Originally had a reservation for 20 but it climbed to 34. They quickly set up for additional settings. We had 3 sets of tables and we ate outdoors with heaters. They have seafood and steak which the group ordered. Some ordered the burger and ahi tuna sandwiches. We also had appetizers of calamari, crab cakes and fried artichoke. They had nice drinks as well with a well stocked bar. We got desserts too, creme brulee was popular as well as bread pudding a la mode. Service was excellent.

Monterey Bay Calamari
It was one of the most delicious places I've ever eaten at, and the inside atmosphere was more than what I expected. On the outside, it could be a bit deceiving, almost looking as a whole in the wall place in my opinion, but the inside is amazing, a place I'd definitely recommend going out on a date too. Me and my wife came here for our anniversary, and it was definitely the best choice. My wife had chicken, which was absolutely juicy, and I had a burger, which was cooked to absolute perfection. Also, the price for the meals definitely was less than you'd expect it to be. I definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to eat out nice for a reasonable price! The last thing I do admit parking can be tough as the parking lot is kind of small but worth it if you can find a spot to stay.

For my birthday I ordered prime rib. It was perfect. The calamari appetizer was a cut above any I've had. Great service and a gratis dessert for me. Very nice place for a special day.

We had a terrible meal and service experience at Cafe Cruz not long ago for lunch. But we always like to give a place a second (possibly last) shot. I’m so glad that we did! We went for dinner tonight and the food and service could not have been better. Our drinks were delivered to our table minutes from ordering them. The bread was soft and delicious and the calamari was good as well. We both ordered the filet, medium rare which were cooked perfectly. Our server was very kind and attentive, refilling my iced tea before I even needed to ask. It was a wonderful experience. We will certainly be back.

If you come, make reservations for the outdoor patio. Heaters galore and beautiful ambiance. Food was great. We had the seafood bouillabaisse and the fish taco salad. The bouillabaisse was a tad salty but soo good. Seafood salad was great.

Great place. Amazing food and wonderful service. Went on a Tuesday night at 6 with my aunt. Busy place even for a weeknight. Reservation recommended. Great for families, small parties, and solo dinners. Delicious food. Will definitely be back.
