Best Family Style Restaurants in Carmel

Friendly place to have dinner. The food is good and service is attentive. The brevet steak I had was tasty and cooked to a nice medium. French fries were crispy good. The hamburger my date had was very good and was thoroughly enjoyed. Nice place with nice people.

Food was wonderful and the restaurant had such pretty views. Our server zane was so nice and attentive. Definitely recommend the salmon stuffed with other seafood.

What an epicurean adventure you will have on a Wednesday night at the Covey. Chef Goran creates the most exquisitely delicious,varied and artfully prepared food imaginable.Waitstaff are incredible. We are so lucky to have this gem in Carmel Valley.

Great food, cute location, friendly server! Also had live music- a bonus since it was unplanned-for. Since we had a group of 4, we went for the "small" island basket, which was 3 entrees and 2 appetizers on a giant woven basket / platter. Very special experience (and SO much food :-) Only downside was that we'd originally made lunch reservations but the restaurant was clearly not open when we showed up (on time for the reservation itself; half an hour after the restaurant's opening time for the day). Ended up going in for dinner instead (hence the "unplanned" part of the live music). Would highly recommend, aside from the owner's opening-up glitch.
