Quick two night stay from Friday-Sunday. Didn't really use any amenities so can't comment on that…read more The hotel is great if you're driving to nearby Carmel or Big Sur. Check-in was easy and prompt. It was quite busy for a Friday check-in but there were 5-6 workers checking people in so it went pretty fast. They were providing water bottles to those who were waiting, and also let people know that there were s'more kits to use at the outside fireplace facing the golf course. You may have to drive to where your room is as there are various buildings in the hotel, so perhaps wait to get your luggage out of your car until after check-in. There looked to be quite a few kids at the property as well as they had some ping pong tables and life size chess available near the main building. The room itself was really spacious and clean. Nothing was really wrong in the room. Perhaps the AC wasn't the best (maybe we were using it wrong), but there is a fan right above the bed which was VERY cool/strong once turned on. WiFi was a bit spotty throughout the stay. TV in the room had Google cast which was nice.

I went with corn tortillas, and avocado slices on top. It was filling and was the perfect start to the day in Monterey. Ambiance: Diner vibes in full effect. Hole in the wall type of spot with friendly and lovely staff. About a 30min wait so you can walk around and explore, while you wait. Parking: You can park on the pier or park down the street for an easy walk to the diner.

By the time we were seated, though, the restaurant started filling up quickly, so we were glad we got there when we did. We ordered the egg white Denver omelette, the Denver scramble, and a waffle to share. Our food came out quickly, piping hot, and everything was so delicious. The hash browns were perfectly crispy, the toast was generously buttered, and my husband's scramble was a huge portion. I also loved that they offer healthier options on the menu without sacrificing flavor. The waffle was light and fluffy, and the orange juice tasted like it was freshly squeezed. The service was excellent, my coffee cup was never empty, which I always appreciate. If you're looking for a delicious breakfast in Monterey with generous portions, great service, and plenty of menu options, Old Monterey Cafe is definitely worth a visit!

I finally was able to make a trip to Monterey/Pacific Grove, sadly it's been years. That being said…read morewe chose Rosine's because it was always a favorite of ours. Our order consisted of a steak salad/fries and a calamari steak sandwich. I can't comment on my daughter's food because she ate all of it with no complaints. Mine was ok, wasn't bad nor great but I was excited (I'm a fatty) about the slice of key lime pie I took home. Unfortunately I was really disappointed. No key lime "zing" to the filling and the whipped cream only had a small hint of sweetness. The sliced almonds were really unpleasant, they had the old rancid taste/smell. Overall I wasn't thrilled with the food nor the price. Service was below average, I say that because it was not busy at all yet we had to get the servers attention more than once, meaning she didn't check on us. On a positive note I was able to spend the day with my beautiful daughter.

Their homemade cakes are to die for with a gnarly range of choices. Enjoy! This day I was in the mood for comfort food, so I ordered Family Burger Medium with French Fries & No Cheese on the burger. But first I had to have their famous Minestrone Bowl, not cup, but the bowl. LOL! My cousin had a cup & said "That was the best minestrone soup I've ever had." I replied "They have perfected this recipe for decades upon decades. It's their famous soup." Thank you Jose R for your rad customer service & greatly appreciate you. The ambiance still remains fresh & clean, kind of reminds me of a restaurant that would be in Disneyland or Disney World.

The crepe itself was filled with fruit and very delicious. So glad I stopped by for this snack.

Very cute and would love to come back again when we are visiting to try something different. If you come and there is a long wait, there is a reason for it.

My wife had a burger special that included meaty braised short ribs with all the fixings. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was relaxing.

My husband wasn't a fan of the grilled chicken, but everyone else's meals were delicious. The potatoes were perfectly cooked, the eggs were great, and the thick-cut toast was fresh and so tasty.

I couldn't get enough of them. The prices were also very reasonable, especially for being so close to the beach. Great food, great location, and a place we'll continue coming back to.
