    Calamari and Fry basket my 11&14 yr old daughters shared.

    Awesome Classic burger with fries was a good, juicy, and cooked just right. The calamari and fry combo was delicious and perfect for my kids

    Some of the best burgers I have every had. Nice staff and great location near the Aquarium with outdoor seating.

    I have to say I can see why the rating for this restaurant is mediocre. I'm not sure when they acquired the building, but from the looks of the floor, it looks horrendous (see photo). The customer service wasn't friendliest, but also wasn't rudest either. I decided to sit inside the dining room and the table was really sticky. The chairs are mismatched and so are the booths. it's obvious they try to make the restaurant to be a "trendy" restaurants/diner. $$22 for fish and chips and five dollars for soda... I decided to choose one of the burgers. I know why they charged extra it's because they are literally next-door to the Monterey Bay aquarium where they can charge extra because of tourist. If tourist can go a block down the road, they can get the same, probably even better quality, fish and chips at a cheaper price. I ordered their Hawaiian burger. If you don't mind extremely well done hamburger with an unripened pineapple, enjoy. Originally, I was going to give this place three star rating, however, due to everything I had mentioned above, I'm lowering this place with two star rating. After giving the 10% tip, I'm regretting that decision. Quality of service: C Quality of food: D Price: $$ Recommendation: walk about a block or two from the aquarium For better quality burgers, and even cheaper price.

    Empty restaurant during busy hours.

    - Owner is immensely rude and immature. - He price gouges you for poor service. - The place smelled like mold and mildew. Message to the owner: - You obviously don't know how to run a business, and the many negative reviews is pointing that out to you. - You wanted to run a business, boss a few employees and not be bored at home. Here is a free advice for you: Sell the establishment, make your money back, and walk away. This location deserves better than you ruining the experience for the general public. This advice was brought to you without a $10 minimum credit card charge for a soda :)

    Definitely a tourist trap and should have known to go elsewhere but my friend and I were hungry and he wanted a burger. This was one of the spots that came up that served burgers so off we went. I ordered the fish and chips, and this dish came with three of the saddest child-sized palms of fillets that seemed to have been previously frozen. The fries, while crispy, were dry and needed ketchup just to get through them. Even more embarrassing, this place gave me a lemon wedge that was practically dry. When I squeezed it, only seeds and a couple drops of juice came out. I had to pay ~$27 for just that small basket of food while my friend paid a good amount of money for his burger and fries.

    Total for basket of calamaris and basket of garlic fries was $32. Was expecting the basket to be filled, kinda skimpy

    Classic burger and clam chowder
    Shane Z.

    Cute spot by the ocean, we ate outside. The food was amazing, I had the classic burger and my boyfriend had the clam chowder. I loved the design and the place was clean, food came out fast. 10/10 would come again. Thank you!

    Archies... This place used to be so much better!!! Back in the day this was pretty much my go to spot for lunch. Either it was the change of owners... Or just their quality took a huge dump. The calamari sandwich was ok... That was the ONLY highlight for today's visit. The lettuce on my Fiancee's sandwich was wilted and black... The ketchup bottle was all kinds of dirty. There was mold in the cup for water. The guy at the counter seemed in a bad mood. Like we were bothering him. I hate to see what was a great place turn into a dump. I even saw people walk in and even said... NOPE! and walked out. NEVER going back! The tin cannery is pretty much shutting down... Just cut the losses and take Archie's with the sinking ship. #monterey #canneryrow #localbusiness #gross #dirty #mold

    I've been meaning to visit here for ages, glad I finally did. I'm a huge fan of this place…read more The vibe is lively and chill. Service is lovely. Solid selections of beverages. I had a pizza with non-dairy cheese. The crust was outstanding, with a great chew, just-right char, some of the better thin-crust pizza I've had. My one constructive suggestion is they could up their non-dairy cheese game. The binders in standard non-dairy cheese have a subpar texture when they melt. Miyoko's makes a fabulous cashew-based mozzarella pizza cheese that eschews binders and is a dense liquid rather than solid, and it's a remarkably good substitute for real mozzarella di bufala. Local chain Pizza My Heart uses it, and I wish more restaurants did, and I'm on a one-man mission to nudge them to at least consider it. But either way, I'll be back, as the Terminator famously said.

The service was great, you order and pay at the bar before the food is brought to you. The pizzas did take a bit to come out, but when they did, they were amazing! The legend pizza was delicious, with a tasty hot honey flavor. We paired this with the homemade ranch, which was okay -- it kind of reminded us of sour cream. The crust was also a bit flimsy by the time we got to the last piece. The pesto artichoke pizza was our favorite, so refreshing and flavorful! The lemon on it was great without being overpowering. My boyfriend also looooved his beer, the PG Passion Sour! Definitely recommend for anyone in the area!!

The bottom floor is where the bathrooms and real golf courses are, but it's a lot more secluded.

They also gave us recs on what was open late at night. Their cocktails were yummy and tasted like described on the menu! The John Daly tasted more sweeter than I anticipated as it came with simple syrup, vodka, and lemon juice. Both were still great choices. We love a lil bev to sip onnnnn.

The new ownership is doing an awesome job of getting the locals' input and providing a variety of activities for everyone. From open mic and live music to themed nights like Y2K Night, Magic Hunks, and Burlesque, there's always something happening -- even if some events aren't totally my thing, I love that there's truly something for everyone. The bartenders I've met so far -- Chris, Dan, Andrew, Kyle, Kenzie, Hunter(i think there's two?), Scott and Arie -- know exactly how to keep the crowd happy and the party going. Huge shoutout to the manager, Frank (aka DJ Edison Tesla), and the bouncers for keeping the vibes high, the crowd contained, and always anticipating any trouble to keep everyone safe. Their dog-friendly patio with fire pits -- and the fact that they're open all day -- is perfect for bringing your pup, grabbing a drink, and hanging out! The Monterey bike path from Lovers Point to Casa Verde runs right past the Salty Seal, try it out for your next hot girl walk The management team and owners are doing an amazing job of making sure they really give the people what they want, and you can feel the forward momentum & energy every time you walk in. If you're looking for a place that actually listens to its crowd and brings the energy every day & night, The Salty Seal is it.
