In the Words of our Monterey Guests

Great hotel with wonderful amenities, including delicious Spanish restaurant Esteban onsite, a day spa, beautiful grounds, well appointed rooms with fireplace & EV charger too boot. Centrally located, walking distance to downtown area with restaurants & bars.

We were seated on their large and open patio on a sunny day. Very cheerful! Our server was fun and helpful. We ordered several tapas dishes which were delicious plus red sangria. I think next time I’ll have a margarita which can be ordered by the pitcher! Great for a group. My favorite dish was the empanadas and my husband’s was the octopus! We’ll go back soon. I forgot to mention their Happy Hour offerings were nice and they also offer $1 oysters on Sundays, I believe. Not sure about other days. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Visited Esteban on Mother's Day for Dinner. Looked like they had a special brunch for Mother's Day. It wasn't busy for dinner. Enjoyed everything. Would get a paella with seafood next time which would probably have more flavor. We really loved the Brussels and I ate all the crust from my son's pizza. The bread was so good. We found street parking easily on a Sunday night.

Our go to restaurant every time we come to Monterey

We love staying at Casa Munras it’s quaint and dog friendly close to downtown lots of great places to explore including all the historic old Monterey houses and museums Great patio spot for tapas in the evening

Great place for traditional tapas. Definitely recommend.

Very nice atmosphere and great food. Outdoor space is just as nice.

We had a wonderful tapas dinner here while in the Monterey area. We were looking for something light but upscale and this did not disappoint. We got the charcutier board, the shrimp, the calamari, the potatoes as well as some extra bread. The bread is made in house and has green olives in it (quantity like a raisin bread) which was great for dipping in the olive oil/balsamic dip. My favorite was the shrimp which was nice and spicy - 5 to a plate. The board had some lovely spicy sausage and cheese that complimented the sausage and the Spanish ham. Some red sangria went well with the meal. We finished up with some dense flan. We ate out on the patio in the early evening which was lovely - there was a fireplace and multiple small olive trees in pots on the patio. Service was just ok but the the quality of the food more than made up for it. We were content to linger over the food and rub our happy bellies.

Casa Munras is a little jewel in Monterey. While it is somewhat dated looking, it is very clean and well kept. The room was very comfortable and had a little charm to it. (A small gas fireplace, and the decor lends itself to a modern Spanish theme). The staff was friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay here again.

Food was outstanding! Great value for the quality and variety. Loved the bloody mary bar and bottomless mimosas. The service was great!!!
