Alvarado on Main is an absolute gem in the heart of Salinas, California! From the moment I walked in, I was captivated by the unique charm of this fully remodeled restaurant, which was once a bank. The historic architecture has been beautifully preserved, blending seamlessly with modern touches to create a warm and inviting atmosphere.

The food was good, and the portions were incredibly generous for the price. Every dish we tried was clearly made with care. The menu offers something for everyone, and the quality is good as well.

What truly made our experience memorable, though, was the staff. The team was friendly, attentive, and genuinely passionate about making sure we had a great time. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Thank you for the attentive and very friendly service from Angelic A. while we visited for lunch earlier this month.   She patiently explained the gluten-free options.  The Art Deco interior (a former bank lobby), with its soaring ceilings, is beautiful.   Well situated at the center of town with easy, on-street parking.   We enjoyed our respective menu options.

Ive been here a couple times. The place is spacious. The decor and interior design is aesthetically pleasing, reminiscent of early 1900s style.

The atmosphere was friendly and welcoming. Our server Isaiah is top-notch. He was talkative, friendly and attentive.

The food and drinks were also pretty good.

Their pizza is not as good as it was when I wrote this review.

Veronica is an amazing server and you'll be lucky to have her. Amazing service and personality!

Beautiful art deco style bar and eatery with vegetarian options. My husband and I always enjoyed going to the Monterey location and we were ecstatic to find out that the establishment had expanded to Downtown Salinas (a little closer to home for us than Monterey). The cauliflower wings were Asian infusion which we haven't experienced before but glad we did! I had the butternut squash tacos that came with 3 salsas and each one was delicious. My husband ordered the Valley pizza which paired wonderfully with their nonalcoholic beer I ordered. A variety of beer on tap including SOURS which are my hubby's favorite style.

I do suggest making a reservation because they're new and quite popular so you may wait a while if you don't have one.

I thought this was Alvarado Street Brewery.I guess they just call it Alvarado on Main, but it is the same place. Dew Drops IPA stopped me dead in my tracks with its superb Dank Hoppy Dispensary taste ( if you know what I mean) Just what my taste buds have been craving. The close second is the Single Cone ( you can also get a flight and choose as many beers that you would like to sample ) Just thought I’d bust out with those first two 5 star ratings about their beer. We did also order food, which was pretty good as well. The grilled artichoke tacos were awesome, the Al Pastor tacos were also a close second and we shared the Caesar Salad as an appetizer. Lots of parking in the back; we’ve never been to Salinas before, but this area of Old Town looked like it would be cool to walk around. We were just passing through for the day so we didn’t get to explore. Go for the brew but especially the “Dew”! Cheers!
