Monterey & Carmel Food Guide 🍴🌊

A weekend getaway isn't complete without great eats! Here's my curated list: 📍Phil’s Fish Market & Eatery ✅ Must-Order:Cioppino in a Bowl - Overflowing with seafood in rich broth. Fryer Combos - Crispy yet light batter (shrimp/clams/calamari). Skip: Dungeness Crab (average) Vibe: Lively dockside spot—worth a detour! 📷Monterey’s Fish House . Star Dish: Fried Calamari (perfectly chewy) Meh: Sicilian Pasta (sauce inconsistency) | Oysters (skimpy)📌 Tip: Only if craving squid—otherwise pass 📷Old Fisherman’s Grotto Splurge-Worthy: Seafood Tower 🦐 (salmon/scallops shine) Note: Steak is mediocre for the price Best For: Fancy seafood feasts with wharf views 📍Carmel Bakery 😋 Sweet Wins:Lobster Tail - Flaky, buttery pastry. Raspberry Roll - Tart-sweet balance⚠️ Sugar Alert: Brownie (shareable) | Almond Horseshoe (intense!) Perfect With: Afternoon strolls 📍Dametra Cafe 🍽️ Greek Fare: Average... but 💃🏻 live dancing/singing breaks out! Go For: The chaotic fun (not quiet dates) 📍Jeju Kitchen 🍝 Korean Hits:Beef Short Rib - Fall-off-the-bone tender. Spicy Pork Soup - Warming kick Note: Jajangmyeon (a tad salty). Gem: Rare authentic K-food in Carmel #MontereyCA #CarmelByTheSea #DayTripEats
