Between that and the hearty portions and prompt service, Dametra Cafe sits nicely between an upscale restaurant and quick-service places.Dametra's Cafe features primarily Greek cuisine, with some Italian and Spanish thrown in for good measure. Appetizers include hummus with pita bread, fried calamari, grilled jumbo prawns and steamed mussels in a white wine and garlic sauce. The meals are split between sandwiches, pasta and entrée offerings and features dishes such as shrimp and crab ravioli, a salmon burger with red onion and tomatoes, lamb shish kebab and a Greek style lamb shank with rice pilaf and fresh vegetables.

    Beautiful setting and delicious dinner. The beet salad and rack of lamb were excellent. They make you feel welcome and special. It’s also a lovely spot for lunch outside by the fountain.

    What a great experience with my daughter-in-law and two teenage granddaughters. I didn’t realize that this had been owned by Doris Day and the ambience , food and service were impeccable. We sat outside on a chilly summer night, but the heaters and the blankets provided for us by the staff made everything perfect. the dog friendly patio with the adorable dogs was an added bonus. We will definitely go back here when visiting Carmel.

    Toro sushi is fresh, delicious and served beautifully. The cooked food is delicious as well. I had a teriyaki salmon bowl that came with rice and a salad. My table also had tempura, gyoza and miso soup and all of it was prepared well and was very tasty.
