating at the moment. Bathrooms were really clean. I did get a dirty tea cup but was taken care of immediately and given a different cup. But still... makes you wonder if their dishes are actually getting cleaned well enough. The food and atmosphere were really nice though, I would come back and I would also recommend to others.
Great stop for an afternoon cocktail and appetizers! Had a glass of the Kim Crawford wine ( I really liked it, thank you for suggesting it). We also ordered a Russian River Brewery beer “Blind Pig” (very good). The Ahi Tower and Calamari were delicious. Turn 12 Bar and Grill has a great ambience with racing decor throughout. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Monterey (or living in the area).
