Revitalization of the Carmel Grill was inspired by the requests of our membership for diverse dining experiences. An extensive strategic planning and design process thoroughly informed this reinvention of the member dining areas. It was clearly recognized that a true reflection of the many ways to enjoy the Carmel lifestyle includes providing a daily slate of multiple dining options.
Honoring the year of our founding, the Nineteen Forty-Seven Grill offers a spacious venue for members to dine casually indoors and out. Since 1947 dining at Carmel has been a focal point for sharing goodwill and fellowship among members of all ages. Now these charming sun-drenched rooms and refurbished veranda extend a warm and welcoming legacy to current and future generations.
From the bright, roomy interior to the beautifully refurbished veranda, this fun venue offers an informal setting for lunch, dinner or even a quick bite following golf or tennis. Two spacious rooms flow to the gracious outdoor veranda in this vibrant member dining venue. The dedicated buffet space offers both innovations and old favorites, including an everyday upscale salad buffet at lunch and themed dinner buffets throughout the week. The completely refurbished veranda allows outdoor dining at its most comfortable and refreshing. Veranda enhancements include new furnishings, added heaters, and a smart new configuration providing winning views for every diner. The menu at Carmel’s new Nineteen Forty-Seven Grill focuses on fresh, local, and high-quality ingredients that allow distinctive choices for all palates. Everything from house-made flatbreads and gourmet burgers to signature steaks and fresh seafood are regular offerings.
