    Anton & Michel has been a must for dinner on every trip to Carmel over the last 30+ years. The quality continues to be excellent on all fronts! You will not go wrong with any dish. The service beats any rival in town. And, the bartender is an expert when it comes to making my martini. We look forward to our next visit. This restaurant has my highest recommendation...
