Best Vegan Restaurants in Monterey

Country French setting creating a relaxed and inviting atmosphere. Wait staff was attentive and efficient. Menu choices were limited. Loved the roasted corn chowder and crab bisque. The dijon lemon chicken was tasty with the cream sauce, but would have been better using a chicken breast instead of a leg and partial thigh. That would have made it easier to eat and cut with a knife. Toasted bread was served with a delicious pesto sauce on the side. Very nice place for a gathering with friends.

Food was imaginative, of excellent quality and professionally served. Strangely, staff was inclined to remove plates before everyone had finished, and seems surprised when asked otherwise. Noise level was a bit high, hampering conversation. On balance, however, the experience was as good as it was in the past, and we will certainly return.

It has been many years since I've dined at Casanova. I was happy to learn that the years have only enhanced the charm, atmosphere and cuisine. Both our server and the sommelier were excellent. Both were engaging, kind, and offered excellent descriptions & recommendations. The seafood linguine was superb, as was the Sancerre wine that I paired with it. Our food came out in a timely manor and was piping hot when served. I honestly wish I lived in Carmel (for many reasons) but if I did I would dine at Casanova weekly.

First time to Schooners and we all enjoyed it so much! Great view, good service and excellent food. We went in for a late lunch. Enjoyed the focaccia and seafood tostada for starters. Crab pasta, crab blt and cioppino were all delicious! Will definitely return.

We went with a large group and the food and beer were great. I am picky and this place delivered. Try the lamb burger!
