This award-winning restaurant is located in the beautiful hills of Carmel Valley's latest luxury resort and spa, Bernardus Lodge. Acclaimed chef, Cal Stamenov, has created cuisine that is distinctively Cal-French and both the menu and the wine list are designed to take you on an epicurean journey that will tempt your palate and keep you wanting more. Chef Cal's creative vision for the restaurant is rooted in simple, yet elegant uses of the local produce and seafood from Monterey County. This includes the use of fresh herbs and vegetables from the chef's garden such as a wide variety of tomatoes indigenous to the Carmel Valley area.
Marinus at Bernardus Lodge resembles an Old World wine country estate and is graced by a dramatic 12-foot wide European fireplace with a raised hearth, offering spectacular views of the garden, majestic pines and nearby California Oaks. An inviting outdoor terrace and fireplace offers guests a relaxed and scenic setting. Stamenov has also created a series of unique cooking classes and food and wine weekend getaways offering guests the opportunity to experience and savor imaginative food accompanied by a selection of Bernardus Wines. Participants learn to prepare traditional dishes and seasonal specialties unique to the restaurant and the area.
While the menu varies on a daily basis, there are a few "hot ticket" items that can't be missed. Try the Local Spot Prawns with Crispy Vegetables as a first course, then, move onto the luscious Portobello Mushroom Soup. As an indulgence course, try the White Truffle Risotto and finally, end with a European Turbot with Bloomsdale Spinach and Porcini Jus.
Wine Spectator magazine awarded Marinus with the "2001 Grand Award" for their generous and balanced wine list that was created to specifically enhance this innovative Wine Country Cuisine. Open daily for breakfast and dinner. For reservations in Marinus at Bernardus Lodge please call 831-658-3550.
