    Our favorite place to have dinner. Delicious perfectly prepared food and great service. We enjoy seeing each person that works there when we come. As we left we met a couple from the Midwest coming for the first time Pacific Grove and to the Beach House. We told them we were regulars and so we were confident they would have a wonderful meal while enjoying the view. Well done!

    Alfredo's has to be one of the best Italian restaurants between San Francisco and LA. They have the most amazing fresh burrata and the house made pasta is fabulous. Combined with super burrata appetizers, an excellent wine list and great service makes Alfredo's a wonderful choice for an italian food experience.
