Monterey｜Award-Winning Waterfront Dining with Stunning Views 🏆

✅This was my second visit to Old Fishermen’s Grotto, nestled in the heart of Fisherman’s Wharf. The window seats offer breathtaking views of playful sea lions 🦭 lounging on the rocks and splashing in the bay. ✅The ambiance is elegant yet welcoming, and service is impeccable. Even on a busy weekend when other restaurants had empty tables, this place had a 20-minute wait—proof of its enduring popularity! 📷Must-Try Dishes: 🌴 Crab Meat Tower Fresh, sweet crab layered with mango, papaya, and creamy avocado, finished with a hint of spicy-sweet sauce. A perfect balance of flavors and textures. 🌀 Clam Chowder (Award-winning for 20 years!) Rich but not heavy, served in a bread bowl or with garlic-buttered toast. The takeout window lets you enjoy it seaside! 🍝 Grilled Oysters: Buttery with a bright lemon twist—a delicious alternative to raw oysters. 😋 Ultimate Seafood Pasta. Packed with lobster , plump shrimp 🍤, tender salmon, and clams in a creamy (but not overwhelming) sauce. Ideal for sharing! ✨ Old Fishermen’s Grotto. 📍 39 Fishermans Wharf, Monterey, CA 93940 #MontereyCA #MontereyBay #CaliforniaLiving #SeafoodLovers
