Delicious! The Linguini Isabella was especially flavorful, with plenty of seafood bits throughout the pasta. When eating the shrimp though, it didn't hold much of the sauce taste. The crab cake in the seafood sampler was amazing, especially with the small mango bits. The service was great and we left feeling very satisfied!

We have been coming to Old Fisherman's Grotto for ten years now, celebrating everything from our anniversary to engagement to our honeymoon. The food is always fantastic! And the service is incredible. The staff here are absolutely lovely, super accommodating, and very knowledgeable about the cuisine and make great recommendations. We are lucky to always have a table facing the water and it is such a great experience, with a nice ambiance. We order the barbecued oysters, artichoke, the dungenes crab, and my husband had some sort of halibut special I believe. All of it was incredible and we will of course be back again for the next celebration or visit to our favorite place by the sea.

Another great find. This is on the dock and lots of atmosphere here. We got seated right away and service was good. My wife and I shared the surf and turf and we shared the pear and Gorgonzola salad which by the way, I could've eaten the whole thing myself.We also had the crab cakes, yes they were fabulous. We shared a cup of clam chowder because we love chowder. Lol. So good. The prices were typical for what we got and worth it.

Food is so amazing we got into town on Monday was the first spot we ate at before leaving town we knew we wanted to come by once more we ordered the clam bake, Rockefeller oysters, fried calamari and the pasta Isabell. All the food was amazing. The clam bake is something not to pass on it's really worth it. The service was amazing both times

We had the appetizer that was "on the house" and the calamari was so good we ordered another round of it. I had the surf and turf which was cooked perfectly! The service was excellent with the waiter being very knowledgable on the entire menu and suggesting several different dishes. Lastly, the overall feel of the restaurant made you feel like you were on top of the water and very comfortable.

I forgot to post this a few weeks back. Took a trip to Aptos and had to hit up Monterey. Love this area and the great dinning in Monterey.

I think the food is good here overall. We started with some appetizers. We got the steam clams, the fried calamari and some fried artichoke hearts. I didn't have the clams. Yet the two other people with me said they were good. The fried calamari was very good. The sauce that it comes with is really good! The Fried Artichoke Hearts were good, but unfortunately, they were on the small side. That and not a lot of them. I'm not sure it's something I'd order again. Yet, they were good.

I wasn't particularly impressed with my dish. Which was the... Mushroom Ricotta Cheese Ravioli. Which is served with marinara sauce and a dollop of ricotta cheese. It was a bit bland for my taste.

My friend ordered their prize winning Clam Chowder. Which I tried and it was quite good! The sourdough bread bowl that it comes in was very good. Yet, the best part was... they made the top into a delicious mouth watering garlic bread! Yum!!!

My mom got the Ultimate Seafood Risotto. Which had 4 oz Lobster, Salmon, Sea Scallops and Prawns over a Spinach Risotto with Sundried Tomato & Beurre Blanc.

The food here is not inexpensive. Yet, it's a place to go to at least once in your life. It definitely made the trip there worthwhile.

The clam chowder garlic butter toasted bread bowl is the best one I've had so far. The bread was fresh and the garlic butter toast on the top of the bread bowl was great for dipping in the clam chowder.
We stopped in on Friday around lunchtime and was seated right away, there was no wait. The waiter we had was very friendly and attentive to our table.
The restaurant is located on the wharf. There is a parking lot a short walk from the restaurant. This restaurant is a downstairs and upstairs with some tables offering ocean views.
I also had a flaming tiki drink. I can't remember the name of it, but it was really good.

Location is surprisingly for the elegance of the interior of the restaurant. Service very good food was fantastic. Ask to sit upstairs. California 2.0% BOH added to cost. No discount for Veterans or Disabled Veterans.

The crab tower was so yummy! It was a good balance with the mango and the mango sauce. The strawberries were so sweet too! the clam chowder was a bit overseasoned than when I had it previously. The house bread is okay. i wish they served better bread and have it be warmed up too. The seafood combo was good in terms of the quality of the seafood. But some things were under seasoned, and some over. It wasn't as balanced as it could've been. It was cooked really well though. The pasta was one of the best things! lots of seafood and the sauce went so well with everything. I didnt try the fish and chips so I can't say if it's good or not, but all of us were shocked at the portion size cause they give you a lot! The grilled artichoke was yummy, the aioli was really good, i used it to dip my bread!
