"One of Carmel's “most romantic” destinations, this “excellent” spot offers “beautifully presented” French-Italian fare in “many small dining rooms”, including one with a table from France where Vincent van Gogh took his meals; those on a “date night” can ask the “charming” staff for seating in the “beautiful inner courtyard.” One of the longest-running restaurants in Carmel, Casanova boasts a well-earned reputation as an intimate and romantic dining destination.

"Fisherman's Wharf is lined with seafood restaurants ranging from casual, open-air clam bars, to formal indoor dining with views of the bay. Along with Cannery Row, Fisherman's Wharf is one of the few areas in Monterey that sells souvenirs, so the restaurants are interspersed with gift shops, jewelry stores, art galleries, and candy shops. Whale watching tours and fishing trips leave from the wharf, and sea lions often sleep on the pilings, buoys, and moored boats in the bay."
