Reviews for Passionfish in Pacific Grove, CA
Very good restaurant with an excellent wine list and small but comprehensive menu. We were seated at a 715pm reservation... promptly (arrived early) in the farthest room from the entrance. They have a great selection of 1/2 bottles which you don’tsee often. Our waiter was excellent and attentive. We enjoyed the scallop app and Halibut entree; shrimp entree- all preparedvery well. Enjoy! Read more
Great food selection and excellent service. Ordered the King Salmon but was a little disappointed on the size of the filet. It... was less than a half inch thick (see photos). Make sure you order honey for the biscuits. Read more
Romantic vibes, high quality food. I love how transparent they are about their ingredients & do not mark up their wine prices... like majority of restaurants. Definitely recommend their biscuits, super addicting! Read more
One of the best restaurants in Monterey. Simple and refined menu with complex and flavorful dishes. The duck was rich and had a... great crispy skin and the biscuits were amazing. Overall an amazing experience and they have a large wine menu if you enjoywine. The host also had some great recommendations that the party enjoyed. Read more
It was our 5th time dining in here. Every time we had a great time here for dinner. The scallop appetizer is simply awesome.... We’d order two next time! Mahi entry was a good portion with yummy spicy sauce, pickled onions and side. We always end ourmeal with the classic lemon panna cotta. Read more
Perfect dine-in experience. All staff are vaccinated and friendly. Food is prepared dedicatedly. Mussels are very fresh. I... specially love the lamb breast which was stewed with eggplant, chickpeas and chopped olive with a glass of Cabernet, wonderful! Read more

A must go to restaurant if you're visiting the Pacific Grove/Monterey area. I highly recommend getting a reservation because... this place is popular. I'll start by saying the service and atmosphere were amazing. I never felt like I had to flag anyonedown as they were incredibly attentive. The food was ridiculous. I started with the biscuit, and that thing is so good. You candefinitely taste the buttery goodness. If it matches the recipe you can supposedly find online, it uses a lot of butter. Me andmy partner ordered the Duck Confit and the Scallops as our entrees. The duck was incredibly savory and fall off the bone. Thecrisp skin also had amazing flavor and texture, while the meat just melted in your mouth. The Scallops were so buttery, and justseared enough to add some color and flavor without detracting from the freshness of the Scallops themselves. I was alsoextremely pleased to learn that all the seafood they use is sustainable, which is wonderful. The desert was super tasty. Theyuse leftover biscuits to make the bread pudding for a delectably buttery treat. Overall I was super impressed with thisexperience and I will make it a point to come back here the next time I'm in town. Read more
