Vesuvio Restaurant - Carmel (CA)

5 /5 Jane Hopkins: The great neighborhood atmosphere will bring you back just like the locals. We watched the employees greet clients by their names and preferences. The family recipes are authentic and full of flavor. The prices are reasonable but the real bargains are 4-6pm. This is a must visit for Carmel.

5 /5 Dingran Wang: Let my pictures do the talking. The food was fantastic, the location was great, and the dining experience was exceptional. After a great round of golf in Monterey, it was the perfect treat to indulge in such a feast. I thoroughly enjoyed all the pizzas, ravioli, and steak. However, I found the tiramisu to be overpriced, and the beef carpaccio was quite tasteless.

5 /5 Rusty Owston: We had the best time sitting on the rooftop listening to reggae under the heaters and enjoying delicious food. Our waiter was very helpful and attentive.

5 /5 Ernest Lopez: MY wife and I were passing through Carmel and was told we had to enjoy some Roof top time at Vesuvios. Well we did and it was such an amazing experience. Rooftop just makes everything better. The house made manhattan and old fashioned that are barreled just for them were absolutely delicious to the last drop. I should have came home with a bottle of each so I could relive that experience. All the drinks were made perfectly. The service was excellent. We had roof top and inside servers since we enjoyed both setting and the service was great. If we get to come back to Carmel we are definitely stopping here again! We did enjoy some meatball lollipops and some gnocchi with a burnt to a perfection cheese on top as well. My only complaint is that we didn’t have enough stomach for food and drinks ;)

5 /5 Bruce S.: Weve eaten here several times in the past, but its been awhile. We were so glad that we came for dinner! Everything that we ate was so delicious! Started with Scattini Farms Artichoke, a grilled heirloom. The artichoke and aioli della casa sauce were one of the best that weve ever eaten. For entrees, we had the Eggplant Parmigiana with Pappardelle Alfredo and Ragu Bolognese. Dessert was the Carmel Bakery Brownie and an Expresso Martini. Our server, Jeff, was outstanding, and we really enjoyed our interactions with him. We will definitely be back! They have the only rooftop bar in Carmel, and it gets very busy. Besides Vesuvio, Chef Pepe has Little Napoli, Peppoli (Inn At Spanish Bay), Carmel Bakery. All are really very good!
