Restaurants near Tor House

Got away for Thanksgiving. While they offered a traditional Thanksgiving meal, we ordered lamb kebobs off the menu. If you're not starving, it's enough for two people. They were delicious!! Came with Greek salad and rice; onions and tomatoes on 2 skewers along with 3 very large pieces of lamb on each skewer. SO MUCH FUN with Greek music (people got up, clapped, danced a bit). Next time, we're sharing an appetizer and sharing a main. Complimentary "bite" of baklava after dinner. It is VERY noisy when the music is played (stringed instruments, drums, voices), but moderate noise otherwise. Very lively!!

One of our ATF restaurants and bars in Carmel that we frequent often. The special fixed menu dinners they have for holidays are superb. We were back this week for the Thanksgiving dinner and it did not disappoint! Love to sit at the bar and chat with Jun, one of the best mixologists and personable bartenders in Carmel. This is a long standing Carmel restaurant that is at its absolute best these days. A must visit for a drink, lunch, dinner or the bar food menu.

A wonderful restaurant with delicious food and great service. Thoroughly enjoyed.

The hostess was abrupt and not very friendly but everything else was perfect. Our waitress was fun, offered great selections, and provided excellent service. The atmosphere is wonderful. It has a real, subtle Italian feel in an old home. The food is amazing. I had the cannelloni. It was perfect size and perfectly cooked. The bread with the tapenade is a must. My friends’ meals were excellent too. Love this place.

Porta Bella was a fabulous dining experience! Cozy atmosphere, attentive staff provided excellent service, and amazing food. Highly recommend this restaurant in the heart of beautiful Carmel!
