About Big Fish Grill
Serving the Freshest Seafood. For more than one hundred years, fishing has been a vital part of Monterey’s economy. Monterey’s historic Fisherman’s Wharf with its colorful shops, seafood markets, and flavorful restaurants, is a reflection of that history. The Big Fish Grill celebrates Monterey’s fishing tradition and enjoys the Wharf's most expansive, panoramic views of the working harbor. We are open for lunch, brunch, and dinner, or stop by and enjoy a cocktail and our stunning views at the restaurant’s bar and lounge. Our ambiance is casual California and it’s suitable for visitors of all ages. Stop by and see for yourself. You’ll be glad you did. Buon Appetito!
