Red House Cafe

Go here!! The food was amazing. Every brunch spot should aspire to be like this restaurant! Fresh ingredients, great flavor, great presentation. The seating outside on the deck was lovely and the staff was even more lovely.

Best banana pancakes!! ..also the Best homemade Cinnamon Rolls!! My wife enjoyed the chilaquiles. Chilaquiles aren't served with chicken underneath. Different but good. Our dogs loved this place. A+++ "we'll be back" .

Probably my favourite place to eat in all of Monterey. Such a quaint, intimate place with amazing customer service and even more delicious food. Hearty ingredients, filling portions. Made with the same love your mom or granda would have put into it :) I regularly get the salmon pizza: refreshing, light, and just the right balance of yummy. I also recent had the lamb chops--talk about savory and satisfying!!! and you HAVE to leave room for dessert. Seriously. If you pass up on it, you will regret it!!!!! My personal favourite is the olallieberry pie, but their cobbler cookies are also amazeballz! Anyway, smaller parties are better, but they have a few tables for larger groups, though I definitely recommend calling in a reservation for that well in advance.

5 out of 5 stars | Great service, Very attentive. Good food, The pancakes were the best part they where very flavorful and fluffy. Clean environment, fresh food and many other different places to sit. This place was dog friendly and allowed my medium size dog to sit down with us. The crab Benedict was very flavorful and fresh. Overall the workers were very nice and sweet to the customers. Would recommend to a friend or family member.

So delicious! Very helpful host and friendly wait staff! Process very reasonable would highly recommend!

You can tell everything is home made. We loved everything. Came back a second time for the calamari, it’s the best we have ever had.

Great place! Get there early or prepare for a wait. The chorizo and egg breakfast was delicious and the coffee was great too. Everyone was friendly, and our glasses were always full.

1st timer for lunch on Friday with Monterey Car week going on ! Service excellent even with the crowds / Crab cakes fabulous ( in my top 3 ) tasted fresh out of the Ocean and very nice Calamari steak sandwich and one of the best Spunky Bloody Marys this side of the Mississippi!

We had a reservation for 7pm and they ran slightly behind. The host politely let us know they didn’t time it right and a lady who I assume was managing the floor at the time, without any complaints or requests from our party comped is some appetizers. We didn't ask - she just did it. I knew immediately as that happened that the food would be good.

Even still, I was floored by the quality of the food. Ordered the salmon. Ended up having one of the best cuts of salmon I have ever had. Cooked amazingly well, and the sides were also outstanding.

This place is a must visit. Worth every minute you wait. You will not be disappointed.

If restaurant staff read this, thank you again for a great meal. You are amazing!

SKIP THIS PLACE IF IT LOOKS BUSY!!!!!!!!!!

I went on a Sunday during Presidents’ Day weekend and the wait list was a MESS. They skipped peoples names. Some how our name was MISSING from the list. They sat us down immediately after we noticed & spoke up. The waiter was friendly BUT got my food order wrong. We had to WAIT longer to get our food because of this mistake. My husband ordered the crab cake Benedict with “medium” poached eggs. I ordered the ham Benedict. They brought out a country eggs breakfast and that is not what I asked for. When they did bring the Benedict’s out they mixed up the “medium” poached eggs and the food was a bit cold. They served our mocha in a bowl not a cup. I’d give the place another try if it was NOT busy BUT definitely skip this place if they are busy! You will NOT get good service!!! You’ve been warned.
