Nothing was particularly new or out of the park, but everything felt fresh and nicely done. The portions were a little smaller than we expected, though.

Overall, a nice place to try if you're looking for plenty of vegetarian choices in a relaxed setting.

I've seen the blue-and-white Rice & Roots building before, and the name always caught my attention…read more I only wish I had taken a photo of the inside while I was there. It has such a cute, comfortable vibe. I asked Bella for a takeout menu, but they don't have printed ones. Normally, I would have just stood there awkwardly trying to decide what to order and wouldn't have placed in order. Instead, she showed me the menu, and we ended up talking about what a picky eater she is and I am too. She made it easy to figure out what I might actually like. I've had a hard time lately finding food that feels worth the price, let alone finding somewhere I actually want to return to. Rice & Roots is one of those places. I tried the shaken filet mignon and was impressed by the care they took even with my takeout order. It was satisfying, reasonably priced, and something I would happily order again. Bella's customer service will definitely make me a returning guest. She also made me feel comfortable enough to try different things on the menu. Sometimes you find one thing you like and are afraid to try anything else. I don't feel that way here. If I worked in the area, I could easily see myself swinging by for a weekly lunch. I think I've found a new favorite spot.

I couldn't get enough of them. The prices were also very reasonable, especially for being so close to the beach. Great food, great location, and a place we'll continue coming back to.

So I was driving down to Monterey from Sacramento for a quick little 36 hour golfing trip.When I…read morearrived in Monterey,I was starving so I quickly jumped on Yelp and found the closest breakfast burrito spot I could find-That's when I found 3 Mundos Sandwich Shop on Fremont Street,which is a sandwich shop that also makes breakfast burritos. When we arrived they had a small parking lot but busy because they do a lot of Door Dash and Uber Eats business. Once inside I took a quick look at the menu and saw they had breakfast burritos of either Chorizo-Sausage-Ham-Bacon or Veggie. I chose Chorizo breakfast burrito($10.39) The shop is run by the owner-he was the cashier and the cook. In talking to him,he was telling me that his family owns multiple Mexican small shops like this in the Juarez Mexico area and El Paso Texas area.Says that all the shops use the same recipe for their hot sauce that is served with the burritos. Once the burrito arrived,it was both heavy and warm.Once I cut it open,I was able to appreciate the craftsmanship of this burrito in all its chorizo,egg,potato and cheese glory-it was beautiful. As pretty as it was though,it tasted even better,I had planned on only eating half of it as I had a tee time in less than an hour but one bite led to another and then it was gone. I've had many breakfast burritos in my day and as unexpected as this is to say,this may have been the best breakfast burrito I've ever had. Also the aforementioned family-recipe hot sauce that came with the burrito was so spicy yet so tasty--perfect combo to a perfect burrito. In closing,if you ever find yourself in the Monterey area and you want to treat yourself to some upper echelon breakfast burritos-do yourself a favor and stop at 3 Mundos sandwich shop-a top tier food experience awaits.

We didn't order anything mind-blowing (salads, apps,) but the pretzels were inhaled, and the cheese pizza was "the best" my teen son had ever had, and giant enough that he needed to take it home.

She was working at the nearby Timber Fire (Big Sur) & needed a hearty meal before returning to her hotel for the night. She had one of the lamb wraps with a salad.

I wasn't very hungry & don't usually eat alot of animal products, so I opted for the kids' cheese pizza with fresh olives. It was pretty bad. The olives weren't the best kind for cheesy pizza -- too flavorful & competed with the pizza. The crust was awful -- thick & flavorless. The cheese -- too much & boring. My dinner was a bust. My small Diet Coke was perfect. I won't return, but if you're the kinda person who loves Mediterranean-style wraps, this is your place!!
