    Everything was wonderful - food, wine, ambiance, and especially service. One tiny quibble was that they did not dumb the table between dinner and dessert, but maybe they were slightly understaffed that night. Our server was otherwise perfectly attentive and knowledgeable!

    Great spot in Pacific Grove. Right on the main street among other restaurants, bars and inns. Menu has options ranging from salads, soups, seafood, pastas / carbs, and proteins. And the dessert menu is top notch. We ordered the duck pate, octopus, mussels, duck breast and pasta special which was a spaghetti bolognese with lobster and scallops. Everything was well made, good size portions, and very delicious. This is a really good neighborhood bistro with top notch service. Must go for any visitors and the locals in PG are very lucky to have the Spotted Duck.
