Loved my afternoon visit. Had exquisite California wines and some delicious bisque. I spent time gazing at the peaceful Monterey Bay with sailboats and otters and sea birds. The atmosphere here is quiet, refined, and friendly. I chatted with some regulars here and longtime residents of the area. I had a lovely early evening.
We didn't have any food we ate before we did Wine 🍷 tasting . We really enjoyed ate wine 🍷 tasting experience everyone we talk to was very knowledgeable and put their time with us I was not in a rush if you're into wine tasting make sure you go here and experience the great atmosphere sitting by where you can see the beach the seals the seagulls was really nice and I do have a flight of beer 🍻 tasting
Came in for wine tasting for the wife. I'm not a wine drinker. Beautiful views and good snacks. We ordered the five piece charcuterie board with chef selected accompaniments. Everything was very yummy. We also ordered the Monterey Crab Dip. It's less of a dip and more of a spread to go with the sourdough bread that comes with it. Also yummy.
My wife got the Rose All Day wine flight, which she really enjoyed.
Awesome place. Good views. Tasty food. Would recommend and would come back. Thank you everyone!!
Loved my evening here! Attentive service, good food, and all with a great ocean view. My husband and I were visiting cannery row and meandered in for a quick drink. We ended up staying for food and a sunset. The crab dip was delicious, as was the clam chowder, which was unlike any I’ve ever tried. We were seated at a small table overlooking the water, which made for a great experience.
Elyse is great! 1st time there & can't wait to go back!
Beautiful views!! Could've spend the whole day there. Great wine selection and tasty bites.
Great food and drinks. The staff is super friendly and helpful. If you don't know about the wine tasting or food pairings just ask for a suggestion. I was not disappointed in the options I was given.
A great place to try different local wines. There are a bunch of different wine flights you can choose. The food was great and the views were incredible.
So glad that the host at my B&B recommended this place for a nice early dinner. Liked it so much I returned two afternoons later! Great selection of wines that can be ordered by the bottle, by the glass, or a 3-glass tasting flight. Food was tasty, filling, varied, and reasonably priced. As good as the food and wine were, though... the star attraction is honestly the view. Absolutely enormous windows looking out onto the bay. I thought I was coming here to dine alone, but no... my dining companions were the sea otters of Monterey Bay. Watched a mother otter cradling her baby while floating in the kelp as I delighted in a bowl of Asparagus Bisque and a dry Cabernet Sauvignon with peachy notes. The only bad thing about this place is that they close on the early side... I think it was 6pm or a little after. Maybe that will change in the future? But definitely come here for a lunch or an early dinner. PS: Wait staff very friendly and helpful. That matters a lot these days!
Had a good lunch outing. Service was friendly and great. Goof selection of wine flights and tasty appitizers. The view was peaceful and relaxing.
Great wine tasting experience, great service, great view of the bay.
One of my favorite wine tasting places because of the view, friendly staff and the affordable wines. Love the monterey crab dip too. If you call ahead of time you can ask for a view right in front of the ocean. Will come here every time I visit Monterey.
My Fiance and I visited for his birthday dinner, and the experience was amazing! First of all, you can't beat the view. Right up on the ocean and you can see sail boats, sea otters, and whales in the distance! They had great local wines available and the food was tasty too. We had the flatbread, dungeness crab dip, shrimp and grits, and a charcuterie board. They have a great selection of cheeses and the small plates didn't fail.
Beautiful views by the windows and surprisingly quiet compared to nearby ocean-side restaurants. Calming music which was a nice treat. They have binoculars if you request them. Lovely staff. The Big Sur Golden Ale was delicious. Food was great too, although nachos a little over done.
We saw otters and a whale 🐋
Fabulous experience! Wine and beer flights, food and serving Associates...stylish art filled (locals) tasting room and quality gifts to purchase. On the water makes for a stunning location for such an enjoyable afternoon! Thank you!
Best view, chill, wine tasting I've ever been. Food was superb as was the wine. And the views were spectacular! A must do after a busy day of site seeing!
Breathtaking view, quiet atmosphere, fantastic wine. We stopped in here after eating to wait out traffic and this ended being our favorite place of the day! The wine flights are a great way to try something new. The staff is knowledgeable and incredibly friendly.
What an awesome experience...Ocean front, watching sea otters, whales, the seagulls what an incredible time for my 30th birthday! The charcuterie board was on point, dungeness crab dip was high quality, shrimp and grits were the best I've EVER had! The flatbread pizza was crisp and fresh! Flights of wine? Who doesn't love that especially with diverse options. My fiance and I will be returning when we get married in Carmel for our wedding in July. Thank you A taste of Monterey for phenomenal food and great wine with a breath taking view. You made my weekend!
Fun place to stop and have a taste of the local wines. They represent dozens of Monterey area vineyards and have put together a nice selection to choose from. The nibbles that go along are reasonably priced. The only thing that keeps me from giving it five stars is the flights are a bit expensive for what you get.
