Grasings

In March of 1998 Kurt opened the door to his namesake restaurant: Grasing’s. Kurt revamped Grasing’s in 2010 by constructing a new bar and lounge along with completing a restaurant make-over. The warm hues and contemporary décor in the restaurant and bar give Grasing’s an even more inviting atmosphere, giving it a new look with the same great food and first-rate service to which guests are accustomed. As a restaurant with an impressive contemporary menu, Grasing’s offers the finest coastal cuisine paired with a ‘Wine Spectator’ awarding winning wine list featuring the best California wines. For a true Carmel experience, enjoy dinner on the dog-friendly patio. In an impressive first year Grasing’s received enthusiastic reviews and was voted Best New Restaurant and Best Chef by the readers of Adventures in Dining Magazine. 2000 was the first year Grasing’s won a Wine Spectator Award of Excellence and has received that award from 2000 through 2004. In 2004, Grasing’s was featured in Bon Appétit Magazine’s Best of the Year issue, was awarded Carmel Business Association’s Business of the Year award, and Carmel Magazine proclaimed Grasing’s the Critic’s Choice. In 2005, Grasing’s won its first Wine Spectator Award Best of Award of Excellence and has won that double goblet every year through 2019. In 2007, Grasing’s was awarded Carmel Business Association’s Restaurant of the Year as well as a Celebrated Chef of the Year Award from the American Culinary Federation – Monterey Chapter.
