5 /5 Sadia Haq: Excellent food, generous portions, and beautiful views. We had a fantastic meal at Lalla Grill in Monterey.
We ordered the blackened mahi-mahi, clam chowder, fish and chips, fish tacos, crab cakes, and ahi poke. Everything was extremely fresh and very well prepared. The flavors were on point, and the portion sizes were surprisingly large—definitely great value for the quality of food.
The staff was kind, attentive, and welcoming without being overbearing. The ambience is warm and relaxed, and the ocean views really elevate the experience, making it a perfect spot for a leisurely lunch or dinner.
Overall, a wonderful dining experience with consistently good food, generous portions, and a great setting. We’d absolutely come back.
