As the warm days of summer ease into the golden tones of early autumn, the coastal charm of Monterey takes on a new kind of magic. There's a crispness in the air, the sun sets just a bit earlier, and the appetite leans toward something more comforting.
At Tarpy's, the arrival of fall means a subtle but satisfying shift--from chilled roses and light fare to fireside flavors, slow-cooked classics, and warm, inviting cocktails.
