Fish Hopper - Monterey

Perfectly prepared Calamari $16, oysters on the half shell $25, small cup New England clam chowder $9. Sensitive and attentive service. The view from my place was incredible. Really loved. But my expectation when I pay such high prices is that I get at least a few crackers with my soup and don't get an extra $5 for a few small rolls. I know times are hard and in this place you pay additional fees for the location. Great if you're gone. If you have no ton of money to spend, then there are several other places near you can get food for much less. This place is ideal for a unique special place to eat. Not for those in a limited holiday budget. Wouldn't recommend bringing children, as this is a quiet meeting place for adults.

A great view sitting on the water with an array of dishes to choose from. About 80% are seafood, so beware if seafood isn?t your thing. Since half of our party loved seafood it was perfect. The clam chowder is very creamy, the portions just right. Desserts beautifully presented and scrumptious! No shortage of staff, always someone there to help.

From the outside, you would never know what a hidden gem this is. We were on Cannery Row looking for something to eat. We saw the to-go cart in front and didn't think the food or ambiance of this place would have been what it was. It was a delightful surprise. All the staff was very pleasant and hospitable. Food was great and portions were generous.

We came for our Anniversary Dinner. Being careful of crowds Bec of Covid n we are Seniors. We came 3 yrs ago with friends n remember the great food n the Ambiance. Came a little early, it was quiet, people distancing, chose a table by the window with a beautiful view. We were hungry for Seafood Pasta. My Hubby ordered Seafood Pasta Isabella .. shrimp, scallops in rich creamy Sauce. I ordered Spicy Prawn Pasta .. with wild Mushrooms, Spinach, herbs, light Tomato sauce Both dishes were delicious. I had leftovers n thankfully our room has fridge. Delightful evening. Tyler was our Waiter .. friendly n helpful

The platters we ordered was delicious and plentiful for two. But I have to give only 4/5 because the crab was not fresh and was so dry that you might think it was old and had been frozen. Cocktails were awesome and we enjoyed the atmosphere and the view out the window! Staff were super friendly.
