Estéban Restaurant - My friend and I had the Wagyu beef

My friend and I had the Wagyu beef and it was delicious. Our desserts were also outstanding. Prices for dinner were acceptable, and the service was topnotch. I would definitely return.

Estéban Restaurant - This place is truly remarkable

This place is truly remarkable. The octopus was a combination of soft and crispy. Incredible. The shrimps were amazing. Hamachi crido was a mind-blowing sensory adventure - flavor, texture, presentation. Wow. Pure love. Good selection of wines. Super well thought out menu. Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5

Best in the area

We booked 2 rooms, one was a king room and the other had 2 queens. I would say the rooms are on the smaller side which is not unusual for the area. The rooms are impeccably clean with very nice toiletries, much appreciated after a day of sight seeing. Parking was easy enough. I did not have a meal at the restaurant on site. I did not use the heated pool but saw many guests enjoying it. The hotel location was close to restaurants with different options for dining including a chipotle. I would 100% recommend this hotel without hesitation.

A gastronomic triumph!

Wow! My husband and I had tapas for dinner two nights out of three during our short visit to Monterey. Outstanding! The flavors really wake up your taste buds without being too spicy and could not have been better. Highly recommended: Empanadas, croquetas de jamon, roasted esparragos, Westholme wagyu bavette, and crema catalana. Oh, yum! All the employees we interfaced with were helpful, friendly, and showed a passion for their work. Bravo, Esteban!

Awesome greeting.

The hotel staff was excellent. Every need was met immediately and with a smile. I am especially appreciative of Henna for her welcoming smile and presence. I am grateful for the staff granting my request of addition furniture, it made our stay more comfortable and fun. A great place to stay!!!

Estéban Restaurant - Classical Coastal California, Away from the Tourist Spots!

Amazing Food Away from the Tourist Spots. Chef Ben Hillan and Host Elimar Acosta are out to please the most Epicurean palette. Esteban offers a wide array of Spanish Tapas and Mains. Having stayed at Casa Munras Garden Hotel and Spa, a quintessential Old World California Coastal Inn for 4 nights, I have tried many items on the menu and everyone has been outstanding. The service is first class and food is 10 out of 10! Highly Recommend!

Quintessential California Historic Inn

A historic Inn and location a short walk from the tourist sites and "must see experiences" of the world famous Cannery Row and Fisherman's Wharf! Outstanding Staff starting with John R. at check-in to Judy in Housekeeping, and the amazing team lead by Elimar and Chef Ben in Esteban Restaurant, the entire staff is outgoing and friendly. After 5 nights here...its hard to leave!
