- SSethSan Francisco Bay Area •2 reviews4.0Dined on Apr 22, 2025We enjoyed the experience. The view is amazing and general ambiance is great. Just so many small errors. The service was nice but still needs training. The menu is the right size and decently executed. We will definitely be back as the value is there. With small improvements this place could be amazing. The following are improvements or mistakes made. Please note this is not ment as a dig or to say that they detracted from the experience but were noticable. The waiter didn't know if there was a decanter. We brought a very special bottle for our Anniversary. The wine glasses that were brought didn't match. One was Ridel, crystal, and the other a very cheep white wine glass. We also had to ask for glasses to be brought. They pored the wine into the decanter but didn't bring glasses. We ordered sparkling water. Hate wat through the meal they replaced it with still We were served the main course without silverware and had to ask for it We ordered the most expensive entree, the Nrw York steak and asked for , rare rare and it came out medium well. We didn't complain and just ate it as it was still good and didn't really matter. The steak was poorly trimmed with the chain still attached. This was an $80 steak, was probably 12-14 oz. Good but nothing special. Our server was sweet and had been working there for 20 years. We really appreciated his care and loving nature, Carlos. The hostess and all staff were delightful. The Octopus was fabulous. The gnocchi were delicious, and beautifully plated. They may have say under the heat lamp to long but still delicious. Everything was clean, the shades went down at the perfect time to block the sun then back up to enjoy the view. All and all a great experience. Maybe not perfect but the price is right, the food is delicious and the view is amazing. 4 starsMore infoThe Lantern Room - Monterey Beach HotelPrice: Expensive• American• Monterey•4.2
