PEBBLE BEACH RESTAURANT  Roy’s

2700 17-Mile Dr, Pebble Beach | 647-7423

Tender Szechuan baby back pork ribs, macadamia-crusted mahi mahi, sizzling blackened ahi, the ocean-fresh Hawaiian-style ceviche known as pokethese are Chef Roy Yamaguchi’s gifts to us. He was among the first to bring them to these shores, and to this day he is among the handful of chefs who really make them come alive. There’s a lot of abused mahi mahi out there in foodland, but Roy’s reminds us why Pacific Rim fever caught on.
