    Celebrated my friends birthday with a breakfast before we all started our day. The food was yummy as usual; the experience was relaxing and filled with interesting conversations. Service was excellent as usual and Alexis was such warm energy that helped us honor our birthday guy!

    No wait and delicious entrees. The service was not timely but once the orders were in the food arrived about 20 minutes later. Very tasty fish tacos stuffed with fresh veggies and avocado, sour cream and pico on the side. The lunch special of tri-tip steak sandwich and fries was a hit with the perfect amount of peppers, onions and cheese. The kids meal was fries and grilled cheese which as received well. The breakfast menu is available all day and the choices were great!

    We ate a late breakfast on the outside balcony overlooking the putting green at Pebble Beach. It was a very nice experience and the food was delicious. Aidan was our server and gave us a lot of good recommendations on what to try. He was attentive and professional. Overall the service was excellent. The food was amazing. Two of us ordered the steak and eggs. The skirt steak was cooked perfectly and accompanied well by the potatoes. The sauces were a great finish. Highly recommend this restaurant and it's an extra bonus if you get to sit outside on a nice day.

    Our go to stop when doing 17 Mile Drive. Nice place to stop and get a great lunch. Mango Lemonade Tuna Melt with a salad instead of fries Killer Club Sandwich Kids meals are big and can probably be shared ( Not pictured my kids were hungry )

    Salmon Caesar salad

    We came here a few weeks ago for lunch on a Monday. The restaurant has the feel of a diner and the menu pretty much matches that description. We were seated right away but we sat there for at least 15 minutes before anyone came to the table and acknowledged us. The server seemed friendly enough, it seemed as if the restaurant was understaffed on this day. We ordered some drinks that came pretty quickly, but after ordering the food it took forever to come to us. I had the salmon caesar salad and it was horrible. The salmon was very overcooked and dry as a bone. Instead of croutons on the salad the were slices of burnt garlic toast around the plate. This was the first time I've ever had a bad Caesar salad. Save yourself $27 and don't order this salad here. My husband had the had classic burger which he said was good. There are nicer restaurant at pebble beach with better food and service for the same price as this place. We will not be coming here again, we can get a better return for our money elsewhere.

    On our 17 mile drive we stopped here for lunch, a beautiful patio view and nice clean restaurant and restroom. Was about 30 minutes to close, service started kind of slowly & after the food was dropped off we weren't checked on again and had to flag someone down to get our check but the kitchen was on point all of our food came out at the same time, hot and correct. It was also really good I got a hot dog with pulled pork and bacon and the wife got the killer klub. The onion rings we super crunchy and the pulled pork was smoky and complimented the hot dog well. Would eat here again.

    After a beautiful time slowly taking in 17 Mile Drive, we stopped for a light lunch at the Pebble Beach resort. The Gallery is a nice café with both indoor & outdoor seating. We opted for outdoors. The soup of the day sounded unusual: corned beef vegetable, but boy, was it yummy. We also ordered wine by the glass. They deduct your $11.75 entrance fee for the Drive from the restaurant check.

    Made a pitstop at Gallery Cafe while on a coastal California road trip. All went according to plan as we entered 17 mile drive around 9am on Friday and were seated at Gallery Cafe by 9:30am. We decided on Gallery Cafe because of its casual lodge vibe. Also, pro tip: if you are looking to do the 17 mile scenic tour and want to avoid the entry fee (~$11.50), be sure to dine in 17 mile drive and mention that upon entering. We were seated pretty immediately and ordered some breakfast egg items. Food and coffee was good - relatively standard breakfast with well-sized portions. Our server made sure to have my coffee filled to the rim at all times. Overall, I'm glad to have checked off "dining at a restaurant on 17 mile drive" but not sure I'll do it again. It was a nice one time experience.

    KILLER KLUB
    Ron R.

    This place has an excuse for not being good. We found it to be quite good and not too expensive. The outdoor deck could use better cover. It was nice overlooking the putting green and if lucky, hole one. We ordered CLASSIC CAESAR 4/5, FRIED CHICKEN SANDWICH 4,5/5, and KILLER KLUB 4.5/5. Get the buttered garlic fries 5/5. Service is attentive. Solid beer and wine choices.

    Golf course

    Great view of the pebble beach fairway. COVID Measures: The Gallery Cafe has instituted several COVID19 Measures including limiting capacity, requiring customers to wear masks, etc. Location: Located right next to the Pebble Beach Golf Course, the Gallery Cafe is located perfectly for viewing the course, especially if you have an outdoor seat. Food/Drinks: On my visit, I ordered a refreshing raspberry lemonade. It was very simple, but surprisingly satisfying. Service: The service was pretty good. Takeaway: Visit for a view of the golf course.

    Sunday, 8/16/2020 - Went and tried Gallery Cafe this beautiful and gorgeous day. Upon arrival, we were the only ones at the front desk. The place is beautiful, clean, and staff very friendly. We waited about 10 minutes for a table to be free so that they can push 2 tables together so we can all sit. The pictures hung inside the restaurant was beautiful. Pros: 1) place is clean, women's bathroom clean and well stocked. There's 2 stalls. 2) staff were all friendly and talked to all of us. 3) we were seated within 10 minutes. 4) After being seated, they brought us all a nice cold glass of ice water. Just what we all needed. 5) All of our foods were good. Salad was normal salad. Burger was good. 6) food portion size is pretty large. 7) they refilled our water cups. 8) server split our checks. Very sweet. 9) we had to get boxes to go. 10) everyone we met here, even the patrons, were extremely nice. 11) You have to pay to take the 17 mile scenic drive. But we ate here (over $30) and they deducted the entrance fee off our tab. Cons: I have no negative remarks. Conclusion: I like this place. Be prepare to share a plate or take half to go. Everyone we met here was super nice. I would go here again.

It is a popular spot even during slow season that the wait time for outdoor seating was an hour even mid-afternoon. We ended up eating at the bar which still had a beautiful view, just from a distance.

    Restaurants in tourist areas often get inflated reviews. People are on vacation, in a good mood,…read moreand not always judging the food very critically. Carmel-by-the-Sea has plenty of highly rated restaurants with fairly average food, and Pangea on Ocean Ave felt like one of them. The kimchi dumpling soup, artichoke chicken, and stuffed mushrooms were all fine, but nothing special. The service was good, the staff were attentive, and the ambiance was pleasant. What really bothered me was that every glass of water came with a plastic straw, even though we did not ask for one. In 2026, most restaurants use paper straws or provide straws only by request. Plastic is forever, breaks down into microplastics, and contributes to pollution in our water and environment. Plastic debris also harms marine life, including sea turtles. If Pangea serves even 100 customers a day, that could mean around 36,500 unnecessary plastic straws a year. Pangea on Ocean Ave should switch to paper straws and provide them only when customers ask. Average food I can forgive. Needless plastic waste is harder to overlook

We were seated right away without reservations. The place looks smaller than it is - they have a bunch of outdoor seating. It is a typical diner style establishment. And I'm not sure how accessible it is unless you know exactly where to park - there's a lot of stairs around. But it is a really cute location with lots of nice flowers and landscaping around. I can't remember our servers name - but he was really wonderful & had a great attitude. I ended up going with a custom skillet & my partner chose the biscuits & gravy and brisket chili. My custom skillet was super yummy & I was pleasantly surprised they had vegetarian sausage! It was well seasoned & the mushrooms were thinly sliced & cooked to perfection. I actually really enjoyed this meal. My partner really enjoyed his biscuits & gravy and thought it was one of the best ones he's ever had. He also was starstruck over the brisket chili, so I would definitely say to get a cup of that if that sounds like your thing. I would definitely stop back here on my next visit to Monterey/Carmel. I usually drive out to Carmel when visiting Monterey just because I like the food options more.

The vinaigrette was fantastic, the bread was soft inside and crispy outside with the perfect bread to butter ratio (we had extra butter left over). My husband got the lobster roll which was good (not the best) but the brioche roll was great and very filled. I got the King Ora salmon which had complex flavor with miso, pepper and the cabbage was fantastic. For dessert we shared the basque cheesecake which was amazing. It was more creamy and went well with the blackberry. Service could be better but was still pretty good and we would come back again to get brunch!
