TusCA Ristorante
TusCA is a casual Tuscan style restaurant with a California influence. TusCA specializes in cheeses, salads, pasta, pizza and oven-baked home style dishes prepared fresh daily in our spectacular show kitchen. Our chef uses only the freshest local ingredients available served in a modern and comfortable setting. TusCA's wine room and cellar features Italian and California wines with a beautiful glass wine display and a hearty selection of world class cheeses. The dining room at TusCA offers delightful views of the spectacular Del Monte golf course, as well as the immaculate show kitchen. The adjoining Fireplace Lounge features Live Jazz on the weekends and comfortable fireside seating. A glass of wine and selection of cheeses in the afternoon or a hot drink and biscotti in the evening, the Fireplace lounge is the perfect place to relax anytime. TusCA also offers a private dining room to accommodate up to twelve guests. Located in the heart of Monterey at the beautiful Hyatt Regency

"$25 for kids 6-12 extremely pricey for kids! Should be more like $10-$15!! I guess the hyatt didn't want to have a lot of family's in for Mother's Day! Because when people seen how much it was for kids I'm sure they opted for someplace more reasonable. My son, niece & nephew literally ate about $2.00 worth of food each! But cost me $75. And 6 adults @ $52 a pop! I understand I chose to go to Tusca for mothers day brunch, Knowing beforehand how much it were for kids. There's no one to blame but myself I made a huge mistake. I wont be making that mistake again! Would only consider going back if the price point for kids were to be made more reasonable! we should have just went to knuckles instead! $500 would have gone a lot further there!"
