On Fishermans Wharf
Crab House sits at 60 Fishermans Wharf #1, Monterey, CA 93940. The address places the restaurant on the wharf, where the setting is part of the visit from the start.
It is a bilevel seafood restaurant. The two levels shape how the room is read and how diners move through it. One floor leads into the next, so the space feels built for a steady flow of tables rather than a single open dining room. That layout suits a place where guests come in for a sit-down meal, settle in, and stay for the full course of lunch or dinner.
The home page gives the restaurant’s place first. See the dinner menu for the dishes served inside that setting.
Bay views, wharf access, and all-day dining in one Monterey spot.
Bay Views and Seating
Monterey Bay views define the room. Tables look toward the water, so the dining area carries the harbor in the background while guests eat.
Outdoor tables add another way to sit. Some diners stay outside for fresh air and a direct view of the bay, while others choose the indoor room and the two-level layout. The restaurant serves breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner, and dessert, so the seating works across the day from the first meal to the last.
Open daily from 11 AM to 9 PM, Crab House keeps a fixed schedule through the week. That makes it simple to plan a late lunch, an early dinner, or a longer stop after time on the wharf.
