Despite lack of employees and menu changes, patrons still appreciate the excellent food and stunning views. A standout server like Jakob can make all the difference, providing top-notch recommendations and customer service. For a reliable dining experience with a movie-themed decor and delicious platters, Bubba Gump's remains a popular choice in Cannery Row.
Upon checking in at the hostess stand, we were told that we should have been there at 4:30pm as per the text message. This was a bit confusing, but the staff was understanding and promptly seated us. The food and view were excellent, as always. However, the service was lacking. Our server seemed unfamiliar with the concept of "stop, forest, stop," and we had to flag her down multiple times for drink refills, extra sauce, and napkins. Despite the service issues, Bubba Gump's is still a must-visit restaurant.
The food is decent. The ambiance is great and the servers are friendly. The shrimp was excellent.
Place is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! '
Bubba Gump use to be our favorite place to get away and our reason for visiting Monterey -everymember of my family had a favorite dish. Its too bad your manager owner is not able to accomodate customers and decided to cut menu items (Seafood pasta choices) they thought were no longer necessary. Bubba Gump Restaurant would you please add the pasta seafood menu items back on the menu -clams, scallops, shrimp and chicken. After all we are eating right next to the Pacific Ocean. What is the logic? Shrimp is not the only choice item from the ocean!!! This was the reason we left the hot sanjoaquin valley. For the seafood pasta choices. You removed them and you removed another customer. Sorry to see it doesnt go for this many years even after being away during covid lockdown. Would you be so kind to consider bringing it back. Otherwise the food is still great but choice menu items are dwindling.
Took about and hour and a half wait but it was worth it will come back. Great view too was sitting near the window watching the sun set go down
