    We love to stop in for a drink at the Terrace Lounge after we visit Carmel. The views of the iconic 18th hole at Pebble Beach are stunning. And you can pretty much just walk through and seat yourself at any open spot on the balcony. The service is a little hit or miss out here, but this spot is really all about the atmosphere. We enjoyed a glass of Prosecco, an old fashioned, and a cappuccino. No complaints. We relaxed and took in the beautiful view before us. This expedience gives you a little taste of luxury without the price tag (unless that's what you are going for -those more pricey options are absolutely on offer here too). I expect we'll be back next time we make our annual visit to Carmel/Monterey.

    1 dozen oysters

    We had a great waitress named Nancy who was attentive and took great care of us. We enjoyed a dozen oysters which in my opinion could have had a little better delivery. We were not told what the "sauces" were and there was not a shell bowl. The young guy Simply placed the platter of oysters down and walked away. The chocolate dessert is amazing!!! We sat inside and the views over the 18th hole are spectacular!

    Wanted to see the Lounge makeover at PB. My grandson also thought it would be a good idea to grab a Coke and some fries. We're local so we made the 5 minute trip to the Lodge Warp Speed 9. Unfortunately the service in the Lounge left a lot to be desired. First the good stuff -- spectacular Ocean views and a lovely sitting area, larger tables and seating everywhere. A lovely menu of drinks, wine, smaller bites but more than enough indulge in tasty morsels. We sat for at least 10 minutes without any recognition for any of the 4-5 servers. We finally flagged one down and asked to see a menu. It amazes me ( but shouldn't) that the attitude of the servers is "don't care" " I'd rather play with my phone" than take care of you. A 5 star resort should be on its toes 100% not like these folks. So I ordered the fries for grandson, along with a coke and a glass of wine for me. 15 minutes later the fried arrive, no drinks. We both tasted the fries and they were cold. Like they'd been sitting for an hour. Still no drinks, and no server-- so I get up walk to the bar at the other end and politely inquired, "had you maybe forgotten our drinks?" The bar tender points to the side, where the waiter is standing and says, "No they are right here"-- well they were but weren't being delivered. Then the bar tender makes a smile as laughs as he says something to the server. At which point I say, " is there something funny how this?" Bartender catches himself and says something I didn't understand. I left to go back to seating area while our drinks were being dispatched. Look, hotels are in the Service business. Just because this place is filled with Tourists doesn't mean staff can be rude, I'd have given the experience a "2" but I'm a sucker for the views.

    We came for the views but unfortunately the view was obstructed by some golf tournament structures. But if you come on a good day, I'd recommend getting some cocktails here. They're about 16-24 per drink, so pricy but reasonable. My drinks were pretty good but nothing amazing. Got a drink that was basically a Moscow mule but with pear juice. Also got a boozy hot cocoa. My bf got a berry cocktail that was good to him but strong for me

    We visited the Terrace Lounge which is located at the Lodge at Pebble Beach for a much needed break and light bites. The Terrace overlooks the Lodge's iconic 18th hole with remarkable ocean views. PRO TIP: The 17-Mile Drive admission fee will be reimbursed with a purchase of $35 or more at all Pebble Beach Resorts restaurants, excluding Pebble Beach Market. We ordered the Classic Stillwater Burger, Shrimp Rolled Tacos, and Avocado Tostada to share. To my understanding, the menu changes seasonally. There are a few items that stay all year round. My favorite is the Avocado Tostada-- it's a light and vibrant dish with a wonderful balance in texture. Our waitress was thoughtful and incredibly friendly. We got the 17-Mile Drive admission fee taken off of our final bill which was nice. Although the food was good, I think the true wow factor is the incredible ambiance and spectacular views of the ocean and golf course!

    Crab grilled cheese- so good!!
    Lori L.

    You can't beat the amazing view and ambiance. 10000% recommended to stop and get a drink and appetizers. I had some wine and we split the truffle fries which were amazing. But the best food was the grilled crab cheese, for some dumb reason on our part we didn't think it would be grilled cheese but let me tell you- best grilled cheese ever! The bread is perfectly toasted, decent amount of crab and sautéed onions with an aioli I think drizzled on top. Service was slow but of course it is so you can soak in the views and drinks/food.

    Came here after a long day touring Monterey. This lounge is located in the Lodge at Pebble beach, which is within the 17 mile drive at the south end (near Carmel). Keep in mind that you do have to pay admission to the 17 mile drive to get into this area, if you're not staying in this restricted area. We wanted a place to rest and stumbled across the lounge as we were walking out to the terrace. They have food, drinks and dessert to offer while you enjoy the view of the golf course and ocean view. We ordered the mojito, French press coffee, and fondue dessert. All were perfect and we relaxed on their comfy couches while sipping our drinks. The most memorable part of their fondue was the edible gold lined edible chocolate and the brûlée'd bananas that came with other assorted fruits and desserts to dip. This was the perfect end to our trip and made it so much more memorable!

    No masks nor social distancing despite sign requiring such

    A rare outing this past weekend led us to The Terrace Lounge at The Lodge on a beautiful sunny calm day with an expansive view of the pacific. Unfortunately our visit started off on a wrong foot when the hostess at the restaurant entrance assumed we were gawking tourists and without asking where we wanted to go informed us this was not the way to the outside ( I was confused as the balcony, where one of our party was waiting at a table already, was 20 ft from us across the dining room in full view ) and she directed us to go out, down the hall to some stair with no elevator and ... whatever. Left a bad taste for the whole lunch wondering who else was going to profile us. When have hostesses stopped asking "how can I help you?" or "are you here for lunch?" Luckily we could explain in time before we started her goose chase and ended up on the lovely balcony outdoors with sun umbrella shaded seats as well as sunny seats according to everyone's wishes. Note: in colder weather the middle of the table can be turned into a gas fire pit - a nice touch. Lunch was good. We shared a good sized fried calamari appetizer with light batter and a black squid ink sauce that raised it up a bit out of the ordinary. The Dungeness crab cake was authentic with a bit of coleslaw and a (kind of bland) green sauce (but had to ask for lemon slices - which came promptly), the fish and chips were nice with a light crispy batter, the 'chips' flavored with herbs and an okay Tatar sauce, the Dungeness crab salad is a nice size portion with fresh lettuce and veg, boiled egg and house made 1000 Island dressing on the side, the fried chicken sandwich is fresh and a nice size. We had a birthday girl amongst us and a small beautifully decorated ( including a candle ) one portion chocolate mousse cake came with forks for all for sharing - delicious ! Service was attentive though a couple times a bit slow ( coffee came late but then a whole thermos pitcher ) - no wonder as the service needs to walk the whole balcony every time to get to the kitchen ! not the most efficient ). Servers all wearing masks and gloves - other patrons not really wearing masks ( most not at all total time of sitting and often not when standing either ) - did notice on the putting green that no one was adhering to the sign posting mandatory masks and social distancing. Prices are on the high side ( were not charged for the birthday cake - a nice surprise ! ) but not so unreasonable considering the view. It's a bit of a walk (200yds?) from the visitor's parking but appears there is a way to drop people off at the door. Except for our initial greeting + non Covid-adherence, an okay experience.

    Calamari, Cheese Plate (small), Crab Grill Cheese, Yellow Fin Tuna Tartar!!! CRAB GRILL CHEESE IS AMAZING!!!!

Free parking is plentiful near the Visitor Center and the walk to the building is less than 5 minutes passing by the pro shop and putting green. This restaurant is one of 3 others in that building and overlooks the 18th green with outside patio seating and inside too. Reservations are preferred but they also take walk ins which is what I did. From the lunch menu and recommendation of the waitress, I chose the fried chicken sandwich for $31 that also came with fries. I was seated inside next to their large lecture windows and could easily see the entire 18th hole from green to tee with the ocean in the background. Outside it was a little chilly (late August) but every table there had a small fire pit in its center for warmth. In about 10 minutes my food arrived. The sandwich was large and very good tasting with a large fried fillet and cabbage slaw, aoli and excellent butter pickles. Also the fries were hot salty and tasty. It was a very good lunch. Also, because I presented my gate receipt from the 17 mile drive of $12.50 I got that amount reduced off of my bill. Table service was very professional as you would expect from this very nice facility. Visiting The Bench was a nice experience with the food and views. I highly recommend!

The 'keep it open' policy is something I appreciate but would also appreciate an itemized receipt when you close out. Here's why to keep your eye out when drinking at this establishment. 1- when you close out, it's helpful to verify what you consumed to ensure you're corrected charged. My receipt was the merchant copy and the customer copy. Itemized? Really had to ask for it. 2- the merchant copy - it asked for a tip and the total amount. When we closed out our beer and well drink, it was ~$28. Weird, right? So my thought was that they clearly charged something incorrect. 3- when there's something automatically charged, it had better be communicated to me upfront. The gratuity was automatically added and IT WAS 20%! No sign, no way to notify me that it was already added. It didn't even say so on the merchant or customer copy. On top of that, the copy asked for AN ADDITIONAL TIP. For something like that, I had better get great service. 4- The service here is spotty at best. There's usually one bartender for the often busy bar. Not a problem, usually. But with that high of a price, better serve your customers well and have a fully stocked bar. 5 - the options were lacking. Two things you'd think would be stocked but weren't - espresso (come on, even Kahlua) and apple liqueur for an espresso martini and appletini were too much to ask for, I guess. Overall, a disappointment. Good thing they have the vibes nearly right. But awful business practices.

However, the differentiator at Grasings is the bar and that differentiator's name is Kevin. If not for Kevin, we would still frequent from time to time but with Kevin we go in at least once weekly. Kevin and servers like Kevin are solid gold in Carmel and ensure 5 star ratings for atmosphere and service. When you find them you never have a bad experience in fact you are guaranteed a great experience. The menu caters to all, carnivores, seafood, steaks and vegetarians - love the veggie burger! Great place to meet locals and tourists, especially if Kevin is working. We admit that when we walk to Grasings and find that Kevin isn't working, we find another venue.

They have a great selection of wines and cocktails, and our go to entrée is the 8 ounce filet mignon with a spiny lobster tail and loaded baked potato. The steak is always prepared perfectly, the lobster is excellent, and the chef consistently delivers. The atmosphere is cozy and comfortable, making it a great spot for a nice dinner in Carmel. The service on this visit was professional and polite, although the bartender/server was a little short on warmth and personality. Nothing bad enough to spoil the evening, but a smile and a little friendly conversation never hurt anyone. Someone might also want to remind the staff that conversations about staffing problems or the performance of other servers are best saved for the back of the house. Hearing employees complain about staffing and coworkers in front of customers is uncomfortable and reflects negatively on the culture of the restaurant. This a leadership problem that needs to be addressed. Whatever you do, save room for dessert. Their chocolate brownie with chocolate syrup and vanilla ice cream is easily one of our favorite desserts in Carmel by the Sea. Rich, warm, decadent, and worth every calorie. Grasing's remains one of our regular Carmel stops, and we'll likely be back.
