Best Organic Food Restaurants in Carmel Valley

It’s been years since I’ve been back to Oneal’s because the last time we went we were so unimpressed we forgot about it…that changed last nite! Boy are we glad we rolled the dice! For starters we had the Dungeness crab cakes. Mind you we are east coast crab cake snobs (nothing beats a Maryland Blue crab jumbo lump crab cake with no filler!)…but last night their is now an official 2nd best crab cake and it can be had at O’Neal’s!!! No filler and a wonderful panko crust with a perfect sauce and watercress greens accompaniment. We will be back just for that alone! But wait there is more!!! My wife had the short rib and loved it and I had the best scallops!!! 3 huge jumbo scallops cooked perfectly over a bed of black rice! The Rombauer Chard is a perfect pairing by the way…Most importantly….we’ll be going back~Great job Chef!!! Thank you

Our server Jessica was very pleasant and we enjoyed talking with her. Rodrigo was also very pleasant. We are locals and it was our first visit. It was my husband’s birthday and the complimentary dessert was very much appreciated. We will be back again for sure! Thank you, Kristin Oleksy

Basil is our go-to place. Always consistent. Great menu. Welcoming and hospitable. We've never had a bad meal and every time we take guests they have a wonderful experience.

Wow, wow, wow! The sunset was spectacular. The service was excellent. The food was Michelin star worthy, for sure. The prices, though very high, were well worth a very special experience. Overall, a perfect Christmas dining experience. Hoping to stay a couple of nights this summer. Thank you!
