    Small stack Victorian French toast
    Hannah D.

    Food - spectacular. Service - amazing. Orange sauce - delicious. The inside and outside are beautiful and cozy! Honestly you should stop reading this review and just go here!! :) also they offer a 3.5% discount if you use cash to pay. We will def be coming back for many years to come!

    Great food with large portions

    This is a small family run and owned restaurant. The staff is friendly, service is excellent and they are dog friendly! The food is amazing, breakfast, lunch and dinner. The owners Mary and Dom are the BEST!!

    Bacon eggs hash browns and sourdough toast
    Jennifer D.

    In my humble opinion, this is the best breakfast place in Pacific Grove! The spinach quiche is my favorite item along with the hashbrowns. The staff is so nice and helpful and you feel like you're part of the family. There is always a table or two of locals, and you can tell this is a ritual with them from the familiarity and joking with the staff. Don't miss this gem! And did you know that there is also a vacation suite above the restaurant that you can rent? Three bedroom and full kitchen! Lots of street parking, Pro tip: order the sourdough toast and bring a sweater as sometimes it can be cold when the door opens in winter, if you're seated nearby.

    We went on a Friday for lunch. We had good service. I ordered the soup and sandwich. I opted for the tuna salad sandwich without bread and the cup of split pea soup. Both were tasty, but a very small Portion for the price! With tip and tax it was over $23 and I was still hungry. My friend had a Reuben sandwich that was tasty and served with a side salad and fries. Her Reuben with a glass of wine cost $47! Easy free street parking is available.

    Our meal- Three Cheese Ravioli, Cheese Bread with a House Salad.  Delicious!
    Chet D.

    After a long day exploring 17 Mile Drive and Highway one along Big Sur we wanted a good meal. We drove into quaint downtown Pacific Grove and past the Victorian Corner Restaurant. It looked inviting, so we checked out the menu - with a good variety of choices at reasonable prices - and decided to go in. We were seated promptly and reviewed the specials, the beverage menu, and the dinner menu. I chose a local red blend wine while my wife had a Paso Robles Chardonnay. The server came back after a few minutes, and we placed our order. I ordered the three cheese ravioli with the homemade marinara sauce. We shared an order of the daily special toasted cheese bread and my wife ordered the house salad. I can say the ravioli was delicious. Likely the best I've ever had. Apparently their homemade raviolis with a blend of three cheeses. The texture was just right and often times I find marinara sauce can either be underwhelming or overpowering. It was perfectly balanced. What's the topping of fresh Parmesan and shredded basil. My wife enjoyed her salad with mixed greens, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, and croutons and on the side, blue cheese dressing. Last but not least the cheese bread had four slices thinly sliced sourdough with a perfect blend of butter and melted cheese. Truly delicious! We enjoyed the meal so much we asked to review the breakfast menu with the likelihood that we'll be back in the morning!

    Banana cinnamon pancakes
    Michele G.

    Hey there party people Aliotti's is a great place. Been going by it for years and finally stopped in. There is always a bit of a wait but it's worth it. The atmosphere is quaint and homey, like you're sitting in Mama's kitchen. Our waitress was super friendly and kept the homey feel going. We never once had to ask for a refill on our drinks which was wonderful. We got the Banana Cinnamon pancakes as a starter. These were think and a bit dry you really need the syrup and butter to moisten them up. Having said that the flavor was very good. I had the pastrami sandwich. I was really surprised how lean the meat was. It was the best pastrami sandwich I've had in a long time. Hubby had the eggplant sandwich. He really enjoyed the flavors. It was served on top of garlic bread. Hubby said the garlic bread should have been crunchier to add texture to the sandwich. But it didn't stop him from chowing the whole thing down. I'm definitely going to go back so many more wonderful things to try on the menu. Be kind to one another

    We arrive a Sunday morning around 9:00 & got a table right away & not long after, the restaurant was soon full inside. Rhonda kindly took our order & was our server. He had a SF Joes egg dish & I had the blueberry pancakes. The eggs had hamburger & fresh spinach & was served w/country potatoes & toast. The omelette was a hit as was my pancakes! Full of blueberries served w/plenty a f butter & syrup. Service was great! A enjoyable Sunday morning for us! Will return for sure!

    Mimosa
    Amanda C.

    Went here for breakfast based on local recommendations. This place has been serving breakfast for 45 years! The waitress was very attentive and on top of things. My mom had a cafe mocha which she said was outstanding. I had a peach mimosa (they had 5 different flavors) i order the Eggs Florentine. (Spinach, Jack Cheese, Hollandaise, and poached egg on English muffin) and my mom had a Denver Omelet and he said it was great but it lacked cheese) i had hash browns which were very good and my mom had a fruit bowl which had a good variety including kiwi, banana, blackberry , apple, pears, grapes etc. Highly recommend!

    We came in as a group of 7, 4 adults and 3 teens and the staff was great, put a table together for us all, and I'm so glad we chose this place over another Italian place near by. The server was super attentive and really nice. The place is adorable, I liked the old Victorian feel about it. I had the lasagna and it was so delicious, even my husband liked it and he doesn't like cheese. My kids said the fettuccine Alfredo with prawns were great. We all ordered dessert and have nothing to complain about. Would definitely come back again.

    Impressed with food, service and ambience at this fine Italian restaurant. The food was delicious, the service spot on and I feel the price was a good value for the quantity and quality. I had a dinner which included a variety of fresh sautéed vegetables, and a generous portion of eggplant with red sauce and melted mozzarella. Did I say the portion was generous, it was huge. I wanted to stop and save some for a takeout but it was saw darn good I plowed on. Gorgeous restaurant in a beautiful town. Highly recommend stopping by and stopping in.

    Both the food and the service were amazing! There were four of us and we shared three dishes family style. The waitress didn't hesitate when we asked for extra plates so we could share. We had the smoked salmon Benedict, the tostada omelette, and a daily special, the chicken fried steak. They were served with hash browns, country potatoes, or, for an $4.95 up charge, fresh fruit. I asked for extra crispy on the hash browns and for the order that was served that way, they were great, but the second order wasn't extra crispy and wasn't as amazing. We got one order with fruit and it was a great mixture of fresh fruit, definitely worth the extra $4.95 for us. Sorry, didn't get a picture of the chicken fried steak with over-easy eggs, extra crispy hash browns, and sourdough toast, but it was extra-delicious! Our waitress checked on us numerous times and refilled our coffee and hot water several times. Very warm and friendly service. A little bit of savings if you pay in cash and they give you both prices on the bill, so you can easily decide. I would definitely recommend Aliotti's Vctorian Corner! Yum!

I went with a group for a business dinner and made a reservation about a week prior. Our server was very knowledgeable and nice and incredibly attentive.

All were delicious and I really enjoyed the calamari. For entrees 3 of the group ordered the daily fish special and highly enjoyed it. I opted for the scallops and they were very delicious!

However, they do not have a large selection of local wines so that was disappointing. I was hoping there would be a page featuring "local wines". Glad we brought a wine from Odonata with us. We enjoyed all the food offerings! The biscuit is truly fantastic. I know it's just a biscuit but I really loved the buttery crust and the super soft insides that melted in your mouth. The trout appetizer was tasty... The cracker it was served on was super hard and a bit hard to chew. So... I skipped that and didn't feel I was missing anything. The crab salad was filled with chunks of crab! It was lightly dressed to let the crab shine. Our mains were quite tasty and perfectly prepared. Take note, the clam linguine is generously powered by garlic. The clams are fat and juicy.

The breading was not overly powerful or too much. They had 3 dipping sauces. I really liked the basil one, hubby thought it was too powerful. The lemon aioli was also very good but I absolutely loved the basil one. The red one was just okay to me but hubby liked that one the most.

The shrimp was huge, the scallops were plentiful and there was a lot of squid. The papardelle pasta was out of this world. Briney and creamy in the best way.
