It’s always good to find a good meal and good company. In the 1800s, both could be found on Alvarado Street in downtown Monterey. And that is still true today. First opened in 1980 and then relocated to its current location in 1986, Rosine’s has been a well-known and beloved staple for Monterey’s downtown for decades. In its third generation of Culcasi family management, Rosin’es offers staples like beef minestrone soup or homemade lasagna. Plus, it’s impossible to leave without dessert, with a plethora of specialty cream cakes, cheesecakes and specialty cream pies to choose from.
