Passionfish -- Pacific Grove, CA

I like to stop in every time I'm near Monterey. Great food, big wine list that is about $5 over retail, and a firm belief in sustainable food practices.

Passionfish offers a unique California dining experience with serious food and wine in a fun and casual atmosphere. The ever-changing menu features the freshest, sustainable seafood, slow-cooked meats, organic greens and delectable desserts, all complemented by an award winning wine list priced well below what you've come to expect.
