- KKathySan Francisco Bay Area •9 reviews5.0Dined on Jun 23, 2025I brought out-of-town guests to Abalonetti's. They were impressed with both the menu and the food they ordered. One guest said the lobster ravioli was the best she's ever had. I'd agree--I had it too. Service was fast and not at all intrusive. We loved the pidgeons that occasionally walked through. I'll keep bringing visitors here!More infoAbalonetti Bar and GrillPrice: Moderate• Seafood• Monterey•4.2
