Louie Linguinis - Monterey (CA)

3 /5 G Lee: I have a variety of thoughts about Louie Linguini’s. Let’s start with the location and atmosphere. It’s situated in the perfect spot to overlook the water and cannery area. They have mostly indoor seating and a tiny bit of outdoor seating when you first walk up the stairs on the deck. It’s very shady here but it’s OK. You may wanna bring a long sleeve on a breezy day. The food is average at best. Most of the folks in my party had fish and chips and fried calamari. But we also tried the Alfredo linguine and seafood linguine. The fish and chips were not what I expected from this area. Just not super high-quality or special in any particular way. Lots of small pieces as opposed to a few large pieces. I question that. The seafood linguine on the other hand was quite good. And the calamari was basic calamari, I don’t think fresh. What is cool, is that they have a dog menu. So that’s nice since many of the visitors, including us, have dogs. Service was pretty spotty I’d say. I think it’s because you’re outside and they just don’t go out there as much.

5 /5 Erik Kolacek: I cant say enough nice things about this restaurant. The staff are helpful and kind, and very accommodating for families with special needs. The food is simply outstanding, on every level. Prices are very fair, portions are huge, ingredients are fresh, and the waitstaff are friendly and patient. I highly recommend the outdoor seating, if weather permits. The view is unmatched, and there is nothing quite as relaxing as enjoying gourmet seafood with waves, sea lions, and fog horns for background sound. 5 out of 5 stars. We will absolutely be back!

5 /5 Kensley Gray: This restruant was great, definitely needs a higher rating overall! For starters the views are great at the window! Beautiful ocean. The restruant is also looks great! The food though was very good! The Louie sampler was a good appetizer choice because everything on it was delicious (my favorite on it was the fried motterezlla.) My shrimp aurora was great aswell! Our server was very kind and was just great overall! Next time Im near this area I will definitely come back.

4 /5 Michael McComb: Old school charm, good food and great views. A family friendly spot overlooking the bay and a beach below. Big menu and many daily specials should satisfy picky eaters. Outdoor seating give great views. Many pasta, pizza and fish options. Had the rock cod fish tacos which were ample and fresh. Large portions. The CA beer sampler is a fun choice.

5 /5 Ravi Ozarker: Amazing fresh sea food. I had cod fish and rice with vegetables. My colleague had clam chowder and some plate with fresh crab. Service was also amazing. We sat outside in the balcony and watched the breathtaking view. Will be back again for sure.
