We ate breakfast here twice as we bought the breakfast credit. The first morning, we had the Quail omellette and butter milk pancakes. Both were really very good and filling. The next morning, we had 2 eggs, and the avocado toast. Both were good. Both days, we had a window table over looking the lake. Our server both days, Salomon was excellent!

For hotel breakfast places, this is one of the best I’ve been too. Preparation is like a standalone restaurant than hotel dining. Portions are med/large, and coffee is dark brewed. View of the small pond adds to the dining experience. Highly recommend eating here, prices are fairly reasonable.

When I made a reservation at Covey Grill, I did so out of convenience as we were arriving to The Quail lodge late and I thought dinner at the hotel would be best after a long travel day. My family and I arrived to the restaurant at our reserved time and were seated immediately. The hostess even provided us the option to sit inside or outside on the deck. We opted for an indoor window seat. We began with the ahi grade tuna and satsuma starter. It was delcious. The tuna was so fresh. My husband and I each ordered the halibut market fish for the evening. The fish was prepared nicely and served with mashed butternut squash and asparagus. Our boys enjoyed their Shirley Temples, hot dogs and French fries. I must say the French fries were legit. We were impressed by the service provided and the quality of the dishes served. While we were disappointed to find out the restaurant would not be open for the regular menu the remainder of our stay, we were able to try their three course menu night via room service the final night of our stay. Be sure to check the days and times of operation and book a reservation as you will not be disappointed. Covey Grill is not your typical hotel restaurant.

Very nice setting at the pond inside the quail lodge. Service may have been short staffed, still very pleasant, and good food.

What a wonderful restaurant that perfectly complements the lodge as well as the golf course. The interior gives this Restoration Hardware vibe with luxe furniture with class. It really feels cozy yet modern.
The issue is with the food. We went in for breakfast. The food comes out visually fancy but the brioche French toast literally had no soul. No crunch. No airy softness. It looked grat. But literally just sugar-bread. Massive disappointment compared to the utensils that were used to cut them. The sunnyside up eggs too were overcooked on the bottom. No different than IHOP.
I’m not sure how other meals are but the breakfast I had here was practically IHOP caliber served in a beautiful atmosphere. And for that, you pay more than double the price.
Covery Grill has so much going for itself. Just that the food can’t keep up with the vision.

We stayed in the Quail Lodge and tried their breakfast and dinner in Covey Grill. Very good food and nice environment to stay and enjoy. Absolutely a gem in the Carmel valley!

Review based on ordering take out whole staying at the quail. Decently priced for a hotel restaurant and the food was very good, although the side salads are really laughable, it’s a few measly pieces of lettuce and some tomatoes. But the omelettes, breakfast sandwiches and french toast are very good. It’s nice to have a tasty place to order from and to enjoy food in your room

We had a wonderful seat at the window over looking the lake & all of the Christmas lights. We shared the peppercorn rib-eye with the baked mac-n-cheese & glazed brussel sprouts. All are very tasty! The bar service was incredible, and both bartenders had a lot of creativity & talent with making the cocktails.

The service here was excellent and it was fun to sit cozily under the heater and watch all the different bird species splashing around on the pond. The egg sandwich was nothing too too special but quite good nonetheless.

For apps ordered the endive salad and tuna. Beautiful presentation and so delicious! Michelin rated. For dinner had the branzino which was amazing.
The food was outstanding. The servers need some training. A warmer welcome and better walk thru their favorites on the menu and some conversation. It was very transactional for this resort setting. But that wouldn’t keep me from coming back again and recommending.
