    Last night was our first time going to dinner with our puppy and Tarpy’s has the best heated patio. The service was wonderful, our server Jaqueline was excellent. She was welcoming and friendly. We ordered the artichoke, honey sriracha ribs, and shared the 14 oz ribeye and brussel sprouts, it was more than enough for 2 people. The food was flavorful and it came out fast. I would come back the next time I’m in town.

    We loved everything we ate- 3 appetizers and our entrees- wagyu beef and the pork chop. Our cocktails were wonderful, as well as the service. After dinner we enjoyed a few minutes on the front patio relaxing around the roaring fire of one of 4 fire pits. It was a perfect dinner out!

    Great views of Monterey Bay. Easy parking - gated lot validated by check-in table, good Mexican food - we had bacon wrapped shrimp appetizer, fajitas and tacos. Too many chips and salsa. We will definitely be back.
