A little price shock. We have always enjoyed lunch and dinner at Fish Hopper. Today we decided to go to the aquarium and have lunch. Ramon was our waiter. He was fantastic.

This is our go to restaurant in monterey bay
We come here often for birthdays, anniversaries and other special meals.
The food is excellent and the staff is friendly.

Food and service was great. We will be back.

It was absolutely beautiful and the view of the ocean was spectacular

We came here for an impromptu date as we love 2 hours away. This place is a gem! What a great way to listen to music, chill on the balcony and the heat lamp was so nice in the crisp air enjoying a wonderful meal. We had:

1. Seafood Ciopinni - 5/5 wowsers!! Don't jump on me yet... with ALL the wonderful selections available, we really had a hard time choosing because we wanted to go food hopping. What a HIT!!!! SO GOOD!! And I mean SOOOOO GOOD! Definitely a must try!
2. Fried Calamari - 3/5 the flavoring and the texture of this Calamari is good; however I like my calamari's batter extra crispy and this didn't do it for me.
3. Caesar salad - 4/5 I like that although it doesn't come with anchovies, I was able to add it on. They are strong, so take small bites and it's got a good salty kick. The only thing I didn't like is that it was drenched with dressing, and I prefer lighter on the dressing and that's definitely on me for not speaking up first.
4. Clam chowder - 3/5 the first few bites were good- after that it's too indulgent. It leans more on the thick and very creamy, almost a mashed potato thickness... so it was way too filling. It's definitely more of a preference than anything, but overall flavor is good.

Shout out to our waiter Santiago!!! He was Alfred in a seafood joint. Very attentive, solution based and overall just really friendly which just added an extra layer to a lovely evening.

Amazing food, and great atmosphere! We got the clam chowder, sand dabs, and fish and chips, and it was all delicious!

The food and the ambiance were top notch. Loved the view on the sea and the service from the employees.

I'm a tourist from Southern California I came here for the Monterey Bay Aquarium but ended up walking around a local at a gift shop recommended this place the restaurant is pretty magical and that it overlooks the ocean and the staff was nice too when I asked for a table that shows the ocean.

We had a wonderful time during Happy Hour in the bar. Vince delivered exceptional service despite it being a busy time. Thank you, Vince for a wonderful experience!
