How could you ask for more? The best ice cream, hot fudge and chocolate in the world served on cannery row in Monterey with seating overlooking the ocean. It doesn’t get any better than this. The place is clean, the service spectacular and you have the crashing ocean waves to serenade you while you enjoy your sweet treat. I’ve literally never had a bad ghirardelli sundae but to sit and enjoy it while overlooking the Pacific Ocean just 30 feet away is amazing. Definitely stop here for the delicious ice cream —the amazing ambience is just the cherry on top (yea every bit of that pun was intended). Tell them David sent you…and I promise they’ll give you really weird looks 😃

I go to Monterey often, but this was my first time visiting a chocolate shop. Since we had quite a bit of time left until our dinner reservation time, we decided to have dessert first. I was able to get the Original Fudge Sundae, which my husband chose, really quickly (it was served as soon as we sat down at the table) and wow, it was really sweet. Thanks to this, we had to change our dinner menu. Hahaha

Yum Yum Yum!!! Enjoyed ice cream outside on the patio. Came back 2 days later to pick some chocolate to bring home for a family member. Great place, and staff! So friendly.

Vegan option Now they finallly have this vegan/non dairy ice cream and it’s so good!!!! The one in the plastic cup was a couple of months ago but I was there last week(may 2023) and they were back on serving it in the glass, so exciting! Everyone there is so nice all the time cute sitting area inside as well as outside with ocean view or view to cannery row!

The ice cream seemed a bit over priced... That is until you get a cauldron of it. The sundaes were absolutely delicious. My wife loved the non-dairy fudge sundae. I had the salted caramel and it was great. It was busy so the staff was trying to keep up with the tables. We wound up cleaning one up ourselves to face the ocean. I don't blame the staff, it's on Cannery Row, tourists everywhere, etc. Overall, it was a good time and my wife and I enjoyed ourselves.

I loved this place. My husband stopped by when we were at Cannery Row and it did not disappoint. I for the Treasure Island which is a wan brownie with vanilla ice cream that's topped with hot fudge, whipped cream, almonds and a cherry. My husband got the frozen hot chocolate. He liked it, said it was good and not overly sweet. The place is clean, has an outside sitting area, and the staff was friendly.

The ice cream here is worth trying ! The taste is much different from the chocolate of ghirardelli; The location is good although outside on the oceanfront might be bit crowded! Stand price for ghirardelli so no comments on that .

Took advantage of the non existent line to enjoy a hot fudge sundae. Your sweet tooth will be satisfied. On a scale of 1-5 regarding price, i give this a 5. $15.00 FOR A SUNDAE!???
