Walking in you get hit with the strong smell of a fish market. We got a variety of items and was not impressed. They play it very safe with their seasoning on their fish and prawns, it might not even have any salt. The quality is there but the lack of seasoning makes everything taste a little bland. We did like the chips, coleslaw, and rockfish tacos. I would recommend the tacos if you’re looking for something more seasoned/flavorful. Something concerning I saw was the dead lobster in the tank near the front. I would recommend to the owners to clean the tank at your earliest convenience. Overall, I think it’s a decent spot with okay prices. Bon appetite!

If you're looking for a great spot that won't break the bank like some of the places closer to Cannery Row, Sea Harvest is a fantastic choice. We stopped by for a quick snack and ordered a cup of their clam chowder along with some garlic bread. Both were delicious! The garlic bread was perfectly crispy with a nice sprinkle of cheese, and it paired perfectly with the creamy chowder. Make sure to grab a seat on the outside back patio! It’s such a quaint, relaxing spot to enjoy your food. Highly recommend it for a quick, affordable, and tasty bite.

I was very excited to try this place - read rave reviews. Waited for my sister to visit from out of town so we could take her. The place was packed and vibrant (we went for dinner on New Year’s Day). Service was great and efficient. We ordered the halibut and chips and the fried calamari. Food came out hot and fast, and looked really good. The calamari was tender and delicious. The garlic bread was just right. The fish - the halibut we paid $28 + tax for - was the consistency of chicken. It was profoundly overcooked. I get it - the place was super busy. But for the price you pay for the halibut, that’s just insane that the fish could be that overcooked. Since it was slammed, we did not take the food back. Maybe we should’ve. The batter was nothing to write home about, either, but forgiva

If you want an authentic Monterey experience and avoid all of the tourist restaurants eat here. The fish is caught fresh daily and meals while simple will be some of the best meals you’ve have ever tasted. I had the rock fish. I can still taste the fish melting on my mouth.

Wow. I was hesitant to go to this place at first but I’m so glad we did. The food was 10/10, we started eating before I was able to get pictures because we were pretty starving after a day at the aquarium but it was all exquisite. The fish for the fish and chips was crispy and cooked to perfection. The clam chowder bread bowl was literally overflowing with clam chowder and the bread was actually soft, usually when I get bread bowls the clam chowder only fills up 3/4 of the bowl and the bread is hard as a rock. The cocktail shrimp was huge, literally everything we all ordered was great and fairly priced. I will say the brownies left something to be desired, they were pretty crumbly and not very sweet. Overall would absolutely recommend coming here and I will be back.
