Our Favorite Restaurants

Hog's Breath Inn

San Carlos St, Carmel-By-The-Sea, CA 93921

Ari and I love coming here for all of the fireplaces and Clint Eastwood decor. Ari's favorite dish is the chicken alfredo.

The Bench

1700 17 Mile Dr, Pebble Beach, CA 93953

You can request a firetable overlooking the golf course and ocean. Make a reservation ahead of time - it's worth it for the view!

Mediterranean Halal Market

825 Hamilton Ave, Seaside, CA 93955

If you're driving through Seaside, this is Ari's favorite hidden stop to chat with the market/deli owner and order a shawarma wrap.

Wagon Wheel

7156 Carmel Valley Rd, Carmel-By-The-Sea, CA 93923

If you venture into Carmel Valley for a hike or wine tasting, this is a fun country diner with super friendly staff.

Alta Bakery

502 Munras Ave, Monterey, CA 93940

The BEST garden bakery. If you want to enjoy your coffee and pastry outside, this is THE garden. It's super popular, so plan accordingly.
