Everything, their oysters are the best. Service is superior. Must make a reservation. Option order your food to go and have dinner on the beach.

The Monterey Fish House was recommended to us by a friend, also the concierge at our hotel. We were not disappointed. The staff, service and food were excellent. I would certainly recommend this restaurant to anyone.

Given the popularity of this place, people were queuing out of the door the time we went, it's remarkable things run as smoothly as they do.

This is a noisy place and it's hard to have a conversation. The service was excellent with very pleasant staff. Because it was a warm day the back door... More

My last dinner there last week will be my last dinner there. We were told the swordfish was fresh and so we ordered two dinners and wine. The fish was far from... More

Fish house was recommended by a local while I was visiting Monterey. I went on a sat night and there was a line forming at 445 pm (15 min before they opened). While in line I found out that the people in line had reservations and I did not. If you do not have reservations you must sit at bar... More
