what's the most you spent on a bottle?

Wonders...

Restaurants on The Monterey Peninsula??? That's a tough one as I only have so much time to respond and there is more great dining per square mile around here than most anywhere I've been. If my wife told me she had a babysitter for the kids and we were going to any of the following, I'm always a happy camper.

For Italian, I'd recommend...
Mondo's (Carmel)
Cafe Napoli (Carmel)
Joe Rombi's (Pacific Grove)

Mediterranean Cuisine (Various)
Fandango (Pacific Grove, very good wine list)
Casanova's (Carmel with Great Wine List)
Marinus @ Bernardus Winery/Lodge (Carmel Valley ... very pricey)
Peppoli's (Spanish Bay Resort in Pebble Beach)

Steaks and Seafood
The Whaling Station (Cannery Row in Monterey)
Stillwater Bar & Grill (Pebble Beach Lodge over looking the 18th Green and Stillwater Cove)
The Chophouse (Carmel)

Honesly, I could go on and on and on but you can't go wrong with any of the above.
