- KKarenCalifornia Central Coast •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoWent on christmas eve. It was expectedly crowded. Food was awesome. Great service. Its a pricey place, we paid $180 for two people. But we don’t eat out much so it was great! The waitress was very nice, attentive. Not like Il Fornaio in Carmel on Thanksgiving. That place had horrible service!! Tarpys is great!More infoTarpy's RoadhousePrice: Moderate• American• Monterey•4.6

- CChristineSan Francisco Bay Area •34 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoOur experience was great across the board. The service was impeccable. The food was great My husband and I had Alaskan halibut with an herbed risotto. The fish was cooked perfectly which can be tricky with halibut. The risotto was good, well seasoned though not quite what I expect in a risotto. My daughter had a garlic herbed roasted Jidorii chicken which was also perfectly cooked and served over buttery gnocchi. The noise level was moderate. The vibe was convivial.Check it out.More infoMontrioPrice: Expensive• Californian• Monterey•4.6
