   Have been dining here on and off for over 30 years. This time we were under whelmed. Maybe because the server seemed disinterested. Not very busy so we were placed in the dining room near the bar area. Doubt we will be back

   This was our third visit to this legendary place! This time celebrating my birthday but the treatment this time was as good as our prior visits. The bar staff were awesome, Jen and Christian were awesome throughout our dinner service and the tour of their amazing Tavern on The Green gazebo and wine cellar was an off the hook experience. Thank you to everyone at the Sardine Factory for making my birthday celebration such a memorable evening. We will see y’all whenever we’re within 100 miles of this amazingly historic place!!

   An absolute 1st class operation from start to finish. A friendly greeting from the stunning beautiful young lady at the hostess desk to the wait staff (Evan and Connor) and everyone in between. I am a big fan of sand dabs and I can say, these were the best I've ever had. My wife had the wild caught salmon and it was equally top level. Glad to see this place is still going strong with an emphasis on quality and class. This is probably our 4th time in as many years and it hasn't disappointed. Thanks, all. See you again, soon.

   This restaurant is now on my favorites list. Everything was superb, from the service to the ambiance to the food and drinks. They even gave me a complimentary birthday cake! I just wish it was closer to me so that I can go more often.

   We had such a wonderful experience. We were celebrating our wedding anniversary and the staff made us feel special. The food was impeccable. We had the Chilean sea bass, prime rib and lobster tail. Cocktails were great too. Would definitely come back.

   I had very nice dinner on my business trip to Monterey. Jennifer was very professional and friendly, food was excellent and atmosphere was very nice. Outstanding decorations inside. Would be perfect for romantic dinner as well. Highly recommend.
