Loved this restaurant! We were visiting for Monterey Car Week, and our hostess, Diane, was absolutely wonderful. She was so gracious and kind, and even though we had to wait a little to be seated, she kept us informed and made sure we were comfortable the entire time. Thank you Diane! The restaurant itself is beautiful with absolutely breathtaking views. The food was amazing - we had the seafood Bolognese and oysters, and everything was fresh and delicious. I usually don't love seafood with pasta, but this dish was a 10/10! The ambiance was fantastic and we had such a great time! I'll definitely be back next year for Car Week, and I'm already looking forward to staying at the lodge and dining at this wonderful restaurant! read more

I enjoyed a beautiful lunch on Stillwater's terrace overlooking the ocean and golf course at Pebble Beach today. 80 degrees and crystal clear, this location for a lunch or dinner is pretty spectacular. My wife and I split entrees, skirt steak with fries and the house cheese burger and fries. Both were cooked to the temperature that we requested. The burger had great flavor (other than my preference for mayonnaise, and not the sweet spread and B&B pickles). My fault, I should have requested to eliminate those. Both the steak and the burger had a great chargrill flavor. Huey was our waiter. He was friendly, but a little elusive. The only real negative was the new metal dining table we were eating on was well over 100 degrees, as we were sitting in the direct sunlight. Huey confirmed these were new tables purchased during the recent renovation of PB Lodge. Not only could we not touch the table without getting burned, it heated up our utensils so hot, they were too hot to handle. This is a significant issue for Stillwater. I suspect these will all be replaced sometime this year, or Stillwater will start using tablecloths. Come check out the newly remodeled Stillwater and try their burger, sans sauce and pickles. read more

Stillwater at Pebble Beach has a great view. The Ricotta Pull Away Bread was warm, soft, and delicious with the whipped honey butter. The Buttermilk Fried Chicken Sandwich was crispy with pickles, coleslaw, and hot honey aioli. Old Fashioned had 2 cherries, but ice cubes were small. read more

Hubs and I went on a golfing trip to Pebble Beach with friends. Our first meal at the Pebble Beach Lodge was at Stillwater, a classy restaurant overlooking the 18th hole of the Pebble Beach course. We started with Charred Amberjack Tartare; I love Amberjack sushi so I was very excited to try this! It didn't live up to my expectations, was bland, although the bed of rice it was served on was crispy. Our 2nd appetizer was the Ricotta Pull Apart bread. This was better, it was hot and soft. My entree was Roasted Pepper Mafalda (pasta with various vegetables). By this part of our vacation, I was craving vegetables so I really enjoyed this dish. This was the best dish of our meal. Hubs ordered the Maple Leaf Farms duck breast, which he did enjoy a lot. It was tender and flavorful. For dessert, we ordered the smoked s'mores to share. It was unique, but too smoky for me. I could taste the smoke. I'd rather it be smoked only enough to smell it but not too much to taste it. Overall, I enjoyed the ambiance of this restaurant, especially watching the golfers trying to finish their round in the dark (at 9pm). I leaned more into the ambiance for this rating. read more

The code was absolutely amazing, and I lied to desserts. But to be honest I wasn't wowed by the main menu. The food was good but nothing really exciting by way of flavor execution or creamy with the dishes that I would expect from an upscale restaurant like this. We also found the service to be really slow. We only saw our waiter to order, and get our check. It took a while to get our food, and our water glasses were not filled very often (maybe twice in the two hours we sat outside). You definitely pay for the view, but it is truly amazing. The restaurant overlooks the last hole on the golf course with the expansive bay behind it. Overall the food isn't very exciting and I probably wouldn't be rushing back here for anything except the view and atmosphere. read more

Jeff at the bar offered excellent service. Great alternative to the bench downstairs. Classy place.

The Lodge at Pebble Beach Visited after their November 2025 reopening following a remodel. What should have been a flagship dining experience was a complete failure. Food: We ordered the wild cod and American Wagyu zabuton steak. * The cod was inedible--undercooked, mushy, and emitted an overwhelmingly fishy odor that strongly suggested improper handling. To make matters worse, the kitchen failed to include the sauce; we had to ask for it. * The zabuton steak, ordered medium rare, arrived blue rare and nearly raw. This is not a difference of opinion--it was a basic execution failure. * We calmly raised these issues with management. No corrective action was taken. No replacement, no apology of substance. (Photos attached.) Service: Service was equally unacceptable. * Our server was disengaged and unable to provide even basic menu guidance, raising serious concerns about staff training. * We had to repeatedly prompt for essentials--water refills, status updates, and follow-ups. * Timeline matters: seated at 6:10 PM, ordered at 6:20 PM, food arrived at 6:50 PM. A 30-minute wait for poorly executed food is indefensible at a property of this caliber. Atmosphere: The remodel does little to save the experience. The bar is visually pleasant; everything else is forgettable. 5.5/10. Final Verdict: Would I return? Absolutely not. Pebble Beach trades on a reputation of excellence. This restaurant is currently riding that name without delivering anything close to it. Until the kitchen leadership and service standards are seriously corrected, this is not worth your time or money. read more

We celebrated my wife Amy's birthday at Stillwater last night, and it was an unforgettable evening from start to finish. Everything was exceptionally well prepared, beautifully organized, and the service was outstanding. Our server, Tessie, went above and beyond to make sure Amy's birthday felt truly special. She was warm, attentive, knowledgeable, and anticipated every detail without ever being intrusive. Her genuine hospitality made the entire experience memorable. We both had the cod, which was perfectly cooked and absolutely delicious. To top it off, the salted caramel espresso martini was one of the best we've ever had--a perfect ending to an incredible meal. Thank you, Tessie, and the entire Stillwater team, for making Amy's birthday celebration so memorable. We can't wait to return and highly recommend Stillwater to anyone looking for exceptional food, outstanding service, and a truly special dining experience. read more

I came here with family for dinner during thanksgiving week. The ambiance of the restaurant was nice, clean, good views of the ocean (during daytime hours). The service was friendly and seemed knowledgeable of the menu. I ordered the abalone risotto- it was very good! For the price point, however, I thought everything could have been slightly more enhanced- more formalized service, more nuanced / interesting food, and stimulating ambience. That being said, for a hotel / golf course restaurant it did a great job balancing formal enough while still seeming casual and fun. I don't think it will win any awards but it's a good option when in Pebble Beach. My recommendation would be to just do appetizers and cocktails at the terrace bar (that would be a 5/5) and explore Carmel or Monterrey for restaurant options if you want something heavier. read more

Worst service ever. First of all. The people at the gates weren't letting us in to valet our car. The lady was very rude and told us to pull over in some parking lot. Damn near yelling at us. We tried explaining to her that we don't have service to check our reservation. So after we call the place that we have a reservation with, the lady says hold on let me check for you. Then proceeds to hang up the phone. Do not recommend going here. They are rude read more

Bartender was too busy to give me much attention. maybe they need a third bartender at night? Macaroni & cheese appetizer was perfectly cooked but bland. However, Erin was my server for dinner, and she was EXCELLENT, and the Jidori chicken breast au jus was delicious, could not have been better, moist and flavorful. It would be great if they also added this chicken dish to the lunch menu! Chef definitely made a winner with this entree! Booth is nicely sized, and it was easy to talk during our meal because we got there when the restaurant opened at 5:30 p.m. The views of the golf course and ocean/cove are stellar during the day! p.s. Had breakfast here the other day as well. An omelette and huevos rancheros. Both were excellent, perfectly cooked and very very tasty! And service was excellent then as well read more

Service was perfunctory and bordering on incompetent. I ordered a nice bottle of Burgundy. The server brought some standard wine glasses. I asked if she might have some Burgundy/pinot noir glasses. She responded, "Oh, you would like Burgundy glasses for your Burgundy wine?"!! Was she kidding? Why didn't she bring them in the first place. Had the steak. Asked for it to be lightly charred rare. It was not. Lot of money to pay and receive something cooked 'not' to order. No char, no texture. Oysters were just passable. Not briny as we had expected and they promised. Duck was very good. Needless to say, view was astonishing from a window booth looking at the 18th hole. read more

Randomly ended up here while driving along the 17 mile drive after we started to get the munchies. So happy that we did. The view overlooking the golf course with the mountains and ocean is absolutely stunning. Postcard worthy. We just grabbed some nibbles but underestimated how much we'd love them. Do yourself the honor of ordering the tuna tartar and the calamari. Send me a note about how blessed you are to have had me provide you that recommendation. read more

Great views and service at the iconic Pebble Beach 18th hole. We started with the sweet corn crab chowder. We ordered a bowl to share and they split it into two portions. Nice! The soup was sweet and then had a back kick of spice. It could have a bit more crab in it, but it was tasty. We also split a hamburger, and again they split it into two plates. The burger was really good! We ordered plain fries as my husband doesn't like garlic. All in all a nice lunch. read more

We had an absolutely wonderful dining experience today, made truly exceptional by Lloyd. He treated my parents--both in their 80s--with remarkable kindness, patience, and genuine care. Every detail of our meal was thoughtfully arranged with professionalism and warmth, making us feel completely at ease and well taken care of. Thanks to him, our entire family enjoyed what has been, without a doubt, our most perfect dining experience of the year so far. His level of professionalism and sincere hospitality truly lives up to the beauty and reputation of Pebble Beach. I was so impressed that I have already decided to celebrate our wedding anniversary dinner here later this year. I sincerely hope more people will have the chance to experience the same joy and care that we felt today. read more

A Special Day, a special girl, and a special lunch...oh yea. M came out for a visit and I had a few adventures planned. The 17 mile drive was on her list so I added a Monterey windshield tour. I had made reservations a month a head to be safe, it was a good idea. Once we got parked it was a bit of a challenge as the restaurant is in the hotel...ah...okay then. We were seated immediately in a nice booth against the window looking at the 18th hole, that works. Presented with the tried, perfected, and very distinguished entrees and morsels worthy of tasting. Ordering was difficult because it all looked so interesting and you know it would be really good too. To cut to the chase we ordered, M had Clam chowder, and the snapper fish and I started with abalone and a lobster sandwich. Everything was very good as one would expect at this level. The service impeccable and surroundings just extraordinary. Do yourself a favor and take your next best on an adventure up there. big points mate, wink wink... foodguy-martin read more

The restaurant is located inside the luxurious Lodge at Pebble Beach and has gorgeous views of the golf course and ocean. There are large windows overlooking the golf course. There's also memorabilia and trophies from the US Open golf tournaments outside the restaurant for golf enthusiasts to look at. Service is not the most attentive but friendly. We've tried the halibut with farro and fish and chips. Portion sizes are decent with good flavor. However, there were lots of fish bones in my halibut. We went for my birthday and they surprised us with a free dessert to celebrate. We've been a couple times and would go back. read more

Stillwater is a recently renovated restaurant inside the Lodge at Pebble Beach. We heard good things from our friends, so we decided to bring my in-laws who were visiting us, for dinner. We first chose to sit at the visually appealing bar that overlooks the breathtaking view of the 18th hole. Our bartender, Jeff, was knowledgeable, professional, and pleasant. We really enjoyed talking with him and he made us some of their wonderful signature drinks! My favorite was the Double Oak Old Fashioned. As we were seated for dinner, our server, Erin, greeted us and helped make our dining experience one of the best. We started with the Brie and Mushroom Toast as well as the Abalone. Simply amazing! My mother-in-law had the Burrata Salad with Prosciutto. She said this was one of the most delicious salads she'd ever eaten! We ordered several different entrees so we could share. I had the Blue Cheese Crusted Filet, my husband had the Mafalda Pasta with Scallops, and my in-laws shared the Tomahawk Steak. Each entree was cooked to perfection and tasted out of this world. We didn't think we had room for dessert but decided to order the decadent chocolate cake, which I highly recommend! Our overall experience at Stillwater was five stars from beginning to end. We look forward to returning to this first class restaurant soon! read more

GORGEOUS views. This is RIGHT on the 18th hole. Umbrellas if you need cover and also indoor areas to sit! We ordered a quick snack - truffle fries, crab, and the shrimp taquitos. You MUST get the crab. So good. Truffle fries were oily but still yummy. Fast service and good vibes! read more

Restaurant is beautiful. Food is good. Service is better at hole-in-the-wall Chinese restaurants... food came without any utensils. Our server changed 3 times. I asked all 3 for condiments that never came. Wine came 15 minutes after the meal came. Was double charged for items. I'm honestly not sure how the service could be worse. But again, I suppose you come for the view, which is spectacular. 1 star otherwise. read more

It's extremely expensive and the food was mediocre, at best. The shrimp in the omelette were off-tasting. The abalone on the Benedict was 2 quarter-sized pieces for almost $40. It's a beautiful setting and the staff was extraordinary. I just won't go back to eat there, although I've been there many times before. read more

This was a stellar experience 10/10. The view alone was worth the drive. 17 mile drive was amazing, and if you let the people at the gate know they will not charge you admittance. The oysters were 8/10, I have had better in SF. The clam chowder was a small cup with grilled garlic bread on the side, heaping with bacon bits. Pretty good, but definitely pricey. The swordfish sandwich was a 7/10. Nice piece of fish that was cooked well, but the flavor was lacking. The only thing with flavor/salt in the sandwich was a huge slab of pork belly. The chocolate cake was the star - 10/10!!!! Come here for the view and experience, not for the food. read more

A very fancy place with great views in Pebble beach. The menu is very seafood focused, but does have some steak items. We had a round table in the corner with incredible views. Our server was a doll and got us anything we wanted. It had been a few days of eating, so no appetizer for me, but everyone else got one, the one that looked the best to me was the soft shell crabs. I ordered the scallops (with normally comes on risotto), but I asked if I could get the scallops atop the pasta that comes under the swordfish (with sun dried tomatoes and pesto) - It was fantastic. Sadly we were too full for dessert, but I did have a after dinner drink of a chai tea with some rum and a little stick cookie (that I originally though was a cinnamon stick). Whoa! - I wish I knew the recipe. There are a few abalone items on the menu - which you just don't see much of on menus, so if that is your jam, hit this place up. read more

IMHO This day's visit was to introduce my friend to gorgeous and world-renowned Pebble Beach! We told the gatekeeper at the northern entrance to 17-Mile Drive that we had a reservation at Stillwater, and he waved us through. No need to pay the entry fee! (If you do pay the fee, it will be credited to your dining bill at any of the Lodge restaurants! Just show your receipt!) We cautiously asked about seating on the outside patio since the weather had been very chilly of late. Happily, we felt comfortable enough to even remove our coats! Hieu was our amiable and efficient server! We began with the Ahi Crisps, $19, "trio of crispy wontons, avocado, pickled onions, sweet soy, wakame, jalapeno" to start. We opted to add one more crisp for an additional $6... Beautifully presented and delicious! My friend ordered the appetizer serving of "Live Monterey Bay Red Abalone", $29, 'wild mushroom and forbidden rice pilaf, daikon sprouts, unagi sauce, crunchy garlic oil." We asked Hieu about the difference between the appetizer portion and the main entree portion. The appetizer portion is 2 oz. of abalone versus the main entree version 4 oz. portion. When it arrived at the table, I was surprised at how small it looked on the plate. My friend said it was delicious, but I don't think it was enough to satisfy her appetite. I offered her half of my Buttermilk Fried Chicken Sandwich, $24, "fried jidori chicken breast, coleslaw, pickles, hot honey aioli, on a brioche bun." I like my fried chicken crunchy crispy, and I was concerned that it would be soggy like their fish and chips, which I've ordered in the past. Hieu told me that he could make my fried chicken to my liking! He was right! The chicken was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside!!! We ended our meal with some delicious French-pressed Kona coffee, $19 for a carafe for two. Oh, soooo yummy!!! Food is pricey, views are spectacular, and the service is perfection! read more

Usually when you got to restaurants at touristy areas, the food is underwhelming and overpriced. But Stillwater is an exception. My girlfriend and I were visiting friends in Monterey. We wanted weekend brunch and, luckily, managed to snag a same-day reservation. Beautiful drive to get there, of course. Parking was easy. We got a beautiful window table overlooking the 18th. Staff was friendly and on point. The food was phenomenal. As mentioned, touristy restaurants are usually substandard. I got the Stillwater Eggs Benedict with crab cakes, which was absolutely delicious. My girlfriend got the Kobe Short Rib Hash, which was unexpectedly tender and scrumptious. I highly recommend these two dishes. If you ever plan a Monterey / Pebble Beach getaway, I highly recommend Stillwater. But definitely make a reservation in advance! read more

I was told how great the fish and chips are via reviews here and my best friend. Either I came on an off day or I've matured my palette. I wish I ordered a proper entree because I wasn't impressed with the fried foods here. However, the ambiance, service, and location x3 gives this place an extra star or two or three if you're an avid golfer like me. Pro Tips * Make reservations and sit at the patio on a sunny day because it's one of the best views on earth for golfer afficianados * Get a kids meal (10 and under) for each one of your kids even if they don't want it because they are essentially the same adult food just a little less portion, and a lot less on the wallet * If you're coming from the Bay Area on a weekend, pad extra time (up to 1 hour extra) for the drive to Pebble Beach as 101 and 17 gets congested southbound Food Summary + Steak Frites and Salad hit all cylinders (5/5) + Crispy calamari was not crispy today but Asian inspired sauce that looks like black squid ink is nice (4/5) - Skirt steak for kids comes with any choice of side was decent but still $22 (4/5) - Club sandwich for kids is adult size for the kids price but nothing special in taste (3/5) - Fish and chips looked good on paper but the fish wasn't crispy and the fries a bit salty (3/5) There you have it folks. I certainly ordered wrongly on this trip. The fried foods lacked the fresh crispness I was expecting. I didn't order a seafood entree which this place is likely known for. Fortunately, this place has so much heritage and history that even average food taste above average just by the osmosis of its surroundings. read more

Beautiful view of pebble beach golf course, great food & friendly service. We LOVED their seafood chilled platter, so good! We also enjoyed the sweet corn crab buttermilk soup & open-faced lobster salad sandwich. The kids meal pasta was a generous size & we LOVED the Swiss chocolate fondue with fruit & marshmallows. They also gave us a free chocolate cake dessert for our anniversary. We liked this place much better than Roy's in pebble beach. I highly recommend making reservations & asking for a table by the window. When you enter the gate into pebble beach, tell them you have a reservation to Still Water & they won't charge you an entrance fee. read more
