Restaurants near Monterey Surf Inn

As always, beautifully prepared seasonal foods in a relaxing environment. My only complaint this time is no lactose free salads or pastas

We reserved a table for two for my birthday. This was a very upscale dinner, and they even accommodated us a table with a view due to the occasion which I really appreciated. we had the crab cake, and ahi tuna appetizer both were delicious! The crab cake was the best I’ve had definitely not your typical deep fried bready crab puck this was very flavorful and mainly crab and the ahi tuna was well dressed and had a nice texture. For our main coarse we both got a prime rib and lobster tail. Their creamed spinach side dish greatly exceeded my expectations. The lobster was melt in your mouth good, lobster tends to be tougher if not done well and this was perfectly cooked! Their Zero proof drink menu was very tasteful as well. The peach palmer was my favorite that we tried. Due to the occasion our waitress brought us a nice little birthday dessert. I was really impressed with the service, they were attentive and knowledgeable and she read us like a book anticipating our every need which was amazing. I will def be recommending this spot to family and friends. It was a perfect night.

Always a great time. Been coming here regularly anytime my family visits the peninsula. Ty so much.

Very cute and casual decor. Attentive service and good food.

First time to Schooners and we all enjoyed it so much! Great view, good service and excellent food. We went in for a late lunch. Enjoyed the focaccia and seafood tostada for starters. Crab pasta, crab blt and cioppino were all delicious! Will definitely return.
