Reviews for Corkscrew Cafe in Carmel Valley, CA

What an amazing venue for our rehearsal dinner! It was the perfect intimate space for an incredible meal with our family and... friends, and so much of that was due to Eder. We can’t thank Eder and the staff enough for making the evening come togetherperfectly. Eder was so thoughtful throughout this process. He worked within our budget to create a menu that our guests loved.He called us the week before, as well as the day before to confirm all the details. He even made sure to just ask how we weredoing with our wedding coming up, which showed us how much he cared to make our evening and weekend special. At the dinner, thewaiters were extremely attentive as well, making sure everyone had enough wine and food throughout the meal. The space wasperfect, between the lighting and the place settings. We would definitely recommend this space for anyone getting married inCarmel Valley - it was very special! Thank you, Eder! Read more

The Corkscrew is one of the places you have to go to when you visit Carmel. The pizzas are pretty unique, especially the Meyer... Lemon one which is my personal favorite. Plus, their salads are incredible. I have tried almost everything on the menu, andtheir pear arugula salad with the meyer lemon pizza are my favorites. The goat cheese platter is also extremely delicious, alongwith all of their pizzas, and their burrata and grapefruit/beet salad. Highly recommend, and the vibe is very nice and outdoorsyas well. Plus, it is a good place for dogs! Read more

Ordered the lemon zest pizza. All the pizzas are 8 slices each, 1 pizza is perfect for 3-4 people. The pizza was tasty and the... ingredients were fresh. We just stopped in for a quick bite. It was delicious and I would repeat. Read more

Amazing place and food. Plus go taste at Georis and bring a bottle for your meal and they don't charge any corkage fees

Super friendly service. Pizza was delicious. No wait. They have cowgirl vineyards wine. Smash burger was absolutely wonderful,... highly recommend. Read more

A great place to re-energize after some wine tasting. The smell of the pizza as you walk in is welcoming. They have indoor... seating as well as a huge outdoor section. We chose to sit outside and got seated next to a beautiful sculpture with fish in thebottom. The sound of water falling was very peaceful and the friendly fish kept us entertained. Service was quick, but nothingspecial. We got a pepperoni pizza and it was delicious! The crust was perfectly burnt on the edges, crispy, and very tasty!Good portion of pepperoni and lots of delicious cheese. Wine selection includes some of the wineries that have tasting roomsnear by. Will definitely come back the next time we are in the area! There is a parking lot in the front and it is also withinwalking distance of many wineries nearby. Read more

Delicious fresh prepared food with quality ingredients. The mushroom pizza was yummy beyond expectations. Excellent prompt... service to boot. All of this in a quaint courtyard garden setting. Very romantic! It's sure to impress. A+ experience. Read more

Lovely, simple Californian cuisine. Service is warm and welcoming—they seated us at 8 even though the cafe closed at 8:30, and... we didn’t feel rushed in the least bit even though we closed the place. All the food was flavored well with simple seasoningthat let the fresh ingredients shine. The combination of corn and shishito pepper was unexpected but provided a bright contrastfor what was a hearty, satisfying pizza. The dessert sounded good in theory but was too strong in rose flavor. Would love to goback for a meal when back in the area. Read more
