California Coastal Cuisine - with three dining environments that are anchored by a central, experiential oyster bar and live-fire kitchen. The menu is fresh, local, simple and high quality.

The good oysters are fantastic but pricey 3.25 per oyster, grilled octopus, one of the best Iâve ever had perfectly grilled and seasoned. The pork chop thick juicy, very good. Now the bad had a $45 veggie pasta special that was very poorly seasoned, couldnât eat it, no one at our table liked it. The service was very slow and unattentive.We were served apps with no plates, had to wait 20 min. to order drinks and they were 1/4 full, there were plenty of bodies around, just not our table I guess, pricey, but anything from the wood grill worth it.

Great place to get a good beer on tap at a reasonable price. We had black stout and 1066. Both were delicious. The calamari appetizer was not so great. Service was good. It's a very cool place. This was our second time there. First time we only ordered beers.
3. The General Sports Bar
We are a sports bar in the heart of the Dunes Shopping Center Marina, located inside Dametra Fresh Mediterranean. We have a full bar and 12 beers on tap. Happy Hour Specials as well as daily specials available.

The General Sports Bar is quite unique with all the Fort Ord memorabilia. They have a bar menu plus you can order from Dametra's. Friendly and fun.
