- JMJoeMCalifornia Central Coast •2 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoWe thoroughly enjoyed dining at CH. Our reservation was approximately 30 minutes wait time. I would rather not wait that long but I know this time of year can be busy, and it was. We enjoy every bite of our dinner. I would mention that there is too much ice in the mojito and not enough ‘drink’. But very good. Our server, Alissa, is a real pleasure! We’d love to have her for every dining experience at CH!More infoChart House Restaurant - MontereyPrice: Moderate• Seafood• Monterey•4.5
