Bay Area Eats｜Monterey Oceanview Dining｜Fish Hopper

🥳After visiting the Monterey Bay Aquarium, we stumbled upon this fantastic seafood restaurant within walking distance. 📍 Location The Fish Hopper, 700 Cannery Row Suite K, Monterey, CA 93940 😋 Must-Orders 💎 Seafood Platter. A showstopper—2-3 times larger than a regular plate! Packed with lobster 🦞, crab , scallops, jumbo shrimp, salmon, garlic rice, and veggies, it’s a seafood lover’s dream. ⭐️ Cocktail Shrimp 🦐 Chilled, plump, and ultra-fresh—best enjoyed plain to appreciate its natural sweetness. 🌈 Oysters Finally, decent oysters in the Bay Area! These were crisp with a hint of sweetness (no metallic aftertaste). Pro tip: A squeeze of lemon elevates their silky texture. ⭐️ Pasta. Skip it—too heavy and underwhelming compared to Italian spots. 🍹 Drinks ✅ Piña Colada. A flawless tropical blend with toasted coconut flakes—light and refreshing (perfect for low-alcohol preferences). We emptied two glasses! ✅ Volcano. All style, no substance. The flaming presentation wowed us, but the harsh mix of liquors wasn’t enjoyable beyond the ‘gram. #BayAreaFoodie #Oysters #OceanviewDining
