Domenico's On the Wharf

Sicilian history runs deep through the Mercurio family legacy, and those honored traditions form the foundation for a unique Monterey dining experience by the bay. Domenico’s on the Wharf serves up the area’s freshest sustainable seafood with a special pride that reaches back more than 60 years. From the bountiful Mediterranean to our beautiful Monterey Bay, the 1950s represented a journey around the globe for family patriarch, Jean Mercurio, and his five brothers. This area became home for their commercial fishing business and a successful base for their pursuit of each season’s catch. Jean’s sons, Dominic and Sam, grew up on the wharfs and inherited their father’s love for the open water. Today, the family’s fishing operations extend from home port and local waters up to the wilds of Alaska.
