Estéban Restaurant - Double dated w the in-laws

Double dated w the in-laws on 7.1.23 . Funny thing is hubby had always wanted to try this place and I always said NO, but finally I gave in . We ordered the Paella while we waited for our table because it takes 45mins . The Octopus was awesome perfectly seasoned and cooked and not rubbery. We ordered 4 dishes and all were great ! The server was awesome (Hispanic woman her name started with Lis... or Lid.. sorry I'm bad w names ) would definitely dine here again.

A Hidden Oasis in the Heart of Monterey

A Hidden Oasis in the Heart of Monterey I recently had the pleasure of staying at Casa Munras Garden Hotel & Spa during my visit to Monterey, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I stepped foot on the property, I knew I was in for a memorable experience. The hotel's location is simply unbeatable. Nestled in the heart of Monterey, it offers easy access to the vibrant downtown area, renowned attractions like Cannery Row and Fisherman's Wharf, and the breathtaking beauty of the California coast. Whether you're a history buff, a nature lover, or simply seeking relaxation, Casa Munras Garden Hotel & Spa puts everything at your fingertips. The staff at Casa Munras went above and beyond to ensure my stay was exceptional. From the warm welcome at check-in to the attentive service throughout my visit, their commitment to hospitality was evident at every turn. Every member of the team was friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely dedicated to making my stay memorable. The accommodations were nothing short of superb. My room was tastefully decorated, impeccably clean, and exuded a sense of tranquility. The comfortable bed, luxurious linens, and thoughtful amenities provided a true haven after a long day of exploration. I especially loved the lush garden views from my window, which added a touch of serenity to my stay. One of the highlights of my visit was indulging in the spa located directly accross hotel lobby. The skilled therapists provided a blissful escape, leaving me feeling rejuvenated and pampered. The spa itself was an oasis of calmness, with its serene ambiance and expertly designed treatment rooms. I highly recommend treating yourself to a spa experience during your stay. The on-site restaurant, Estéban, was a culinary delight. The menu showcased a fusion of Mediterranean and Spanish flavors, and each dish was a masterpiece. The attentive waitstaff, inviting atmosphere, and delectable cuisine made every dining experience a true pleasure. I loved the papas brava and sangria Overall, Casa Munras Garden Hotel & Spa is a hidden gem that offers a perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and convenience. Whether you're visiting Monterey for business or pleasure, this charming establishment will exceed your expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend Casa Munras to anyone seeking a memorable stay in this beautiful coastal town.

Estéban Restaurant - Ambiance is spacious

Ambiance is spacious, airy, cool and the tables are spaced well apart. They've got a nice bar and clean restrooms with a cozy waiting area. Well staffed and quick with service. Food and drink was wonderful! We tried the Octopus (SO good and tender), a fish dish, and a couple of their vegetarian options. All were wonderful, flavor, with fresh ingredients. Will definitely be coming here again and I recommend that everyone try this restaurant once! As a Monterey local, I assumed that Esteban was only open to their partnered hotel Casa Munras. But you absolutely can enjoy a meal here without being a guest - and I highly reccommend you do! I would put Esteban up there with the Grotto, Sardine Factory, and Whaling Station as a few of the top places to try when in Monterey. Happy to find a new spot to frequent.

Exceeded Expectations!

What an absolutely pleasant surprise! It’s always a little anxiety provoking to reserve in line sight unseen but this exceeded my expectations! From the beautiful reception area with a cozy fireplace to the pool (I was the only person there one day), to the beautiful rooms and super comfy bed! It was perfection! I will definitely stay again !

Estéban Restaurant - Elegant, comfortable, welcoming ambience

Elegant, comfortable, welcoming ambience paying respect to Spanish California and delicious, fresh Spanish-Californian-Mediterranean flavors make this a winning restaurant. We appreciated the friendly and hard-working staff. The dishes were suffused with harmonious flavor such as an incredible watermelon gazpacho with herb oil and chocolate mint from the Casa Munras garden.
